    Thank you ladies, her eyes and skin colour are about all she has inherited from me, everything ielse is her dad to a tee!
    Re tattoos my oh has had her name and date of birth incorporated into a full arm sleeve and I'm going to get the same on the back of my neck as soon as I finish breastfeeding. I already have 7 others which all mean an awful lot to me so can't wait to add my lil miss but I know they're not everyone's cup of tea :)

    Any breastfeeding mums who had a baby point blank refusing to take a bottle initially but eventually had success with any tips? I have to do a few days work in June and am stressing about how Shay and/or my oh will cope as as soon as she sees a bottle she goes ballistic and we'll be nowhere near the point where solids will do for the 8 hours I'll be away from her.

    Oh nice :) I'd like to see yours when you get it x

    Oh lovely pics of mums and babes! I've had a big cry tonight that my tiny baby (who was never that tiny to start with) is no longer tiny and I wish I could rewind to those first few weeks to have them all over again when I wasn't so poorly/tired. OH had only said goodnight & got bombarded with that lot lol!!

    Daydream - have you tried medela bottle? I tried little one on it when we had a few issues with bottle feeding and it had zero effect but it is supposed to mimic the breast more than other bottles. As for crinkly toys that sound like wipes Lamaze do various toys like that one of which is a doll with teething bits on and get skirt crinkles. She is £9 in Mothercare and some sort of princess toy which you can attach to pram or car seat if you want to

    Morning ladies, lovely pics! I'll try and get some of my monkey up later.

    Yay for walking sammie!

    I've got one tattoo from before George that I love but I don't think I'll have any more. I think personally I prefer a special bit of jewellery to commemorate our little family like my charm necklace. Less pain!

    Hope you're feeling better now Moneypenny? Ha I wouldn't want to go back to the early days, even without the tiredness and sore bits. Sometimes I feel sad that he'll be big soon but then I think I can't wait til he's big enough to help me with baking and stuff like that, and I can't wait til he starts talking. Every stage that I've thought is my favourite with him has been taken over by the next one so far! Might take that back when he hits the terrible twos though ;)
