Pregnancy after Long Term TTC #8

[kyrawolfe]

Grnslw-=- teehee.. Enjoy the hormones while you can cuz after bubs comes they wont be around for a while Im glad ur sleeping better too Hmmm maybe it is finally that time huh? Good luck!

LM-=- Im not quite sure where Kangaroo island is but it sounds like you had a great time! All that relaxing on the beach and being away from home duties would be so refreshing... I just had a holiday in November up the sunshine coast and already Im missing the feeling

Peresphone -=- CONGRATS on the lil Blue bundle! Time to start decorating! I had a dream the other night that I had jelly bean and "he" was a boy too.. Do you think dreams have much to do with reality? I suppose even if they do it doesnt say much because Ive had dreams of having a pink jelly bean too Hope your feeling well!

lilmiss -=- How are you doing ??

Heya grub!! 100 points for effort girl that post was humongous! The move went great and I couldnt be happier with our new home We're settling in hopes of a very long stay if luck stays on our side we'll be here until we buy And thank you for the saving vibes Ive already started brushing up on some maths B sub subjects online at this free turoring website I found called Khanuniversity.com. Its actually really good and they have physics, chemistry, biology and heaps of other stuff up there with tutoring too so im going to find that mega handy when I start the course.. Contemplating starting in july but bubs will only be 2 months old so I will probably wait till feb next yr when things are more settled..

Sorry to here Ashton is having a colicky start.. DS was a Jan baby too ( he turns three on aus day) and had bad reflux and colic aswell.. I understand just how stressfull it is watching ur lil bub in so much pain and losing so much sleep etc etc.. And yes this time of year is disgusting heat too so you cant even really wrap them cuz they sweat to death! The first few weeks are so testing.. But you will get there hun! Gripe water I found worked amazing for DS and tyhey can have it from a really young age because its all natural.. You can get it from woolies or coles or any chemist.. Other then that just boiled water itself and patience i guess.. Hope this helps

Today is disgracefull! Im sitting here sweating like a pig with a bright red face (thank you for the pale pasty skin mum and dad :P) Bring on autumn hey girls! DS has been so good today and yesterday ... he's got his angel wings on Jelly bean kicking me all night again, and still seems to love laying across my belly and sticking its head out one side and its ... something? (knees/ legs/ feet??) out the other haha

Hope everyone is doing well.. Labour Vibes to our fed up 37+ weekers! <3 Ky

Poppy Fairy - Congratulations on the arrival of Robin. What a gorgeous little boy you have there. Enjoy the babymoon while you can!

Ella's mum, Green & smithy - sending lots of labour vibes your way. Good luck xx

Melbel - not long to go now. Good luck over the next two weeks. I hope bub doesn’t grow too much more.... doesn't sound like there's much room!

LM - I am not sure where Kangaroo Island is either but I am glad to hear you had a nice time. I am in desperate need of a holiday.... waiting to hear if DH can get some time off and hopefully we will have a babymoon in March.

Seph - Congrats on your baby blue!

Grub - I hope you are enjoying every minute of these early days with Ashton, Sorry to hear he has had a bit of colic. I hope it passes quickly.

Saph - congrats on becoming an aunty again. I hope you enjoyed those snuggles.

Kyra - good luck with your study. Don't worry to much about your maths. I have always found that things fall into place quicker with further study. It's amazing how your perspective changes when you are actually interested and have your sights set on a goal.

Lise –-sorry again to hear about your grandfather. I hope you are feeling a bit better.

Lilmiss - so sorry to hear about the loss of your FIL too.

Murph - thanks for the photo update. Jazzy is so gorgeous!

BOC - I have heard they can turn a baby with acupuncture. Not entirely sure how it works but it might be worth looking into.

AFM - We have had a busy week with interstate visitors. We finally got out evaporative cooling installed too. We ordered it back at the end of Nov and install day arrived. We got to use it 2 days before the cool change came through. I am really looking forward to my first appointment with the hospital midwife this week. Feels like we have been waiting for ever for this to roll around. I am hoping to hear the heartbeat again and we should get our bounty bag!

I best be off to bed. Sorry to those I have missed. Hope you are all well and had a lovely weekend.

LondonMiss I lived on KI for 2 years and we have property there it is very pretty, hope the relaxation leaves you well

Murph if you're really thinking of KI for a change happy to PM you re ups and downs. Bit cooler than your home right now.

Persephone congrats on a boy and Telstra is a must anywere away from the big smoke.

Grub i'm so glad you are doing well. Thanks for sharing your DH story. It is nice to see emtional DH every now and then. and also so reasuring to here you're not a zombie. Keep up the good work

kyra I hear you loud and clear about the weather. when pg it is really really hard to get cool. I still sleep fan on window open when it's 12C outside! Poor shivering DH.

Mitf for aircon I bet that makes your life 100x better. Enjoy reading through all the info in your bounty bag.

ATM wide awake again at 1.30am, "sigh" oh well it's nice in some ways to have the house nice and quiet and just have time to go through all my mum to be thoughts. besides I can sleep in tomorrow still not used to this not working thing ladies. Said that to DH today and he said you have 14 more weeks of this. I reminded him that Squeak would give me "lots to do" he seams to think "wish" that Squeak will be an easy baby and fit right in with our lives. I guess if you don't wish it then it wont happen but I think he's up in the clouds a bit?????

Had some extreme BH today while shopping, Made me stop in my tracks I must admit I though "oh no it's time" but when I stopped so did the pain. Now I'm even more scared of going into labor in public. That's it no shopping alone from now on. I think I could handle it if someone was there but on your own. I know nobody would mind (public) but it would be slightly scary...

Hi ladies! I would do persies but my beautiful boy wins the award for the fussiest baby in the Northern Hemisphere and as 5 minutes seems to be the longest I can leave him lying in his moses basket then 5 minutes is exactly how long I have on here!!

Thanks everyone for your lovely comments about my boy. I think he is absolutely delicious. I just love looking at him and snuggling him. Unfortunately he is rather fond of a snuggle as well and extremely fond of the boob so I am getting absolutely no sleep or time off being a snuggle and boob machine! He is a marathon booby monster and last night fed constantly from about 3am till 8 am!!! This has been happening almost every night of his little life and the daytime feeds are just as constant. The midwives say this is perfectly normal as he is building up his supply. I am learning to snatch an hour of sleep whenever he is. He does however also not settle anywhere apart from on my chest. So we have a little celebration everytime he settles in the moses basket for more than 5 minutes. We have certainly jumped right into the deep end and I guess the means that things can only get better......please??? LOL!

Good luck everyone and belly rubs. Looking forward to reading more of your posts as I lurk in this thread!!!

ok so i have our induction date drum roll...............
monday 1st feb were being induced at 8am with the drip so ill be 38 +3

[mitf]

Smithy - wow 1st Feb. Not long to go now! Must be exciting to have a date that you can work towards.... I was wondering though why are they inducing you early? Will you tell people before the date or just wait till the baby comes?

[saph204]

Smithy well done, We will be exactly one week appart. I am having my C section on the 8th. It is all a little scary knowing that in 3 weeks time life as we know it is going to change. DH is now having to stay home with me after I come home from hospital. We are hoping for only two weeks. As long as I can drive I will be fine. I have had no more bleeding but was praying that maybe I was about to go into labour. Well really should go and get out of my pjs.
