ARRGGG DD's need bathing ....

I'm so going to miss the announcement now !!

ImightbeLulumama · 18/04/2008 17:39

CAT Me squonk !!!
or mail @ mothering instincts. com

just plonk millie on your tummy when she is born, and let her find her way to the breast.. if you only feed her for a few days, the colostrum is very valuable

DonDons · 18/04/2008 17:41

SquonkTheBeerGuru · 18/04/2008 17:41

I have just persuaded DH to cook dinner!!! Had to promise a couple of things for when we're in London

But at least I can just stay here and await Millie!!

VictorianSqualor · 18/04/2008 17:42

lulu she wasn't sure how she felt about BFing, she didn't manage to try it with Jamie or Reilly but said if Millie roots she wants to give it a go. So I've been answering all her Q's and telling her just how wonderful she is and will absolutely love Bfing

ImightbeLulumama · 18/04/2008 17:42

i lvoe you dondons!

so the au pair thing would work, yes?

ImightbeLulumama · 18/04/2008 17:43

anyhoo, DH out until 8 tonight, so as long as scorpio pops millie out before then, we are sorted!

kayzisexpecting · 18/04/2008 17:43

Ayomi · 18/04/2008 17:44

ImightbeLulumama · 18/04/2008 17:48

mais oiu, mon amie!

VS, i am not having any more babies, so no more chances. i did try, no support. very cross abotu it. that is why i am so pro breastfeeding, at least giving the information and support to others

DonDons · 18/04/2008 17:48

I think you mean 'au pair - oui'

but the doula world would miss you too much

thanks dondons

can we put your thread on hold until august, starlight? nataliejane's 6 weeks long labour shredded my nerves

DonDons · 18/04/2008 17:51

PMSL Starlight.

You'll probably give birth before me and Picalilli though

VictorianSqualor · 18/04/2008 17:51

Same here, not enough support with DD
Still we can make the difference with others Lulu, together, we can change the world

Actually I had DP telling me last night he thinks I should give up the notion of teaching and be a midwife instead cos I'm more passionate about it than English so now I'm all confuzzled!
I'd love to do breastfeeding counselling do I combine it with midwifery??

ImightbeLulumama · 18/04/2008 17:51

you can do it now, seperately from anything else
