I have no idea why, but my left boob is really full and painful. We've had the same number of feeds today? Hasn't done this in months, obviously. I tried pumping and only got a tiny bit after 20 min, but it still hurrrrrrts. I wonder why??

Susan has beat me to it. Hope it does ease at the night feeds for you.

Boogellyboo and Angelfairy, I may have bought a Pandora bracelet today, it may have already been dispatched and I may be wearing it tomorrow :j

Fattybooboo, I actually lol-ed at your edit!

Jolene, hi and nice to see you over here

Hi Jolene, lovely to have you here! Tell us more about Sophie- feeding, pooing, sleeping etc? How are you enjoying being a Mummy? Am I right in thinking you had a c-section? How are you recovering?

I knew no real life mummies when I had Henry, but now I know tons! Having a baby is a great excuse to meet people since you always have something to talk about. Netmums is good as it has a section where you can meet mummies near you. I've also met some nice people through my local NCT Tea Group.

Hey there,

Well Sophie is my little miracle, never thought I could have children, thought it was going to be just me and hubby for life, but after nearly 8 years of marriage Sophie arrived!

Sophie was born via c-section which was planned right from the start, we tried breastfeeding for a couple of days but she didn't really take to it and then I got ill so we decided to go onto formula feeding which sh etook to brilliantly. We feed her every four hours, if we don't she lets us know she is hungry!:D She can slep up to 6 hours overnight before waking for a feed. She weighed 8lb 4.5oz at birth and now weighs 10lb 14oz!

I always said I wasn't going to dress her in lots of pink, but we given tonnes of pink clothes! So its pink nearly everyday!

Hubby has been brilliant right from the start, he had to everything for her. Which was very weird for him has he has no experience with babies at all! Now I do the majority of Sophie's care because he works, but he takes over on friday and saturday night feeds and during the day to give me a break! Love him!:D

I am surrised how well I have recovered from the section, especially since I got home from the hospital, we were in there nearly a week, started to do my head in!

The wanderer returns!

It's been aaaaaaaaages since I've been on here as my laptop decided it needed a holiday so went on a tour of both my brothers to get fixed, it has been returned this evening.

I am not even going to attempt to catch up, so hello, congratulations, hugs, get well soon, and happy birthday all round.

I had a fab holiday in Devon, the hightlight was meeting Tara, Erin, Ben and Maddy. Katie loved being able to go swimming everyday.

I have missed you all.

Sounds like you've got it sussed, Jolene! I'm glad your hubby is being so supportive, it definitely sounds like you've got a good'un there. I remember when the MW asked my hubby to dress H when we came out of theatre after my (unplanned) cs. Hubby had no clue what to do and put the nappy on back to front, bless him. He's a star now though.

Nice to see you back MDW, I was wondering where you'd got to. Glad your holiday was good.

My fairies have come to publicly apologise to Tia for being thick! I received a parcel this morning and thought 'I recognise that handwriting, it's mine!' I'd posted it to myself :o:rotfl: It's gone back in the post today so should be with you soon.

Wee James now weighs 2lb 13oz so he's managed to put a bit on, their very slowly reintroducing his milk and seeing how he goes :A

I'll try to get on tomorrow but got to go now, really was a flying visit!

Hugs and whatever necessary vibes to everyone else x x

Sorry but I will also admit to laughing at your parcel!

That's great Wee James is putting on weight he's so dinky small though bless him

Haha boogelly I am also a big Take That fan so please still be my friend Ace news about James!!

How do you all get on if you are away from home when it comes to baby's bedtime? We are going to the larmer tree festival next month and Im trying to imagine whether T will settle ok in his pram when he gets tired. U r going to a festival this year too arnt u boo?

ETA Also we have been invited round a friends for the footie this friday but I am considering staying home as I just can imagine T to be a nightmare when he gets tired and we are in someone elses house. Or am I just worrying too much (as usual!!)

We took A to my sister's wedding and he slept in his pram all night inour hotel room, adjacent to the disco! It was loud but he was totally fine.

I bought the dark silver bracelet with this, this, this and 2 of these

I wanted the cupcake charm, and the little alphabet block with A on but both were out of stock on this website and it's here I had the 10% off voucher for. Figured if I was going to use it I may as well make it worth my while lol!

He did have to have a couple of lessons. Especially when it came to feeding, he didn't know how to do it or burp her I had to get the midwife to show him as I couldn't get out of bed. He read a few books on looking after baby, albeit after she was born while I was in hospital!:D
