Tonights plan is to tidy up then rock on my birthing ball (hopefully to get Thomas to turn), tweak my nipples, eat a pineapple and drink RLT :rotfl:

Can anyone recommend nursing bras? I've gone from a 40DD to a 42F. I was thinking of picking them up in Mothercare but if you girls have a recommendation I'd be glad to hear it

im joint 8th after boldies :eek: when did that happen

lozzy i packed bag at 35 wks thought it was a bit early but i like to be organised and its stopped me stressing about it. just bought cereal bars and bottled water today in home bargains and need to get nursing bras next sunday.

sequeena im just going togo to mothercare i can get measured properley and buy there basic 2 pack one black one white for i think its £30 also have a voucher for £5 off from baby and me club. i know its still not cheap but i havent been able to find cheap nursing bras anywhere (where i can try them on) im also looking for cheap nursing tops im going to use some ordinary tops but would like a couple of proper nursing tops their still really expensive even second hand on e bay.

hope everyone is well and labour vibes to all who want them

Oh god.....

I've eaten practically 3/4 of a bag of grapes, 750ml of smoothie, two satsumas....

I'm not blocked anymore. But I have been banned from the downstairs toilet because Dad has been complaining when he walks past it that he can't breathe....

Thank god I didn't take the prune juice advice....

10.30 on a Saturday night and my OH has gone to bed, I'm the pregnant one and I don't want to sleep. Nothing good on t.v either.

Abby - you have made me chuckle (sorry) but glad you're no longer blocked!

Found this and thought it was amusing too (In a slightly immature mood today!) Click through and look at the other pics, the "office scene" one is my favourite. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Simple-Wishes-Hands-Free-Breast-Pump/dp/B00295MQLU/ref=sr_1_178?s=baby&ie=UTF8&qid=1311456169&sr=1-178

Can previous breast feeders please advise if it's worth having nipple shields just in case? I have one shy nip so just worried about it being successful - and would rather not have to stay in hosp just because BF isn't working so well if all else is well IYKWIM.

ETA - Also, do people recommend proper support pillows, or normal pillows, or no pillows for BF?

might be an alternative for you?

I got measured in Mothercare but didn't want to buy there in case I found a bargain elsewhere... I couldn't find their 2 packs either. The cheapest I found was £18 per bra.

Most of the ladies I was on here with have had their babies now I think but just to announce the safe arrival of Liana Evelyn on 21st July with a weight of 6lbs15.
