Suz I am so sorry! I would be so worried too!! I like the suggestions to be constantly bugging her and checking in. She might get tired of the calls but it will totally make her feel less alone. It's hard cuz u have a baby to take care of 24-7 and now u have yr sister to care for. That's alot and I hope the rest of yr fam has a lot of time to help. Are u feeling really helpless or what? How are u feeling? How old is she?

My sister is fine now... Bonkers, but we all are! 
That's good that she's fine now Jess
Casey yeh my dad and wife are on it, I worry that my mum hasn't grasped the seriousness, she seems to think that she has a parental sense that she'll be ok so she's not too worried, but she didn't know about the letter or stuff in the car, or that she almost did it. Even now she knows she still doesn't think my sis will do it, but I wish she'd take it more seriously
my mum is pretty good with this stuff so perhaps she was just trying to make me feel better...
My older sis is in London and stressing about her flat and has her own pretty serious depression issues, although since she moved out of home seems much better so that's good.
I do feel quite a lot of responsibility to help both sisters, and it's hard because of Sammuel and just being so tired all the time. But id rather be tired and stressed and have them better. I can cope.
It does worry me that depression seems to run in the family (dad also on antidepressants) and I hope that it doesn't affect my children

aw Suz, that is really rough.. thats a touchy subject for me.. I lost one of my best friends that way about 7 years ago and my brother tried it before we knew about his mental issues. I'm so glad you guys found out and its known and she's being watched over. Its a really hard thing to deal with. Anything you can say or do that can give her a reason to stop when she feels that way is worth doing (guilt trips etc!). I'm so sorry you're dealing with that and I'm here if you want to talk about it!
Morning girls :wave:
Lisa I'm sorry about your friend, and your brother trying it it sucks, 2 of my step-sisters friends did it (who I sort of knew) and my friends mum a few years ago.. So sad for everyone...
Anyway, she seems good today and has burnt the book apparently so I am pleased about that!
Cat how are you doing today? Hope something is happening! The first few days over I was ok but as it got nearer a week I got pissed off!

Cat- hope she comes soon for you! I was so depressed once I was 2 weeks over! X
Suz- glad your sister seems to be doing ok
Hi everyone else

Hey suz glad she burned that book! Yay!
Lisa sorry to hear about the rough times your brother and friend had.
Lou you aren't worried are you? Those percentiles arent that meaningful - it isn't like a school grade where you want 100 percent! he doesnt have to be Top of the class to be healthy. IMO.

No not overly concerned but he has dropped more than 2 and a half percentiles in a month now so I still have to take him fortnightly for now so they can keep an eye on it x
He is a crap feeder though- he went from being a greedy newborn to not being great at feeding anymore. He still asks for it at least every two hours but only snack-feeds, sometimes only for a couple of minutes at a time if that His latch is terrible too- I make him latch properly but he constantly pulls off and just feeds on the nipple! HV says it's probably because I've got long nipples so when I let-down they hit the back of his throat so hes changed his latch!

He's got conjunctivitis too
Oh no!! Poor Ben, and you!
Sammuel doesn't latch great anymore either...
He ate some banana!!! I know for sure he swallowed cos it came out the same in his poo
I'm wondering whether to give him some breastmilk in a cup thingy (sippy cup?!) cos he loves watching us drink and seems desperate to do it too!

Try it Suz! I've got Ben practicing with a cup every day with just an ounce of breastmilk in. Sometimes he gets none sometimes he manages half an ounce or so x
