Pregnancy after Long Term TTC - Dec 2007

[mako]

C'MON little bugalugs. Your mummy and daddy want to meet you and us girls in BB want to "meet" you too
Sazz I hope the oils work for you hun. They sure sound nice. Atleast you know that by Friday you will have your precious little bundle in your arms. Take care

Satya All the best for the amnio tomorrow. Know that I'm thinking of you

DJTTC Thanks for your kind words. I'm feeling a bit more relaxed about giving Sage some formula every now and then. He's had 3 bottles in the past week or so. I just find it makes him chuck more than usual. Have you noticed that Jenna does this too???

Lenny I had to laugh at your post about the pram. Atleast you have one before bubs arrives. I only picked ours up just before Christmas. I had to carry Sage everywhere when we went out lol.

Ltl Panda How are you? Haven't seen you for a little while. Hope all is ok with you.

My BB's are still quite sore. I'm on my last day of antibiotics too. I guess I'll have to wait and see how things go after that. I have been using pawpaw ointment on my nips which seems to have made a huge difference. Will keep that up

Sage is doing well. He is 12 weeks old today and is trying his best to roll from his back to his tummy. He has been rolling from tum to back for almost a month now. He has even started to giggle which is sooooo cute.
His sleeping pattern is still all over the place. We've had 2 nights where he has gone 7 hours and nights like last night where he was awake for most of the night. We only had 4 hours sleep all night I hope tonight will be better.

Hi to Ktgirl, marcellas, Traceylee,Lis,Alice, Monnie and anyone I have missed. I hope you are all doing well.

Hi again
Are we all checking in regularly to see if Sazz is still around...? Inhale deep!

Get used to those veins Satya! And good luck for your amnio tomorrow. I know what you mean about worrying about sneezing. I had to have a biopsy in my neck once. they said, whatever you do, don't swallow. so what did i immediately and desperately need to do...? Anyway, based on what Tracy says it sounds like a breeze. Hope the results are all good (and you don't have to wait any longer for your doc)
Oh, and I agree, that's your little baby making itself felt in there!

Yay on your sleep and clean hair Jo! I do remember you suffering with constant braxies. Mine are nowhere near that bad, thankfully.

Glad to hear your mum's coming to help out Lenny. Mine doesn't live so far away so execting lots of help... I'm starting to think - does it matter if we don't have a pram when Jelly comes...?

Lenny - that is so great that your mum is coming to help you & please take my advice if someone asks if you need help or offers to do something TAKE IT!
The first week or so bubs tend to sleep a bit so try to sleep as much during that time as you can (I'm stupid because I didn't follow my own advice).

I am so lucky my mum lives 10min away & she has been at my house pretty much every day & it's been great.

I can even leave bub with her for awhile to go do grocery shopping because it is really hard to go shopping with a baby during school holidays & in 40 degree heat!

Mako - I can't believe Sage is 3 months old, Jenna is 9.5 weeks but she's already not a baby anymore she is growing so quickly & is just so alert.

Now because I know what you are going through I really hope that you have a good night tonight, isn't it funny in the last stage of pg when you're not sleeping well you say I'm so tired but that really is nothing compared to the broken sleep you get when you have a newborn. (I hope I'm not scary anyone).

As for the formula I have been really lucky as Jenna is not a chucky baby the one thing that gets me is the smell of formula poo, oh my god I just changed one about an hour ago & it smells like a rat died in her room!!!
