i really do enjoy reading your posts especially with a hot latte with my irish cream flavour shot in it and while little sheps resting by my feet. Thats a great post by the way. i cant wait to read the next one. Lets hope you will be going into the weird wonderful world of strange pregnancy cravings. Any one fancy a pickled gerkins and mars bar sandwich. A friend of mine spend whole whole pregnancy eating those sambos. Or do you fancy my favourite its marmite and cheese sandwiches hmm they are so nice to have. Although i am not expecting it makes for good student comfort eating.

An udderly hilarious post, K8. I’ve got to get Laurie to read this one, she’d appreciate it being the veteran mother of 5 kids that she is.

And if you run out of wool fat I can send you over a genuine, Vermont made, can of Bag Balm (since 1899) to sooth whatever ails ya’.

No, I’m not kidding. People use it too.

Can’t wait for installment #2.

Wool fat = lanolin = Lansinoh, beloved product of midwives.

My bf counsellor friend says she’s moved on to Green Baby Nipple Balm. BUT I have a giant tube of Lansinoh I’ll never use (well, maybe on my feet if I was motivated enough) if you want it!

Baino; I’ve never heard of wool fat! There was an excellent ointment named Chamomilla on the market which is sadly gone for some reason now. Perky and in form – heehee – and pointing in random directions!

Holemaster; Yeah i know… there’s nothing quite like nature to put you off your cornflakes.

Granny; I dunno, they’d probably be classed as lethal weapons- I have a black eye after yesterday’s shower.
