Janno Hungry, I feel starving constantly!!!! Good luck building your supply!
As for the dribbling & the rash it can cause, wipe the area dry as often as you remember & smear Bepanthen or similar on it to prevent it from getting gooey!

I hope you coped at MG Megan, if you did end up going...

Hee hee @ eaves dropping on builders!

Floss, nice to see you pet, I use a HAB almost daily with Zy & he loves it...
He does every 3rd day or so a super poo which leaks out all over the place, luckily with the Cloth nappies & a cover it isnt too much mess, not like when in bali using disposables!
We have strange blinds on our bedroom windows that dont close & so it's always light in the room when Zy goes to sleep during the day...

V, from experience I'd say "Lend baby clothes, items, things ONLY if you dont wnat them back"
Guaranteed, that even if I have pointed out out to the various persons I have leabt stuff to, that I WANT it back, I have either not received it back & had to buy again, or it was not looked after & therefore useless!

So if you want to use it again DONT lend it!!! A huge mistake I have learnt!!! So many things that ended up ruined or by lending it out, you then feel guilty by having to ask for your own item back! Which sucks!!!

Just quickly - Tracey or Bec (as I know you both have HABS) have you put Zy or Xavier in the HAB facing out yet? I wondered if I might try Charlotte??

Hi all,

Jemima, yep he likes facing out, he can see the world, because he's a big sticky beak. but it is awkward when he falls asleep, and it works better when nathan wears him as my boobs pushing him to far forward. But I found it a really good way to eat when I go out with friends.

Mr's Daisy, I believe you. Our child birth educator said something similar happened to her daughter. She had a bath with her baby and had really long hair. Some of her hair got around the little one's big toe and they didn't notice. That babies toe got blue before they realised. So good job to you for finding it so quick.
on the builders. They might be pretty nasty looking themselves. I know what you mean about toys, argh noisy ones. see if you can get them to buy those wooden ones. very trendy atm. and no batteries. i like your sports girl idea after all he doesn't want mum embarrassing him in old clothes

jan if your craving maybe count your calories for a day or 2 just to check that your getting enough, esp if your bf. your body might just be trying to tell you something??

Tracey, re lending, that is the exact reason I didn't borrow things when they were offered to me. I didn't want to be the wrecker.
Question. what exactly does activite have that increases supply, and would milo do it too??

Megan i hope you got out of the house. do you take a blanket and toys with you. I've found the distraction sometimes helps if Xavier can lay on the floor. do you live far from where you meet. I walk and it takes 30+ mins. so xavier has a nap on the way.
