Mum's to be - Mt Ommaney Area

Merry Christmas ladies, i hope your all ahving a fantastic day with yuor gorgeous little families.

Mel, you didn't have a whinge darl you were only telling us of your situation and asking if we had any adice to offer you- im just sorry that your going through this it must be so hard especially after it lasting for so long and being pregnant and all. I think you've done extremely well to get this far, i'd be tearing my hair out by now! I wish there was something i could do to help you , i think if your gut is telling you that there is something more to this then maybe go and get a second even third opinion because at the end of the day you need to know the cause of his sleeping issues , it could be something simple but it could be something more (i hope it's not, but it's better to know this for certain and rule it out).

Your a great mummy and you should be very proud of what you have achieved! If you ever need to talk or want to catch up for a cuppa i'm not far away just let me know and i will be there ok :hug:


Christina - Hope your flight home was nice, have a safe holiday and i look forward to catching up again on the 7th January. Merry Xmas.

Becky - Merry Xmas! I did take the boys to see the lights at Springwood and they where absolutely amazing will definately go again next year -with any luck Corey will stay awake to actually see them next time! Did you go and see the ones at Collingwood Park...if so where they good?

Harmony - Merry Xmas to you and your family! Hope your enjoying your very first xmas with your little princess. Sorry we wont be able to catch up on the 7th...next time we will all met up at a time convenient to you...can't miss you again a third time!

Merry Christmas Everyone -

Oh my gosh Mel - i dont know what else to say to try and help! When he wakes is he waking up hungry? do u feed him breaky straight away? if so Give him a low-sugar, high-carbohydrate snack before bedtime. And maybe leave a bottle in the bed for him for when he wakes up. Also children who wake early often nap early, too, going for a nap within an hour or two of waking up. This is actually the end of their nighttime sleep! Try holding off the morning nap by 15 to 30 minutes every day until it falls an hour or two hours later in the day than it is now. After a week or two you should see a new pattern emerge. But that dosent seem the case if he is sleeping in the car after 8am.
Maybe he does have a second opion - there is some sleep school or something u can go too with him also - but u need a referal from gp!
But apart from all that how was your Chrissy?

Leah - thankyou! we did have a enjoyable 1st chrissy as a family! however DH was a spoil sport and wouldnt let me open presents at 4am when Bianca woke up for a feed! i had to wait until 6am! hehehe
How was ur chrissy?
Any yeh lets hope that we are 3rd time lucky and finally get too meet at next meet up!

How was everyone elses Chrissy? Besides the kids did u all get spoilt?
I didnt but we are planing on buying a new house early next year, and hopefully one with a pool so that will be my late chrissy present!

Hey everyone!!!

We all go spoilt here too! I got a Navman for my car... so now I wont have to rely on you Harmony... lol... should be fine! My parents also gave me a gold bangle, as well as a heap of other things.... my parents have always been known to go way overboard at Xmas time, and it doesnt look like they are getting any better with age... lol

Harmony - for a new house! Where are you thinking of going? Around the same area? My hubby is in Real Estate.... so let me know when you want to sell and he can give you some great tips and advice!! He works for the company with leading sales around my area! Thats so exciting! How has Bianca been treating you lately??

Christina - I bet your having a great time in good old Adelaide! Have some Balfours for me (She'll know what Im talking abut.... lol)

Mel - Awwww how ya going? Been getting any more sleep? How was your Xmas?

Leah - I went to Sprinwood too.... those lights were pretty impressive! We didnt get to Collingwood Park, ran out of time!!

Hi to everyone else! Gotta run I can hear Chels waking up! Mwah!!

Becky - my parents are the same!
I just told Kev about ur Husband - and already he is bombarding me with questions to ask you!
We are looking at a house on Saturday, and if we like it we will be putting our house up for sale straight away! And we are looking at the same area we are in now, but if we can afford to we wanna "up grade" a little so to say and go Middle Park, Westlake, Sinnamon Park area! However have been looking and for what we want we may end up at Springfield Lakes!
Bianca has been a right little cheeky bugga lately! she is definatly getting a character about her and attitude which everyone says is from me -but i dont think so!
She has grown soooo much - wait till u get too see her again!

Oh I cant wait - lol!!

Trust me Harmony, my husband will be more than happy to answer any questions you have!! Let us know if you do want to list straight away, because he can do some research and locate THE BEST agent in your area and set everything up with them for you to list! If you want any info, you can give me a call if you like, or I can give you Anth's number. Anth is off all weekend or in the office again on Monday.

Thats so exciting about house hunting! I cant wait til we can look for something bigger!

I cannot wait to see little Bianca again!!! Its so cute when they get little personalities hey? Gee my Chelsea has certainly developed one in the last few months! LOL

hahaha i bet she has!
Thank you also - Kev would love to have a chat! what time would be best for u guys?

Hello girls, glad to hear you all had a lovely Christmas and got spoilt...even though you had to wait until 6am Harmony!!!

Becky...woohoo for the navman that's awesome, they are so good i'd be lost without ours (ours isn't a navman but it's still great).Those lights were very impressive i thought - Aaron loved them!

Harmony , omg how exciting to be looking for a new house ...Springfield Lakes woohoo that's where i am - we love it here it is so family orientated, lots of outdoor activities, great school, friendly neighbourhood i could go on and on but i won't. I hope this house your looking at today is just what you want so you can get your place on the market and start the new year in your new house!

