because my breasts were very uncomfortable but do I a) freeze it, or b) use it in place of the high energy formula and see what happens with Callum's weight?

I'd be tempted to give it to him rather than freeze it.
how old is he now? and how is it going?

moondog · 03/02/2008 23:10

Give it to ihm?
How much formula is he taking now?
What is the situation?o

hunkermunker · 03/02/2008 23:11

How's his weight been recently, SGK?

You're amazing, you know?

SparklyGothKat · 03/02/2008 23:14

Ok, he is fully breastfed during the day and night, he is now on 1 bottle of formula in the evenings, he has about 7oz [hog!] He is now 10lb 12oz and filling out, looking chubby now

Oh wonderful!
Why don't you reduce the amount of formula then and see how you get on (if you want to that is)?

gigglewitch · 03/02/2008 23:15

coooool!! you are doing really well

defo give it to him, then

SparklyGothKat · 03/02/2008 23:17

Oh, SGK, just seen the pic of him next to his weeny sleepsuit on your profile!

You brilliant thing, you!

I'd be tempted to give him bmilk top-up and see what happens.

SparklyGothKat · 03/02/2008 23:20

lol, he is **HUGE compared to that babygro.. I can't believe he wore that in SCBU... I found one of his hats in the car that must have escaped from the bag of washing while he was in SCBU and its weeny!!
