Well, I have resisted temptation to just give it all up, and I have done 3 x BF & only one bottle today. My right boob is still a bit sore, but it is better.....thank Christ for that lanolin stuff. My gob is still sore, and it means I don't fancy eating anything at all, cos it hurts, but I have been drinking loads of Jalna drinking yogurt, which is great for BM, but shocking for Charlies poos and he has now got his first case of nappy rash, poor little sprout......arrhhhhgg!

So my next goal is simply to get to New Year.....my pride insists on that, cos Andrew's mum is here over the duration of Christmas and she is passionate about BF, so I don't want her to think I have "given up" IYKWIM? (She is a lovely MIL, but it is more my pride!)

Then I'll review...........so Debbie, you're right....it is all about milestones that you feel comfy with......if I can get to 5 months, then getting to 6 months will seem close, and I kind of think I will be able to make it.

I know what you mean about non-maternity bras........I look lovingly at my nice white lacy sexy non udder bras quite whilstfully....they are there, waiting for me.......along with my clicky heals, my teeny tiny handbags & my fags!!
