call me weird but I quite like the bf. Maybe as it's an excuse to sit/lie down and read/mn.

How's the website going, Holly? There's loads of good articles on www.webmonkey.com for website building. Are you using a web design software? There's stuff out there that'll let you design a site using templates, maybe that's your best bet

daisyandbabybootoo · 07/08/2007 21:22

i don't think you're weird sputnik....i think I'm weird for not enjoying it, but it is reassuring that i'm not alone.

i was enjoying it when things were going well but it's become a bit of a painful ordeal again recently. I've had blocked ducts in both boobs on and off for over a week as she isn't latching properly, and have had an intermittent shooting pain in the right one since this afternoon. It's hard to enjoy it when its going badly

HELP Holly!! Oh ebay guru - have an ebay cocok up on my behalf. Have sold an item £8.50 and pp £8.00, = £16.50, but when sent the invoice managed to double it. How I don't know. How can I change it ?

bumperlicious · 07/08/2007 22:08

Evening all, everyone seems in good spirits, in spite of screaming, poorly, badly feeding babies!

Daisy, soory to hear your LO is feeling poorly, it's so sad when they are in pain and there is not much you can do. I really don't want to take DD but I probably will, it's my duty as a mother to be there for her, I just don't want to pass on my anxiety over it.

You have mail btw daisy.

The website sounds like a good idea Holly.

Tallulah, I know what you mean about the feeding, just when you think you have cracked it, there is another problem. I change my mind about how I feel. Sometimes I quite like it, and like how it makes DD feel, obviously close to me and comforted. But when it is painful, or she's fussing I wonder if it's worth it. When DH gives her a bottle it's like wham, down her neck, no fuss, know how much she has taken, and seems so much easier. I would feel sorry for her if I did give it up, she wouldn't understand why I wasn't feeding her from the breast any more, I can understand how people can go beyond a year, I never used to, but can see it now.

Trace, you sound like you are doing great despite everything.

Hi everyone else - sorry, have the attention span of a knat at the moment!

loonylovegood · 07/08/2007 22:14

SG don't worry. The person that received your invoice can edit it themselves. If they don't know how to do this then they will get in touch with you and you can resend it.

Thanks sputnik. I'll have a look. I've just downloaded a dodgy copy of dreamweaver. I don't really know if that is the way to go, but it looks quite good so I'll give it a go! I don't know if I'll have time to get to grips with it with ds stuck on my nork all day! A friend of mine used to do a similar site for mobile phones and he used to get quite a bit of money from it.

how will it work holly, or would you rather not say incase someone steals your idea?

maybe i'll just wait and see.

bumper....how intriguing...i've mailed you back.

i will get around to e-mailing everyone tomorrow. at the moment i have to try and figure out how to extricate myself from under babyboo as i really really need a wee and my pelvic floor is shot to pieces...i sneezed violently last week and wet myself ...and I didn't even give birth so no excuse really!

loonylovegood · 07/08/2007 22:27

Lol daisy! I wet myself all the time! Maybe I shouldn't shout about that one !!

The website will work by people clicking through to a shop's site through mine. Everytime people buy things from the shop's site I will get a percentage of the purchase. I just need to find out how many baby shops do this.

a quick update on taichimum.....for those who remember her from the early days of our thread...she is now around 11 weeks pregnant after 2 mcs and has had a nuchal scan and everything looks well with very low chance of downs. baby was moving well too. I've passed on regards from all of us.

righty ho...I'm off to bed. goodnight all. xx

Seansgirl · 07/08/2007 22:30

Thanks Holly, was shitting myself not wanting neg feedback, hopefully they will know! thanks again.

Seansgirl · 07/08/2007 22:31

Oohhh, fingers crosed for this LO. Hugs and best wishes Taichimum

daisyandbabybootoo · 07/08/2007 22:32

sg, can you contact them and apologise profusely for the mistake?

bumperlicious · 07/08/2007 22:34

I went back to yoga today and nearly wet myself!

bumperlicious · 07/08/2007 22:35

Bags I don't sit next to Holly on the meet-up! She might smell of wee!

bumperlicious · 07/08/2007 22:36

Right, I'm going to do the unspeakable and wake DD up for a feed!

daisyandbabybootoo · 07/08/2007 22:38

lol bumper...but hark at you....doing yoga and being creative...are you sure you have a six week old baby? have you sold her or something?

g'night this time

loonylovegood · 07/08/2007 22:38

I don't actually wet myself all the time, just occasionally! I don't smell of wee...honest!

I want to join a gym, but I'm sure I'll end up wetting myself whilst on running machine!

DS is wanting booby, so goodnight xx

DH is off this week! It's the only reason I'm getting anything done! Got your email btw daisy, I still haven't done my bloody child benefit form! How can they expect new mothers to get around to it? I've lost mine!

daisyandbabybootoo · 07/08/2007 22:43

i'm still lurking...you can do it on-line bumper.

Juwairiyyahsmaama · 07/08/2007 23:02

Hi everyone ! Am i welcome here? I'm wearing Eau de Baby Sick too . Had my DD on the 14th of June '07 .She's my first

bumperlicious · 07/08/2007 23:09

That depends Ju (mind if i call you that? sorry, typing one handed while feeding). Are you still fat? Do you neglect your child to spend time on mumsnet? Do you like shopping? Due you occasionaly border on the edge of sanity? If the answer to any of those is yes you are v welcome!

seriously though, hope you are manging ok, and hope you find solace on here with us!

bumperlicious · 07/08/2007 23:18

Sorry Ju, hope i didn't scare you off already! ignore my crap sense of humour!

Gotta go and concentrate on this poor feeding baby (tick one box - neglecting child for mumsnet)

night all

trendaverter · 08/08/2007 06:40

DS slept from 10pm - 5am... had a feed (no screaming!!) with a happy playful baby... he's back asleep now...

Am still bloody tired though, DH was on feeding duty last night as I got sick with squits and vom for some odd reason! Anyway needless to say he is rubbish at it and spent from 2am awake asking me every 20 minutes "Should I feed him now?"
me - "Is he asking to be fed?"
DH - "He's grunting a bit"
me - "He gets that from his father. No. Go back to sleep".

andiem · 08/08/2007 08:33

morning TA at least yours wakes up mine asks the fateful question did he wake up in the night? aagh.

Had a good noight with lo just awake at 2 and 5 then fast asleep at 07.30 and ds comes in and wakes me up I came near to bopping him and I am a strictly no smacking mummy. I have told him so many times not to wake me if it's the morning and me and lo are asleep but he just doesn't get it AIBU?????? Feel like bad mummy
