Ali - my side of the bed is the opposite side of our room from the door, and it's easier to sit on the pouffe in his room for the other feeds. I need a low seat, with a relatively straight back and no arms on a chair, which are awkward to get hold of. Everyone recommended the Ikea Poang, but it's impossible for me to feed in.
I've spotted a nice antique one on ebay, but it's got six days to go, so I need to remember to check on it.

I hate Poangs, they are sooo uncomfortable. I think they are better if you are tall, which I am decidedly not!

I'm gatecrashing - I hope that's OK?

Plum / Wasting - DS has a thing for Bunk Beds. He took his clothes off and got in the one at friends house yesterday evening .

I am hoping that the baby will have a cot in DS's room and then they will get bunk beds when he/she is big enough.

Not sure whether DS will agree to this though. We have a lovely big spare room but since we are soooo far from relatives I want to keep it as a room for visitors really. However, things change...

Lunch!!!! and a tv break call
