Im getting the implant on 27th.. They said because ive had sex (once with a condom!) They need me to wait for either my period or give enough time for a pregnancy test Last night i dreamt i went back and i was pregnant!! As much as i love being a mummy all i have to say is sod that!! I dont want another one until shes around 4-5!
Aww no mand! Toothache is terrible, really hope it eases for you.

Hi Rach nice to hear from you
Me and Mia have our 6 week check this morn,ive still not got around to having my blood test that they told me to get on friday so am hoping they will give me some iron tablets anyway.
Not had Mia weighed so not sure how much she has put on but guessing by how heavy she is in my arms i would say she is about 4 stone she is a little chunky monkey but its quite deceiving as she is very little but heavy.
Me and oh did shifts last night as she had wind that she did not want to give up and she would not settle so we are both quite tired this morn,poor oh has a busy clinic to do today as well
Hope everyone is good  _________________

Mand hope u manage to get Mia settled tonight, I'm probably not much help as I breast feed but I'd go with staying up stairs to feed her, when I feed lily I just put my phone light so I can see and she falls asleep straight after a feed.
Katie glad u guys are good! I had lily weighed strayer day and she is 9lb15, she's about 10days older than Your Mia tho.
We are good generally, lily seems to be far more settled now which is good, she smiles so much I love it! And she's crazy strong on her legs, I think she may crawl quite early as she's already moving around if layed on her front!
We went to a mum and toddler group on Monday it was lovely to chat to other mums, Charlie enjoyed himself and lily slept the whole time!!
I've met a mum from netmums as well, her little boy as born on the same day as lily! She seems really lovely so I'm hoping to meet her again! That's about all I've done, oh except for read the first two 50 shades books! I'm hooked! I love the love story behind it, could take or leave the sex bit tho lol! I read the second book in 4days :S _________________ My beautiful children are my life! Tommy 9 and Charlie 2 and Baby Lily, Mummy loves you! xxx

Morning everyone how are you and the babys?
Things are settling here at last! Mia is now on medication for her reflux and a thickner for her milk and they seem to be doing the trick,feeds take a bit longer now but i can live with that! We have to feed her at a 30 degree angle and keep her upright for half an hour after feeding,i went and brought a Boppy yesterday as i had read a lot of good things about them and she loves it! And it means she is propped up nicely so its really helping with the reflux
She was weighed at her 6 weeks check and she was 10lb 4oz the little chunk
I am now on some iron tabs and the bleeding has stopped as well and the infection i had where my tooth was taken out has cleared up so we are well on the way to feeling good again!
Hope everyone else is good and the babys are doing well XX _________________

Happy birthday for yesterday Kell. Yes birthdays are pants when you get older.. I didn't do anything this year and wouldn't even have had a card off the kids if it hadn't have been for my MIL.
I got Alice weighed today and she's 10lb 4. Time is going so fast! _________________

Yeah cooled boiled water lol Does it actually work to get wind up or get rid of tummyache?
Uni was fine.. Quicker its over the better lol
How was lunch? Did u enjoy your birthday?
Im most likely not doing anything for my birthday either.. Although would really like a drink as i didnt have a drink for my 21st as i was pregnant... How much can you drink when breastfeeding?
Also when is it that babies stop needing breast/formula milk?
What sort of things do you do with your little ones to keep them occupied?

I don't really know if water works for wind to be honest I guess it's worth a try.
You can drink while feeding and how much is upto you really, it takes 1 hour for 1 unit to leave your body, as you are expressing anyway I would just give the bottles for the night feeds and probably until mid day, at the same time I would be expressing and throwing the milk away until the afternoon after you've had a drink.
Alcohol does transfer to your milk but I don't know exactly how much.
To entertain Lily I tend to talk to her or make silly noises, we do row row row your boat as well lol she's got a very strong head and holds it unaided for ages. She loves watching what the boys are upto as well, and laying on her back kicking and cooing! That's all you can do really until they are older! You'll notice she is more responsive and seems to see more soon which is lovely! _________________ My beautiful children are my life! Tommy 9 and Charlie 2 and Baby Lily, Mummy loves you! xxx

Not unless you are concerned they don't, they literally just check your tummy and ask how your feeling, they are looking to see if you may have PND mostly.
For her they will check height, weight and head circumference as well as hips etc, it's basically the same check they do when you leave the hospital with baby.
Poor Katie! Hope she's better soon, lily had a cold as well but nothing too bad, she was struggling to breath while feeding which was fun bless her, but now she's realised she can cough, so she has a little fake one which is adorable lol _________________ My beautiful children are my life!
