Meant to add last night....

Dh will post on fb for me when they're here, (he can't upload pics, working on that till tues....lol) but isn't telling anyone their names till he's told his family. Since 1 of them has his mum's name as a middle name, he wants to tell her face to face at the evening visiting then he'll go home and phone his sisters and brother. So we'll announce their names the day after. 3 sleeps now.....

oh, and if anyone wants to add me on FB, just PM me. Won't be able to get on here for a while with no fancy phone! lol GD doesn't seem to work on Dh's phone. xx

So exciting Inglewood! I'm sure everything on your list will be sorted over the weekend. My DH (me too actually!) can't do anything until it's the last minute and just has to be done! I'm off work on your big day so will be waiting with bated breath for your announcement. I wonder how big they'll be?

Have a great weekend everybody else. Such a bummer that the weather has been glorious all week and the forecast for today is rubbish! DS3's big boy bed is being delivered today so tonight we may have all 3 boys sleeping in one room (including one in a bed for the first time!). I don't have high hopes for much sleep! On a positive note, Cath Kidston were doing 15% off everything yesterday so I ordered him the cowboy print duvet cover, can't wait for it to arrive it's so cute

DH is waiting in for the bed today and I'm taking the boys to my neice's party at a soft play centre - just me and the 3 boys and a massive bump at a soft play on a potentially rainy, cold day. Help!!!

[Kell]

Sorry I've not been about!

Inglewood, how exciting for you! And a morning section will be so much better! can't wait to hear they have arrived and see pretty pink pictures lol.

Indigo wow! What a wonderful blog! And I agree I love the colours! So glad it's been helping you!

Zanacal good luck with ds3! We have the three boys in a room together when dp's so stays, it actually was surprisingly ok when we started out!

Inglewood - good luck!

I officially hate breast feeding! Four days into my thrush treatment but I'm still in agony. He is always hungry even after a hour of feeding. When I don't feed I'm sore, when I am feeding it's hell. I have been into drop in clinic twice at the hospital who said my latch is fine. I can't live in pain or keep going back to the hospital. I really want this work but it just isn't working. Don't know what else I can do. Surely it should be getting easier by now?

[Lavenderlime]

Maybe, it sounds hellish and you seem to be really sticking at it. I've never had thrush from feeding so have no clue how it feels so can't really imagine what you are goin through. But I do remeber the really hungry part well both my ds's were half hourly feeders but only at night. This lasted for a good two weeks when they were newborns and it was such a killer mentally being that exhausted. But the way I got through it was this is the here and now. It's not forever it's a relatively short space in my life where I feel pretty crappy but i'm doing it for the greater good and I know it will get better.
And of course it did. It all depends how much you want to feed? If you really want to stick at it KellyMom : keeping you informed about breastfeeding and parenting is a great source of breastfeeding advice. The thing with breastfeeding is it is natural but it's also a skill and some babies pick it up faster than others. it's such a shame that mothers get thrown obsticles such as thrush, mastisis, problems with latch etc.

You say it hurts when you not feeding if it's a burning full pain the best thing that worked for me was the disposable breast pads soaked in water popped in the freezer. They were really sothing and I always had a stash ready.

I hope things get easier if you continue to feed.

Thinking of you xx
