Hi Ladies,


Thought I would comment to let you all know whats happened after this thread. Lord knows, it may help some people too.


Today its my daughters 2nd birthday and I think our journey has ended. Last feed was last night at 8pm, bedtime. Woke up this morning, been a hectic day all day, but still time for 'boobie' if she had wanted. Never asked once (if your reading this Molly - it kept reminding me of your story!!). Tonight everything died down we wound down for a bit and she tried to ask me to sit down, but I told her she was a big girl now and she could just have milk (in her new Charlie and Lola cup ;-)), gave her the cup which she didn't want and just rocked to sleep singing twinkle twinkle little star. Glorious. No feeding for over 24hrs - milk dried up straight away!! This happened to anyone so quickly, doubt I had much anyway to be honest. For the last few weeks its been so horrible for me, constantly chewing at the nipple. ERGH! I turned round and said I was going to put my foot down and stop the other day to daddy, never, ever thought I would! Anyway I've hit my milestone and just wanted to share, its been really nice journey and would recommend to anyone! Got to go for dinner, no doubt back later. x

Ah Gina....Congratulations...if that is the right term...it sounds like the time was right for you and your little one, and exactly the same as me - I stopped on the eve of C's 2nd birthday too.


However - C will happily drink 3 or 4 big beakers of milk a day if I give her half a chance - "Hot Mook please Mummy" is a phrase I am all too familiar with!


Enjoy your new found freedom, I still feel deep joy everytime I'm poorly and realise I CAN dose myself up with whatever medication I feel I need - wooo hooo......(how sad is that)?


xx

      It's usually a combination of "nearly Halloween", "nearly Bonfire Night", "weekend" and "dickheads". You can adjust the sliding scale on each of those factors most nights for the next 3-4 weeks.

      Quite a few going off tonight. Diwali is over, or so I thought. Anyone know what the special occasion is?

      I got this  interesting email today. At least some (albeit apparently very few) shoplifters seem to have been arrested, though I wonder what the criteria were. Obviously that is only the ones arrested as a result of this particular initiative. Met Engage Logo Joint Partnership Success – Operation Roscoea, Southwark We’re pleased to share the success of Operation Roscoea, a joint partnership anti-social behaviour (ASB) initiative carried out in Southwark last week. This multi-agency operation saw eight partner representatives from six support organisations conducting outreach patrols alongside officers from our Trust, Confidence and Engagement Team. These joint efforts led to numerous new referrals into support services, ensuring vulnerable individuals are connected with the help they need. Neighbourhood policing teams also carried out joint patrols with Southwark Council wardens, who now hold newly designated enforcement powers. This enhanced collaboration has strengthened our collective ability to respond to ASB and community concerns. Operational highlights included: Six arrests made by officers from North Southwark Town Centre Team, St George’s, North Walworth, Faraday, Newington Ward, Chaucer, and the Proactive Crime Team: 2 for possession of a Section 5 firearm (CS spray) 1 for possession of Class A and B drugs 1 individual wanted for theft 2 for shoplifting ASB enforcement activity included: 2 Community Protection Notices issued to persistent offenders Numerous intelligence reports submitted to support ongoing investigations This operation is a testament to the dedication and teamwork of our local officers and partner agencies. Thank you to everyone involved for your continued commitment to making Southwark safer and more resilient. We look forward to building on this momentum in future deployments.
