CSS tell her not to buy too much!

People are SO generous when a baby comes I was overwhelmed by the amount of gifts I was given & with so many well-wishers wanting to send her stuff she may well be swamped!

(or rather YOU will be!!)

Another thing that was fab was a small portable radio for those graveyard-shift feeds - at least I had the bbc world service, even if no one else could hear me scream!

And a little notepad to jot down which boob you're feeding on and how long she fed, because you may not remember for the next time (okay, that may only be for control freaks like me who tried to do 3-hr feeds and not on demand ...)

All quiet on the advice front- thinking of you Fran as the time approaches!! xx

Oh was looking for this thread the other day, hope your ok fran bit sad to see you are not with us anymore, hope you & Molly are ok & wishing you a very Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year

Thinking of you, Fran, at this time!

I second the radio idea.

Sometimes, during the late night feeds, you can feel a little isolated, like you're the only one in the world up.

This can feel pretty special, like it's just you and little Molly alone in the entire universe.

But other times, when you're just really tired, that voice on the radio reminds you that others are there along side you.

waves to Fran through the ether in case she's lurking

Hope you're not getting too uncomfortable Fran....not long now !!!

hey everyone,

sorry i've not posted yet, didn't know where to post, it;s all so confusing when your brain is mushed with children and pregnancy!

Fran - hope all is well wherever you are and that Molly comes safely.

you definately without a doubt need a sling! either a ring one or a wrap! i can give URLs of where to get them if you want to know

hope you're not too uncomfortable.

Just bumping this to wish Fran a Merry Christmas- I know she lurks sometimes

Not long now Fran & you will have your very own bundle.........

Here's to 2008 being a happier year for you both & all your family.xx

wishing you and Molly a very happy Christmas, Fran!

bossybritches · 06/01/2008 20:14

Bump for Fran & Bump!!

I THINK if I remember rightly Molly should be born by now but if she's overdue poor Fran will be at the Very Fed Up stage!!!

waves to Fran if she's lurking

peatbogfaerie · 07/01/2008 10:45

another bump 'n' wave -- have you got a cosy wee bundle ..?

bossybritches · 08/01/2008 21:24

Oh I hope so by now- after all she's been through I expect she'll just sit & gaze in wonder at Molly's lovely little face & never put her down!
