Sammy_girl,
you can get Lansinoh from your doctor on free prescription because of the cost - its about a tenner a tube ! whilst on the subject of free prescriptions you can also get gaviscon on prescription - i mention it cos i went for months buying it - not realising i could get it free

Can you also add me to the EDD list, I am due the 23rd Nov and am team yellow !

Oh I thought someone said last week they have stopped giving Gaviscon on free prescription? Or maybe I picked it up wrong or imagined it LOL!

I didn't know you could get it on prescription.
Although tbh, i think i'd rather fork out a tenner than go to our doctors, they'd probably want to fully examine my nips, before misdiagnosing me with something else.

very funny ! I know all doctors are diff but in my area they do the Lansinoh:beer: , i also picked up a new prescription of gaviscon only two days ago so think it may be to do with Docs discretion

Lansinoh is £7.99 at Mothercare at the mo: http://www.mothercare.com/Lansinoh-Nipple-Cream/dp/B000IVT03Y/sr=1-2/qid=1289843828/ref=sr_1_2/279-6578403-7959948?_encoding=UTF8&m=A2LBKNDJ2KZUGQ&n=42764041&mcb=core

Also your midwives should have samples to give to you for free.

Someone on here a while ago suggested vaseline as an alternative to lansinoh.

@Makeit3 - has he not even mentioned that you're having a baby to his new job then?

We're very lucky. OH works for Tesco and he's got 2 weeks paternity plus 2 weeks holiday and they're allowing his holiday to be tagged onto the end of the paternity leave which is really really good of them.

Congrats Pukka :j:j

Why are you :eek:ing Tigtag?!

Oh I got my hypnobirthing book today. I agree with the whole principle of the thing, but I'm not sure the actual hypno part is really me. I'm going to have a go though as even if it helps me relax a little bit I think it will help as I'm quite a tense person.
