that would figure BZ, she has been laughng and giggling at everything this afternoon. she seems to have adopted bruno the bear though....DS home from school and is not best pleased.

How are you now?

Aw andiem, sorry your trip was abandoned. Why was it closed?

Jamantha · 19/09/2007 15:50

Don't believe how brave I've just been. Had met a mum at agroup who'd pointed out her house and said to call in anytime. So I just did (even though I wasn't totally sure which house, she's said the one with the sat dish, and when I go there 2 houses had them, so I picked the one with the toys in the garden and hoped for the best) and asked her to come to stay and play tomorrow. We went once before and only one mum said hello, so thought it would be nice to go with company. So I've got a "date" for tomorrow morning!

Jamantha · 19/09/2007 15:51

My DD isn't interested in any of her soft toys

annobal · 19/09/2007 16:02

Jamantha - well done! That's very brave. Enjoy your 'playdate' tomorrow

Daisy, one day shouldn't effect (affect? I don't know) your supply and she'll probably have huge feed tonight. If she's distracted, sit in a dark room.

BZ, how are you feeling now?

Andiem - sorry about your legoland trip. Which one did you go to?

I'd like to go to the Windsor one - anyone up for another meet up?

annobal · 19/09/2007 16:04

We'd a new McLaren pushchair - was Holly selling one? And, does anyone want our old one?

annobal · 19/09/2007 16:04

That's we'd like...

Jamantha · 19/09/2007 16:10

According to the website Legoland is closed on the following dates 18,19,25, 26 September, 2, 3, 9,10,16,17 October and 29, 30, 31, 1, 2 November.

Jamantha · 19/09/2007 16:12

Blinkin' 'eck! £33 for adult day entry to Legoland!!

BadZelda · 19/09/2007 16:25

Hi Annobal - I'm feeling much better now, as Mathilde (who used to babysit for DD1 when she was tiny, and went back to France) has come back to visit, and they're sitting reading stories together now. She's SO lovely - I wish she was still around! Got a friend coming round tonight, so I might try to get out for a bit and see if that helps.

daisyandbabybootoo · 19/09/2007 16:31

wow Jamantha, that is very brave of you! Like most mums she probably knows how isolating it can be. I was speaking to another mum at WW this morning. Her LO is 5.5 months.

And I will get back to the baby cafe tomorrow...i certainly need help with my latch.

babyboo is feeding like a mad thing now.....toys were obviously just too interesting earlier. Jamantha she has only shown an interest in the last day or so. I think it's probably cos it smells of her big brother that she likes it so much.

Annobal, holly was selling a maclaren techno xlr...and I bought it

but you can get a techno xt on ebay for £115 delivered

foxybrown · 19/09/2007 16:39

Good for you jamantha - hope this is the start of a long and happy friendship!

Am sorry to hear some of you are feeling sad. This is a tough job, only advice I can give is take each day as it comes.

foxybrown · 19/09/2007 16:40

And Daisy, well done - thats a packet of butter! think of it as lard and its way more satisfying!

I think you've every right to be pissed off DG

daisyandbabybootoo · 19/09/2007 16:55

how did you get on foxy?

dg sorry things are miserable for you. Its a good jod you've got the au pair therre. I hope you're feeling better soon

babyboo has been clamped on for 50 minutes now....I definately spoke too soon earlier

bumperlicious · 19/09/2007 16:59

hi all, jamantha, well done for being so brave.

BZ sorry you are having a bad day. hope you manage to get some time to your self.

feeding is not going well. each feed today, though i have managed to eventually feed her it's been preceded by 20mins of refusal and her getting upset. My mum managed to stay mostly restrained, (mostly because i made a concerted effort to make it not seem like a big deal) and only suggested i give her formula twice. i don't know what to do.

daisyandbabybootoo · 19/09/2007 17:10

bumper, I don't know what to suggest.

Is she maybe teething? or just realising that she can influence things around her?

I've bumped your thread!

riabutterflew · 19/09/2007 17:14

bumper, i have no advice either, sorry. maybe she was excited cos your mum was there so her surroundings were different? i was crap at bf with ds1 and had given up by now, it got easier with ds2&3 but that's no help to you. if dd is putting on weight ok stick with it, but don't be afraid to give a one-off ff to give yourself a break.

bumperlicious · 19/09/2007 17:16

I have one ebm feed. saving that for tonight if I can. I just worry that too many bottle feeds will make it worse.

TALLULAHBELLE · 19/09/2007 17:36

Annobal - cn i ask, did u have all yr wee ones here or were u in Oz for the older ones?

Jamantha · 19/09/2007 17:39

Bah! DD has cried since we got in, apart from when feeeding. Give it a rest child!

TALLULAHBELLE · 19/09/2007 17:41

sorry Bumper - missed yr post. Sorry u having hard time with b/f again, & in front of yr mum too. Were u anxious cos DM there & if she's gone is DD feeding any better?

bumperlicious · 19/09/2007 17:51

I don't think so T, has been going on for the past day or so. I was deliberately calm when my mum was here so I don't think that was it. I'll see how it goes tonight. My bf group isn't till tues but there is one in a nearby town tomorrow so might go along to that.

riabutterflew · 19/09/2007 17:53

to say i cooked that it was rather yummy.

am still hungry...

bumperlicious · 19/09/2007 18:03

I was like that my first few days of WW but got used to it now.
