Hi Gidget,
The B/F is a complete disaster. Even with a midwife coming to see me each day trying to sort it , latch on just isn't happening. Joel is a lazy little sod that doesn't want to work too hard. I also have flat nipples which has made it harder.
I've been expressing and bottle feeding, but we are still trying.
The whole motherhood thing has been a bit of a shock to the system I'm sure you'd agree.
Look forward to catching up soon. I might even be game enough to venture to lunch on Friday with the little one!
Cheers,
Matty

Hi Ladies,
Was great to catch up on Tuesday and Matty you looked great. I don't think I'm going to look so good I'm kinda getting used to 10 hours sleep a night!
I won't be able to make it for lunch on Friday, Central feels as though it is getting further and further away for me! Also I don't want any spicy food to be speeding things along, I want to wait until the 13th....so we could be the same days Bets!!!
Enjoy lunch and we are still waiting for the first October baby...CK you are in the running too now.

OK, so for lunch tomorrow let's do Mexican... 12:45 @ I Caramba, 26-30 Elgin Street in Soho. Their seats aren't that comfortable, but we can change venues for dessert (perhaps Portobello's on Staunton).
So far I have CK, Bets and Alex, anyone else?
Alex, I am having a curry at home tonight and don't think I can handle it for two meals in a row. Looking forward to seeing you again. I'd love to try your secret restaurant too!
MamaS - I'll be at the end of 41 weeks on the 13th. EDD was 2 October.
Looking forward to tomorrow ladies!

I have a mid wife appointment today at 1 so can't pop down, but if there is anyone around NEXT week still, would love to catch up.
Am eagerly awaiting all of your texts girls, to see who goes next!!
Matty, I am so sorry about the BF, how gutting for you. I tell you what, I was expecting to be laid up with the pain from my C sec, I didn't even notice that with the engorgement pain, my breasts started sprouting out from under my arm pits, which was a bit alarming!!
Max and I seem to be getting on top of things now, but I have had some bloody nipples for my efforts.
Kudos to you for persevering.

Hey ladies,
I'm so sorry but I wont be able to come for lunch today as I havent slept for all night: Sasha has been sick, I still cant figure what's happening to him but I can tell you that one shower isn't enought to get the vomit smell out of my hair, bouhouuuuu... After that I had some quite painful and longs contractions so the doctor asked me to keep it calm for few days (I'm only 23 weeks)
mamaS, Bets, the indian I wanted to show you is
INDIA TODAY 26-30 Elgin Street (1rst floor)
Tel: 28.01.59.59
I've been going there since I arrived in HK the staff is lovely and you can eat for quite cheap some good Indian (not as good than at my neighbourghs from Delhi but since, I like it a lot !)
Matty, I'm so sorry that your BF isnt going on well but you seem very brave, I think I wouldnt be as brave as you are... Is Joel enjoying the formula? Maybe you could stick to it if you are tired, I remember the "ugly" symptomns when I was BF: bleading nipples, very sensitive, painful breast, I enjoyed BF Sasha but I'm not sure I'll do it again, havent made up my mind yet...
In either case, good luck & I hope to join you very very soon for lunch or teat or a walk in the park with babs.

Hi Alex, Thanks for the tip, i'll go there later. My fave is the Nepalese restaurant, not so spicy.
Hey Bets, yes, eat curry, do some dancing, and walk a lot ;-) It might help for baby to come out sooner.
So, nobody has been successful in exclusive BF yet? Maybe xox?
Keep in touch, ladies. I have braxton hicks or contraction now, but not so regular yet. And i can't sleep at night now bec. of hiccup or baby kicking. Anyone has this too?
