As some of you know I finally weaned my daughter, (or actually she weaned me...) Just a few weeks ago. Since then sadly I have been gaining weight very quickly. It's hard to believe the difference it makes to my weight. While I was breastfeeding I was lucky enough to eat as much as I like without gaining weight, Infact I slowly but surely lost an extra 6kgs during the year I was feeding her. In the last three weeks I have gained three kgs! Scary.... very scary. So I need to do something about this otherwise I'm going to be looking like a giant marshmallow by this time next year which really isn't what I want. I've joined the weight loss group started on here and

Little miss one is precisely little miss 14 months and I have been wondering about weaning for the last few months, at first my goal was to breastfeed for 6 months and I was amazed and thrilled to have reached that goal then all of a sudden it got easier and the next thing I know she has turned one and I'm still breast feeding. She is quite a little girl and didn't eat much so I was thankful that she had that constant supply of nutrition from me. Nowdays she eats all day and has a suppy cup of water on hand all the time and in the last few weeks she has become increasingly grizzly during feeds, stops and grizzled and pokes and pinches at first I thought it was just her mouth

Well I've finally weaned my wee man off the boob,he's 21 month's now.I've breast feed all my kid's.Daughter was 22 months,oldest son 17 months & now youngest son 21 month's.After I'd finished feeding my daughter,I realised that I lost a full cup size of my boob's,but that was ok I still had ample ,so wasn't too worried.After I finishing feeding my oldest boy I hadn't lost any thing,but after feeding my youngest I discovered I'd lost another full cup size :(Now I wasn't big busted to start with,a C cup,now I'd be lucky if I'm an A cup.Even Hubby has commented on how small I am.Keep's saying he if had the money he

| The Strike is OVER!

Yippeeeeeeeeeeeeee- I'm so happy, relieved, thankful and a million other good feelings.The nursing strike is OVER... it lasted 4 days which is 4 days too long for me. I stuck by my bubs and gently coaxed him back. He's far too young to wean so I knew it wasn't that - but it was sure hard to be in that situation. He's 10.5 mths old.I had lots of positive encouragement from friends and read a lot of info about the difference between strikes and weaning. Glad I found those resources to help me thru it.I'm glad too, as the breastpump was a pain to use and you NEVER ever get all the milk out, so you tend to get into mind games thinking you don't have enough mil

So, i said to hubby awhile back, that i cant wait for my bubs to get her first tooth. Honestly, i was shaking with excitement of the thought of it.Then, last week, my lil placid angel had some hot to the touch bright red cheeks. OMG, she has a fever i thought. Nope, temperature was normal, panic over. Then, out of the blue she decided to stop eating ger baby cereal and pureed food. Again, i panic. Being a first timer at this whole mother, i was all about what did i do, what can i do, whats wrong OMG OMG OMG, PANIC!!! She then started refusing her day time sleeps. but sleeping through the night still, I decided, right tomorrow, if ya keep this up off to the doctors we go. Next morning,

So the two As have gone out to look at my car and pay the nice man who fixed it some money, Im home with my little Caibee and shes breastfeeding so the house is silent and im deep in thought, looking at the carpet that needs vacuuming, the pile of clothes that need folding and putting away and watching the rain and wind jostle the leaves on the trees outside. my brain is going super fast thinking about things - planning tomorrow morning etc when i suddenly find myself thinking about Caileys birth, remembering the midwife saying "isnt it amazing how they just know what to do" while she watched the head crowning and as i thought about it i felt a big smile stretch across my face, i rememb

Oh my gosh,I'm finally getting a chance to write this blog (been trying to for a few weeks now!!) Where to start? Well almost 11 months ago,I had my beautiful blue eyed babe Sterling,we had decided when I was pregnant that I would return back to work when he was about 5 months,it was a hard decision to make but as we earn just over $1000.00 over the threshold for any government help we really had no choice,doesn't make us a $1000.00 better,we still struggle to make ends meet!My returning to was delayed by 3 weeks as Sterling got sick a couple of days before I was suppose to start work & he couldn't have his 5 month imm's.So I returned back to work the day before my bi
