Aww Melissa - Sorry to hear your feeling so uncomfortable! Yeah - you'd hope bubs stays in for a bit longer to be nice and healthy...I had Louis at 38w and he was fine other than we had to watch his temp a bit...
The trampoline sounds fantastic! Good luck with Olivia's needles today!
Can I just say that I am the biggest sook out. Olivia had her needle, cried for a minute and I cried for nearly an hour!!!! Then I went shopping and several hundred dollars later...I am happy to say I have all my xmas and b'day presents done!!!! Except my mums and a wedding.....
Good morning....very quiet in here. Although its my daily routine to pop on the laptop while making breakfast. This networking stuff makes it so much easier to surf the net in my house. I even go out on the deck to do it too!!!!
Well I went out for a hens night last night and we did belly dancing. I was having a great time, giggled a bit to hard though and had a bladder bouncing ooppssie and then cramped up for the rest of the night. Oh well I still had fun!!! Bubs has swapped sides and is now laying on my right, I can feel her little bum poking up! Still getting those stupid pains. Not long to my midwife appointment which is on Wednesday, so hoping to find out how far engaged she is....I probably shook her out of position last night!!!! Poor little girl.
I get my fix today, dh's cousins wife is coming to introduce us to her new edition...the first boy of the Howell clan this generation. He was only 5lb10 when born just under 2 weeks ago and she had him in 3 hours.... I just want to see how Olivia will go with me holding a baby and if she'll try and poke his eyes out like she does with her dolls!!!!
Talking of dolls, I must go and quietly get her rag doll and soak it in bleach...she has the blackest face from being dragged everywhere. Even bleach doesnt get rid of most of it. Hope its not too cold for drying today!!! Otherwise I will have to stick her in the dryer and Olivia is mortified by that!!!!!
Ok enough of my rambling, I need to go make breakfast have a great day
Oh I'm having a yuk day! Kris, Mel and Kel did you find your 2nd pgs harder on your body than your first? I don't seem to be handling this one as well as I did with Ben
Today I'm puffy, I felt like I was going to be sick earlier, I was starving this morning and now my groin is really painful!!! I even asked a friend to go down to the loo (ladies' are on the next floor down) with me because I was feeling so light-headed at one stage. Geez, it was never this hard with Ben's pg!!! I'm only 21 months older surely it can't be age-related!!!!
Urgh, anyway, I can barely concentrate and BB went beserk on me when I tried to post last time and ended up opening 38 new internet windows for me, so I'm going to cut this short.
Sorry I have been mia, been a tough few days. We're all sick. Lily is on the mend, though is still having slight fevers (about 37.5 this morning). Poor Liam can't handle all of the saliva and snot his little body is making and is constantly choking and coughing. Lily is waking 4-5 times a night as well and I am buggered. I'm not sleeping well though. Last night I was so tired and went to bed at 8pm, but couldn't actually get to sleep til 10.30, then Liam was awake at 11, Lily at 12.30, Liam at 1.30, then we got a little sleep, then Lily 3am, 4am, DH up for work at 5am and Lily up for the day at 5.30. That's what the last week has been like. Needless to say I am buggered. And over emotional, have been feeling down, cranky pants, etc...though today has been a good day. I have been productive and feel good for it!
It's mine and DH's wedding anniversary today, 6yrs. 11yrs together last week. It so doesn't feel that long. We arent' doing anything special really, noone to babysit Though we went to dinner with the kids on the weekend. I guess that's the evolution of our relationship though.
We went up the coast the other day too to see my dad, on the spur of the moment, it was really nice, and yep, Jen, I thought of you a bit late notice to visit though.
Dis, yep, Liam's pg was tougher than Lils. I always put it down to being pg so closely together. My body never recovered properly...
Ok gotta go, LIl's awake. I hope everyone is well.
Did some shopping today and got a new tv...was going to order our couch and get a treadmill but ran out of time as my dad came over for a visit...Talk about retail therapy!!! So going to be super broke soon though - LOL!
Having a few pains tonight probably from all the walking today but no real sign bubs is going to make a move soon...happy to wait a bit longer though!
Boys are well - Dylans sleeping super well as is Louis other than waking up from the occassional bad dream so am definitely happy there that I'm managing a bit of extra sleep...
Mel - The belly dancing sounds like lots of fun! Sorry to hear about your pains though...hopefully it's just your body getting all ready! Oooh I wish I was cuddling a little newborn - will be interesting if you get any pains - I remember when Cindy had her little girl 8 days before I had dylan and when I would cuddle her I got super braxton hicks!! Must have been all the hormones in the air! How did Olivia go??
Disgirl - Sorry to hear your not feeling great...Ummm...second p/g wasn't too bad as I was still teaching dancing and everything but this one has taken its toll much more...I really think for me that it's because I'm way more unfit...each p/g I've had a bit more nausea though which is for no good reason though! Also, you'll be more tired etc cos you've got a little one to run after!
I had a period around the same stage as you when I felt like my body was going to fall apart...thankfully though I got past it and have felt quite good for the last couple of months! Hopefully the same happens with you!
Kel - Big hugs Kel...sorry to hear you're all so sick and not getting any sleep...Hope things settle down soon. Happy Anniversary! Thats fantastic! Bugger you can't go out...it does end up getting that way after having kids...you'll have to make up for when bubs is a bit bigger!
