rhi - well, i normally express b4 i got to bed coz i hate getting up in the middle of the nite to do so when i'm full n ella wakes up abt 3-ish so it gives the bb enuf time to make up bm. i can get abt 70ml or more..sometimess 100mls but depends. sometimes it's just abt 40mls or less too. 140ml should be more than sufficient for one feed. i doubt she will take in more than that. but extra wouldnt hurt - u can keep it if u dont use it. have fun!!

sonia - really???? cool!!! nice to meet a fellow kaki here!! hahaha....we used to live in JB but yea, i know what u mean. thx for the input - i knew i had to wait but MIL was the one who told DH abt it so I just wanted to find out. i'm also putting all juices on hold - i knew it sounded kinda weird. rhi explained the BM very well.

kim88 - thanks for that dear.

Hi

Rhi, glad you didn't get MS, i too had the heartburn but only in the last month. bit dark on your lack of stretchies, and for even being able to contemplate a bikini I'll never be able to wear one without feeling self consious. I used bio oil too, not heaps though, but i did put it in my baths, and I had lots of baths.
140 ml should be plenty. Xavier can drink anywhere between 100-200ml's in one sitting and you won't be far away, and it won't be her first or last feed for the day.

Misty, glad to hear your still going strong. Xavier watches the TV like that too. lots of bubs like having showers, and it's really easy, better if you have a second pair of hands though. I generally get xavier ready and hand him over to nathan once the water is good. A breast fed baby does not need orange juice or cereal, just milk. introduce cereal around the 5-6 month mark or at the advice of your doc or MCHN. There is plenty of vitamin c in your milk no need for OJ, and it's hard for bubs to digest. Mil mean well but really it has been a long time since they had a bub and so much has changed. My mIL told me she gave nathan jelly when he was 6 weeks old!!
On your problem I would probably suggest talking to your doc if your still having problems. It could be nothing, but then it can be related to your pelvic floor. 'cause when things aren't in the right spot it blocks your colon iykwim, and could explain why dtd is a little painful too. Good to rule that out as a possibillity becasue it could be really easy to fix.


Sonia lol at your methods of spewing at work. did you ever get caught out mid chuck?? Billings method is mainly on timing and learning what your body does and when. Did you chart to become pregnant?? if so that's basically what it is, if not if you search the net you will be able to find something. A lot of BB members use fertility friend, it has lots of info on the website too.
How cute will's name will be all over trucks, she will be famous.
