Wow It's been ages and I'm a bad BB member
Who would have thought parenting could take up so much of my time.
Well life is pretty amazing Lincoln is so active and such a chatter box. DF is really calm and in a good place which brings me back to BB with some very exciting news. DF out of the blue after me dropping the subject has agread to us using our Frosties. so excited. Not really wanting to breath a word of this to anyone around at the moment, due to never really knowing how things will go. But I'm just over the moon.
Look forward to sharing with you guys and hearing what you've all been up to.
We are well in my neck of the woods - Miss J is just amazing - I can't believe that she is 3 already. All going well with the new bubs that I am baking - time seems to be racing by. 20 week scan in 2 weeks so I am almost 1/2 way there!
can't remember how the rest of the song goes, but it involves yelling, yes?
we're trundling along. no baby plans as yet. hey, we're finally getting round to writing wills. anyone written in something about frozen embryos? like giving partner permission to use/donate if one of us dies...?
hi! just poking in here before my time! hope that is ok..wasn't planning on repling but..
MadB ~ ours had that in our IVF thing... basically through the IVF clinic we had to sign a thing saying what would happen to our embryos if one of us died, and if we had any frozen sperm if DH gave me permission to use it if he died.
MadB - ours was with our paperwork also - I think we may have filled it out as part of our Psych appointment (preggie brain not helping me much at the moment!)
Tei - come and join us! Looking forward to your BA soon.
nope, they forgot our pysch appointment, too. lucky we're not crazy. much. (my clinic is a bit crap sometimes)
i haven't gotten round to paying my latest rent fees - astronomical, by the way, given how little space they take up - so maybe when I call I'll ask about it.
Good to hear from you Green!!! Can't believe Lincoln is almost 2.5, where did that time go??? And so glad to hear you're trying for number two, have my fingers crossed for you that it's an easy journey xx Where are you up to in the process?
Janie, wow, almost half way now, woo hoo! When is your scan? Are you going to find out the colour of your bundle?
MadB, I really must write my will too, neither DH or I have one which is very bad. But like some of the others have said, i'm pretty sure we had to sign paperwork when we did IVF (we did ours in Vic, not sure if that makes a difference?) regarding what would happen to our frozen embies if one of us died. I certainly remember we had to discuss it at our counselling session so at least we know what we would do even if we can't find the paperwork! How much are your storage fees if you don't mind me asking? I just paid mine again, we pay $150 each six months and we're coming up to three years. It was our intention to use our frozen embie this year but turns out we didn't need to So now we just need to work out if we want to try for number three or not. Seems funny to have this conversation when number two isn't even here yet but anyway...! I think i'd prefer to try and then if it doesn't work it wasn't meant to be, I don't think DH would want us going down the IVF path again given we'd be busy with two boys anyway and much much broker than before.
Big hello to Lenny, JBM and everyone else! It has been very quiet in here indeed. I must also confess to being a bad bb member - i've been working full time in the lead up to mat leave (which started this week, yay!) and in the past couple of months DS has had about three ear infections and tonsillitis (gotta love the first winter in childcare, NOT), and then thrush from all the antibiotics, so he's been a tad miserable poor little sausage. But other than that he's going really well, he'll be two soon (this baby is due the day after DS was, i'm very worried they'll have the same birthday) which has just flown by. He's such a funny little guy, very much his own person and we love him to bits.
Anyway, i'll stop rambling now (can you tell i'm on leave?!) but hope everyone is going well and looking forward to hearing from more of you xx
hey guys we are all busy it seems. i used to get annoyed when people who were in LTTC groups had their bubs and suddenly dissapeared ...... now i am one of them ??!!!
life just gets busy and even now i am supposed to doing something for dinner ???oops ...llol
my little fatty is almost 6 months now. so cute, heaps giggles and growing heaps !!
i cant believe how much i love him and the boys love him too ..
=) here are my middle of the night musings, whilst feeding my little girl.
its very odd... i always wanted hundreds of children, and we will deff have more one day, but atm i am truely happy with just DD. I never thought id feel this way. after experiencing a want and a need and a longing for so long its really nice to feel content =) her and i have been searching for eachother for so long, and times when i was ready, she wasn't and vise versa, i really do feel complete with her. ive never felt this truely content before, because ive always just experienced that empty want feeling.
does that make any sense? im typing one handed too... and it did come to me in the middle of the night.
