The breast I can do apparently. 29 weeks.

So the UCLH replied to my letter asking about breast feeding after the pregnancy. I thought perhaps that once the pregnancy was over and the baby was born my hormones would go back to nothing and I may not be able to breast feed and the baby blues would be a tidal wave of despair.

Apparently according to the consultant I liase with, she advised that perhaps after 6 weeks once breast feeding has been established that I could have a hormone patch for HRT and that I could arrange an appointment for this if I wanted, which was very re assuring. Apparently cancer survivors/menopausal women who have had egg donation IVF still can breast feed. Although she did say that it is not particularly easy the first time round for anyone! At least I could give it a shot though.

Totally irrelevant but baby has been quite quiet today, thank goodness for my doppler, could reccomend to anyone who may feel that they might worry through a pregnancy to get one off ebay!

May drink some coffee later and some ice cream apparently that can get baby shifting about.
