Hi All

Freya - Oh that's very exciting for you!! I've always been supportive but suspicious of CMP. I think they're great for low-risk women who stay low risk but when I just don't like that they still bring in all the policy, procedure and political drama to it. I'm a part of a Homebirth Due in Group on Facebook and a few of the women are in CMP's and I feel sad watching some of them fight to stay in the programs. Its so touch and go.

Bella - Glad to hear that Eddie is on the mend How's he sleeping now? I've finally managed to wean Daley off the breast now. I haven't had any milk or colostrum for about 5 weeks so he's been dry sucking since then. He's been completely off the breast for about 1 and half now and although he still grabs for my boobs etc, he's going great guns. Our next step is trying to get him to self settle to sleep. At this point we're cuddling him to sleep and TBH i'm ok with that too.

Tegam - 5 weeks already!!!! My god that went quick!!! Sorry to hear your nipples are sore I don't miss that pain. I've not had a baby with a lip tie but I know people that have and both have had them snipped. I'm not sure of the research on it sorry. I wish I could offer some better advice.

Hi to everyone else

I'm just chugging along here. 28 weeks on Friday. Had my GTT yesterday (which I was initially going to refuse but had it anyway) and gosh it was horrible. I was very tired and lethargic until bed time. Not much else to report really. Slowly gaining momentum in preparing my birth space. I pick up the pool next month. We also do a Birth Prep course then as well which I'm looking forward too.

I guess there isn't much else to do except enjoy the last trimester now
