HELP!!!!!!
Kayleigh hasn't been too interested in boob for a while now, but would have 2-4 short feeds a day and formula and food. Today she kept biting me
And I mean bite HARD. I told her no and took boobie, and she cried because I said no firmly but didn't care to have boobie back... so I waited a bit and tried again and she kept biting me and not wanting to feed. I ended up giving her a bottle of formula as usual (which I do not mind in the least) and then tonight before bed she usually has some boobie and finishes off with a bottle and nope. Bit me again and cried to get away. Mark said looks like she don't want it for once, and I done her up a bottle and put her to bed and she is out like a light! She hasn't wanted boobie all day (had it two short times in the morning) 
I am scared to try too as it hurt so damn bad when she bit me!
What is a nursing strike and how do they work? I don't want it to be the end of nursing, even if we just cut back to morning and night feeds... I don't want it to end

I say interested in surroundings. I really do remember william doing this as I thought he was finishing on me then with bf but he didnt. He went back on gradually again. When they hungry they come back 
boiler ok, apparently water is so cold coming from the resivior it dosnt heat full so I have to put down the pressure to get hot water, no full blast showers like I like. I cant wait till spring comes now! I have flowers bought, more roses, I am obsessed with roses! love them.
pissed off with family, I had it booked the castle basement and all, discounted to near nothing the price and then what they do after all agreeing changed mind and want it in a pub with entertainment and a bar! theres a bar down in basement only not good enough for them,. So back to me not going now. I cant afford to go anywhere like that least with the plan they originally agreed with there was a caterer and i didnt have to pay as that was dads present, we had music and all set for it and since its sentimental as my granddad lived there in the 40s when it was a hotel and worked there we have found brochers from when it was a hotel upstairs and where going to show him and he could story tell. big fires in basement nice and cosy but no course not why listen to me! I know if my granddad knew he would come here and not some shity pub down town.

Been proudly breastfeeding for almost 7 months now! Was heading for 6 months but when I got there wanted to carry on not sure for how long taking it a month at a time. 
hpjagged! was my granddads birthday party. Had it all arranged after everyone agreed and then I get told they changed their mind the other day. I expected this before I arranged it now I will look like a fool cancelling it. My ones arranged a tour and didnt bother to arrive for it either that was embarrassing enough! I have to go and tell my landlord to un book it as its in spring and thats when wedding start so dont want to take up that day. I was going to have Williams party down there but I wont bother because my family arnt reliable and last time most didnt turn up for Williams party and the ones that did where an hour late and william was falling asleep waiting as it was his nap time time then. Was the reason I had it at the time I did and they messed that up, My parents stayed 5 mins and went away in demand of my sister. I aint wasting money renting that for no one to appear. Look again like a dick!
So I wont be going now. My mum wouldnt go if it was this place as it was dear now she seems in favor,. I have no money and no car, no way of getting two kids down there and home again and dont want to sit in a pub on a Saturday chasing a toddler with a baby breastfeeding. dosnt sound like fun. Intimate party with family friends with massive open fire, buffet in a place that granddad has fond memories sound better??
They never bother with me any way so why am I even bothered! my granddad is the one I always get presents for and want to see more of. He may not understand my ways and not being religious with my chlorine but has never ever opened his mouth about that or treated me differently unlike the rest.

Oh DF 
Sounds selfish to me! If your grandfather has fond memories of that place, it should be there... I don't understand I would love an event of mine in a castle!! You should move to Canada with me 
I have a spare room!

I have a silly question...when I bf i always offer one boob then the next only at the next feed, so my son was down to 2 feeds a day so easy enough R in the morning and L at noon, bu the last 2 days he has skipped his noon feed so this morning i thought well ill give him the L boob cos its starting to feel slightly uncomfy atm and he went beserk and kept pointing to the other one..is this normal? I ended up giving him the R cos he just was so mad.
Also does this mean if he end up only wanting one feed a day on the R boob that the left will eventually have no milk?

celine oo0o thats a hard one lol, i think if hes so used to it that he gave you that kind of reaction then you might just end up one boob feeding for a while if he really does drop the midday feed and yes the left will dry up if you arent using it
