Hi everyone! Pages and pages again, I really must come back more often!
thanks tori I had thought I was over it all to be honest, but I think being pregnant again has made me think about it all and how rubbish I felt - not that I thought formula was a bad thing or anything like that but just how completely rubbish I felt on very little sleep and not being able to do this thing they all said was the most natural thing in the world. It's like they were practically saying gee, you weren't cut out for this mummy business!
Thanks leanne :) I just feel like maybe i didn't do so well with that first bit. I definitely wasn't a clothes and makeup within a week of giving birth kind of person. I think it took about 3 months for me to feel remotely human and certainly in those two weeks i must've thought 'i can't do this' more often than not. I feel guilty for feeling that way now but I suppose at the end of the day, I did make it, and I am doing it again! I hope i'm not putting first timers off - I was just overwhelmed, i'm an easily overwhelmed person anyway, and I tend to worry and fret where it's not needed. I won't lie, I found night feeds and things really hard work, but 'this too shall pass' is a great phrase and well worth remembering!
apple thankyou, that's why I stopped in the end, the day I decided to stop I remember going to wash some pots in the kitchen and I dropped a bottle of BM and i cried and cried, it felt like the end of the world. It was probably the 20th time i had cried that day, and i hadn't eaten for a few days. I just felt like there was this crushing weight on my chest and I felt so dizzy. It really had to stop, it certainly wasn't healthy!
ginger I opened a can of pop last week after shopping practically as soon as the receipt came out of the machine lol! I'm sure it's allowed now or i hope it is!
all of the choklit talk is making me desparate for another chocklit fix! If I get really fat during this pregnancy I am blaming you lot!
oh no blondie glad you're ok though bless you
oh cake talk now further down the thread - my favourite cakey thing is chocolate brownie. Lovely stuff.

sorry you're having problems mum hope things are sorted soon, your GP sounds like an utter arse!
