Haven't read more than the odd post because of time, but I did see runny's - how terrible. I don't know what to say, but I do send love.
Feel very out of the loop, and am now completely unable to keep on top of posts, as there are just so many. But I did want to say thank you all so much for advice re G taking a bottle of EBM; we did the Cold Turkey thing, with me taking DS1 out and DP indoors with G, and slowly it worked. Now he will take a small feed with no probs - hooray! We are only intending to give him one small bottle a day, but it does mean that I have a little freedom back - useful as am about to start back at part of my job
Otherwise, all is okay here. DS1 still doesn't like the baby crying but has improved a lot in terms of his reactions (although babies at Mother & Toddler are another thing - sigh). He is quite tantrummy at the mo' but then he is only a baby still himself, really (was two at the start of Feb), and a new baby (leaving aside his issues with the crying) is a lot to deal with. I think it is probably just dawning on the older children that our babies are here to stay rather than here for a visit So am going with it, trying to pretend I don't notice he is biting the carpet because I won't produce a second ice lolly, and biting my tongue Poor lamb - it must be hard being two.
Hope everything is well with you all. I do try to read the longer posts, as they clearly aren't just localised chat, but I am still hopelessly out of touch. I do send love, though xx
