Blip: Aww about Darren having his needle . I'm glad he was so brave . Those footprint things sound good - I'd like to do something like that sometimes soon, before Oliver gets too big!
Antheia: It's so awful watching our bubs get needles, isn't it! I hated it (I almost cried when Oliver got his). How is his cold going? I hope he's feeling okay.\
AFM: Something strange is going on with my milk supply... my right boob has gone into overdrive making milk! I've been soaking through nursing pads really quickly, the milk just pours out, and poor Oliver can't keep up with it! I don't know how it managed to happen... weird. I hope it settles back down again soon.
I'm glad Orson is okay. I'm really not looking forward to Oliver's first cold.
I think my right side has always been a little more plentiful with milk, but it's ridiculous at the moment. I think my right side often feels fuller, so I've tended to offer that side first which has probably promoted the oversupply. I posted in the b/f area and got a few good suggestions for trying to even things up a bit.
Antheia - im glad to hear orson is getting better. that fess stuff is great!!!
sterla - you milk machine!!!! lol no im not really sure what is going on? i would post and ask barb glare - she is fantastic! BTW Oliver has the cheekiest smile!! so cute
baby_blip - argh i hate needles, i gotta take bella for hers tomorrow!! woohoo on going to MG!! those footprints sound like a great idea!
moose - honestly i havnt taken a photo of bella in about a month!! i know that sounds bad but i have thousands of photos of logan i just forget to take them now!!! maybe i should get on top of that
I'm on messenger Antheia. I think there's a little symbol below my post count you (or anyone) can click on that has my details. Otherwise I can PM you.
Nice to hear from you Laura .
Oliver is being cheeky tonight. He was sleepy earlier on, but now is wide awake and in the mood to work his neck muscles. He can pretty well hold his head up now, and he looks so darn pleased with himself when he does it! So cute, cheeky boy!
moring ladies!
anthiea - i have MSN i just added you . i got darren jabbed because my lovely DH checked for the imunisation allowace then last night when daz was a little funny asked "OMG can that change his peronality or make him forget me?" ... can you tell my DH works too much :P im glad to hear orson is feeling better. i've used that fess stuff with darren it drys out the nose and makes it snot go down better or something!
Sterla - the only idea i have about the over supply is to express some off and then freeze it? never know when it'll come in handy (i had half a lt in my freezer afer SCN...came in real handy!) glad to see Oli's holding his head up! its one of those "aww" moments. if you have a video camra put it inline with his face and just let it record. we got some cute footage that way!
AFM: daz was good last night. he was a little unsettled, but nothing magor. all though he did comfort suck on a bottle (thank gawd it was formular!) and about 20mins later....it ended up all over him and left a cat rather about it...the cat got away clean though eheh. thismoring he's been pritty good to. im hopeing hes not getting ready to be a bugger at my mum and dads place tonight. i better head off and have a shower...becuase its dads birthday and i need to get him something!
hope every one is having a good day!
Blip: Yeah, I think I will start expressing and freezing some of this 'excess' milk I have. I've been intending to for some time (just in case), but never quite got around to it. It will certainly come in handy for when I'm finally ready to let my parents look after Oliver for an evening (they keep asking!) I'm glad Darren had a good night. Lol about him scaring the cat! How have your cats adjusted to Darren? Both our cats are pretty scared of Oliver. They've had a quick sniff here and there, but get freaked out as soon as Oliver makes any noise! Sometimes they're okay. A few times I've ended up with Milo (the younger cat) trying to sit on me while I'm feeding Oliver. Kind of cute .
Antheia: I've been trying to get on MSN to add you, but it won't let me sign in today for some reason. I'll keep trying. It will certainly be handy to be able to communicate with all you ladies when BB is down.
Oliver is sleeping really well today (he usually doesn't during the day), so I have all this spare time. I should be doing the dishes now, but really can't be stuffed. I think it's the weather... it's so dark and overcast and windy, I just feel like watching telly and surfing the net .
Hi Girls! I have only just found this friend and am hoping i can join in!
My name is Michelle im 23 and have a 10 weeks old daughter named Anastasia who was born on 01.02.2009.
Im hoping to meet others mums with bubs around the same age! It gets quite boring talking to myself
Ok im not doing personals ATM im going out for lunch soon.
i have had the WORST 2 days so far this year...
Wednesday i found out that my cousins dad passed away from a heart attack. He was supposed to be having a bypass soon and yesterday he had an appointment to get die put through (i think that is to see blockages??) anyway he postponed the app until monday because he didnt want to upset his daughter as it was her mum's (his ex wife) birthday yesterday also and they were going out for lunch. He died roughly around lunch time. all i can think of is that if he had of gone to his app he would still be here!! instaed we are having his funeral on monday
AS FOR YESTERDAY...It all started when i had to go to the doctors at 3pm, i had to get bellas bum checked out (as some of you might remember from an earlier post) and the doctor said "ok yep she does have spina biffida, i cant feel the bottom of her spine and there is a gap where there shouldnt be a gap!!"
My heart dropped into my stomach, i felt soo sick and all i wanted to do was cry. He asked me if i had been taking folic acid throughout the pregnancy (well actually he was trying to imply that i hadnt taken it) and i said yes i took it religiously as well as iron tablets.
