    Ohh good luck for tomorrow scary stuff but you will be so chuffed when you pass;)

    I really want to watch OBEM but it is on soooo late and I am totally exhausted today. Could just sit here and have a wee cry :o

    Got my flu jab today never felt a thing, arm is a teeny bit tender but nothing too bad at the mo.

    Pixie hope your enjoying your B & J's :drool:

    Hi MV, I know nothing but after reading about Lilians troubles I've been swatting up reading my book. Some points that might help:

    * Remember they only need a tiny amount of collustrum and that it's really rich and your body knows what to produce so try and have confidence that the baby is getting what he needs.

    * At my breastfeeding class they advised that if you can't breastfeed the collustrum to express it onto a teaspoon and try and feed to baby that way. Probably a bit late for that advice though. I remember her saying you'll think it's hardly anything on the spoon, but that it's OK. And it's normal to be a tiny bit.

    * The book says that when your milk comes in (usually 3 to 7 days after giving birth) you may (most likely by the sounds of it) get really sore rock hard huge boobs for 24 - 48 hours! Nice huh? It says that during this period you may struggle to feed because baby will struggle latching on with the boobs being so solid. It sounds like after this period that's when things get a little easier.

    Just reread your post - maybe your milk is coming in soon if you have rocks :)

    Hope it gets easier (hugs)

    What book is this? :)
    I am really happy & relieved to be able to say everything was looking perfect at the 20 week scan today :) The sonographer was taken a back by just how good a kick the baby has as she felt it a few times push the thing of my tummy LOL We are having another boy!!! :) So very happy that we have made it this far & all is looking good :)

    Congrats hun, must be a huge relief as I remember your bad times before x

    Hugs to everyone having a poo day xxxx


    Aww MV he's gorgeous!! :D


    Had a really fab day out today, spent hours talking with mum-in-law at her kitchen table while Hubs and dad-in-law sorted a printer - really brought it home exactly what I've missed with my own mum and made me more determined than ever to be a good Mummy to my little monkeys :) Going back round tomorrow so Moo can see them - quite looking forward to it :o Ooh and Hubs put our cotbed up this afternoon too - it's lovely!! Quite excited now :D

    Got something on on Weds that I can't remember right now, midwife Thursday and Glucose test Monday - so looking forward to the days in between so I can reacquaint my backside with our couch!!!
    :rotfl::rotfl:


    Right, I've loads to catch up on from today, Moo's just shouted to say she's ready for me to tuck her in and I'm in serious need of a cuppa!!


    Congrats/Safe delivery/labour vibes/hugs to everyone - delete as applicable ;) xxx

    Aww Ice, I was the same, up at 4, bloody knackered now - I said to Hubs before that if I don't manage to sleep tonight that I will be punching the world in the face tomorrow morning :o:o Bit extreme but exactly how I felt earlier :rotfl:


    Hope everyone gets a good sleep tonight - think we all deserve it!! xxx

    Well I'm beyond grumpy, had a nap this afternoon and now feel rubbish. I'm now thinking I should of stayed awake and I might have a better chance of sleeping through the night! I'm going to hit the Horlicks and see if it helps - very rock and roll! :rotfl:

    Gonna Sky + both OBEM & Biggest Loser so I've got something to watch in the afternoons or middle of the night which every the case maybe.

    I'm nervous about tomorrows doppler scan too but I don't know why. OH can't get the time off so my mum and dad are taking me over.

    Hugs to all in need tonight or who have had rubbish days xx

    Labour vibes to the ladies who need or want them xx

    And lots of sleep vibes to Club Insomina xx
