    Rach its fantastic!! Aaron did one for millana.We downloaded a free program from windows and it brought me to tears.Well done.It took aaron 3hrs to do millanas an we still need to tweak it.
    Millana slept in a big girls bed twice! In the arvo and last night.Mind you i had to sit there for reassurance but this morning she was sitting up playing in her bed! Im so happy to get her out of the cot as ruby will need to be out of the bassinet shortly.
    Ruby had a great night.Slept from 730pm to 11pm and then till 1130-4am and now sleeping still!
    Okay come back later as hubby wants the desk for paperwork!

    Charli- I find the first feed in the morning is the best time to express. i can usually get 80-100mls where if I try in the evenings i struggle cause it gets low at that time of the day. Also if you are just getting small amounts you could just freeze these each day so by the day you are planning to go out you'll have enough.

    Rach75- that video is fantastic, bought tears to my eyes. I'd love to do something like that. Was it hard, how did you do it?

    Laurin- I've bought the new tomee tipee bottle to try tonight, it does actually look like it will be the best cause they've made it to resemble a nipple. so we'll see how we go but decided this will be the one we will perservere with.

    I have no idea how to express while bubs is on the other boob. I forgot who sugessted it, tried it but no way would it work! I need extra pair hands.

    We are off to the GP today for our 6 week check so will be back later.
