Cass - Ahhh smell-less pooh's - what a dream! Yeah we're on the fastest teat anyway and have been for a while 'cos she's still on the thick formula. Sometimes I actually think it might be a bit too fast. I've still got the trillions of different bottles I wasted money on trying, so I thought I might actually buy a fast avent teat and try an avent bottle again for a change for her. Who knows!

Storm - Thanks heaps honey. I do sit in front of the tv, but I do also glare at the bottle as it's going down. Last feed I tried to be a bit calmer like you suggested. We had a 200ml feed which is the best we've had for a long time. Thanks! Well done to Zac on sitting and I'm so glad he is feeding better for you. Has he picked up with his solids too?

Georgie - Nah the support I get from all you guys in an absolute godsend, and it always sounds sincere! Lucie has one of those rings too and loves it. I took her for a swim yesterday and dunked her under for the first time. She was pretty shocked but didn't seem to mind too much! Well done on the Masters, I take it that it's via coursework and not thesis? Blurgh on Engineering, but imagine how very employable you will be when you finish.

Thanks Jo too. Yeah Lucie is pretty ok at feeding herself. Makes a big mess though! Might just give her some toast tonight and see how she goes with that. I gave her a milk arrowroot biscuit last night and I think after all the mess, she ate about half which isn't too bad. What else do you give Sammy as finger food?

Well you'll all be proud of me - today I finally made it to mum's and bubs yoga and I soooo wish I had done it earlier! It was great to do some exercise and just chat to some other mums and pg ladies. Lucie was the oldest bub there (and I kept getting - wow she's tiny ) but it was so much fun. It's been great to get out and interact a bit. They do a talk at the end too with a speaker. Today it was supppose to be on PND, but unfortunately the woman didn't show. You know I really think that I have been suffering from it for all these months. But anyway on a happier note, I am feeling a lot better with myself. I realise that Lucie's feeding is beyond my control, I just have to keep reminding myself of that. I even went and had my haircut today and DH has Lucie now in the pool giving me some time off - it's been months, literally!

So another big thank you to you lovely ladies. You mean so much to me!
