I am still breastfeeding my 9 month old - and had weaned him to just have a morning and evening feed - but in the last week he has been asking for more milk during the day and eating less solids because he has been v coldy. I have been letting him feed a bit more during the day because he was so off his solid foods. Then yesterday i started feeling all fluey and ropey - went to bed shivering and think i was running a temperature during the night. This happened to me another time about 2 months ago - again just after my son had needed extra milk for a few days cause he was teething. Is this something thats happened to anyone else? Does producing extra milk make you feel rubbish? Both times the symptoms were v similar - bout 24 hours of feeling achey and slightly feverish and really tired!

Are your boobs hot at all? Not like that, I'm sure you're gorgeous ;) I mean hot to touh or engorged or sore? Could be the onset of mastisis- I'd call your GP asap- you don't want to mess about when it comes to that! Or it could be a cold from the baby- have you heard of passage?- apparently when adults catch vitals etc from children, it's always a lot worse as the virus mutates to be a bit more aggressive. Or so my Mum says.

Milk fever ... What I think of as this fluey feeling fro

Rapid production, like in the first few weeks


I have normally got through by drInling plenty, hot shower, extra feeding or pumping


Nurofen though not sure it's recommended now when bf


If you do notice a hard lump visit the gp or if it doesn't go away, the fever xx

      Has anyone had any joy contacting Helen Hayes out MP?

      By ianr · Posted

      The Commons Public Accounts Committee questioned both the CEO and MD of Capita yesterday, at their last meeting before the recess:  https://committees.parliament.uk/event/25889/formal-meeting-oral-evidence-session/.  In October they'd already expressed concern that Capita might not  be able to efficiently retake over responsibility for the administration within the timescale. Given the joint statement recently issued by Capita and the Cabinet Office I'm not sure that contacting an MP is going to add much, other than venting what I think most of us can probably appreciate of what those affected are likely  to be thinking and feeling; unless perhaps, and I hope it's not needed, to report on deficiencies in the immediate rescue actions.

      She's responded, but I'm sure I read something in the Guardian consumer advice column. Might be some pointers if you're stuck

      The going home for the weekend song thread...come on you groovey foookers

      Two for Ratcliffe, the obvious one:   And one simply because it has the word  "You are nothing but blind fascists" in it.  Oh and a good song too.   Haven't listened to this for years.  Bloody good!

      Calling all you London Reds (Manchester United)

      By malumbu · Posted

      It's time to ditch your team, otherwise you could be seen to supporting your owners dog whistle comments (aka racist). Fortunately you can support a local team, I understand that Palace have pretty right on fans, and you have Dulwich Hamlet and Peckham Town too. If you genuinely are from the North West then Everton fans are well rated for their politics (ignore the paving over paradise/loss of UNESCO world heritage status), and of course FC United of Manchester. Salford Town not a bad bet either. For those who are glory hunters dare I say over the river in the North London library aka Emirates (shame they don't rhyme) you have both the likelihood of a title this season and a very multicultural fan base. If you want to be really cool the Welsh speaking team Club Cymric, Forest Green Rovers, or AS Livorno in Italy, an anti-fascist team
