    How's Andrew doing? (ecxept for stinky poos!)

    I've been spoilt with those EBM poos, haven't I ;) He's doing just fine, on 50-50 mix of EBM and Infatrini at the moment, showing no signs of throwing up the formula but perhaps a little bunged-up as a result of it (hence this morning's stinkiness). He's also beginning to regain ground on the weaning stakes, took some basic purees for the last two days and some weetabix this morning.

    Kindof - I hate condoms too! But no choice as I can't use any hormonal contraception and OH says no to the coil (not sure why!) Sometimes we are naughty and just withdraw but I make sure it's either just after my period or just before as I (naively) figure this is when I am less fertile :o NOT TO BE RECOMMENDED AS THATS HOW JACK CAME ABOUT :rotfl:
    Best not use that method in future then ;) :whistle:

    That's strange OH doesn't want you to use a coil, wouldn;'t see how it would affect him :confused:

    Kindof not sure what else there is really apart from "natural" family planning ie not DTD when you are ovulating!

    Grr baby brain strikes again! :mad: I realised last night that a quote I'd given a lady for an order next week was wrong :o:( I just had to email her to say the actual price is £125 not the £75 I'd told her. I hope she still wants to go ahead with the order as I was counting on that money :(


    Ah, I keep meaning to ask you if you are still doing orders while on ML from work! How are you finding the time to make cakes with a baby?!

    Welcome back MFD :j
    Did you have a nice time? :)

    Lots of new littles babies to drool over but I can't remember much else :o

    Coil - I think it's because its having something put in my womb! *Shrugs* I don't know but I'm not bothered about having one anyway. We are OK as we are for now. :)

    The mini pill does just have progesterone - similar to Depo or implant BUT all 3 still make my boobies MASSIVE even though technically they shouldn't!

    Where does the time go? :think:
