I have absolutely No idea what your talking about... I hate dail up... I have tried to get into facebook, but can't and I think its because my server is soooooooooooooo slow!! but I will be getting satelite soon... so watch out face book...

[luua]

We're on there. Look for Ann Luu

Tara- sorry to hear it was so tough last night. If it doesnt feel right then you're right to stop.

Went for a bush walk today in the national park. Ella spent the time in a back harness on DH. She was saying mum mum all the way coz she couldnt see me.

I should be in Christy's friend list.... when in doubt.... search for BellyBelly members group and u will find me there... plus a stack of others!! LOL

[taralee]

Trying something different tonight - bottle of water instead of mummy milk, plus didnt do a feed right before putting her to bed so patted and rocked for 15mins, which wasnt so bad.
I am stressed to the max about what to do when she wakes up..as in, i'm not going to feed her just give her water and hope for the best. BUT i am rock hard so am going to have a shower to express. amazing how it was like liquid gold all those months ago now i have so much of it frozen that i can watch it go down the drain...oh well, a good problem to have i guess
BTW Christy we are up at 5 eeevvverrryyy morning cos of those birds...and the fact that as soon as i brought evie home from the hospital i said 'no getting up before sunrise, which ive always stuck too but didnt count on summer coming so soon and the sun coming up so early!

[visitor1]

Send your liquid gold down my way then Tara....

Im on the countdown...20 days to goooo!! And wishing the days would go faster. Ive been in bed all day cos been so sick. At least Chelsea was at FDC.....on that topic... this morning she got a bit clingy and didnt wanna go to her carer.. then tonight she couldnt get into my arms fast enuf....

Not sure what that all ment tho...

Tara, i hope you don't mind me asking, but where is the pressure on you, to night wean, coming from? You sound stressed about it, and you obviously have the supply, so why are you doing it? Maybe you have mentioned it already and my memory has forgotten. I just keep reading how you are stressed out trying to do it, and i keep thinking "Why is she putting herself thru that stress?". Sorry if i'm asking a really obvious or dumb question. (or one you've already answered heaps before). If it's too personal to answer online or something, no worries, just pass, and i'll be fine with it. Just don't like to think of you stressed out hon.

I've been told by people to put bilbs on formula, so i can sleep all night. I'm not good at expressing milk.

I'm on facebook too, so i'm going to try and find you too Ann, Christie and Janelle. I didn't know there was a belly belly group there, but i'm on several groups too (with my mummy hat on lol).

Luua, the bushwalk sounds lovely

[taralee]

Gigi, it just seems that getting up so much in the night is silly to me. Everytime i get up and feed her i think 'this is ridiculous - she eats soooo much food during the day, she's not really hungry and i'm not helping her put herself back to sleep by feeding her'. Not that i disagree with night feeding or anything - it was kinda just something i felt like i needed to address - i dont know if that really makes sense or not!
anyways - water was a no-go last night so of course i ended up feeding. i think i'll just stick with the gradual feeding for less time.
one of my gfs is into this facebook biz-o, so i might get into it too!!!

[Olive]

tara when we went through waking up at night, ok it was only once, but after two weeks i decided to cut back on the amount she had from both side, to one, then down to a couple of minutes to virtually a few sucks in my arms in her room, then straight back into bed and that worked for us.

kim OMG 20 day s left wow thats gone fast!!!

must go dig up the guessing game
