this forum has been a little quiet as of late so I thought I would post a new thread to see where everyone was at. We are only a few months off starting TTC so very excited. We have been naughty and bought a few baby things but didn't go silly, just a few jumpsuits and things for our 'babybox'. I think it starts making you feel more positive that things are starting to happen. I started taking blackmores conceive well vitamins yesterday and today it made me nauseous and I vomitted (sorry to make you sick). I dont know what that was but tomorrow I will see if it happens again. I have been trying to get back into uni work, I have been really slack so today is a big assignment day! We also need to redo our donor agreement, Denise our lawyer told us it was too formal so we had to start over again. We are going to write a statement from myself, Selena and our donor, the reasons why we are going into it and our intentions. Hopefully that will be better. We really have no idea about the law, just want something basic that will cover us or at least help out a fair bit!
A big congrats to Sally2 for their news of expecting a boy, thats great news!You will be starting to get things organised now!
Thanks girls, we are rapt!
It was a bit of a shock though, as I was convinced we were having a girl, so when the Ultrasound man saw the little doodle, I was like 'huh? It isn't a girl?' But I had said when we were TTC that I would love a little boy first, cause boys are cuddly and love their Mum's. So, happy with the news and the family is very excited, particularly my Mum!
Went and bought boy outfits yesterday to add to our bits and pieces. Slowly getting organised, but still need the pram & car seat, will get onto that soon....
Hope you get your agreements sorted out so you can focus on ttc!
Hope everyone else is travelling well, would love to hear from Leasha & Shel in particular on how Jazz is going and how cute she is
Hey guys!
Leanne and Selena I'm so excited for you guys!
And Sallys I'm so excited that you're having a boy! Cute
I'm really really happy because I have just talked to the clinic I am getting my donor through and my waiting time has been reduced to just under 5 months (approx), whereas yesterday I still thought it was almost 9 months away! I'm sooooooo excited!

Jazz is doing perfect and is (of course ) absolutely gorgeous! hehe
We are doing really well, the days are flying and today is the longest I've been able to browse BB (granted I fed her an hour ago and typed one handed - and left handed too! - which was tricky!). Shel managed to wrangle more holidays from work, until the 16th so we are spending lots of time together as a family. Jazz is going great, the past few nights she has only woken twice each night,, and only to feed and then fall asleep again. I am still not getting very deep sleep but I can notice the difference compared to when she wanted to be bright eyes in the ugly hours of the night.
Will get around to more photos soon, our camera saves them really large so they need resizing before I can post them and I just don't have to motivation right now! But of course you can see how cute she is by my ticker photo! She is starting to 'wake up' and look around more these days, which is just so adorable. When we sit her next to our big glass doors she looks out the window and watches the branches on the tree sway in the wind, she just loves it. I am breastfeeding, but also expressing, and Shel usually does one feed a day which gives me a bit of a break though it doesn't matter how much expressed milk she has from a botle she still seeks out the boob for a comfort suck and most times to fall asleep. Probably a bad habit to let her get into but shes barely 4 weeks old so I let her go, easier than having an unsettled baby.
