    :j That's great news - hope it's given you some reassurance so you can relax a bit more about the feeding situation now x

    It certainly has - I am much more relaxed about everything now. I think it's really hard in the first few weeks with a new baby as you are questioning everything and wondering if it is normal. Of course, there is no such thing as normal as every baby is different but it takes a little while to get know your baby and work out what is normal for them.

    Infacol has really helped the little man to bring his wind up. Well, I say that but I suppose he could just be getting better at it as he gets older or maybe my winding technique is improving or it is just coincidence. But I shall carry on with the Infacol anyway. It's ridiculous but I get so excited when he does a massive burp now! How my life has changed in five short weeks...

    Having a baby certainly does change your view of the world! I can't really remember what life was like without my little girl :o I agree that the first few weeks are difficult - it's such a steep learning curve and so hard to know if you're doing the right thing. It's amazing how quickly you start to trust your own instincts though as you get to know your baby and all their little quirks :)

    Toni - congratulations, Maisie was our chosen name for a girl. :D

    Jannine - another lovely pic of poppy smiling :)

    I managed to buy a vtech walker on Saturday. I bought it off eBay and it was only down the road so picked it up the same day. Cost me £6.50 :D super pleased with my bargain!! It's immaculate too so going to stash it at my granparents house until Christmas time.

    hey everyone, moving onto this thread from the pregnancy one, had my little girl Maisie a week ago today, not the nicest of births but shes fine so thats the main thing. Trying to get the hang of breast feeding at the mo, blimey i didn't realise what hard work it is but glad to say think im finally getting the hang of things now. One question, when did you start using baby wipes? thanks

    Welcome hun and congratulations! I used Huggies cotton sheets for the first 3/4 months, then started using wipes. Good luck with everything x

    Oh well done Aiden, yay! To be honest, I just find fb easier to get onto, as its on my phone already. You guys should pop on sometime, just a small group of MSE ladies offering support, advice, ideas etc

    Well done on the Xmas shopping! I need to get started lol x

    Had to start xmas shopping early as money bit tight with nursery fees etc so trying to spread it out.
