No boob leakage yet... but I've noticed my boobs smells sort of sweet, like whole milk? Is that even possible? LOL

Getting loads of baby hiccups... usually 2 x a day! I love it. Never thought about getting out the Doppler... will do that next time!
 
i used the medal swing (UK product may have to google)

it was amazing very gentle but really got the milk out, i got as much out with the swing as i did the with ameda lactaline (hosp grade double pump) but in half the time and its a single
 
TTC - I noticed the smell too!

Ok ladies here are some photos to bore you with. ;)

Here's the quilt I just finished:

And a few of her room:

Her changer area and my beloved cloth nappy stash:

Her room from the door - to te left is our single bed which I've not photographed as its just sort of got odd bits and bobs on there right now that I need to sort out.

Her wardrobe and shelves. Please excuse the washing on the radiator. I've started pre-washing a few bamboo bits as I had room in my light wash and they take a few washes to get up to absorbency.

SOOOOOO jealous of your nappy stash!! Love the Ikea holder too. I've been trying to figure out how to get one for DS's room in natural color. I also found a new nappy FB page and now I'm hooked on her NB size with cotton velour on the inside. This is NOT good for my wallet, LOL!!

I love the colors! So cute! And the personalization everywhere is so cute. Love it!
 
I also love the nappy holder, your stash is AMAZING. I only have 12 so far! Going to wait until my baby shower to purchase anymore. I was thinking of getting a holder like you have for them, right now I have them in a drawer but I can see that getting pretty full quickly... they are addicting for some weird reason lol!
 
Cupcake - looks beautiful!!!

Ttc - I also found out a couple weeks ago that my insurance covers a breast pump 100%. My midwife just has to write a prescription for it and she can specify which one i want on the s ript. I've heard great things about the medela pump in style with the backpack & that's what I plan on asking for.
 
Cupcake the photos are great! I need to get on with mine but just still not had the time! Going to my parents for a few days now so hoping to do some there. Be careful putting the bamboo too close to the radiator - you don't need to dry between washes either (in case you were).
And yes baby hiccups - mine gets them up to 10 times a day, my DD was the same and she was a very hiccupy baby when she came out too.

Not sure on that pump but medala is a very good make, medala swing is meant to be the best single pump one, I found it brilliant!
 
hey ladies -

just a quick question - how have you all been sleeping? i've been getting up a few times every night to pee, but that's not the problem. i cannot get comfortable, no matter which way i move my pregnancy pillow or what side i lay on. i always wake up grumpy and sore.

a good friend bought me a prenatal massage, so i got that yesterday, and it was wonderful. i slept a little better last night, but sleeping is still not fun. i find that i actually am sleeping better curled up on the sofa!
 
Thanks Ladies :) We're really pleased with it.

My nappy stash is pretty extreme - see the purple box on the bottom shelf? That is stacked full of BTP pockets/AIOs which are going to be too big for a while. Lol.

@MightyMom - They do our tower in a natural. It's the Benno from IKEA. I think you're in the US - and they do have it on that IKEA site (Link) although the birch costs double what the white does.

@TTC - they are VERY addicting!

@Hann - thanks for the radiator tip! I did not know that!! I just hope I've not done too much damage!

@jtink - Yes! I am the same. I actually don't really look forward to going to bed these days even though I'm falling asleep by 9pm. I thankfully only have to pee once per night, but trying to get comfortable in bed is so difficult, and I dread having to get in and out when it is pee time.
 
Cupcake you won't have damaged them but if you did it after every wash you would do. Ideally let bamboo dry naturally (outside is best) but if not then on an airer near the radiator but not on it
 
oh pretty fluff, i've yet to wash bumps first nappies (teenyfits and bambino mios) however Inver is now back in fluff and we have a nice littler stash. If only i could get them to stop leaking her body shape is blaming weird she still has skinny legs
 
sad day today, ladies. normally i buy pretty, frilly, girly panties - i am not a huge girly person at all, but love nice underwear.

with all this gross discharge, and the fact that my ass is huge now, i don't want to damage my pretty, lacy expensive undies. so i caved today and finally, at almost 31 weeks, bought some plain old cheap cotton grandma panties. i almost cried at the cash register at target. it says they're "hipster" undies, but we all know better - they're grandma panties. **SOB** :sad2:
 
haha too funny I wear those after my c section i'm still in thongs and pantyliners. Back from the dr onto every 2 week app now plus I am being referred to a specialist for a diet plan for the GD I am up 14 lbs so she said that's great and I should probably stay around this weight its all baby so thats good.
 
the only consolation i have is that once the baby is born, i'll get to throw these huge, gross granny panties in the trash! well, once i get skinny again :)
 
Grrrr, been awake since 1.45am and its now nearly 6am. This is likely some sick sort of advanced sleep deprivation training before LO arrives. Sob x
 
I know how you feel, Annabelle was up much of the night and asleep with me (at my parents) and she's refusing to eat this morning. Great....
