    No AF for me and no I'm not pg, just implanon! I love it! I had AF when Jazz was 8 weeks, then when she was about 12 weeks and haven't had it since!

    Breastfeeding is just about over now. I can now go for the whole day at work without expressing and while I still BF first thing in the morning and also when I get home from work, I no longer have that painful full feeling and I can go without BF without much hassle. I know there is still some milk though. I have decided that as soon as I have no more milk, I'm treating myself to a sexy bra!

    DJ woke up at 3am this morning and that was a rude shock for me, he normally doesn't wake-up until 5-5:30am eeeek I think it is the teething that is bothering him, poor bubba. I am on my second cuppa now to wake up....

    Danni - I have been thinking of getting one of those done actually. And good idea as a treat to buy yourself a sexy bra. Since I have finished breastfeeding I need to get a bra fitting so I can get some new bras. I am still using my maternity bras!!!!!

    I haven't had AF yet. I didn't get it with either of the girls til they were around 4 months. Even though I only bfed for 6 & 4 weeks.
    I still think I'm feeding too often to get it yet. I did have my depo needle when Jesse was 2 days old, but I lost my script for the second one & have been too lazy to go back to the doc. I'm pretty sure I'm feeding too often to fall pg, but we are being careful anyway. Well when it happens...
    I love the depo though. I don't get AF for the whole 3 months. I'm not game enough to get the implanon. I hate needles & the depo is enough! I've heard alot of bad stories too, so I'll avoid it for now.
    I'm finding my maternity bra's are really comfy. I reckon I'll probably keep wearing them after bfing. It would be good to wear a push up bra again though! To not have to worry about making sure I find them to wash every day - I only have 3 maternity ones, so have to make sure I keep up. It's too easy to forget to put one in with all the washing I've got!

    AAAAAAAAARRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH
    Poopy is now starting to wake up at 5!!!

    Dilemma - my manager sms-ed me yest saying there's training coming up just a couple of days after I get home. IT's a course I've been wanting to do for years and it's finally been approved.
    Steve will have to look after L for 3 days, which is goign to be really hard, as his routine/antics have changed so much since Steve last saw him. Plus I'll be goign so many hrs without bf.
    What do I do???? I really want to do the course, Steve doesnt mind looking after him, he's going to try taking a day off and working from home the other 2 days.But it's going to be hard on him cos L's changed. The course is in the city from 9-5..

    summy well done!! you're a big girl now!

    shell - hows dj feeling? what are those fluid retention tablets? can you take them while bf?

    still havent got AF yet...

    eeek - baldy awake. will try to post pix soon

    Teeth already. Scary! I keep sticking my fingers in Jazz's mouth to see if I feel anything. She chomps on my finger while I'm checking.

    Jazz tries to sit up by herself. She must have good ab muscles now coz when she's laying down, she'll do what I can only describe as "crunches" to try and sit up. She hasn't quite got the balance yet unless she doesn't squirm. We bought her one of those kid couch things that fold out to a bed so she sort of sits on that with a pillow to help prop her up, but she often slides down.

    Prama - Poopy is sooo cute in that pic!!!! He looks so strong holding his head up. DJ gets strong and then fed up after 5 mins from being on his belly.

    As for your course, if it is something you really want to do then do it just express your milk before you leave in the morning and you can always take a manual pump with you to course and just do it in the toilets if you are getting too full. I would do it especially since Steve has offered to look after him.

    DJ is still doing solid constipated poo's and he isn't even on solids. I spoke with mums today at mothers group and the older babies had the same problem they became constipated when teething, so that was a relief to know that.

    No you can't take this tabs when breastfeeding.... I have only started taking them, found they got rid of fluid before AF.....

    Trina - wow two teeth Yipeeee that is great news Trina

    Skye - yeah maternity bras are comfy but they never fit me properly anymore, so my boobs just don't look right in them. They look bigger than what they actually are....

    Well I better go, heaps of housework to do.

    LOL - he looks funny, such bald round head. he had some sandalwood paste straight after the shave, you can see someof it on the pix. it helps soothe and keep his head cool. it's funny, he still tries to grab his hair.
    shell - thanks, i might do that, take a pump with me, at tleast the hotel where the training is the bathrooms will be nice and clean.

    no teeth here eihter.

    hope dj's consipation goes away. can he take soemthing like prune juice without sugar to help him?

    we gave poopy some carrot/potato with a little formula, he ate it w a funny face, then threw it all up w some phelgm. poor baby.

    skye - are u on facebook?
    shell - havent replied to you there yet, poopy's better, cough almost gone and just a little stuffed nose.
