Yeah go Jamie on BB, Carmilla was fake even though she tried to make out she wasn't, she was so full of it!!!!

Kellee - glad you are coping ok on your own, its a tuff job just with one child let alone two, you are a super mum!!!!

Kim - antenatal reunion, how cool. We should of had ours by now too, should ring them up and remind them, would be good to catch up with others, seeing as I am not in a mothers group as yet, gosh they are hard to get into, keep missing places they only have such a small amount of ladies then close it off.

Shazz - good boy little Ryan, that is fantastic for you, now you should get out more often, will do you the world of good.

Tania - agggh so I had left, nope didn't hear you. Peads in Bundy, will type the story below. Wow Jayden put on alot of weight the previous fortnight didn't he?

Yeah Vic as you said that is the reflux formula but not for cow milk protein intolerant children. They only suspected he has that intolerance and for me to cut out dairy and see what happens, but if there is anything good that has come out of this, is that we can now see he is intolerant, gosh does this kid ever get a break. Good thing is he will more then likely grow out of it, thank god! Do your children drink milk now? Lachie is like adam, at the start could drag him out to 3 hours for feeds but god forbid if I did that now, although with this new swing, I am getting him to sleep a little longer then his 2 hourly feeds thank god, I am sick of expressing, I put him on the boob, he won't take, I heat a EBM, he drinks, then I have to settle him put him down go and express and start all over again!!!!!


Well everyone I am not sure if the paed got it wrong or Wade got it wrong. The paed told me over the phone to get Karicare Sensicare HA - gold, when Wade asked at the chemist there is no such gold animal, but there was HA and there was AR. Wade apparently told them well he has this cows milk protein allergy intolerance (CMPI), but he keeps getting confused with Lactose intolerance (and they are 2 completley different things), so who knows what he said but he said he told them CMPI, and they suggested the AR formula and they were wrong wrong wrong. When Wade went and saw the paed he said you should have just go the HA one. Grr..... Anyway I am not sure why he didn't just tell us to go try that one now, instead he gave a sample of neocate (it is a prescription formula and really dear and tasteless apparently). The neocate he told me at our appt that we will try off the shelf ones before we go to this one, but all of a sudden he is not mucking around with it. He said neocate is really bland and babies don't generally like it and to put vanilla essence in it. I gave him a bottle last night and he was ok with it so we will see how we go. I am still expressing, although he did feed off my boob at 4:30am and 7:30am this morning, grrr... this child has a mind of his own! I don't want to make a decision till we reach 3 mths so in the meantime will continue to express to keep my milk supply and only give him 1 formula bottle a night. I see the lactation consultant again on Friday so see how that goes. Gosh I miss my milk!!!!

Funny thing is at the start of bf I always had milk there my boobs were so full, so didn't really need a let down, so he is not use to working for it. Now he has to work for a let down because he feeds so regularly he just won't do it. I have never felt a let down when he feeds off me, but I am so good at this expressing now that if I persist for a good 5-10mins I feel and see the let down and I have always been told that this is really hard to do. I guess my body thinks the expressor is the baby at present lol.

Have a nice day everyone, hopefully we have a better one, go the swing again, I love this thing.
