Smithy~ I just watched your latest youtube vid.....oh my.What a pretty little girl you have there!! She truly is breathtaking.I loved her having a shower with her daddy....precious!
Havnt been on lately as i havent been receiving my emails so im not sure what everyone else has been upto.
Has Green had her bub?
I dont have much to report except that i look like i am 5 months instead of 13 weeks! Plus my boobs have grown...wow! My nipples are the size of dinner plates which im a little unsure of.I think they look too big but if that makes it easier for bub to find his/her dinner,then so be it.
I have finally resorted to Metamucil as im really constipated and oh my,has my appetite returned.I lost 2kgs in the first 3 months but now have gone back up to my 47 kgs which im happy about.
Today i had toast,cereal,juice,peppermint chocolate,more juice,leftover chicken stirfry with rice,banana,dinner(mince-potato's-pasta),custard,cordial.
That is HUGE for me...considering i have been forcing myself to eat fruit,dry crackers and only dinner for the past 3 months.hehehe.No more food aversions.I even had a big mac meal yesterday which i have recently been disgusted over the mere thought of previously.looks like bub is set to do some major growing now... LOL
Hi all, I am thinking green is holding her little bundle now.
Just a quick one from me I am in hospital for the second day. My blood pressure went up and bloods showed preeclampsia starting. BP settled over night and was just about to go home with strict instructions to rest but didnt even make it out of bed before it had gone up again. So the next plan was to induce me tomorrow but then he has moved his head. The head that has been engaged the whole time is now not, so induction is off and if he doesnt move i have been told to prepare myself for a C section on monday. Please keep your fingers crossed for me that he puts his head back down and we can meet him tomorrow. Even though I was booked in for cs i really didnt want one.
Another gorgeous Video Smithy... You are one very talented woman with one very beautiful girl...
BDT - I so glad the girls are both growing ok... So sorry about the possible Cholestasis.. Sounds very uncomfortable.. Fingers crossed here that the BT is negative... Come on girls we want a head down and natural labour to start.. As for my pain the midwife said it's just me stretching and there's nothing I can do about it so i will cope... See you Saturday..
Wantbaby#2 - So good to hear that you have your appetite back... Bubs will love you for it... Grow little one..
Saph204 - Good luck Hun.. I really hope that he will put his head back down and start labour himself or ay least to allow the induction... Head down vibes coming your way...
Hello all. Hope you are well. I'm at work worse luck. I just cannot wait to give up. I hope there's no spycam watching me write this...
Smithy High Pants - love love love your video. I love the section of Charlie in the shower with her Dad. That's such a lovely thing to capture.
BDT - sorry to hear about the toxic blood thing... sounds grim. Hope you get the right result, but just think, babies soon! I hope Aria (sp?) catches up soon. How lucky to be having twins.
Saph - blimey - it's all go in here. I hope that the head goes back where it should be!!! Good luck for the next few days.
Paula/ Lise/ Mitf/ wantbaby - hope you are all and swelling nicely! I am highly disgruntled this morning after not getting a seat on the tram. I was sticking my belly out (to make sure I wasn't confused with a pie-eater) and rubbing it too. Grrrrrr. I had curry for dinner last night, and I swear it made the baby move.... can't wait for DH to come home so I can bore him rigid with all my imaginings
Everyone else I send belly rubs to esp Greenslw who must be finished pushing now, I hope!!! have a lovely Friday ladies
Hi girls, sorry for the me post . But I had to tell someone and DH is on the phone. My test for cholestasis was actually positive, I am off to get the script for tablets to ease the itching (thank God) and will be on daily CTG monitoring from here. And....we are booked in for Csection on Wednesday morning I can't believe we are finally going to meet our girls. Very excited!!!
