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.

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.
Mitffor 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 tomorrowstill 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!!!

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?

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.

Greenslw woohoo on the hormones x3.. hahaha
Persephone congrats on finding out its a Boy!!
Nicole S thank you. Yes the double digits now. Every little milestone counts!
Grub good to hear Ashton is doing well and is growing strong.
mitf hope your midwife appointment goes well and you do get your bounty bag. Very exciting getting a "show bag". Only thing i was a little dissapointed about was that there werent many samples.
poppyfairy must be so amazing to snuggle your little booby monster in your arms.
Smithy wooohooo on your induction date. Thats so soon. Very exciting. Two weeks till you have baby Charlie in your arms.
Big hello to all the ladies i didnt mention
As for me, i am doing really well. Have been feeling brilliantly. No sickness at all just tired every afternoon but unfortunately i am at work so have to soldier on, no nanna nap for me! Looking forward to the 1st Feb to see the both munchkins again and also fly out on our lil trip.
this has always been the plan hun as this is what my o/b likes to do with his ivf babies not sure why his choice and dh and i are more than happy to go with this as ive had all my 4 girls at 38 weeks except jaymee and she was 36 ,i have come 3yrs of ivf and worry about loosing my baby every day and am not willing to risk ageing placenta,i have spewed for 36 weeks now non stop been in and out of hossy and im so over it and i want my baby out lol
here on bb i have a post it girl who my dh will call when bub arrives and shell let everyone know on the day

Hello ladies, I hope you are all well. It's raining here, so I'm delighted although the hound is bored to death already (typical!). Poppy - OMG - 5 hour feeds?!! Your boobs must be deserving of a medal by now! Hope he settles down sometime soon.
Paula, mitf, wantbaby - and anyone else in the Under 20 weeks section... I'm going to have a quick rant. My lovely cousin who lives here has astonishingly got his girlfriend pregnant (he thinks he's a playboy) and we had lunch yesterday and she's two weeks more than me. And she's as flat as a pancake and I'm looking distinctly paunchy. I'm afraid my rather uncharitable first thought was that she isn't pregnant at all, but that's mean isn't it. But I can't see how you can be sixteen weeks and not show remotely!!! So you can tell me if I am being unreasonable, which I know I am. I know everyone's bump is different, but can it be soooo small? Or am I really eating too much??? I'm finding it increasingly hard to sleep at night, I wake up every 2 hours or so. It's driving me mad. And the dreams... they are crazy. Is it just me?
I loved KI, we were there for three days. Just a short propeller plane ride from Adelaide. It was truly beautiful **TMI** the lovely new nightie did the trick, overlooking the balcony and a turquoise view of the bay. That ought to shut him up for a few days
right stroppy bored hound wants walking, I don't think she gets that I'm "working at home" not here for constant dog entertainment... sorry for the me post. Everyone has done such good jobs on the persies recently I'm embarrassed to even start! DH away in Sydney tonight, Brisbane Thurs, then Delhi for 10 days on Saturday - he's missing the dogs first birthday. But anyway, tonight it's veg curry, DVD, box of chocs, dog on my feet. Lovely xx
