MT - was that directed to me? cos you said MM are you starting a business - sorry I thought you were talking to her about her nappies!!!

Sorry - didn't know it was directed at me to answer!!!!

Must be the wine.. hehehe

[mountain mummy]

pmsl Mel!!

[MummyTummy]

ooh my bad - lack of sleep, I often find that people mix up MM and MT and then I go and do it myself with Mel and MM!

So.... here we go again

Mel/Arimeh/Gudism.... are you starting your own business????

[Arimeh]

Mel/Arimeh/Gudism.... are you starting your own business????

Just in case it wasn't clear enough by just saying Mel.. pmsl!!!!!!

Now - don't you know that if I tell the secret it won't be a secret anymore?

Maybe I've just gone insane like MM

[mountain mummy]

Maybe I've just gone insane like MM

<insert insane maniacal laugh here>

[MummyTummy]

I'll keep your secret!! So what is your new business going to entail?

Isn't it a prerequisite to be insane to be a mother?

[Arimeh]

I think its a prerequisite if you have more than one child to be classified as being insane

[MummyTummy]

Oh - I already feel it and I only have one!! Heaven help me when I have another one!

[Arimeh]

I think its more we are classed as insane because we go back for another one...lol

So what does that make me???

Oh and I think Master V is well and truly on his way o teething, cause now he mucks around alot when he feeds and he chomps down REALLY HARD on my nipple and **** it hurts!!! He's worse than all of the others put together!!!

MT - I have noticed people confused our acronyms too hahahaha

And I officially hate the festive season holidays now ... the people we have to talk to about our mortgage are out of the office until Jan 5th (and settlement is supposed to be the 15th )

BLAH!!!!

[MummyTummy]

MM - Jett has been doing that too the last couple of days. I put it down to my milk supply being down a bit, prolly due to all the stress and running around that comes with Christmas!! But maybe there are some toothy pegs trying to pop through..... hmmmm
Settlement just gets so complicated when things are slightly wrong!! We had problems with our bank not doing the valuation in time, and then their bank delayed something for them so we ended up having to settle 10 days later than originally planned. this doesn't happen to you!

Mel - I can't wait to go back for another one (just waiting for the mandatory 1 year passes before getting pregnant to pass!!) So yep, I think I am in that category too!

[squidipa]

sorry to hear about the chomping boobie babies,

yesterday i slept all day i went to bed at 10.30 at night and didnt get out of bed till the following day at 7pm evening i did tho settle joshie to sleep after hubbie fed him but thats it. I was buggered and ankle swollen its still swollen today didnt really go down all the way. dunno whats up with me. I gotta scoot josh needs me love to all.

[Arimeh]

Squidipa I think you should toddle off to the docs babe.

MT -a year huh? I got told it was 18 months between births after a c/section (and that was going for a VBAC) - so technically - you could try in 4 months time

[*Beema*]

Gosh you girls talking about getting UTD is making me all clucky!!! But I am not so sure about 2 under 2, might be too much for me LOL! But the older and bigger that N gets the more I miss my baby girl and I got her as a newborn a lot longer than you all did!! Also the high risk thing plays on my mind... need to be able to take the extra time off if needed, also not betting on a 9 month long pregnancy!! But I will be extremely jealous if you are all UTD again and I am not!!!

I am sending my sorries for the chopping boobies too, I have had my fair share but no teeth anytime soon here, Nakita finally grew big enough and learnt at about 5 months of age how to feed properly and make it pain free for me, I have to say it was a long and painful 5 months, but I am now thoroughly enjoying BF'ing and hope to continue for a lot longer yet!

Have a great break MT!! Would love to be go camping again....

I have no hope on catching up on the rest of personals so will leave it at that!!

Nighty Night!! xx

[MummyTummy]

Mel - I don't know about the 18 month thing.... I only got told not to get pregnant again for a year to allow everything to heal properly. Maybe that was to increase my chances of a VBAC cos my Ob knows how much I want one and my odds are on the low side?

Vic - I figure that if they are both under 2 at the same time it won't be so difficult going back to the NB stage. I was talking to someone who left a 5 yeah gap between her kids and now regrets it cos she says her daughter is just getting to a great age and she has to start again. I also don't want to leave ti too late incase I want more than 2!! You know, the tick-tock thing!! But I know what you mean about wanting it to be the right time.

Squidipa - I think you should see someone too before you burn yourself out with exhaustion. Poor thing!

[mountain mummy]

MT - I completely understand about the tick-tock thing! The age gaps between my kids are 3 years, 2 years and 2.3 years, but I would love at least another one before the end of next year! LOL! I've never had 2 under 2 or 3 under 3, but for me, the gaps have worked well so far

I have to say, I really admire all you ladies who have had c-sections wanting to get back on the horse (so to speak) so quickly! I honestly have no idea how it feels (all mine have been vaginal births) .... PLEASE don't think I am bragging, I think it's amazing what ALL OF US put our bodies through and at the end of the day, we do what is best for us and our babies! My apologies if I have offended anyone, I'm finding it difficult to eloquently convey what I am meaning

So Mel, are you gonna start TTC in April??

Squidipa - have you tried soaking (either your feet or your whole body) in a bath of Epsom Salts?? It may help a bit with the swelling ...

Vic - Master V has only just started the chomping, not only boobies but everything he can shove in his mouth!! Coupled with the drooling and red cheeks, I am assuming it's teeth ... having said that, it still may be a while before any cut through, but he is finding it amusing inflicting pain on his poor mummy ...

[Arimeh]

pmsl - no not april, maybe june

[Indadhanu]

HAPPY 6 MONTHS NAKITA!!!!!


Thats all for now LOL! bbl
