Salesshopper - I went back to work when Katie was 9 months old - I expressed during my morning break which Katie then had the next day. I stopped this at 14 months as I got feed of being disturbed/walked in on whilst expressing - despite there being a sign on the door - where I worked the doors weren't lockable.

We've just been snuggled under our blanket watching Alvin and the Chipmunks that I Sky+'d yesterday

Lots of lovely photos today! Susan that's a lovely scarf

Just pausing while the boys finish eating, I treated myself to a dominator while Hubby is away because he never 'lets' me have it, cookies for afters! :drool:

:mad:I'm so glad you don't work at that shizzy place any more!

I'm also sick of stupid tv shows discussion the BF white paper thing and just ignoring what it actually says as always and turning it into sensationalise rubbish:mad:

What's the white paper Sami?

This is an effing nightmare, having only one room. Miss M can't nap with us in here, Husband is sick and getting more and more annoyed with her because she refuses to lie down and keeps bouncing back up like a jack in the box.

It's great because it's really warm and it stops snow going down my neck (and it's pretty). A lovely friend sent it to me.

Lily just had her dinner and i just had an apple which i then left on the sofa next to me, Lily spotted it and started really staring it out :rotfl:

Now she is eating the remains of the apple and seems very happy

Sami - that was at my employer before the one I've just left, I've had a bad run on jobs - my treatment during my return was one of my reasons for leaving that and having to reapply for my job and them dropping my wage by 2K.

its talked about here http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/personalfinance/8166040/Companies-to-provide-mothers-with-breastfeeding-facilities.html
Its only about what is already recommended (and has been for years!) I remember discussing it during my meetings about Mat leave when PG with Christopher.
The point (as I see it) is mostly that employers should allow mothers to have BF/pumping breaks in the case of the shared mat/pat leave thingy that was proposed.
So essentially where the mother is the higher earner it makes more sense for her to return to work after say 3mths and the daddy have 6-9mths pat leave where they pop along to see mummy at work for her to BF the baby. Which I think would be a fabulous thing for the family situation.
ETA - obv I can also see that this would be difficult for lots of companies too and I'm not saying I agree (or disagree) with it but I just hate how 'we' are unable to have a sensible discussion of the suggestion.

I feel for you stuck in a hotel, it was blimming annoying when we were in Edinburgh and we weren't trapped like you.

I'm glad it has a grateful home.

I love redhaired babies WM And Weezl, I can't believe how much Kessie looks like Fergie! Is he darker-eyebrowed?

Also loving the photos of Landen, Daisy and Finn And lovely Charlotte too

Daisy looks like she's gonna be a redhead!! She looks really ginger in certain light and in some photos you can see it really well:)
