    Sounds very similar to our pattern Nicola except I'm getting our mostly bottles of EBM and only 2 - 3 of formula.

    I'm over the night pump as well but the (.) (.) are so sore I have to in the end.

    The Motilium has been working a treat and my supply seems to be increasing daily.
    It a snag last night - I broke my electric pump after only a week!!! Well it was really a fault so DH is sending it back today and getting me another.. thank god we have a pharmacy! lol..

    PB - Thats great that the meds are working..I didnt even know about them until I was talking to my mum (child health nurse and lactation consultant) who has been staying with us for the past 4 weeks to help out and I was mentioning the lack of milk supply and she said thats the best thing to get. She has been great to have around and didnt pressure me at all about breastfeeding (I wasnt in the right head space) even though I get the guilts that I didnt try hard enough.....but she goes home today

    Hi ladies. Have been MIA lately. Jackson has been fairly demanding the last week or so with feeding almost every hour to 2 hours so its been really exhausting. He is doing really well though and has gained 1.4 kg since birth. We had his child health nurse check yesterday and she is very pleased with his process.

    I will have a better read and catch up later. I'll also get our list up to date too so its correct.

    I hope all is well with everyone. BBL
