I've been breastfeeding my daughter for almost 5 months and have had to stop this week as I have an eye infection and have to take medicine for it that could affect her. I'd been planning on stopping anyway but here is the weird part. I was a bit 'full' this morning so decided to use the breast pump to express some off and get a little relief and the milk had a green tint to it!

I'm sure I'm going to get some very strange answers but I haven't changed my diet, other than eating a little more fruit than normal yesterday. I threw it out rather than save it as I have been after expressing as I couldn't find anything online that would explain it. I can only assume it is either the antihistamines or the extra fruit I ate, but anyone else's opinions (sensible ones please!) would be most appreciated!

Is there any way to set up an alert or pop up message when the battery on my laptop is full? I run Vista, its a new Toshiba, and I just can't find it in any of the options!

Many thanks

As I have a little one (she'll be nearly four by then) I really want to know if I need to be packing cardigans and trousers for the evenings for her! Can anyone shed a little light on the evening temperature for me please?

you feel like being really helpful on Y!A, want to impart your wisdom to others and feel great for helping, then have other days when you just want to answer sarcastically and can't be bothered?

I'm having one of the latter days, which is unlike me so i'm going to try not to answer anything unless its nice! Wish me luck!

When driving home on friday evening I saw the first Christmas decorations of the season up in a house window, lights and all!

Part of the estate i live on is rented accomodation to the USAAF (I live in the UK just to clarify!) and I know a lot of them put up the decs for Thanksgiving (next week i think it is) but I think that the 9th November is a bit early!

Your thoughts on the matter? Anyone else seen any Crimbo decs up yet? Other than in the high street of course!

If you have kids of course! My 3 year old daughter is watching Backyardigans and galloping round the room on her hobby horse! It's 7.03am.

Just been to the gym and there's a new machine. I only used it for an hour and i started to feel sick! It's good though! It does everything! Kit Kats, Mars bars, Snickers, Hula Hoops, Quavers, Ribena...

Arr!!!!!

Mine has to be A.I. Artificial Intelligence.

I was happy with the kid sitting forever staring at the Blue Fairy but then the greys turned up? please!

Everybody's got one, even if its just the name of the garage. What stickers do you have in your back windscreen?

I have one that says 'a dragon is for life, not just for hogswatch night' (discworld)

and another that says 'powered by witchcraft'

None of them have noses!

So was Voldenmort really a guy with 'a passion for fashion' or are the Bratz incredibly evil?

Personally i think as stylish as Voldemort's black suit was, the Bratz are evil!

Me and my friend were just discussing this as we both have small kids now. we remember the old favourites like;

If you pull a face and the wind changes you'll stay that way

Don't pick your nose, your brain will fall out

Eat your crusts you'll get curly hair

and some newer ones

Don't play with your belly button, your bum will fall off (i love that one!)

If the ice cream man is playing music it means he's sold out.

So what lies were you told or have you told? the more evil the better!

Who was the last person you spoke to on the phone and who would you really like to phone you (absolutely anyone in the world!)

I'll put my answers when i pick a best, i don't remember who i spoke to on the phone last at the moment!

Everyone has a song they are humming at the moment, mine is the 30 Seconds to Mars track The Kill (Bury Me).

So what has you humming?

My sister has a tropical fish tank and has suddenly noticed hundreds of white eggs in the tank. she has angel fish, neon tetras, black neons, cherry neons, mollies, green barbs and tiger barbs in the tank and recently spotted two snails.

does anyone know are these likely to be snail eggs or fish eggs of some sort?

So Mars have decided that they're sorry they upset millions of vegetarians and are going to revert to making their products suitable for us veggies again! But they haven't yet said if the bars with animal products will be withdrawn or if there is a certain best before date we should be looking at (ie after a certain date they will be veggie again!)

Anyway, don't you think its great that they listened to the consumer for a change? Even if we do still need a little more information, let's hear it for a victory for the little man! yay!

My daughter is almost three and we're getting kittens in a couple of weeks time. We're thinking up names and so far she likes the following;

Cosmo and Wanda (Fairly Odd Parents)

or

JoJo and Goliath (JoJo's Circus)

yes she probably watches too much TV but we want it to be names she will relate to/likes already.

Please vote for one of the two or give me some more suggestions a nearly 3 year old might like!

Thanks!

Everyone has something they do for a BBQ that is different to the regular sausages, burgers and whatever other meat you have in coated in bbq sauce and thrown on the grill!

So what do you do that's your BBQ signature dish?

We always make either vegetable kebabs; peppers, cherry toms, mushrooms, red onions, pineapple, smothered in BBQ sauce or BBQ vegetable rice salad, all the above, cooked in the oven and mixed with garlic and corriander rice, cooked and cooled frozen peas, sweetcorn and chopped spring onions!

I've had some ridiculous violations (as have we all i think!) but i don't know whether to bother querying them or not.

Latest example: Have you ever tried caviar?

My answer was that it had never appealed to me so no.

I'm not particularly annoyed about it, just curious as to whether any one has ever got their violation notice overturned and their points back!

I'm thinking of taking a portable dvd player on holiday to entertain my daughter and was wondering if anyone knows whether they play DVD-R's as standard? Most say CD-R on the description but not DVD-R. One of her favourites to keep her entertained is a home movie and of course having ripped it ourselves its on a DVD-R!

Anyone have any recomendations too?
