MSE Parents Club Part 14

got-it-spend-it

I'm back from two days of talking coffee, and after sneaky previews I am pleased to report that the Gingerbread Latte and the Eggnog are as good as ever! It's a tough job but someone has to do it.

I got thanked by my bosses boss for making the effort to go- thanks, but my son is 11 months old, not 11 days!

I was really lucky that my community midwife was really good. My only problem was the pain (and until the midwife came, worry that I wasn't doing it right because all the information beforehand said thatif it hurt you weren't doing it right) and I know that if OH had suggested switching to formula on one of the really bad days I would have. I used to dread feeding her and spend ages psyching myself up for it because I knew it would be really bad. It was about a month before I felt like I would be able to keep going. I also found that for the first few weeks I was much more emotional while I was actually feeding so I only needed to think about something sad while I was feeding and tears would start pouring down my face.

I sometimes worry about BFing next time even though I am still feeding H now. The first couple of weeks were hard and sore and I totally agree with you about feeling like an emotional wreck while feeding him.


CAFC- I am absolutely :mad: at the bloomin' women. I am also very that there are no lovely mummies near you for you to drink tea and eat biscuits with. Have you looked into your local NCT? Mine has been a lifeline for me. I knew no-one with babies when I had H and now I know lots of other mummies and we don't even always talk babies!

Kindof- I don't really fret over how much H has eaten as he will let me know when he is hungry. I know that some days I eat loads, and some days I hardly eat anything so I figure he is probably the same.


Congratulations EA, I saw the pics on FB.

Oh there is. But she's really very useless and can't organise getting out of bed on a morning let alone leave the house :eek:

:eek: at the Chilean miner whose wife has found out about his girlfriend while he has been down the mine. Does anyone else think that the whole preservation/rescue programme has been awesome?

I'm glad I'm not the only one too. I thought I was strange being worried about bfing again when a) I'm not even pregnant b) am still bfing Alfie and c) really really want to bf again!

TMI: On a slightly related note AF has made an appearance today; very very light though (which is unusual for me). Did other people's come back full straight away or was the first one different to normal?

It's amazing. I got some dust in my eye when I watched it.

Is the miner who's wife knows about the girlfriend out yet? Or is he still in the mine refusing to come up? :rotfl:

Wanna buy a BMW M3 Convertible with hard-top thrown in?

I just put pieces together and its clicked. We have mice.
I kept seeing black things by the toaster and assumed it was the crumbs from it, but i just checked and there are droppings and shredded foil behind it,

I've cleaned it all and sprayed bleach everywhere.

Im calling the landlord tomorrow, should she be doing anything or is it down to us?

I feel so ergh, i dont even know how it got in.