Mel, how are you darl? Hope Santa was good to you all. How's everything going with your ealry rising lil man?

Christina , how are you hun? I hope your got spoilt and are enjoying your time back at home. How's Joshy been - no more asthma attacks i hope. Take care and enjoy the rest of your time away.

AFM, I'm very happy and got spoilt rotten DH & I got a cruise for xmas we are heading off up north on the P&O Pacific Sun in late February for a week can't wait will be brilliant!
Mum and Dad left this morning and asked if they could take the boys home with them (we are going down tomorrow) so it's just me and DH home today...thinking we might go out tonight to celebrate our 11th anniversary yesterday.

HAVE A GREAT DAY GIRLS

Leah - A CRUISE!!!!! U sooooo scored! and a night alone with ur Hubby!!!! Bargin!!! my gosh im jealouse!
The house we looked at today was nice on the outside - but too much work on the inside! i don't want too do any renovations or anything (been there done that) and if we have to i want it to be minimal!
For what we are looking at and our price range it is looking more like Springfield Lakes - which i don't mind cause its alot newer out there - but than its a bit futher from work! either way i dont mind i just want a bigger house and a pool!!!!! im not fussy - hahaha

Harmony...i know we scored big time didn't we! I am sooooo lucky!!!

Bummer about the house you looked at today but i'm sure something better will come up - keep looking there is always new house being listed for sale ....actually the house across from mine is for sale, although it doesn't fit the criteria your looking for...it's nice but small, no pool but you could always come across the road and use our spa,hehehe! When we first moved up it was a toss up between Springfield Lakes or Narangba - Narangba you got more for your money but wasn't as easy access to the highway nor did it have all of the facilities we have here. I think it's just a matter of looking every day on the internet and taking it from there. Goodluck i hope you find something suitable soon.

Hey all!!

Oh all this house hunting... how exciting! I cant wait til its our turn too ... lol. Our house is sooooo small!! We do have a nice backyard which I guess is one thing. i would love to move to Springfield lakes too Leah.... although I might have some convincing to do with DH. He does love the area, but he really wants to move down a bit and get some acreage.... Not sure... I do usually get my way though.... lol!!!

Leah - OH WOW a cruise! have you ever been on one before? That will be soooo nice! And especially a week with no kids.... lol. Wow 11 years!! You must have been high school sweethearts??

Harmony - See ya tomorrow!!!! :)

Everyone else!! See ya soon!! Looking forward to our catch up... someone will haev to give me the address closer to the date! Should be fine now though with my Tom Tom.... lol

Becky - would just like to say thanks for having us over today - was great to see you again! and Kevin says a exspecially big thank you - he got alot out of his chat with Anthony! so can u thank him again also for us! :lol:

No probs Harmony!!

Was great to see you guys again, and meet Kev!! Bianca awas gorgeous! A little angel! Cant wait to catch up again very soon!!!

Hello Ladies!!

My Chrissy was great! I must say the nicest Christmas in nearly 20 years! So relaxing and enjoyable. Sounds like everyone else had a great one too!!!

Leah you certainly got spoilt with a cruise didn't you!! That's going to be so much fun!!

And Becky you got a navman!

Harmony I hope your first Christmas day with your precious little girl was very special. Luke has slept until 4:30 am the past 3 mornings.. but I think this is due to the Polaramine the doctor prescribed for his congestion (helps them sleep). But I'm not complaining!! After 3 nights I'm starting to feel a little normal!

I had my 19 week scan last week, and they said they couldn't see enough of the face and heart and I have to go back in 2 weeks for another one. The first couple of days after you think.. oh, everythings fine... but as the days pass by I am getting more nervous wondering whether something is wrong? I never had to do this with my previous 3. I'm sure everything will be ok.. but I can't help wondering/worrying! Anyone else had to have a second morphology scan?

Looking forward to catching up next week :D

Mel x

Hey Mel!
I didnt have to have a 2nd Morphology scan - but my first one took almost 3hrs cause Peanuts wasnt co-operating! i would look at it this way - at least u get to go back and see ur little one again - i wish u had more scans during a pregnancy - i could never tire of seeing my little bub! so yeah look on the bright side of things - and dont worry im sure all is A OKAY!!!!!

Just thought i would pop my head in and see what everyone is up to tonight?

Hi everyone!

Harmony - Yeah we didnt do much! My parents came round and we had a games night (We love games nights! LOL). Thats about it though. A nice quiet relaxing night. Did you end up seeing midnight in?

So whats the address for this playcentre for Wednesday? Im going to just trust my Navigator and hope I get there. LOL

Hey hey!

I should be able to make it to this play centre place - anyone mind if I bring a friend with me? She has a 2 yr old boy, and another due in Feb. She isn't on BB, but I've only met Harmony, and if she isn't going, then I need someone to hold my hand! I'm TERRIBLE at meeting people - get really nervous, and wither don't talk much, or too much!

And also, how would I know any of you when i get there?

Becky - i love game nights too -but kevin dosent like playing with me cause i always win! exspecially monopoly!
i almost saw midnight in - Bianca wouldnt go to sleep until 2330 - she had bad reflux! but as soon as i got her too sleep i jumped into bed and was out like a light bulb! couldnt stay awake for last 30mins at all!!!

Ali - u woss - hahahaha
