    Glad I didn't upset you. :)
    I would try and stick with it - growth spurts feel like they last forever but they do go eventually so perhaps give it a few more days and see what happens.

    Where does the time go? :think:

    Just seems a coincidence that it started just after taking them. :( She's still slept okay even through other spurts she just fed more all evening. I'll give it til Wednesday i think...

    Beenie try doing all the supplementing-supply things that are listed on previous threads, fenugreek and oatmeal are the ones I remember but there's also massage and other stuff, right?

    Don't lose heart, lovely xxx

    Beenie, I'd stick with it if you can manage. Only worry if she starts to become lethargic and sleepy or if her nappies start to dry up. It could just be co-incidence. And I don't think stopping breast feeding is going to help you right now. We're here for you to moan at and keep you sane :D

    Any anti-d can take a while to settle in your system, and can affect certain areas of the body before it starts on the intended ones.

    I'm not sure if you can take it when BF but St Johns Wort is good for mood lifting, as too are changes in your diet.

    And dont forget if you just wanna get out of the house, and be in different surroundings, you,Amber and Cam' are more than welcome to come and chill out at mine. You can meet the pug called Gordon Ramsay that steals sandwiches off pregnant women :)

    Thanks all, i will carry on with them for now. It's probably not as bad as i am making out. I just can't stand it when she's feeding all night cos even though i'm dozing it feels like i'm trapped and waking up every 5 mins lol!

    I've just given her some yoghurt LOL, just a few tastes but she liked it. I'm so bad, it was one of those muller corner things, vanilla flavour :whistle: My dental nurse friend will kill me :eek: She lectured me yesterday when i said i gave Amber a sip of tea out of my cup LOL.

    Ahh thanks CAFC you might regret that when we all come charging round demanding cuppas :D:D

    SS, I thought it was at 3pm? Or is it 4pm because of daylight savings?

    I feel terrible...was getting annoyed b/c the photographer was supposed to turn up at 2:30, but DH's Blackberry was switched off so didn't get the e-mail she sent a few hours ago that she's newly pregnant and bleeding so had to cancel our session. I hope she's okay as I feel for people I don't even know that have a scare like that.

    DH suggested maybe I stay here while he goes over to friend's mum's with Alfie as I looked so tired. I agreed it would be a good idea as I feel a bit hormonal today and don't think I'd be much fun but now they've just left I won't be able to get a nice photo at 4. Could take one of myself sat here on my own but not really what I had in mind. Was going to get one in the theme of family :(

    And I'm sill hungry but there isn't anything I want to eat.

    Sorry for the whinge :o

    AFAIK you can't take St John's Wort at the same time as anti d's though

    Don't feel bad, you weren't to know before you got the email.

    If your picture's a couple of hours late I'm sure they won't mind (they say on the site they don't mind so long as they don't know ;)) - it'll still be representing what you would have been doing IYSWIM :)

    Don't feel bad aless, how were you to know?
