Hello all. Hello wishes, and hello Paula - thanks for telling us the name! Do 'real' people know or is it a BB secret? I won't tell anyone if it's a secret he he he
DH took me out for dinner last night to a super lovely restaurant. I rang the changes by wearing a blue tent instead of my normal black tent. Ended up with more food on my belly than in my mouth practically. The waitress came round with that funny little strigil type thing that they scrape up crumbs off the table with, and I swear she looked at my belly and wondered if she should do that too
My nesting continues apace, but it's more sort of planning and stuff. I'm very jealous of you girls who are having a babies room and can decorate and make it look pretty. Post lots of pics so I can get inspiration for when it does finally happen! Hope you all have a lovely long weekend with lots of rest! I've slept for eight straight hours with only one half asleep trip to the loo which is a gold star night for me, and only Little Miss I want to play football for England has woken me up with her kicking. But that's kind of cool. And it means I can take DH tea in bed which means I start the day off on brownie points too ...
SAMMIE~ I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo glad to hear from you.You really had me worried when you had been crying while typing your last post with a sick bub,then we dont hear anything for so long.I have asked,and asked but no word of how you were.I know i dont know you but i just couldnt stop thinking of you and baby Colt.I was telling my mum about ypur story and even she started asking me daily..."have you heard from the lady yet?" .... I prayed for you and Colt and am just over the moon that he is doing well....even WITHOUT eyebrows!! LOL. Oh good.I can relax now.(Deep sigh).Take care.Please post pics if you can. Are you on FB? I have joined with BOC on FB just so i can see her baby Jagger.I wont know how to post pics either when my time comes so mine will be via FB.
Londonmiss~ My bras are needing washing nearly every day as they are getting yellow flaky dried colostrum on the insides.When i take off my bra i have droplets of clear fluid on my nipples and have done so for a few weeks now.You said thers nothing except a horified DH when you squeeze? Thats o.k.Everyones different.I was "dripping" and soaking tshirts from 6 months on with DS but not this time...yet,so maybe thats my "thing'.LOL
Smithy~ Thanks for your post.It was very amusing.DH can happily use his own hand,i think.he has for this long without me.Im not that sweet to do 'favours'.LOL He is peeing me off lately so i DEFINATELY wont be giving favours.x
Everyone else i have been busy lately and havnt read the whole lot of posts...just skimmed through the shorter ones,but i will catch up later to see where everyones at.
Have a good Anzac day.DH an DS are still sleeping at 11am!! and im being lazy but will go and get my second lot of breakfast then come back later today.
Love to all.x
Paula - we've chosen a girl's name, but if the Chicklet does happen to be a boy, well it might take a bit longer! We've got a shortlist of male names but nothing that we both really love...
Wantbaby - what's your FB details? Will have to look you up And what kind of dolls do you make? You mentioned something about selling them on ebay? Can we take a look? And Sammiejam - are you on FB too? We can sneak a peek at your pics there if you have any!
Londonmiss - where did you go for dinner? DH and I are really missing Melbourne at the moment, particularly all our favourite restaurants and bars. We're trying to work out the logistics of taking the Chicklet to our favourite French bistro when we go to Melbourne (it's very small and cosy and not really pram friendly...!).
Wishes - good to hear from you! Glad things are going well even if you are still waiting on your furniture! Ours took about 8 weeks to arrive, though they said it could take up to 12 so I was actually pleasantly surprised. Perhaps that should be their tactic and then when it only takes 4 weeks you'd be super happy!!
Kyra - hope you're feeling okay, well actually I hope you're sitting there with a little bundle in your arms, but i'm trying not to continually ask 'are you there yet' cos i'm sure it's terribly annoying. Needless to say am continuing to send all sorts of labour and other good vibes your way xx
AFM - enjoying the long weekend at home very much. DH even cooked me my favourite breakfast this morning (minus the fetta, but hey, can't complain!) and then I went back to bed and read a book until lunch time. Heavenly. We then did a spot of shopping for the Chicklet - she doesn't need any more clothes whatsoever but we had some Pumpkin Patch vouchers we had to spend by tomorrow so we bought her a super cute party dress to wear to DH's brother's wedding in Canada!
Big hello to everyone else, though it seems like there's really only a few of us on here nowdays doesn't it? Come on any lurkers, come join us so we don't get sick of each other
Lise and anyone else interested...my facebook details are Alicia Toner.The profile pic is me in pink dress/brown hair with a blonde girl (my cousin). I have a facebook page also which shows the dolls i make (reborn dolls and tiny handsculpted babies from polymer clay) That page is called Creations To Love. Would love to see you on there.Anyone interested just add me and send a message saying your bb name so i know who you are Oh,the sex of our baby is a secret so please dont mention the sex while posting.My family would die if they knew people know and not them LOL!!!
Weighed myself today.I have gained 7 kgs.Im glad im putting on weight as i lost 2kg in the first trimester and use to be worried.
Peanut is very active and today i could see and feel a hard bump poking out.I was singing to her and she kicked REALLY hard....not sure if she LIKES my voice or not?! Going off what my son and hubby say about my voice,im guessing she is begging me to shutup LOL
Regarding the 'Lurkers" as described earlier,i agree it WOULD be nice for you all to pop in.The list has all these names with dates yet i dont know quite a few of them. So come say hi.
Hi Ladies.. Thanks so much for all your lovely words of congratulations.. We have had a pretty rough start to all this as you know he was a biggen (he's actually 10pound and 1 point 2 ounces not 12 ounces as my husbands msg kinda read.. A lot of people thought the same..) I am very proud to say that i got my natural V birth after 12 hours and 46mins active labour.. we needed the ventouse at the end when I just thought I was too tired but turned out he had shoulder distocia and was unceremoniousy turned in my birth canal luckily by a lady with small hands'.. lol.. I had a 3rd degree tear and the worst pain was the local anesthetic for the ventouse extraction... That is the birth of my beautiful boy.. (full story to come when I post it in the birth stories thread) Unfortunately after Ethan's birth and having been stitched I ended up back in theatre as my stitched area had been leaking a lot of blood and by the time they realised it wasn't a normal PPH I had lost about 3.5 litres of blood and ended up with 2 blood transfusions totalling 7 units of blood and woke up in intensive care.. We have made it home after 3 1/2 days in hospital... Things are fantastic but I have to express every 3 hours and feed him formula until my milk comes right in cause he has an unsatiable appetiet and I call him my Lil suck monster... To answer what I think it was Wantbaby#2's question for names.. We chose Boh as his middle name as that was my FIL's name who passed away on the 3rd January this year from cancer.. very special to us..) I will be back at a point when I have some more time to be able to post some photos.. Good luck those that are getting close and trust your body.. Birth is amazing...

I have just come across from the LT TTC forum. I have only just found out that i am pregnant My FET cycle was cancelled last month so i had a natural cycle. I was up to 50 days in my cycle and thought something must be up, that and the fact my bladder is going crazy. So i did a POAS on Sat and got a BFP straight up, got in for a BT on the same day and they confirmed the result. I am now paranoid everytime i feel an ache or pain and am just waiting for something to go wrong. It hasn't sunk in yet at all.
