normabutty · 04/07/2007 12:36

Pesha · 04/07/2007 12:37

So you all bugger off just as i get here

is anyone else's sky not working or is it just mine?

We have no channels at all - it better come back soon or i might have to interact with my dc or something

Pesha · 04/07/2007 12:39

Cant stand tea or coffee here but do like a good hot choc, preferably with whipped cream and a nice wafery thing!

Eddas · 04/07/2007 12:40

I'm here, been lurking

Pesha, Have you tried unplugging it, waiting for a bit, then plugging it back in? You don't really want to TALK to the DC's do you

Eddas · 04/07/2007 12:43

Dd's just handed me back her lunch saying she now wants a treat. So I've said no as she's not eaten much and she says 'I've eaten 5 sandwiches' she only had 4

Kids!!!!!!!!

Where is the new topic? Hello by the way! You ok?

Pesha, really glad you had a better night and hope you feel brighter for it.

Bit stressed as dd was weighed yesterday. We had gone to clinic for 2nd round of injections which she has been fine after thankfully. She has only gained 8oz in 2.5 weeks and is now pretty much down on to the 25th centile having started on the 50th at birth. HV wasnt overly concerned so I suppose I shouldnt be either. I have decided for the next couple of weeks (until she is weighed again) to make a real effort to eat properly. My diet consists of biscuits, choc and one main decent meal in the evening. I eat a lot of crap which I am sure probably doesnt help with milk quality so have been to tescos this morning and bought fruit, both fresh and dried, yogurts and some very lovely cashew nuts. The plain not the salted variety (not a fan of salt here, bleughh). Will really try to snack on sensible things and see if it makes any difference.
That was a bit long winded, sorry.

normabutty · 04/07/2007 13:24

Mammyjo - i think they've deleted it already.

Sorry to hear your LO's weight has dropped,erin's did that a bit too. Try not to worry although i know that's easier said than done! sounds like you're doing the right thing bu eating better (better for you too!)

AngeG · 04/07/2007 13:24

Afternoon all

Have tried to catch up...only things I can remember is doidy cups and hot choc

Dippy - I wrote your cheque straight away and gave it to DH to post Have rung and asked him he said he posted it on mondaySo sorry to muck you around...should be there tomorrow...let me know if its not and i'll have more words with DH

In general I hate hot drinks...except hot chocolate. I too loved the Turkish Delight options one and was seriously unhappy when they stopped doing them...they do appear every now and again though. Has anyone tried the aero bubbly one? Love that one too.

I really can't remember anything else

AngeG · 04/07/2007 13:29

Hi mammyjo and Norma

Mammyjo - Izzy's weight has also dropped she had only put on 9oz in 2 weeks when I had her weighed...she is now on the 9th centile having started on the 25th. As you say they don't seem concerned so I am trying not too...she looks so tiny still though [was 10lbs 9oz on Monday]Not sure what you eat makes a difference though...reading some of what was said on Octos thread it seems it makes no difference to milk quality or quantity.

mammyjo · 04/07/2007 13:44

Hi Norma and Ange.

Is that really true about what you eat making no difference? Just my luck!! Still, at least that way I can stop blaming myself for crap milk quality. Need to eat a more healthy diet anyway. I have felt really down lately and I am sure part of that is too much refined sugar and crap. I feel brighter today and have eaten a stack of fruit and made a quick risotto for lunch so good stuff. May be a coincidence but it probably isnt.

Was just thinking about smole and jesse. Anyone heard from her? Hope they are both doing ok.

AngeG · 04/07/2007 14:00

Mammyjo - I agree with you i'm sure eating better makes me feel better. I think it was Tiktok on Octos thread who said what you eat made no difference.

Haven't heard from Smole since I fowarded an email round from her a while ago.

Katy44 · 04/07/2007 14:03

Hi everyone
Has anyone seen the threads about Hillls? Very weird!
BTW am doing housework, honestly!!

mammyjo · 04/07/2007 14:05

What threads about Hills? I dont venture far from this thread so must be missing something!

mammyjo · 04/07/2007 14:14

Have just looked at octos thread about bf. It actually made me feel better when tiktok said the weight gain def would slow down after three months (which dd now is). Really want to keep going with exclusive bf so will do just that and see what happens!
Both my mum and dh said I should introduce a bottle as her last feed of the day, but I dont want to. I know they are trying to be helpful really.

AngeG · 04/07/2007 14:17

Glad you feel reassured mammyjo...Izzy does have a bottle of EBM every other night, which she takes pretty well. Think you should do what you are happy with...don't be pressured
