Macey is now 21 weeks, i was planning on beginning BLW at 6months, just wondered whats the earliest anyone else has started? I ask because this last week Macey is switching from having 4 hourly feeds to starting getting grouchy after 2 and a half hours i can stretch it out to 3 during the day...

Since Macey has been around 12 weeks old i have been like jekyl and hyde, my poor OH cant do anything right, one day i can be fine and planning the future, etc etc, the next i hate OH guts and want to leave, he has done everything for us, the cooking, housework, and working full time, i just sit...

Macey is out of sorts, she has rosy cheeks, is chewing her fists, feels hot but temp is 36.2C, my first thought is teething but then she has also been having a bottle every 3 hours instead of 4, would she want more food when teething or is it a growth spurt or both!

Macey seems to prefer sleep to milk and so now only has a bottle at 8am, 12am, 4pm, and 8pm she will then sleep through 12 hours, i am not complaining but she isnt increasing what she drinks in the day she has just gone up from 150 to 180ml bottles but she was having 5 of those, i am just...

I am being given conflicting advice depending on who i ask, one doctor said wait a year, another said wait 2 years and then lastly i was told to wait 3 periods and i would be fine :shock: Now i want a 2 year gap between my children so would be around dec 2009 when i would start trying and...

Macey was 11lb 4 oz at birth at 37 +5 gestation, she then went down to 10lb 3 oz within a couple of days due to the gestational diabetes i had in pregnancy they said this was a normal weight loss We then spent 11 days in SCBU where her weight increased apart from when i tried to exclusively...

I really wanted to breastfeed Macey from day one, she ended up in SCBU with a feeding tube, then they brought her down to me on the ward and we breastfed really well for a day, then she had to go back in SCBU, i couldnt go up onto the ward as i wasnt well enough so they ended up giving her...

Better late than never, she is 15 days old now but we have only been out of Hospital since Tuesday and we have been busy getting into the swing of things! Read and enjoy, i tried not to let it be too gory!

Apologies for my late birth story but spending so much time in hospital, its the first time i have had chance to take stock and write it all down! Went in Thursday at 3pm 28/08/08 for a planned induction, the Midwife examined me and i was still 1-2cm dilated as i had been on Tuesday when i was...

Hi everyone just popped out of hospital for afew hours to try and regain some sanity, Macey has been in SCBU since birth 8 days ago minus one day when i had her on the ward with me :( Had a bit of an epic birth story which ended in an emergency c section and the birth of my beautiful baby...

Well it went well! She said before she started that she might not be able to do it as my cervix may be too high up etc etc but i got excited when she said "oh i am surprised! she said i have my fingers on your babies head :shock: this kinda freaked me out abit! Apparently i am 1-2 cm dilated...

I was going to start taking Raspberry Leaf tablets this week but seeing as i am having a sweep in a week and induction in 9 days, is it worth it? Does anyone know how soon they make a difference? :think:

Had another consultant appoinment today with growth scan etc, - her growth has slowed down now so she has put the average pound on in the last 2 weeks, so the insulin increase seems to be doing the trick :cheer: However she now weighs in at approx 9lb 11 oz so i being induced next thursday...
