Ooh will have to have a look at the nude kids on the beach thread now!!!

There's a good 'kids and toy guns' one that might have some life left in it too...

This may put back debate by a century but dd1 dropped from pounds 7 4 to ponds 4 3 before she started gaining weight

dd2 started at pounds 9 7 and fed from the start

ds started at 8 10 and refused breast having assumed I would have learnt and would have the experience of dd2 I was shocked to find I couldn't feed ds but didn't want to risk him plumetting down to dd1 s level.

I can't understand how this becomes a controversey

Oh no don't wordsmith - I didn't cover myself in glory over it...

i bottle fed ds but not by choice i was ill through my pg and when ds was finally born i was on to much medication to breast feed him so he was bottle fed, when i finally came off my meds he was 1 week old and wasnt interested in the breast i did express for him everyday but only for a week i couldnt get enough milk by then, am deffanlty going to try for no 2 though if i can

Bottle.

Wanted to BF but physically could'nt do it, so not much choice really.

berolina · 31/05/2005 23:06

The lot - breast, EBM, formula
ds is 13 days and I'm struggling
Hope to be exclusively breast at some point
Off to bed now after feeding and expressing session

breast and breast for 12 months and 14 months.

jessicasmummy · 01/06/2005 16:57

breast for 4 days after realising dd was getting absolutely nothing from me - then to bottle - never looked back.

this time round, hope to breast feed but depends what my boobs say!

motherinferior · 01/06/2005 16:58

breast exclusively only for three months with dd1, then mixed fed till she dropped b/fing at 10 months
breast exclusively for six months with DD2, then with food, she's never had formula and has taken to the odd lascivious demand for BOOBY again, at nearly two
