Looking at my diary I think I have consumed a lot of pasta...

Tomorrow's lunch with be pasta too, tonight leftovers.

Maybe that's why I feeling this week won't be a lose and maybe a gain.

Hi jojojojo

Thanks!

Have you done SW before?

I have always heard of it but never tried.

I cant believe I am breastfeeding and losing the pounds I am

I ask myself why i dint start earlier but to be honest i started at the right time for me any earlier and i would have been able to stick to it.

SW is amazing and i don't feel deprived. Its all about making the right choices i guess...so a lifestyle change really. I think the biggest help from me is i dont mind not drinking...if i was not breastfeeding i would probably indulging in some red wine.

So your little one is 4months...everything going well? My little girl is my 1st andIi find her amazing....everyday she does something interesting...I am now looking forward to when she can sit up i think she will really enjoy that.

another great loss I cant wait to get stuck in in few weeks very inspiring xx

Hi, congratulations on your loss. I started slimming world last Jan, lost nearly a stone before I found out I was pregnant, I couldn't keep it up while pregnant had really bad fatigue and ate to keep the energy up (over ate!!) I was going to group then but haven't started group this time as hard with a LO. I am really enjoying slimming world as well and I would also be over indulging in alcohol (vodka for me) if I wasn't breastfeeding - I said to my partner the other day that I was glad in someways I can't drink because it stops me indulging. She is doing really well at the moment, is loving communicating and having a chat, she is very happy and general chilled. I think it is a beautiful time when they are this young and discover everything - my little boy never did the sitting up thing he went straight to crawling - lots of fun and non stop, Neve is trying to sit up at the moment but needs help - don't think it will be long till she can pull herself up x

On another topic....Malita is officially a thumb sucker...she never took to the dummy which I dint mind. We knew she would end up a sucker the minute I pushed her out and she was given to me she had already put her finger in her mouth despite being covered in vermix....sorry if its too much info.

It used to really frustrated her that she could suck her thumb in the first 2 months as she had no coordination.

Thumb sucking isn't good so guess when she turn 1 I have to have found a solution for the sake of her teeth....BUT for now its wonderful no more rocking her to sleep when
I see she is tired i just put her in bed she cries for like 5 mins then self soothes with her thumb.

For down the line anyone know any good tips to wean her of the thumb?

My little boy sucked his two fingers from about that age, he stopped himself between 1 and 2, I think it is good they can comfort themselves definitely came in useful and he coped without his fingers well when he stopped sucking them.

That really reassuring, she is bed and noticed she seem to just suck to soothe once asleep that's it.

I hope she stops herself too

Just make sure you have some baby friendly anti bac wipes with you. The first thing friends and strangers do is hold your LO's hand, the last thing you want is them to have sneezed, touched your bubba, then she puts her fingers (and all those germs) in her mouth!

Can you tell I'm a bit of a germaphobe haha.

Lily has taken to a dummy which is much more of a pain as she spits it out or drops it on the floor then screams for it. We then have to get her a new one and go back in the bedroom every ten minutes to put it back in her mouth!
