Suse - thanks so much for your thourough reply on cloth diapers. I really want to give them a go but our first experience was terrible (every one i tried leaked everywhere). I'm hoping once he grows a bit more the diaoers will hold better.

Hoody - I'm so sorry to hear you're having troubles with BF as well. My prob is different from yours but I can still completely sympathize. It's awful to want to BF so badly but have it go so badly. Hang in there, 48g isn't that much and maybe now that she's settled she'll start gaining more. I had a friend whose baby was crying so much it was burning too many calories up and she was losing too. Once they got the crying sorted out she started gainig beautifully.

Dragonbub - It's funny cuz I know FF isn't the end of the world but I feel like I'm letting DS down somehow if I give up on the BF. I've tasted both BM and formula and blech formula is so yucky, though DS didn't seem to mind when I gave it to him. My DH is very pro BF and won't let me give up which helps keep me going too.
