.

I wanted to breastfeed for a year.
I never thought I would CIO/CC even a little.
 
I wish I didn't worry myself about weaning, Alfie didn't care for food really until he was 9 months - 10 months, and I worried myself sick as everyone else's 4/5/6 months olds eating 3 meals a day lol but he is a perfectly fine eater now I wish I hadn't stressed about it so much and enjoyed it more!!
 
Nothing :D

Literally the only thing I want to kick my own face in for is, I wish I'd got the newborn photos the Bounty photographer came round and took, my family convinced me it was a waste of money but I soooooo wish I had :(

I wanted them too, but they never came :( sad times..

They came and took Noah's, and I can even remember it now, it was soo cute, but my dad said not to buy it cos it was a rip off and my uncle could take some instead cos he's a photographer. He's only ever taken 2 pics of Noah when he was 3 months old and yeah they are cute but I wanted one the day he was born! :( What annoyed me even more was I found out when he was like 10 months old that you can go on the website and order previously taken pics but they only go back 6 months or something, I was so annoyed!! xx

I wish I had more photos of her when she was just born. There's one of me holding her and one which is like a myspace pose :haha: of me, OH and Isla. That's it :(
I have like ZERO pics of me and Isla. I should try take more.
 
i wish i'd gotten some proper photo's when kaya was first born instead of blurry ones :( oh well ... this time round i definately will be.
 
Wish I did more of those make a cast of your baby's foot/hand things.

More pictures

Didn't listen so much to other people.

Went out more when she was little, I rarely walked out the gate in case she needed to be fed for the first 4ish months
 
I wish things had of worked out for us breastfeeding wise.

Other than that we are happy at the moment :thumbup:
 
I wanted to make my own baby food but Erin really isnt interested that much in food and what she does like, comes from a pot! So as long as she eats something, thats fine with me.
 
I wish i had taken alot more photos and kept a proppa little diary of eveything.

Also that i breastfed for longer than i did
 
- More pregnancy photos (week by week to see the bump grow would have been nice)
- Get a bump cast (thought about this but then thought 'where the hell will I keep it?')
- More newborn photos or some done professionally. (I was too tired to even think about it)
- Breastfed exclusively. I really did try but I had loads of problems with being sore etc even though he latched on and was a fab bf'er. REALLY hope our next baby is a good BF'er and that I can try again.
- Only used home made food rather than jars. my cooking has really improved now i've moved out of my mum and dad's and i'll try harder next time.
 
Only one but it's not really a regret as i didn't have a clue that you could just go and bath your newborn without the nurses calling you to help.. she had her newborn photo taken when she was still all blooded up and i didn't realise i could have bathed her so she could have looked all nice and clean :( oh well, i still bought the photo as my mum persuaded me, i wasn't going to buy it because of that but she bought it for me xx
 
i wish i could have enjoyed the newborn days more than i did. I was in so much pain from breastfeeding and definitely had post baby blues if not a little PND. All i remember from the very beginning was being sad :(
 
i haven't done too badly - although now looking back there are things i wished i did which i wasnt that fussed about at the start

i wish i co slept now as joel seems to sleep so much better in bed with me but i only have a single bed which now i share with my OH so there was no way to do it.

i wish i did more babywearing - i hated my carrier so only used it a few times, have a new one on the way though!

i wish i took more newborn photos and videos, i really wish i did a video at the hospital of his first moments. i wish i got foot casts.

i wish i bought my pushchair sooner because my silvercross 3D was a huge mistake (although luckily i was given it for free) i haaated it and had many hellish public transport journeys because of it

i wish i used my cloth nappies more, i'm sort of doing 60% disposable and 40% cloth at the moment as a sold a large stash of nappies and haven't completely restocked them

i wish i went to some baby groups/sure start centres - just didn't feel up to it at the time
 
I wish I slept more when he was first born so the first while wasn't just a blur.
I wish I didn't spend so much money on chairs/swings etc and bought a better camera.
I wish I prepared for his arrival better and didn't listen to my Mum.
I wish I breastfed for longer and didn't express for 4 months.
I wish I videoed his first few moments.
I wish I dressed him more like a baby when he was first born, like sleepsuits rather than 2 piece outfits.
I wish I took more photos of him, especially with family members.
I wish I enjoyed my pregnancy more, and used it to my advantage..

I'm going to stop now, but there is lots more :haha:

agree! i thought taking her out in sleepsuits was weird but looking back the outfits just look silly because she was so small they all bunched up!
