    Evening everyone,

    Hugs to everyone

    Hello AJ - you've just described my DD at the same age, all she did was eat and sleep. I agree with everyone else regarding well meant advice. Ask your HV if there is a breastfeeding support group in your area, it helped me a lot.

    Not much going on here today, Katie spent the afternoon helping Grandad in the garden, this evening she mastered her pedal bike!

    Food shopping complete - Sainsburys was £12 cheaper than Asda and £9 cheaper than Tesco!

    Have we decided a date for Birmingham yet?

    I'm really p!ssed off!!!

    We're supposed to be visiting the baby today... D swapped shifts and came home extra early especially... My mother turned up at 6:45! We got 10mins down the motorway and my brother rang to see where we were as visiting ended at 8... Mother decided seeing as we were still an hour away, to turn around and come home and just go tomorrow... But I know Bro has arranged for my sister to go tomorrow and there's a strict 2 visitor rule at the bedside...

    Flippen idiots... Since when was 6:45 "straight after work"?!

    I also made sure I bought the baby clothes back in the house with me... I washed and dried them all ready so that the baby could wear them straight away and the first thing Mother and her husband did when I got in the car was light up cigarettes... I made a big fuss over making sure the bag was closed so the smoke couldn't get in... And I wasn't about to leave the bag in the car so they could smoke all the way home on them...

    Gah... Fippen idiots...
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

  • Hi ajaney - nothing to add but welcome. Oh and I agree about finding a booby club near you, good for sorting out all those little BF niggles.

    Thanks to everyone, I feel much better about it all! I think the nearest bf group is about 9 miles away in Market Rasen, another incentive to get back driving!

    I should be thankful I have a quiet content baby as it won't last.... he's not shy about making his feelings known if I dont get the booby out quick enough when he does want feeding lol!

    Things at work have gone from bad to worse and I was put on notice a couple of weeks ago. Today I made contact with a guy who I did some work with a while ago. He is now a director at one of the bigger construction companies in the country and he emailed me back within half an hour saying he had a few thoughts, and then rang me about half an hour later to say he has a position that he thinks I am perfect for and would I go to a meeting with him and some of the other directors to discuss it further :D


    And nothing gets past you :p
