    Aww Fishcake the only thing rubbish about you is that you've not updated your sig :p try to hold her (what is her name?) as much as possible and get some skin to skin, hopefully that will soothe her and she'll start rooting. I have to tell you that a few of us (only one I can remember is MFD though) got a warm fuzzy feeling when you made it off the ttc list and I'm sooo pleased now you have a lovely baby :D

    EA Can you squeeze any milk out on to your nipple so she gets a taste? maybe she's feeling lazy because when she has a bottle the milk is there instantly :huh:

    I'm watching bringing home baby on discovery home n health, why do they all still look pregnant? my bump turned into a saggy thing the second Ed popped out. (is that not usual? do you all hate me now?)

    Nope, because today, I've actually made an effort for work. We have Russian visitors in all week. So instead of usual jeans and top, I have on dress and tights and proper shoes and everything. And one of the blokes has said "Lost all the baby weight haven't you. I want a go!!!?" Yes Sexual harassment is alive and well in our crappy little Engineering firm. But hey I'll take it as a compliment!:D

    Eta: And No, he won't be having a go either......

    Thats what i have been doing, and dripping some into her mouth to. I hope she isn't getting lazy :D
    I breastfeed more than i bottle feed so hopefully she wont start to prefer the bottle.

    And when i had my shower after i gave birth i looked side on in the mirror and my old bump looked square shaped! :rotfl:

    3, you had a silvercross with the classic chassis didn't you? Similar to the chassis with the big gay pram... I don't half miss the shopping basket on the BGP... All the Oyster reviews recon it's got a big basket but these people have obviously never tried to cram a good fortnights worth of shopping into one...

    Tara, ((hugs)) for you and for S, could DD2 not go and lend a hand?

    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    Has she got anyone else to help? No point you going and risking making anyone else poorly. :(

    Yes, and I still have it in the shed, and it gets brought out whenever I need to buy anything bigger than a creme egg. :rotfl: OH still doesn't understand this, so when he has his week off soon, I might send him up to Somerfield for a fresh food top-up shop, with the Zia. :p

    Oh Fishcake I felt that way too (and I was also very happy when you came off the TTC list). I think it's hard cause when they're that little you're the place where they feel safe so you get all the crying bits - but it's not because you make her cry but because you're the place she gets comfort.

    She had last Wednesday off to do the First Aid course, then took Friday afternoon to help. Has also booked of this Wednesday which is lovely of her. She works in Probation so has to be careful not to get behind!

    do we get points when someone rates our review? I've got 560 points, I'm guessing 20 per useful rating (yes I kno I could just read the site :cool:)
