Back from holidays, and like Jaki80, I'm sick as a dog. Head cold has migrated south on to my chest, as if I wasn't having enough trouble breathing already...
A massive CONGRATULATIONS and welcome to KellyD and grub17! Great to see you ladies in here. Brunette - how exciting that there's more twins!
Chrissy - I hear you on the cloth nappy thing, and people poo-pooing it (pardon the pun). I want to try reusables too, once I get my head around having a baby to look after, but so many people scoff when you say it. I had a quick look at 2 life cycle analyses of reusables vs disposables (one in England, one in Oz), and they both said if you wash in cold water and line dry, the environment is better off than if you use disposables. If you can't be bothered explaining this, just tell em to butt out! Its your baby, and your bills.
KellyD - I drank a lot of milk in my first trimester when I was too nauseous to eat, often adding Milo, Akta-Vite or Sustagen Sports. (Actually, I still do drink a lot of milk! Always craving it) Maybe you could try it to up your protein intake?
Sorry for not many persies today, hope you're all well and happy, and cooking along nicely!
