thanks everyone for your well wishes and support. she is booked in for a mastectomy on may 7th which she is dreading. will know more details over the next couple of weeks. feeling positive knowing that they have caught it early.

with Hamish and his feeding, thought that i would try to bf him every 2nd feed and see how i go with that. he takes to the top up bottle with no issues so i dont know why he isnt taking to me. i use the nipple shield every feed so i cant understand why he will have the bottle no probs but not me. going to express after every feed too just to keep my supply up. i always check his mouth and cant see any thrush at all. i did think of that to begin with but cos he has the bottle no probs, i figure he has a problem with me. a friend said that your milk changes flavour around now so maybe mine has and he isnt sure of the new taste. who knows.

insom - Hamish sounds very snuffly and i am still yet to go to the chemist and get some fess to clear his nose. its just saline so there is no drugs and its completely safe. if i was at work i would get some saline there and syringes but i cant!!! maybe try some fess too and see how u go.

big wave and hi to everyone xxx