He showed me all these different diagrams and printed me out some information on spina biffida- he also said you need to see a paed right away and we also need to get some X-rays done.
Before i went to the paed i had to get bellas needles she was a little trooper though she only squealed a tiny bit when the needles actually went in...
Ok so i ended up at the paed's at about 4:10pm and sat in the waiting room until 4:45 and then i finally got called in, he checked everything out and said "nope she is completely fine"
WHAT THE HELL
MKART- hello!!! and welcome!!!!
you will love it here, all these beautiful girls are very supportive
I will have to add you to our belly buddies list!!
what time was anastasia born? and what was her birth weight?
Sterla - with our cats they've been really good with darren, ive had both cats at one point or another on my knee while feeding him (our male did it SOME how as he's HUGE!) but they're good with him like if he's on the floor they sit at the edge of the matt he's on and watch him and some times walk over and sniff him. when i've had an early morning feed they come and sleep on the bed some times and if they do its like right under darrens bum!
Mkart: Welcome! hope you enjoy this lovely group!
rainbow: sorry to hear about the death of your cousins dad. sometimes things happen as they should and who knows, maybe his soul had desided it was time KWIM? and thats SHOCKING about your GP saying Bella had spina biffida when she didnt! i'd be livid. at least you know she's ok, i hope the pead you saw talks to the GP and tells him not to feak mums out!
AFM: went shopping is darren yesterday and he slept for most of the time...then when he did wake up he didnt crack it and want out of the bassent and i got to eat lol then after i changed and fed him he didint want togo in the bassent so out came the sling!
we got home and had a good feed and sleep. but by the time daz was sound alseep we had to go to my mum and dads. thank-fully daz slept in the car and for about an hour after we got there too. my nan was there (so darrens Grate Granma) and she got a cuddle which was nice! the only down side to going there was i said i was going to look into swimming lessons for darren (my mum and dad have a pool thats fenced off...but i'd rather not take a chance) and all i got from both mum and dad was "wait untill summer...after all he's been though" which i said "it may be good for him as he's a very, very tence baby. i want him to relax a little and it's also a good idea becuase i dont want to chance him getting into your pool and not know how to swim!" which my mother mutterd "he wouldnt be able to get in" but Chris said to look into it and talk to the physio about it and see what they think. If it helps then we'll do it.
now i better go and put some washing on and {insert singing voice here} 'express myself'
hope every one is having a good day!
ello Ladies!!! Far out I leave for 2 days and so much happens!!! I actually decided to be strict with myself and do my washing and vacume instead of sitting online all day... okI mean BB all day
Antheia-how are your little ones? Are they feeling better? That is exciting Orson is almost rolling!They are developing so quick! Thats a nice idea about your tattoo... how many kids do you think you'll end up having? My mum got our names in an armband tattoo like 10 years ago(I have 3 younger brothers) its nice and she'll never get sick of it because its sentimental. Also I am on messenger so you can add me if you like, and the rest of you ladies feel free to add me too! My email is jordy_erased@hotmail.com
Moose- How was your mothers group? I would love to join a MG but I think i've said in a previous post I dont have my licence(currently getting lessons) so I find it hard to get around sometimes...thats a great idea about having a doctor chat to Mum's... did you learn much? Do you take Sam on your walks? 3000 photo's is impressive, im crazy with the camera as well, I have a trillion of the same pose, Winter is so photogenic though, I cant wait to put some photo's up to show you girls. I got some beautiful shots of her and DP last weekend. Thank you for the tip about copying your reply! Im currently typing in notepad
without a worry, bliss!
Sterla- How was your antenatal reunion? Hope your milk boobie isnt giving you too much trouble... how amazing is lactating really? Im pretty obsessed with my breasts atm to be honest ive never had cleavage before now, i could get used to it lol
Baby_Blip- Good to hear little Darren was well behaved for you at your folks, oh thats really nice his great grandma got a cuddle, im sure she was stoked. Argh sometime parents just have no idea though, like for crying out loud! Even if he couldnt get in to the pool area surely there is no problem with prevention and giving little daz new skills? How do you find your mothers group? Thats nice about one of your old teachers visiting you, its fun to show off
the little one's sometimes.... ok all the time
Rainbow- OH MY GOD!!!!! What a ****head of a doctor!!!!!! Oh you poor thing!!! What the hell???!!! I dont know what to say except thank goodness Bella is ok... Im really sorry to hear about your cousins Dad too(your uncle?) argh, what a week! Maybe a sneaky glass of wine is in order?
I cant believe you havnt taken photo's in a month!!! Naughty Mummy
Greetings Michelle!!!! How is little Anastasia? And yourself?
My goodness its literally taken me an hour almost to type this, mostly one handed feeding the Turd!She is almost asleep but just wont drop off!! So our few days have been good, yesterday we caught the train into the city to see a good friend,the train was PACKED and of course the only person who offered their seat was another mum with a pram!! It was a good trip, I didnt have to get my boob out on the crowded train so that was a highlight. Today we went to the doctors cos behind Winter's ears have been a bit funky,turns out she has a sweat rash so we got some ointment to clear it up but we waited for over an hour!
Hope everyone is having a good friday night,yay its the weekend!!
