Hi everyone

Yesterday was my first full day at work WITHOUT taking Nakita Although I was a bit sad driving to work in the end I got a lot done and my MIL did jobs around the house She folded a couple of loads of washing that were on the line and put another load out for me, did the ironing and made our bed... and she had a lovely day with little miss N.. so in the end it was a good day and she is hoping to come down one day a fortnight - which is fab!

The wedding on Saturday went reasonably well, except for the part where the groom had half a bottle of vodka before and during his speech.... after that he went for a walk hehe. But it all turned out well in the end

Waterfall walk wasn't soo successful Complained that he was going to get sunburnt and that it was too hot, it was 29 and we went at 4pm so the sun wasn't very strong and a lot of the walk was shaded *SIGH* But as a suprise we dropped into a friends house who were back from Sydney for the weekend and we had drinks dinner and then didn't leave until 11pm which was very successful, so 1 outa 2 aint bad.

I am just trying wrapping N under the armpits at the moment to see how she goes, she has always been a doubled wrapped bub... so lets see if it works.

Beckoes, we go to two playgroups, premmie playgroup at the WCH (hospital where N was born) it is run by a physio and an OT (Occupational Therapist), they review the bubs development, give us extra hints tips etc, and are on the ball picking up any issues, we also get a lot of specialist coming in each week, dieticians, psychologists etc, we are also having session on CPR and chocking, and other really useful sessions. We meet weekely, during the term at the hosy, but during the holidays we are still meeting at each others houses or the botanical gardens.

Our other playgroup has come from our sessions with the CYHN "getting to know your baby" which we were booked it. We are in a group where Nakita is almost the oldest but shoud be the youngest... but it is a fantastic group and there are 8 or 9 mums and bubs, we meet each week at each others house, plus generally catch up with each other to go shopping, swimming or just chilling out.

Both of my groups are brilliant, and I find it really valuable to chat with mums who had had prems as they really understand what you have been through and we get extra info that you wouldn't normally get and my other group we are making some long term friends

Aurghhh it hit 42 here today, that is just too hot!!!

Yay, less than 8 min and N is asleep!!

Grr MM ooo she sounds :evil:

MT big :hugs: even though we chat everyday anway thought you needed another cyber hug!! I wish I had your LC... but then again N lost weight after a heap of crappy gains, so I just have to live with it that we had to take action.

Oh Pixie, I saw that too, poor Kel, hope she is doing okay....

Good luck Squidipa, their gains often drop off now, I am not expecting much from N anymore, but she might be still doing her little catch up!!

And news Mel.... please....

Huge hi to everyone else I can't go back any further!! Hope you and your bubs are all doing well!!

Oh tried on my Bridesmaid dress last night,... gorgeous!! Off to help with the Bon Bon tonight hehe!!

xxoo