BDT Oh my goodness how exciting!!! You'll have a busy four days till then. I'm assuming you are all ready and bags packed and so on? In which case I think you should spend four days reading and doing things you'll not be able to do after then!! Very very best wishes for wednesday and I hope it all goes well. x
SAPH~ I hope your baby re engages.If not,you will be fine.I know a c section isnt what most women want but at the end,when you have your bub,safely in your arms,it really wont matter how he entered the world.As long as you are both safe,thats what is important.I do hope his head moves down again though so you can relax more.My thoughts are with you.xxxx
BDT...WOOHOO WOOHOO way to go and bring on wednesday how exciting sweety finally youll be meeting your two little beauties cant wait to hear your ba...EXCITING
Hi ladies well he's here I have a BOY Lincoln Gregory Stan was born 7.09pm on Monday 9lb3oz 54cm long (so much for average hay) He is growing heaps and put on a weeks worth of weight in two days.
I'm a little fragile I tried to brest feed and it's not working, pumping is so hard and I've come to the conclusion I'd rather spend the time with my little man than on a machine. Home from Hosp today. DH has next week of which is great. I really can't wait to settle into a ruitine.
Yeah! Many many congratulations on the birth of your baby boy! I hope you and DH are well and that your long baby is plumping up nicely So pleased to hear your DH has a week off, hope he's looking after you. Congratulations again x
Congratulations Greenie!!! on the arrival of (not so) little Lincoln!!!!
Hope you, DH & DSS are enjoying your babymoon!
Man, must be something in the water last April/May, of people I know there's been 8 new arrivals in the past week-and-a-half! My cousin (that I think I mentioned before) gave birth yesterday to the first baby girl in our family for over 20 years! So exciting. This next 9 weeks are going to be excruciating, I WANT MY COOKIE NOW!!!!!
Oh and Smithy, you've gone and done it now woman! I'm a blubbering mess after that absolutely beautiful and touching video! (and I'm not a cryer either). You've cracked the ice queen!
I guess I really should update the EDD list, finding it hard to keep up will post it shortly.
Congratulations Greenslw on the arrival of Lincoln. Hope you are settling in at home and enjoying your babymoon... see you when you feel ready in the parenting thread.
Janie and Jasmine xxx
P.S. Just read your note Nic - Hehehe - you just never know!
Ok so here 'tis! No doubt I will be updating again in the next week for the lovely Saph & BDT!
As per usual, if I have missed someone, I am so sorry, please let me know! Paula, for some reason I don't have you here, could you please give me your details?
Oh holy cr@p!!! I'm nearly up the top!!!
No rush just yet but just something for you girls to think about, someone will need to take over from me when the time comes... any takers??? It doesn't take a lot, just copy & paste but you have to manually edit the colours, but the whole thing only takes 5-15mins, depending on how many changes there are, and how much your computer likes to "play nice"

Congratulations Green on the birth of your son Lincoln.We have all been IMpatiently waiting for your good news
What a big boy.(He isnt a giant but i really wanted to add a jawdrop for fun)I hope the breast feeding works out.Its hard work but im sure you will get there.
Please take time to recoup and enjoy your little man,and when you have time,please post some pics.
Yay Green, congrats on the arrival of the new man in your life. I'm so happy he arrived safely for you and DH, but you didn't add to the pink theme as you thought you would. Looking forward to seeing you in the parents thread soon.
BDT: Wow, your beautiful princesses will be here so soon. I can't wait and am looking forward to the news.
Saph: Looks like your next, hope your little boy gets back in gear for you.
BOC: I think you are the last on the list who joined up while I was still in here cooking my beautiful Tara. So scary to think that your time will be here soon as well.
Smithy: Why aren't you with us in the parents thread yet, I'm demanding you join us as Murph and Grub are back to their old tricks and we need you to add your 2 cents worth now as well. Plus it is so much fun now that we are all "mummies" together after being "mummies to be" together. Also, you made me cry with the beautiful movie you made, I even jumped onto Itunes straight away and bought the song "In my Daughters eyes" it was so moving and as Tara was laying in bed with me at the time I felt I just needed to have it to share with her as well.
