    Well being the modern man wot I am, she does the feed, I then do the burp and the nappy-change, and the settle her back down in her moses basket. So there

    Anyway, our first daughter wouldn't breastfeed so my wife had to express for 4 months and I ended up doing all the night-time bottle feeds, so it's time I got a break (!)

    This is so much easier for both of us though, no cleaning the bottles, no sterilising, no expressing, no warming the bottles, not as much burping, etc.

    I dunno how long it will last though.

    Well done teh Barbs! We used to do the same. Breastfeeding is the easiest thing in the world, it's just so bloody convenient.

    My misses couldn't breastfeed and we used one of them fancy electric breast pumps, but when I sterolized the pump I forgot to put some water in the tub with the pump

    Blimey! No wonder FST is so quiet - all these people with lives.

    Well done Barbie (and Mrs Barbie and her small part in things too - of course)
