It very much depends on times as well I've found. She can easily demolish a 6oz bottle but I can't get that off if I express. Apparently after you've bf for a while your boobs make milk as they suck...so she must be getting what she needs cos she doesn't wake/want more!
This is what I do with formula but keep them in the fridge inbetween making and feeding. I tried to follow the health visitors guidelines but it was impossible to make a bottle from scratch in middle of the night.
When I was researching everyone was saying to just put water in bottles let it cool and add formula when needed, but i thought you needed heat in the water to kill off any bacteria

I felt mine low down but I had an anterior placenta so couldn't feel them at the front. Some days I swear Cole was kicking me right in the cervix! And I think a lot of the girls on here said the same xx

Does anyone else's little one wait til nappy off to poo and wee more? Oliver has done it 4 times today and 3 times he has needed change of clothing, I put a cloth over him to try prevent weeing on himself but the problem is he wriggles so much and also hates being changed so is screaming too! Not a good combination when he also decides to poo!! Not Sure if I'm doing something wrong. I tried opening his nappy but waiting and not taking it off just now, but then I took old nappy off and out new on and between that millisecond he started to poo. It was like he was waiting for me. Little rascal!

Cole does, he wee's on me at least once a day. I've started taking his nappy off, laying him on a towel on his changing mat and letting him have naked bum time. He loves it. He usually wee's about three times and nearly always does a poo so I just stick a couple of baby wipes under him to catch it and let him kick his legs for 15 minutes.
When I'm just changing him I've noticed his willy sort of swells a little bit if he needs a wee so I leave the old nappy under him and gently prod his bits which usually makes him wee then I can change him. Sounds horrible but it works. And I change him after a bottle and put his changing mat in front of the tv so he's really chilled out x

Thomas is the same, it's like he waits till his nappy is off to poo and pee! We put our changing bag mat down on our changing table as it's wipe clean and our changing table one has a material cover.
His willy swells up the way as well when he's going to pee so I can normally point it down into the nappy, I'm not so good with the poos though, normally goes on to the back of his vest!

Finally Pregnant!!
Yea that's what I thought. Why say its ok to full the bottle n add formula later when it's the heat kills the bacteria.
Eabha has room temp bottle so I leav them on the counter as iv been advised from another mammy. N that's how we done it with our babies ( nieces n nephews)
Yea has that from a bit later but then I was late feeling movements. Just wait til ya'v a foot in yer ribs n hand hitting yer cervix ha ha

Girls I'm a little confused .. Wondering if anyone can give me any advice ..??
when I went into work today I was told by my employer that because I have written in my resignation letter that I intend to leave my
Position as family nanny after the 52 weeks maternity leave that I will accrue holiday pay equating to around the £1100 mark .
Obviously this would have been great news however my employers have said that they are not happy to pay me holiday entitlement as I only work term time and they don't see it to be fair seeming as they already have to pay my SMP plus the wages of the new nanny . So in light of this I have been asked to write a new resignation letter dating my resignation from next week so that under the terms of the company who arrange my payslips I would not be entitled to holiday pay.
I wasn't expecting to be paid any extra holiday pay and I can understand why they wouldn't want to pay it so I'm not really bothered whether I get the money or not however if I agree to renegotiate my resignation letter then I would not be giving the required notice period in order for me to claim SMP ., this concerns me because although they have promised they will still continue to pay my maternity pay I feel like redoing my letter would leave me unprotected because essentially then could then turn around after I've left and refuse to pay my maternity pay because I did not give the right notice ) even though my original letter of resignation was handed in over a month ago)
Sorry marathon post .. You deserve a medal if you got to the end of that!!
Anyway .. Does anyone have any experience of this or advice ?
Or do you think I should just go ahead and write the letter ...?

Hello. I would not write a new letter of resignation. If you did this you would not be legally covered for your maternity pay. What they think you should be paid, ie holiday pay, and what you are entitled to are two different matters. I would advise you to leave your original letter stand. Hope this helps.
