    Kaz- Its weird, my sister had a similar rash flare up when she was pregnant and no one could explain it. She has always had sensitive skin tho, then after she had her son it started to settle so who knows. The wind drops are called infacol just at chemist.

    I am really ****ed at Df right now. He tells me there family day at local cricket, knowing his friends I have to ask if its a proper family day or him and his mates standing round drinking. Well ends up that yeah there are kids there but mainly people standing round drinking but Df happens to be the biggest drinker gets wasted and lies passed out on couch for evening while I'm trying to feed and get Ash ready for bed, settle a crying baby. And now he is acting like I am being a ***** cause I don't want to talk to him.

    Sorry bout the vent just very angry!

    Shell - THat is really not on. I understand why you must be mad.

    E is really unsettled tonight. Currently crying. J is also not asleep and whinging about going to bed. I am about to burst into tears from shear exhaustion.

    Hey girls
    just a quick one- got another migrane!!! DAMMM! Gonna have to do something about these damm migranes- nothing is hitting their sides and they keep on happening!

    Otherwise all good here- Mr L has been on the boob ALLL arvo- man!! from around 3pm till now - ah well what can you do!

    Just a quickie- are you girls wrapping your bubs- I find that if is the easiest way to settle bubs!! Wrap them really tight so that they cant escape- definately an art to it! Put one side of the wrap and one arm in and tuck it under their arm, then wrap over the other side and tuck in the other arm. Do it tight so houdini cant even escape!

    If Levi can escape then he wakes- if he cant- he settles- makes a huge difference- it did with my twins as well! Gotta keep those arms still and under control. Just an idea!!!

    mwah to all Be back when i can see properly again!

    ok this is going to be an incredibly shelfish post from me.

    i just need to get this off my chest as DF doesnt really understand.

    I feel as though i have failed my daughter, the one thing she relies on me for i cannot give her.
    I was almost in tears before buying a tin of formula at the supermarket.
    i had plenty of milk (and i mean PLENTY) and now each feed she is draining both boobs and by time her next feed comes they have hardly filled back up and she is starving after she 'tries' to feed.
    i was so ready to BF for at least 6 months as i failed with DS when he was born.
    I have drained myself physically and emotionally with this breastfeeding business and i could tell that bella was starting to pick up on it too....
    i hope i have made the right decision.

    Am i allowed to formula feed and breast feed untill my supply stops?
