    yea we are OK. Been giving him a Dream Feed the last few nights as he has been right off his bottles and feeding him at night seems to be the only way he gets a decent amount of milk.

    I never had a GTT just a fasting blood but like I said to the consultant my fasting was always fine it was after food that was the issue and she said she knew that but the 'policy' says just have a fasting. It was 4.7 but gotta have it done annually and watch if it creeps up.
    Also, 99% chance I'll get it again but hey ho!

    I have just blitzed my kitchen FLYLADY style (Pigpen you would be impressed!) God help anyone that puts something on a worktop - I think I've decluttered so much stuff that I have double the worktop space I had this morning!

    I need to do the kitchen and should do it while DH is at work. I have more cupboards full of junk than of actual food or kitchen stuff!

    Amber is off milk now too, but seems to work out over a week. Some days she is lucky if she takes 7oz, 1oz, 3oz, 4oz = 15oz but others she has two full 7oz ontop of that. Thats off milk regardless of if she gets food or not. But letting her hold the bottle is helping. I wish she would take avent bottles though, you can get handles for them.

    these?

    Thanks Jillie, I'll go look in boots this week. With the boys we switched to the soft spouts and handles about 6-8 months so its good that I can do the same with the TT ones. :D
