Shameless x-post:

Ok that's enough now. I have milk in my boobs but the little sod won't work at getting it!!!

Have you noticed how nobody on mn ever has really crap let down? It's all 'when my let down kicks in there are floods in Norfolk and it gushes out of the side of my dc's mouth to run out to sea'. I'm here to stand up for the women who have the most rubbish let down ever - I'm one of them. It's not a let down it's a trickle.

Good news Schulte. What a relief for you and little H. Hope Sam's goes as well on the 11th - will let y'all know.

JJ - Ouch, can you express to get some relief?
Holly has a preference too, no idea why.

DH has booked the day off tomorrow so we can take the girls to Longleat. The weather is looking a bit ropey though. Grr.

Also the monkey bit is closed as one has tested positive for simian herpes. Now I may be sleep deprived here but if one, and only one is positive in a closed environment then does that mean someone has been doing the unspeakable with a monkey? Can you get interspecies stds?
Too much for breakfast?

Why won't DD take the right boob??? It's bursting! She's been perfectly fine with it til now, but just got fussy. The start of attention-seeking behaviour perhaps? Along with the new happy shrieking noises [shutting both ears emoticon]

Babies starting to move left right and centre. If we weren't overrun and busy before...

That's so sweet, Puzzle, may the sisterly love continue .

Flippin heck, Springy, just when you really need more support from your nearest (and dearest?). What an ill-informed twit (I love that word).

Boff for nephew. Hope they diagnose quickly so you can all worry less and get on and give him the help he needs.

Hello Conkertree - gosh more mummies popping out of the woodwork that I haven't met yet.

Swine flu not even reported here in Dubai - press control/denial. Worried about unnecessary exposure as going for necessary DD weightcheck at busy clinic on Sat.

Bronze - Hooray for that. Are you a sailor? DH can but we don't have access to a boat. Am jealous.

Ellen was terribly sweet yesterday. An ant crawled towards Holly and she grabbed it dextrously and threw it away from her shouting "get away from my sister!".
I gave her a teacake for her troubles.

we might be getting a family holida dh has agreed to go out on pils boat if we take our best mates with us so there is an adult per child on board. they're up for it so just got to work out the logistics yay

frekkles can I just say you may have been worried how you would cope and everyhting but you seem tobe doing fab and I'm actually jealous of your happy carefree life with your chilled baby (though mines chilled too)

WFH, they get better between 3-10, and then it goes downhill again when they discover crime. I have one thing to say on the matter. It's Thomas Phelan's book '1-2-3 Magic'. Brilliant stuff once you get past the American cheesy writing.
