    I don't want my OH to take bubs out without me lol. He says things like when you go to xxx and me and Jakey are at home.... and I'm like you mean I have to leave him home with you I want to take him with me lol.

    I don't get on with the MiL AT ALL so they will be going to her house without me! x

    haha see that I can understand, we don't really have any family close though except my grandparents (and mother) and we would probably all go there or just me and bubs.

    Not sure whether will want to visit my mum too often though as mean as that sounds, I wouldn't mind if she came up to my nans to see us though (they only live a few doors away).

    Would have my auntie to visit lots and she was going to be godmum till she dropped the bombshell she was going back to Oz x

    I don't need to worry about a changing bag DH can use, he doesn't do nappies. In the end I made the decision not go for the college evening course because I didn't think he would manage to cope for 4 hours with a baby. He's good once they are over 1, but just doesn't like the practicalities of the baby stage.

    I was quite relieved to have the OH take Freddie out without me. The first week we were home he took him to Waitrose to give me a break. I had a long soak in the bath and washed my hair without having one ear listening out for screams. Bliss!

    You'll probably be well glad of the break by then! If you're booby-feeding you'll need to do a bit of forward planning but by six weeks it will be fine to give expressed milk in a bottle. Although you might want to make sure bubs takes it first! Imagine the day your OH would have if your baby refused... Yikes!
