    Hi all

    I had a weekend off BB, I have to do that every now and then, and wouldnt you know it I only have 2 small cleaning jobs to go apart from the constant ones of the washing, and DH will do the dishes tomorrow night again (whether he likes it or not ) so tomorrow I am cleaning the lounge and the bathroom, and anything that is not done by lunch time on Wednesday will get thrown into a closed room I am having friends over for a tupperware party.

    Sally has been around but I havent seen many posts from her, Maybe she is taking a little break. Ash has been away but should hopefully be back in here soon. It is just the time of year when life stuff takes over.

    LJ - Lots of moving!! I hate moving. We are ALMOST finished unpacking!! This will be the longest we will be in a house since we got married!! 2 years in our first place, 18 months in the second, and this one should be 3 years unless DH gets an unexpected posting, considering they have said we will be here for 3 years.

    Kirra - Put a spare Tshirt for yourself in the nappy bag I had to do that with a refluxer.

    I am about to unwind with a chick flick while DH sleeps and then head for bed!!

    Hey hey

    Thanks for thinking about me

    I have been popping in and out. Just haven't had much to say. Not much happening here at all. I'm almost 8 weeks, feeling off colour. Having trouble getting a u/s for 12 weeks. Have to try and get hold of my Dr's receptionist today becuase the hospital has been trying to get through since wed.

    How is everyone?

    Take Care

    Hey Hollye, the Hospital is fully booked and it needs to be done between 12-13 weeks. I'm actually not too worried about it, but it would be nice to see bubs.

    I am so tired and exhausted, having lots of troubles with Brendan lately, I think hes having nightmares

    Hi all, just thought i'd pop in quickly and say hi while charli is semi-sleeping. lol.

    Sally- Can't you go to like MIA or something and get it done????

    Hollye- hows lil Mia going? i seen the photo's in your gallery and she looks sooooo cute. Did you take them yourself cause they kinda look like a prof has taken them.

    Allioops- GL with the rest of the unpacking, i hate moving too much stuff to move, you never realise you have so much until you've gotta pack it, move it and then unpack it again

    Hi to everyone else, gtg now Charli has just woken up after i only just put her down
    Can't wait for sleep school class tomorrow. lol

    Kirra? MIA?? lol

    Oh firstly had my username changed... previously Brendansmum now ~Sally~

    Secondly... Had to take Brendan to hospital this morning.
    It happened so quick, I dont have pics, nor did I even lock my house or my car at the hospital.
    I dressed him at approx 8:45 he had nothing less than 5 mins later he was grizzly and came up to me with small red lumps on his arms, within a few mins his hands and feet were swollen. I literally watched him go red from the time to leave home and get to the hospital, less than 5 mins, his face was red, his arms and legs were red and welted. He looked like a lobster As soon as we got to the emergancy dept, we didnt have to wait they took him straight him , weighed him, listened to his heart and checked him over.

    Gave a dose of steroids and an antihistamine at approx 9:30am. We waited approx 30-45 mins and his rash was already looking better so they let us go home. At first sign of it re-appearing we are to go back.

    I think it was an alergic reaction, but to what I dont know. We did nothing different this morning. he drank his milk, he had nutrigrain. He sat on the couch watching tv.

    They wont test him unless its re-occuring.

    So far we've had 2 "attacks" both first thing in the morning. I've washed all his bedding ect so hopefully no more now.

    *ETA* Have added some pics to my gallery. These pics are not his worst, When it was at its worse I was in that much of a panic to get him to hospy.

    hey hey

    Sarah, thats great news It's such an awesome noise, hearing the heartbeat

    Kass, Brendan is fine now, rash went away by Sunday with help of antihistamines and has had noo reaction since, yet we are still doing the same things as last week? Very odd!

    I'm still spotting which is annoying, but it's old, so I'm not worried. Almost 9 weeks! YAY!

    Charli is now 4975g and growing very well says the MCHN, she is starting to have a long sleep at night 4-6 hours between feeds followed by the usual 3hrs which is great cause it means im getting a bigger block of sleep at one time.

    Hope everyone else is well, thanks for the chrissy cards, i have lots now and feel so popular. haha

    Merry christmas to everyone and i hope you all have a great one if i dont get a chance to get back on.

    GL with the net Amy
