    Stupid Question Probably

    But what do you do with your LOs when its hot and sunny outside - it seems too bright for G and he still lies on his back so ends up looking right up into the sky. What do you do on hot days like today to keep them happy? Ive got sunglasses for him from the trip to Dubai but feel a bit silly...

    Expressing less from left side

    Well title says it really. When I express I always get less from left side and even when my boob is full expressing doesn't get the milk out. I've got a medela swing and the right side seems much better. Does anyone else have this? Does this mean my left booby isn't makng as much milk?

    Hats off to all of you!

    I'm getting an insight into the life of a single parent with DH away for 7 months and it's HARD! I'm loving being a mummy overall but it does get relentless. I've at least got an end in sight when hubbie gets back at end of June. Just wanted to say well done to all of you doing a brill job on...

    Back from Dubai!

    Pointless thread but just wanted to say I'm back from seeing DH in Dubai. Had a brilliant time so great to see him and he loved seeing G. Flight out there was NO fun and it was too hot for LO in middle of the day but otherwise we survived it all pretty well. Now another 3 1/2 months to get...

    Not Sure What to do?

    Sorry in advance girlies as i'm not sure how understandable this will be. George is 7 weeks now and I have no idea if I should be trying to get him into a routine, I am exclusively breast feeding on demand which is going fine now. G shows no sign of sleeping through the night (generally 3hours...

    One of those Days!

    Expressing whist breastfeeding?

    Hi ladies, I have read on here before that a few of you express and then give LO a big bottle feed last thing at night to encourage sleeping through the night, this sounds like a good idea and I would like to try this but I'm not sure when I should. My question is how old was your LO when you...

    Breastfeeding Mummys

    It took me and George a few days to really get the hang of feeding and in that time he did a bit of damage, I am using Lanohlin (sp?) and the cabbage leaves in the fridge to help. Nipples are pretty sore still and have red marks, please someone tell me that they get better and it doesnt hurt so...
