That last post sounded heartless, but it just really !!!!ed me off. Made worse because I'm running about and DH is sitting on the couch playing a crap (and it really is crap) game (!!!!! 2, did I mention that it is crap?).
Krystal, I have chocolate, wanna share?0 -
Weezel - Can I ask of the photos on your site are stock photos or photos you've taken yourself of your handy work?
Guessing you'd want the geeky answer as into photography yourself?

Might have to adopt the cheeseboard idea though.
I thought it was a LOT more than that tbh. The bill is always a lot more but I forget that I usually end up picking up all sort of crap when I get caught up in the madness.0 -
Right, Im not being rude but Im recieving daggers from DH. It's his night tonight, not the laptop's. So will catch you all tomorrow- dont write too much! It takes yyeeearrrs to read back!

right, have attempted to read through and forgotten most of it, oops....
had a look at weezls site, looks amazing and something i might try when maternity pay goes down.
christmas, think i spent about £100 on food, but was to cover from xmas eve to new years day if that makes sense, and alcohol. Make my own cake and puds and water them weekly with brandy from end of october.
ds has survived school in one piece brought a book home which we've had to read and need to upload photos of him onto facebook as he looks so cute and small in his enormous blazer.
dd has been feeding on and off all day, but did manage a 3hr window when she only woke up due to humongous poo which went everywhere, down legs, up back etc. Have decided to just go with the flow and accept its prob gonna take over my life for the forseeable future but think shes probably worth it!!
also thanks for latch advice (think it was krystal) have been trying to make sure shes doing it properly and not hanging off the end of me! have still not attempted lying down but may give it a go later.....

Give him a job to do Tia, Husband will often not do anything because he sees me rushing around and assumes I have it under control, so I'm cursing him and he's thinking I'm amazing cause I've got it all covered.Organised Birthdays and Christmas: Spend So Far: £193.75; Saved from RRP £963.76

That's a great attitude to have Becky, and the amount of time it takes over your life... In the grand scheme of things... Isn't that long...
Glad the latching information helpedand the best way I could describe feeding lying down is, lie on your side and let your boob flop onto the bed, then drag the baby over to the boob rather than trying to manipulate yourself to where she is...
