Hey Soph, Nope I dont think I will be finding out gender, I think 1 last surprise but then part of me thinks last time so find out!??? I will decide when I get my scan!? Hope Boot camp isnt too bad!???

Brooke, I hope you manage to rest & Charli enjoys her time at MIL's... You poor bugger if it aint 1 thing its' another hey!!!!

JO... Phew 11 kids, that's a monsterous effort!!! Well done on surviving it!!!

Storm, how is Angel???

Maria, sounds like Louise is getting the hang of walking & will be running around in no time!!!

Cass, Yay welcome back & woo hoo on a great family holiday, Yay to Kaitlyn for walking too... They just change so quickly hey, maddy reckons Indah has grown heaps in the week she was away & the 2 of them last night rolling around on the floor Maddy was cracking up at Indah yelling at her. Mum bought Indah some little shoes with a squeaky heel, so last night when I got home from work she was holding Mum's hand walking & gigging with each squeak, she slept with the shoes last night & kept telling me to put her shoes in her nappy bag, she wouldnt let me put them on her but she wanted them to go with her to day care!!!

The carer has said yesterday she didnt carry Indah to change her nappy instead she just held her 1 hand & walked her to the change area, we are all trying to get her to walk.. She will stand in middle of the room for 15 mins but wont take a step, although she has a few times but oh well, I guess in her own time!?

I am starting to stress about what to do next year!? As I will start maternity leave at the end of JUne, I will have to come back to work in Jan, but I think I am better of throwing in all my responsibilities & going into the factory from 3:30 til Midnight, so I am home with the kids & DH can feed & bath them & get thgem in to bed...?
I just know that even if I do this job but starting later they make you feel guilty for not coming for Urgent things & even now they wanted me in at 6:30 on MOnday & I said I cant due to daycare, it was suggested there must be something I could do & I hate the pressure that the role forces me to have, so do you seriously think if you were a new Mum of a 6ish month old & knew you HAVE to work, do you think you could cope with working afternoons til midnight (It's only 5 mins max from our home) then sleep from say 1am by the time I am home & had a cup of chammomile tea til 7:30am get maddy ready for school etc & home napping & preparing dinner then leaving for work at 3pm? It'd mean NO childcare anymore...???

I am scared about missing DH, but we dont do anything during the weeknights or Friday nights!!! OOOH too hard... The other thing is alot of the work is going to Asia so next 5ish yrs the plant may close in office our redundancies are capped at 26wks pay.... No matter the years of service, but in factory it is per years of service & mine would transfer across so it woulde be more than 26wks!???

YIKES any thoughts??? Help me what would you do... It could be for 3 yrs & I can then change shifts maybe????

*coming from office to factory I'd be well looked after too??? oh I dont know
