    Gorgeous pictures KOAG :)

    I think breast shells or a pump would be easiest, but the noise of the pump on one side bothered Molly when she was feeding so I stopped.

    Thanks 3, you're very lovely. Hopefully they'll be here tomorrow :D If you upload your photos to any of the websites like snapfish etc you can edit them into B&W, and most of them have offers on for new customers and all you need's an unused email address to use them. Edit: and some have Quidco :)

    Kindof, just another thought but have you got a decent pump? If you're doing a fair amount of expressing then it would be worth getting one I think. I have the Medela Mini Electric and it is fab
    The fairies may have one of these but not the charger)could be bought from ebay?) it does run on pencil batteries and i thought it was good:D

    I think we may be onto something here. I've just timed myself, and ironed 31 items of mine, OH, J & L in an hour. (not including undies/socks because some people think i'm weird for ironing those!), but it did include school uniforms and OH's uniform with the horrible stiff combats. :)
    And I had the lappy perched on the ironing board so I could keep up with you lot. :o



    Still on photos, does anyone know where I can get digital pics printed in black and white? I googled on Friday, but couldn't find anything. I've got a huge multi pic frame from Matalan, and the pics it came with are in black and white, and I think it looks good so want a pile of my favorite photos printed in b&w.

    You iron those? Please don't tell my OH, I told him they were special non-iron ones :rotfl:. You sound like a champion ironer though!

    B&W photos- we change them to B&W on photoshop then just print them where ever. They look amazing if you leave one item in colour like thisred-flowersNEW.jpg?t=1269256365

    Don't ask me how you do it though, as that is OH's domain but I'm sure the lovely Weezl would help you.

    OK - I must have been having a particularly blonde moment on Friday because i've just gone back into snapfish and found how to change it to black and white straight away. :(

    GISI - that pic looks amazing - I'll have to have a play about.
    Does your OH have the americanised uniform too? With the combats and the stretchy black t-shirt tops? I think OH looks like he's in the Village People in his. :rotfl:

    Yep, he does. They changed over while he was on paternity leave last year. Much easier for washing and ironing though, and I'm informed it's comfier too. It is very American though!

    Does anyone have any tips about what to do with the other breast? like I fed him my right breast but then my left one just totally poured with milk and I couldnt help but think my god what a waste lol

    Hello lovely! Great to see you on here :)

    Congratulations again on the birth of beautiful baby elliot. Great pics :)

    Are you going to post a birth story? I will if you will :D

    about the other boob, can you pop a shield in your bra? They collect a good 3 oz (although that would leave your nip in a lot of milk until you had a free hand to empty it... so I don't want to suggest anything that'd make you sore :()

    yep, I can do that thingie with the roses, no probs. I could probably write a tutorial on how to do it yourself but I'd need my non-baby brain to do that!

    Let me know if you need a hand :)

    I'm sorry I've not shut up this morning but I didn't really post yesterday so I have LOADS to say :p
    That explains why there were only ten pages this morning since Saturday evening. :p
