Thanks Caro, I have seen a LC and she is coming back tomorrow to see us. I have been told about Karitane day stays and they are just around the corner from me, so I will see how we go for today. The LC said she's a bit lazy and has a bad sucking action, though I think she's getting it slowly. Sometimes I think it is because Lily gets so agitated and seems so hungry she just gets cranky and can't latch on well- she scratches me and waves her arms about and arches her back. Once she's had half a feed and I change her nappy I can usually get her on ok and during this part I don't use the shields to try to toughen up my nipples. My boobs are less full today thankfully so she has been able to get on better and we had a whole feed without shields- wooohooo! I do have to take the meds until finished and come off slowly, or so the dr says, I have a few more days on them then I'm on my own. Luckily for me though she sleeps really well (knock on wood!) at night- for about 3 1/2hrs at a time so feeding isn't getting to me too much- I haven't cried over it for a few days now, LOL. I think I have some blocked ducts, does anyone know how to unblock them? (TMI warning!) Since I have kind of scabs on them, I think when they are healing they are getting blocked, I don't want to get mastitis after what I've been through with bf!
I can't believe that some of you are going out! I can't do much else other than feed, change, settle, and tidy up! THe other day I even forgot to have a shower for myself until my DH asked if I'd had one, hehehe! I don't think I could co ordinate an outing just yet!

Anyway ladies must go hang out some washing...happy Sunday! (It is Sunday today isn't it????....LOL)

Kel.
