HOW STRANGE!!!! I knew it was good but.....

[JARM]

Freecycle! I offered some bits on freecycle this morning, and a couple just came to collect one of my items.

We got chatting, and guess what! She is a BFC and has offered all the help I could want or need when baby is born! (Im 39 weeks!)

As a lot of you know - hunker/mars etc - Im so determined to make BF work 3rd time around and this has given me such a boost! She has told me about the babycafe on a friday in the library, a toy library at the church hall, and even offered to come around the house or the hospital and help me once baby arrives - all I have to do is drop her an email!

Its people like this that I have been wanting to meet, but havent had the confidence to look out!

Sorry, I know there isnt a lot anyone can say in response, but Im so happy that I finally have a point of contact for when things go tits (hahaha) up!

oh well done.

not sure if you know this, but couldnt really to get to grips with bfeeding with dd1+2, by the time dd3 came along, with the support of mumsnet and sheer bloodimindness, i fed dd3 till she was over 2 years old.

cant believe you have a week to go!

ooooo

Thats great JARM.
I hope you get all the help you need and have a great time feeding your new one

[JARM]

awww you are all so sweet!

LVOC - this is my thing, i am so bloody determined this time!

Only a week to go - im scared and excited, but also bloody fed up! Cant believe I havent even started my "is this it" thread yet - wont beat DD2's 3 week marathon thread!

That's great! Will wait impatiently for an 'is this it' thread (clearly no-one told dd2 that second and subsequent babies are meant to be EARLIER... wonder if baby no. 3 has heard?)!

I love stories like this. I often find it is the unexpected friendships that are the best.

Good luck with the birth and bf'ing. With your determination and the bfc it sounds like tour already halfway there - and the baby hasn't even arrived yet!
