Smith took a peak at the nursery photos it is so exciting when everything is all set up. We have finished our nursery it is all blue and with an ocean theme. As this is boy number two and we didnt need to buy a lot DH went a bit nuts and bought all the matching stuff for the kids line calypso design. It is so cute but we already have shoved all the christmas and birthday presents in the cot. gotta store them somewhere. lol
yay saph i bet it looks beautiful sweety well done i just love the ocean so great choice hunny .
were getting there hun woohoo
ive actually been saying to dh the last couple of days i really think were having a baby this time and "he says yes babe lol" but im still in shock i think lol.
Saph: How exciting! You'll have to post some pics of your nursery! I too am doing an Under the Sea theme and have also bought most of the Kidsline Calypso range and some stickers for the walls but have absolutely no idea where to start! Give me inspiration!!! Please!!!
LMHAC: ! Hope you do get time to pop on in & hope all is well with you!
mitf: YAY for awesome levels! Hope you're feeling good!
Grub: Gotta love Mums! I love it when mine comes to visit, my house is never cleaner LOL How you hanging in there?
Greenslw: I'm with you! Hoist em up! And it's great to see someone that can have a good relationship with their DSS and some time alone together to talk without interruption from others I'm jealous!
Persephone: How you doing hun?
A big :bellyrub: to everyone else I missed, hope you're all doing well.
AFM: Having a bit of a shocking time at the moment. The sciatica has been giving me trouble and I'm not sleeping well. Then in the last few days some family dramas popped up, a lot of S*%t going on and to be honest I'm pretty much on the verge of cracking. And the last thing I need right now is stress and drama. But I have some great friends, one in particular who has just been my rock and keeps me distracted long enough to stop crying for a few hours. Anyway I've decided that my way of "dealing" with it is to lock the doors, switch off the phone and just go into lockdown for a few days and they can all go jump. I'm through with being everyone's punching bag. For once in my life I am putting me and my baby first.
Anyway enough of a rant from me, I will stop right there (sorry ). On a better note, counting down 2 weeks & 1 day til my next scan, and I really can't wait! Hey, can anyone tell me, at this early stage, how often is bub supposed to be kicking? It seems to have quietened down in there a whole lot the last few days, I thought either it's moved into another position or maybe it was from the stress I've had? Either way I don't want to ring my OB and seem panicky if there's no reason to worry.
Have a great day guys, hope some of you get good wins this afternoon. I am SO not a gambler so it's just another non-event for me, don't even know who's running!
boc - i find my bubba has busy days and quiet days. i also find if i'm super busy, i don't notice his movements as much. if you are worried, try having glass of juice or a reall cold drink, or coke or such and lay down for 20-30 mins. you should feel some movement then. sorry to hear your back is playing up... have you got youself a man-pillow??? the are really good, that and getting on all floors and just sort of moving your bum from side to side helps
saph - i think that's lovely our dh is so into the decorating side o things. the upside of my dh going away is i can get in and decorate. he's a bit of a stick in the mud like that and can't understand why i want matching stuff etc. we have gone barnyard themed, which can be used for a 2nd child if we are lucky enough in a few years' time.
hi smithy - feeling any better these days?
lilmisshavachat - looking forward to hearing from you soon.
mitf - those numbers look really good sweetie! you must have been relieved.
poppyfairy - that is a very good point re swine flu numbers! and i really liked what you said saph - if it ain't safe for a 3yr old, why would it be safe for my bubba via me?
how are you greenslw? lise? miss tania? seph? bdt? bella? lenny? melbel? and the girl's i've missed mentioning (sorry lovelies).
AFM - mum has gone now but yep i was spoilt. loved having dinner cooked every night and there's nothing like mum's cooking she also bough bluey his barnyard-themed cot set etc. I'm just buying a few extra matching pieces, should look good
also put her to work doing cleaning lol and went to lunch and such. it was so nice actually! i am now awaiting the arrival of my sister thursday week. so just over a week alone again but i am booking in for a breastfeeding classs at our hospy and have pilates on sat and doc appointment etc. also have a good book just started and need to sort out chrissy pressies. so it'll all go pretty quick.
its 37C here atm i'm hiding insde with fans and the a/c (and the fur baby). but did go for a swim this morning - divine! feels sssoooo goooodddd. Also got the tripod out and tried to do some arty farty black and white naked preggy pics. a couple turned out okay, and it killed an hour of my time!
BOC - Ithink you are doing the right thing - putting you and bubs first - we have all worked so hard for this dream so don't feel guilty about looking after number 1. We don't need extra stress as this journey is enough! Take care sweet.
Smithy - the nursery looks great!
Saph - sorry to hear your still struggling with pain - it will be nice to have a focus date!
Grub - hope your enjoying time with your mum and coping ok without DH xxxxx
Mitf - great numbers Take care i'm sure more symptoms arn't to far off!!!
Big hello and lots of belly rubs to everyone.
AFM - rotating between days where i can't get out of bed i'm so tired i want to sleep all day and days like today where i have all the energy in the world and can't help but to nest and do crazy things like what iv'e just done - i have just moved all the couchs (i know i know i shouldn't) and cleaned behind them and rearranged the lounge room I'm insane really! I am really ready for these bubs to arrive! I'm getting very frustrated and bored and have lots of symptoms that io read into being more than i think they are! Anyway scan tom then appt Friday will keep you all posted.
