poppyfairy -=- Robin Patrick is beautiful! Seeing all these new babies all you girls have been having has gotten me so impatient to get through the next 15 weeks! They are all just so gorgeous!
Cant write a book today.. DS is waiting for me to come and play trucks ahh the duties of mummyhood
Me and DH were talking yesterday.. And hes agreed to help me save up to finally apply for TAFE next yr and start off on a veterinary nursing cert to boost me up to a vet course in uni! After my 2010 break to stay at home with DS and Jelly bean of course.. So that was another lil thing to look forward to Im going to start gathering all the info I need about how to go about it over the next yr so I can jump in the deep end in 2011!
Anyway must go.. Hope you are all feeling well today, and grnslw, Im Hopeing today is your day!
Kyra that is fantastic that you are going back to study. It is really important to have something that is solely yours outside of the children. TO have your own identity other than such and suches mum.
I spoke to a careers counsellor today and worked out a gameplan.. Ive had a rocky start to education so its a long road ahead.. But there IS a road Ive decided while on my year off Im going to individually try to do a bit of self study and practise on maths and sciences so I can get myself a head boost and be ready for some of the things ill be takeing on. Its all a little scary and I have some feelings of self doubt because I was never the best maths student, not even in the easier maths subjects..and part of what ill be needing to study is maths B.. But Im puting that down to slacking off and going through some things back in high school that im not going to have a problem with now, especially with a set goal in mind.
Sorry to rant.. wish me luck anyway! Hope everyone is feeling ok
Well i am awaiting the call. My SIL was induced on Sunday and after what seems like cr@p service from a public hospital they finally broke her waters this morning. I cant wait for little snuggles.
KellyD, that's crazy!! How on earth do you girls carry anything that big? I think my full term size was you at 20 weeks or at least 28 weeks, and BOC was my full size at about 8 weeks I still keep thinking of Neptune's little boy born at 4.5 kilos and when I see how much Jazz has grown to be now 4 kilos, I realise how little she was. Thanks for the photos, it was fun to compare.
Smithy...awww, you know you are the most loved girl in this forum, we are always thinking of you cos you always think of us. I took that photo just for you too
Not too much time for persies but just wanted to say I'm sorry to Lise for the loss of your grandfather and Littlemiss for the loss of DH's dad. I'm sure it's a bitter sweet time but you will get through it and those babies at the end will help to heal the pain.
Also just quickly to Kyrawolf, it's exciting gettting a gameplan together like you are. Congrats and good luck with that. Just on the point you made about not being the best at maths at school, you wipe the slate clean when you go back to study as a mature student. My DH never even passed year eleven, joined the Army at 17 with no schooling to speak of and later went on to have a whole second career - excelling at tafe, then teaching at tafe, then excelling at uni, then teaching at uni and now in two weeks will have finished his Doctorate and be a fully fledged research ecologist. You go girl, you can do anything !
Poppyfairy, what a cute little mate. Your life is going to be just wonderful and you will be a fantastic Mum.xox

: Forgot a persie
Hi all this will be a me post. Finally good news my SIL had a boy at 8.34pm weight wait for it 10pd4. OMG I had to ask my brother twice if he was joking.
But I went out in sympathy for her and had a bleed last night, so off we went for monitoring. Everything is fine bleeding was only small and has stopped and monitoring was fine. He went off like a jack in the box like a good little boy. (How is this for bad, my ob forgot I was there waiting for her to see me and went home. I had to talk to her over the phone as she explained that is was probably just the placenta coming away a bit. Nothing to worry about and the blood was mine) Dam and here I was hoping he was coming sooner.
Oh well, hope everyone is doing really well, off to get my baby snuggles this arvo.
[B]Smithy [/B]How's your 2 week count down going? just wondering what did you do with your belly cast? I'm thinking mounting on a canvas but not sure how to fill all the gaps, My belly isn't nice and cemetrical and flat. THought about gap filler but I don't want an explosion.
lilmiss thanks for your kind workds I hope pain is gone for labor too. for you and DH re FIL had to have such a sad thing happen when you're suposed to be so happy.
Lise such a sad thing to happen around Christmas
kyra hope the truck games were great, I can't wait to play games with Squeak
Hi Murph hope you and family are enjoying all the little things
Saph few thankgoodness all is ok, thanks for your thoughts. So good to hear your SIL and bubba are all well, you next hay?
ATM NEW WOMAN ALERT! Saw my OB who really isn't worth all the money I've paid but she put me on some pain killers and the midwife (who I think is a dead set legend) suggested I put my hip band from the physio on my belly. Well I did and instant relief.
It is all in my muscles aparently! Baby is requiring more room than I have to give. So with a few little pills and some good support I slept! still got up hourly to pee but I slept!
DH has been so emotional about me being in pain too which is really hard to deal with atm, I can't fix it for him and it's so hard to watch him cry about my pain, I'm glad he is paying attention but at the same time I don't think I can focus on anthing but me.
Oh also I'm going to be an aunty again. My Brother and SIL are having their 3rd. In canada though, but they are talking about moving back to aus in 2013 hope so. I'm going in 2012 for a visit so Squeak and new bubba will be a good age to play together. I hope it's a girl for them they already have 2 boys 4 and 2. Busy house that's going to be.
Sorry I have a me post too, just had 2 nights in hospital after having some very frequent BH contractions and some weird stitch like pains on Wed night, so Dr wanted to keep me in for 24 hours + for some monitoring. I did get to have a full growth scan yesterday, unfortunately twin 1 is a little behind in dates, measuring 31 weeks 2 days and 1.8kg, and twin 2 measuring 33 weeks and 2.2kg (this was at 34 weeks gestation). They are still both within the range but I am worrying a little. Dr wants another full growth scan in the next two weeks and will make a decision then as to whether they are growing enough and whether to take the out, I am now totally fine if that means a C section, just as long as they are in the best possible place, either in or out. So trying not to stress, and now googling how to help the put on weight, as I am not sure I can possibly eat any more
Lilmiss, I think I will give yoga a miss as don't want to do anything to bring them on early, but might pop by after to coffee with you and the girls.
Greenslw, Saph, Smithy and Ella'smum, thinking of you. Hi to everyone else xx
