A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

What wonderful, exciting news.  Our first baby on the forum-I think.

All the very best to you Caroline, your DH,  and baby Hannah.  :-* :-*

Thanks so much, everyone.  It was lovely to log on and read your good wishes. 

Sorry we've been out of touch!  We had a difficult initial time after coming home - I had an allergic reaction to the c-section wound dressing which went septic, and also got mastitis.  So although nursing got off to a flying start, poor Hannah began to become dehydrated when I got ill and ended up having to be on the bottle.  Never mind, the important thing is that she's thriving, and we're having a go to see if we can go back to nursing.

A week of antibiotics later I feel human again, and am thoroughly enjoying Hannah.  She's beautiful and growing quickly - she's already grown out of one set of clothes!  Esther loves being a big sister, and rushes in from school to hold her and have a cuddle.  She also likes to help change the nappies and give feeds.  Mercifully she has never been disturbed by Hannah's (very loud) middle of the night bouts of colic.

I am thoroughly enjoying having a newborn around again, despite the disturbed sleep - as is DH.

Last week we lived on freezer food, but this week (now that it's less traumatic) DH has made a menu plan based on your recommendations to him, and is cooking.  Last night was a chicken dish with mashed potato and steamed veg (sorry, don't know the name of it, but I know it was one of your recipes).  Tonight he's making meat balls with tomato sauce and garlic rice.

Apart from a couple of photos taken in the hospital, we've only just started to take photos, and they aren't on my computer yet.  But as soon as they are I'll upload some for you (or try, anyway  :-)) )

Meanwhile, from our topsy turvy, but very happy household  :-* :-* :-*

I was wondering about you the other day Caroline, I must have missed your announcement  :-)) Welcome Hannah.
So sorry to hear you have had a rocky start - Mastitis is just awful, I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy!! Hoping the breast feeding can get back on track for you and that you are getting some rest when you can.
