anna - yep my friend got down to about 48kg before losing her milk. You are doing such a good job so still be able to bf. I do hope you manage to put weight on soon though. I know easier said than done, with some people their weight just drops off while bf, for others, nothing happens! Take care of yourself.
maz - thanks heaps for the link. Silly puter wouldn't work for me before. I'm gonna give it a go. Good to hear you're feeling a lot better.
I'm gonna hit the shops. Haven't been for a while. Have a good day girls.
Too tired to do questionaire, we had **** night too, up 5 times with Ash now today cause she's not slept properly she is very grumpy and whingy and just wants to be carried! I feel like crap.
Hey all,
my names sarah im a mother to identical twin girls. My friend nessa uses this so she told me to give it a go. She said that you were all very nice. look forward to chatting to u all.
Wow Anna, you must be eating a lot - that's some super metabolism you must be running there!
I'm really blessed my supply is so good, not so much because I'm losing weight, but because I have been eating like crap! On Monday I had 2 pieces of toast and 3 pancakes and that was all :eek: We went grocery shopping yesterday though, so I've got some decent food, and I'm really going to make an effort to eat well. I'm a bit worried I'm not giving Riv the nutrients he needs. Ah well. He seems happy enough at the moment, at least he's got his hands to chew on - wonder if they provide any nutrients!
Glad you're feeling more cheerful Maz!
And hope you feel better Rach!
Hmmm...speaking of food. I'm a bit hungry! xo
ETA: Ohhh Shell, hope Ash has a sleep for you!
And hi Sarah! Twins, wow! And almost 2yrs old! Yeah this is a great site to chat on, have a look around! Were your girls born in March 05? April? Cos I think there's a 'born in March 05' thread or something too!

How are you feeling/adjusting? great absolutely love being a mum, love Jesse and DH more than anything in this world, they are my absolute life and i couldnt bear to go through aday without them.
Went to a friend's place today, had an absolutely awesome day.. Jesse was absolutely perfect.. didnt complain once, was all happy with smiles, fell asleep on the floor with no hassels and even waiting till we got home to do a poo!
It seems just to be with the MIL that he's like that..
Maz.. you broke your toe??? Ouch you poor thing!
Jodi/Anna**/Caddie/Shellbell.. aww you poor mums last night.. i hope you were able to rest some today
Anna**.. i feel week and drained all the time too.. mainly when im home during the day. Ive tried even making sure i have a proper breakfast too and everything.. im still getting heaps of sleep at night.. i have no idea why i feel that way.. maybe because before Jess i was at work and constantly stressed and now i havent a stress int he world its as if my bodys just completely relaxed? Who knows.
Yeh i tend to agree with the brestfeeding vs formula costs. We spend $19 per week for Jesse's formula.. i was paying more than that when i was breastfeeding for my vitamins and to make sure i had a properly good diet.
Rikki.. wow thats great news! Its heartmelting when they react like that to something you taught them Ive just started trying to get Jesse use to words.. like, he knows what bottle and bath are.
HAPPY 4 MONTHS RILEY!
Rach.. oh how annoying is that! I always try and make Jesse's appointments for first thing too as sitting in the waiting room for too long and be annoying for both of you.
I would see how he goes, if he starts getting irritable then id give him the panadol. Hope youre feeling better after you nap.
Sarah(twins_Mummy31).. Welcome.. ohh wow twin girls! Yes this site is very addictive!! Look forward to getting to know you.
Ok gotta run.. jess is getting grizzley..
Ahh no wonder its dinner time!
Ciao for now
Ps.. hi everyone else!!

Warning: selfish post, I promise I'll be back to offically care for you girls in the morning
Sigh. I feel so depressed because my house is messy and I can't get enough done and I get NO help (okay, he puts the bins out once a week) from Rans. But I don't want to be grumpy, cos I'm sick of feeling angry and grumpy about it - I'm sick of *****ing and fighting and nagging all the time, I just want it to happen and it doesn't. I'm sick of us watching tv and him going and getting himself something to eat for tea and not getting me anything. I just hate hearing myself speak, I sound like a cow. And then if Rans does do something, like change a nappy, I feel bad cos I nagged him to do it.
Anyway. I'm sure now that I have this out of my system I'll be much more cheerful tomorrow.
Better get myself something to eat Night girls xo
Nelle - Big hugs to you hon, one of my pet peeves is when people say 'just let the house get messy, nobody cares'... well, I (and obviously YOU) do care and it is really hard when you like your place just so and you are unable to actually get it done. I don't blame you for getting grumpy about it, nobody likes to have to nag just to get the simple stuff done. It'd be nice if one morning you got to wake up and say, the vacuuming or dishes had magically been done.
Sorry that I don't have any advice on this one, but I do understand where you are coming from.
If I lived closer to you, I'd offer to look after Riv for a few hours so you could get on top of it all.
Nelle,i like a tidy house and get a stress attack when its not.I spent all day cleaning today and when aaron got home he didnt even notice.He had a shave and put his hairs everywhere!!!
Well,ruby is driving me bonkers.Took me until 930pm to put her into bed and i had to rock her.During the day fine.Same routine and all and she goes to sleep in day.I need to read pinky's book again because i just get fustrated and ****ed off.And i been up since 3am last nite!!
Maz,that toe does look owy.I can see the swelling and bruising.
The highlights today was ruby giggled for the first time and she laughs like millana!! She thought playing ball was great fun.And i lost another kilo so 7.5kg loss for me now!!!
