    Hi All,

    Susan - Sooooo glad your boobies are ok!!!!
    Lori - Good luck with your scan. And a big high 5 for bfing this far.

    Miss Loren is getting better slowly. No temps for 24 hours now but she is still cranky and sleeps alot. My SIL has been a doll and taken Sara to playgroup for me today. OMG I had 4 nights of 2 hourly wake ups (actually 2 of those nights I did not sleep at all) and I have just been reminded of what is ahead of me in a few months...holly cR@p

    Of course the Vic fire news has taken up a lot of my thoughts. Alicia I hope your parents are ok.

    Buzzie - My scan is next Monday. Good luck with the house hunting hon.

    Jas - Happy belated Birthday.

    Tinsel - Goodluck with your scan...btw I think pink for you. I don't know why I just do. How is Monique going at d/c?

    Not much else happening here really, except I can't fit into my normal shorts anymore. I haven't felt much movement yet but I heard bub's heartbeat on Saturday.

    Oops almost forgot. Daycare called to tell that they are ready for Loren next week...I seriously was not expecting this for another couple of months. I actually don't know what to do. DH thinks I should just try her and see how she copes.

    I'm at home with Monique today. She has puffy red runny eyes and runny nose so thought I better not send her off to childcare. She wants lots of cuddles and is finally having a sleep.

    Bek - glad to hear Loren is getting better. I was just thinking about the broken sleep last night My family think its a pink bundle too and I don't mind either way but would be nice to have one of each as we are only planning two. Wow, daycare next week. How many days would you put her in for? I am still thinking of keeping Monique in childcare for maybe 2 days a week when bubs arrives at least for the first 6 weeks.

    Nic - what a nightmare with Olivia waking up every 20 mins.

    Buzzie - have fun at mothers group. I love seeing how much the babies have grown.

    Tinsel - I have booked her for 2 days per week. Initially I thought of putting her in for only one day but 2 are available and they say it is better to get them used to it etc. Personally I would not have coped when I had Loren if I did not put Sara in daycare for a couple of days per week. Sara was/is such a social soul that she would have gone crazy at home with me and Loren 24/7. Plus I was trying to bf (which i don't do very well) and I really needed some one on one time with Loren. Assuming that I am going to be the same way when this bub comes I kinda think that Loren needs to go to d/c too. So if you are like me and feel that you need some time out then I would keep Monique in d/c those couple of days. I really feel that d/c has benefited Sara long term. Socially she is brilliant and she has learnt so much. Initially though Sara did get quite sick and I had serious second thoughts about continuing with d/c but now I think we've made the right decision.

    Bekz - Not long until your ultrasound now!! I think you might be having another pink - what do you think any differences in the pregnancies. Cant wait to hear how it all goes.
    Tinsel - i found it easier having the boys in d/c a couple of days a week when ethan was born. Charlie is a social being as well although now that jack and alex are both at big school he didnt like going. Ethan is back at d/c as of tomorrow yay for me i get to sleep again!!
    aussienic - i know how you feel. Ethan is being terrible of a night as well. Even though he is lucky to sleep 2 hours all day. Is it hot where you are?
    Buzzie - Have fun at mothers group. I miss mine most of the kids started "big"school. Never to mind have to find a new one now
    mummy of many - Yep mine seem to have a knack for wanting something just as i get ready to post. They must know we are doing something important lol. Did your daughter enjoy her birthday?
    Well i have decided that i dont really like doctors. I am so sick of the weight issue. Doesnt matter what i do my weight stays the same or i gain weight, 20kg over a year. Thing is with the condition i have i am suppose to lose weight so the doctor is trying to figure out what is making me gain it when i should be sickly skinny. Who knows with the way the body works. Never to mind off to Aqua tomorrow to try it out went and got a new swimsuit and all.
    Have a great afternoon ladies

    hi everyone,

    well, it was my grandad's funeral this morning. And thankfully there were no dramas. I spoke to my mum not long ago (the service was in melb, but he was buried in ballarat) and she said everything went smoothly. But the coming days are going to be quite interesting. As the mother of my dads half sisters has put a crevatt or something on the house. Which means that if the house gets sold, she has put a claim in to get $130,000. Which is complete bs. So my dad and his brother and sisters are getting a lawyer.

    Sorry to banter but dp doesnt listen and im so sick of talking to a brick wall! The past few days ive been ignored and im feeling so lonely. I dont have many 'real' friends so again, apologies.

    Michelle don't for one second think you need to apologise to us. You can always pop in here to vent, brag, rant and rave. So glad there weren't any dramas at the funeral.
