I love a bit of scandal - everyone wants to pretend they're all prissy perfect now though *boring* I read the Janice Dickinson one years ago, she's absolutely bonkers, it was great. Keith Richards book was surprisingly dull to say he's led the life he has.
). Does anyone have any suggestions how I go about this? Or is it always just pot luck?

***Potential trigger***
I BF my daughter for two weeks but she was losing weight so I was told to put her on formula, she was also emergency section so for the longest time I felt like a failure - couldn't give birth "normally" or feed my baby... My mum spun this line to me and in my stupid naivety, I believed her and ended up very mentally ill. With my son, he was also section and it was excruciating to bf him, I did a whole 30 hours suffering, struggling and feeling like a failure and then told the staff I was putting him on a bottle - luckily I was free of my mum and had better support that time around so I coped better. I'm firm in my belief that what's best for mum is what's best for baby but unfortunately there's still the big belief that breast is best - surely as long as the baby is thriving that's all that matters?!
Hope it's cooling down for you all - it's bloody boiling again here *insert Martin from Friday Night Dinner gif here*
Exactly, I am fed up to my teeth with all this judgmental "breast is best"crap and pressure put on new mothers. If my midwife had not been so nice I would have bottle fed both and I would not have cared at all as long as the babies thrived.
Ooh, living dangerously! I think they only do them for people who have given themselves a username that could potentially identify them in real life now.Fraus. I'd like to request a username change, but not sure how best to word it to actually get the username that I'd like (I understand not to @ admin
I saw this after my maverick weird little brain threw a cinnamon cake concoction together. My eldest said it took a while to chew and could probably do with some icing. My husband said it tasted like shite.@NoseyParkour - not my baking area of expertise. I like butter, but these look nice:
Water Cake: A Dairy-free, Egg-free, Magic Cake
No milk, no butter, no eggs needed, only simple cupboard ingredients. This water cake is absolutely magic and perfect for breakfast or tea time!www.thepetitecook.com
I think you said you had all those things, and it looks nice. Kinda want you to make it to see if it works as well as claimed.
I really liked Janice’s autobiography too. Can’t look at Liam Neeson in the same way now.
I actually don’t know, on our old ward it wasn’t a problem as we had a cupboard next to the desk and kept them in there, could easily take a swig. We don’t have that now we’ve moved into the tower block and I can’t always dash off to the staff room for a quick drink (also where our water fountain is located). Tis bizarre though as in A&E where I find myself sometimes, they have all their bottles out in full view no issues, so it can’t be a trust wide
I hope you get it sorted soon; it’s such a pain in the arse sorting care.I hope you all know that it’s International Left Handers day today.
Spread the love.
My mum is still in hospital. I’m going around in circles attempting to get care organised for her
Lovely cabal that you areIt was very honest but written with a lot of humour so easy to digest. Lots of name dropping of other celebs though but done in a way that wasn’t boring.

Ive argued it before but can’t be arsed these days in all honesty. I took to hiding my bottle in my drug trolley, ridiculous I need to hide it but it is at least easily available there.

Does the ward she’s on have a care/discharge coordinator? They usually have a bit more sway getting things organised in a timely fashion. Absolutely worth their weight in gold if it’s something your hospital provides.
Ive been enjoying reading all your stories re: BF. I will be unable to breastfeed due to my medication, I’m already beating myself up about it and preparing to tell any midwife who tries to shame me to duck off. So it’s refreshing to see everyone here so kind about it, and non judgemental
I could’ve written this myself. Pretty identical experience here. A few of my friends had babies at the same time and made bf look so easy and it’s something that even now (my son is 5) I feel guilty for.
Pitta bread pizzas are one of my comfort foods. Yours are very fancy though, I am impressed. The rules for mine, to make the perfect comfort version are as follows:I buy sardines for the dog.

Literally just in the midst of making satay chicken. Looked at a lot of different recipes and then cobbled my own version together. Marinated chicken strips in ginger, garlic, lemon juice, fish sauce, soy sauce and some spices, they've been skewered and now under the grill. Sauce was made from crunchy peanut butter, soy sauce, tamarind water, coconut milk, brown sugar and a little lemon juice. Warmed through on the hob until all mixed. Oh and a spoon of curry powder.
Feeding them to their half Maine coon ?
