    Hi All, we are well...Poor Tasha, we are the opposite at the moment....im not sure what is going on BUT Grace, Eve and Thomas are giving me what i call good nights. Eve is giving me atleast 5hrs and settling back in her bed...Grace is good and Thomas is going 9hrs at night.....Ahhhhh so last night i was only woken 4 times, between three kids i am thinking that thats not too bad (see - if you set your hopes low you always are happy )

    Hi ladies,

    Sorry for not getting in earlier to update you. I tried on wednesday but couldnt get on the forum. Since then i havent been online until like 10 mins ago.

    C is at home now They let us go home late on wednesday, so that was a nice surprise to get to the hospital and hear. And THEN,,,,,, I got sick Yesterday i couldnt move.

    Not really sure what it all was. They are thinking most likely a uti. She also tested positive for the flu, but they said thats not what made her sick, it was an infection of some sort, because of how she responded to the ab.

    She is now on 10 days of oral ab and in 6 mths has to have a kidney scan, where they inject dye into her and watch it filter through. This has freaked me out a bit because i have kidney problems and have had that test done several times. I SO hope she hasnt got anything genetic from me, because my kidney problem is genetic.

    Ive had a few meltdowns over the last few days but thats to be expected i guess.

    C is getting happier and perkier by the day, its so nice to have my little girl back again

    Thanks for keeping her in your thoughts, it means alot.

    I hope you are all well

    Lea sorry to hear about Nix, glad all came back clear & hope the vomitting stops!

    Kristi So happy C is home Dont beat yourself up about passing things on genetically, you have no control over that. I think you're a great mum & I know you do anything for your kids!

    Me I am at my sisters house for the weekend. I went to Newcastle today to see one of my BB friends who was in my TTC buddies & is now 36 weeks pregnant. It was lovely to see her glowing & so close to having her much awaited bubs in her arms!
    It's my nephews 8th birthday party tomorrow which we're all looking forward to, then home again.
    My throat is sooooo sore, I must have caught something again which really annoys me Got hardly any sleep last night due to my sisters dog keeping me awake then DD came in to our bed (blow up mattress LOL) in the middle of the night as she was scared in her cousins bed. Then DH snoring etc. DS slept 11 hours so if everyone else had of let me sleep I would have had a great nights sleep!!!
    Oh I almost forgot, 2 nights ago I was up all night (once again not due to DS) with pains in my chest & left arm. I ended up calling the hospital as I was having probs breathing & they told me to take some nurofen which after about an hour helped... until DS woke about an hour after that! I had pins & needles in my left arm & hand for 2 days but seems to have gone now thank goodness as it was getting me a little worried. Hopefully thats the last time that happens as I was in tears (& alot of pain! )

    Well I'm off to bed now, hopefully sleep better than last night *yawn*

    Looking forward to sleeping in my own bed again....

    I hope everyone else is well

    Had friends over today and when they left the house looked like i was zone...so after a day sleep i cleaned, and i mean clean. I cleaned like there was no tomorrow. It was the clean i have wanted to do for ages but have either been pregnant or tired. Thomas was either happy to be awake or asleep and i said to the girls that if they helped me there would be a treat. I had put away a set of princess crown, high heels, and jewelery so i know i could pull that out.Well now i have the bookshelf sorted (please tell me i am not the only one whos kids make a mess of all those books), have been all through their toys and have two boxes for vinnies and about 4 bags of rubbish. I moved lounges and cleaned the deck. I just cant wait for DH to see it all on wednesday! Well that is if it stays clean. So now its 7pm and the girls are happily dancing and Thomas has just woken for a feed. I get computer time and it has just all worked. So nice that it happens this way sometimes Maybe i should go that 4th Bubba.....or stop while im ahead! I love my little family

    Hope everyone is well!

    Lea: Nixon??

    Kristi: C??

    Kell: Lil?

    Danielle: Yourself??

    JJJ: Mine have all been water babies, its so lovely when they are!

    Tasha: Its always the way, when things are bad you know that it wont last forever, BUT also when things are good you know something will change sooner or later. Hope it doesnt last too long!

    Visitors visitors visitors this week which is so nice now that i have the energy to make friends after the move

    morning ladies

    lea, hope nix is feeling better must have been a stressful time for you.

    kristi, it must be fantastic having your little girl home again.

    milly, well done on the big clean im hoping for some motorvation to start my house work today, dh did it all why i was pregnant and when lucy was new born so i think i may have forgotten how

    jjj, it always happens like that appliences like to go out in sympaty for each other hows the wedding planning going?

    danielle, don't you just love your own bed after being away, sounds like you had a great time but hope your feeling better.

    ive just realised that lucy is a little home body if we go out it messes her up and she doesnt sleep well that night but if we stay home she sleeps great
    she is such a happy beautiful baby with her big blue eyes and cheeky smile even when she does keep me awake all night she is still my little princess

    Hi all,

    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!

    Kristi, I hope chantelle is well and thet you are feeling ok too

    Danielle, EEEK @ those pains, I hope they haven't returned. If they do I'd be going to the Dr., if not the hospital!

    jjj, They're so cute in the water aren't they, Liam loves the water too, which is good cause Lily hated it at this age, she'd scream the house down at bath time!

    Milly, lol @ your house being a mes after visitors, mines a pigsty before I even get visitors, hehe!! BUt it is tidy today, I have managed to get out of my funk and clean the place a bit!

    Tasha, the love for your first bub can be kind of a surprise huh? It used to amaze me that such a little person could make me love her so much. Now I just do it, LOL!

    Anyway going to make so lunch before the munchkins wake up...I hope everyone is well.
