Bbox essential nappy Wallet.

So over a month ago we were planning our trip overseas for my brothers wedding.

Now with four children, 2 under 2, you have a fair amount of organising. 

The 1 thing I decided I "needed" was an essential nappy wallet.

(This is how I sold it to my husband) just think about the plane trip over they would be the perfect, a great way to store nappies, wipes and plastic bags. It 

comes with a portable change mat, so really hygienic. 

I was excited I had my sale pitch on, he looked at me and then I realised as it was about nappies and nappy changes he wasn't as enthused as I was :-) he was more than happy for me to get it, just not as excited as I was.

I have to say I love it. It did all that I wanted it too. It fit 2 huggies toddlers nappies, heaps of wipes and they didn't dry out. As well as a couple of plastic nappy bags, the change mat was so practical in the plane. 

It was nice to just grab the wallet and head into the cramped toilet without having to squish the nappy bag too

My thoughts on breastfeeding

Now I want to start this post saying I am not a medical expert I am just a mum that has been very lucky that I have been able to breastfeed all my four children. I am still feeding my fourth child :-)

There have been times when I have struggled through low supply there have been times when I have expressed, times when I have had to mix feed, and I have been lucky to have had support from my family to breastfeed.

I understand their are some people who medically can't breastfeed and I have family and friends in that boat, there is no shame, no condemnation. I understand their are people that do not want to breastfeed. Once again there is no shame, no condemnation from me. I am writing this purely for the mums that want to read about my experience breast feeding.

I was very lucky that before I had children myself I grew up with people around me that BF there children, they were not embarrassed to talk around me about any struggles they had, I remember seeing photos of my mum feeding, but also she wasn't embarrassed to talk about having to change my twin sister and I onto Goats milk at six months old.

I remember people telling me that whilst it's a natural thing it isn't always a natural thing. 

When my first was born (almost nine years ago) I never doubted that I wanted to BF. I went to all the classes and was extremely happy when my daughter fed straight after birth. What I didn't expect was the discomfort (pain) that you can experience in the first few days. People talk about a bad latch, engorgement and until it hits you, you really do have no idea.
