    Brendans dad lives with his mum atm... We have worked things out and are currently looking for a place to live! His dad is giving me extra money on top of the child support, which comes in very handy this month!! I have my car insurance due.

    I only opened Brendans bank account up last week, because he got 80 from his great Nana for his Birthday. lucky lil bugger!!

    Hi girls

    Jayne, I used to work in a lab a few years back, but am now a secretary. With no computer access or printer. Fant-blinking-tastic. Liebs is enjoying me being back at work, he has really taken to nursery/my friend and enjoys himself now with all the other toys and things, and has really come on developmentally, just little things like joining in with group clapping and not doing his own thing. But he's so much more confident with walking and not needing me around so much that I'm really pleased. I can sit and talk to friends while he wanders around and plays now!

    Sleep, well, none for me last night. DS got a molar through. He didn't want me touching inside his mouth, it was that sore. I do feel sorry for the poor mite, but not that sorry. My migraine is really bad today, I'm going to the doctor tomorrow. Luckily I can touch-type cos reading the screen is hard!

    Chocolate eggs. Yup, my mother says I'm cruel for not letting DS have chocolate, so bought him an egg. He can have it... in the breastmilk LOL. I'm so over her thinking me a bad mother for still breastfeeding and not giving DS chocolate and jam.

    Tashie, well done on the weight loss! You may not put on so much next time, you may have a nasty baby who won't let you eat chocolate (*cough* LIEBLING *cough*). I'm so proud of you for losing all that, it's amazing! As for TTC, period AGAIN today. 29 days. WTF? How do people cope with cycles this short? It's like I don't have a break! But that's good, we're not TTC yet and won't be for a few years. Poor Tobi, but lucky man that he got star treatment.

    Sally, great you have gotten things worked out! I'm so chuffed for you.

    Best go, I need to rest my eyes in both senses of the phrase.

    Love to you all

    Hi Girls,

    Well I have been a busy girl today cooked 2 quiches,a zuchini slice, cornflake kisses, choc chip muffins and made 3 salads!!! Erin is the last of our bubs I think to turn 1 so tomorrow is her big day. Just having some friends over for lunch and then family for dinner. I keep thinking this time last year I was in lobour.

    Pregnancy is goimg fine, told most of my friends now. I am 9 weeks now. Just booked in to get my 12 week scan in a couple of weeks.Life seems to be so hectic at the moment and I have hardly been on the net at all.Erin has taken a few steps but not walking as such yet.

    I finally have my boobs back yay!!!! Erin weaned with no problem at all, thanks for all your tips girls. She drinks cows milk really good now out of a straw cup, I think she would take about 150ml a day and also plenty of youghurt cheese and water. Guess I won't have my boobs back for 2 long!!

    RYN - Erin got a molar on the weekend and was really grizzly for a few days, then I saw the tooth!! She is back to her normal happy self now. Glad Liebs is enjoying nursery and staying with your friend.
    SALLY - Great news that you have worked things out with DP. Where do you think you will move to?
    JANE - Definently want to catch up soon, hopefully things will start slowing down soon!!! Got Erins Christening on the 30th March so that will be the last big evernt for a while.My Mum's bought Erin a new sleeping bag for easter which will be great for winter.
    KYM - Hi sweet hope all is well with you.

    Well dinner is nearly ready so better go and get organised. My Mum has bought Erin a gorgeous purple wooden table and chairs set so better get Hubby to put it together before tomorrow. I still can't beleive my baby girl is 1 tomorrow!!!

    Love to you all xxx

    Kristy, Happy Birthday Erin!! Hasn't the time just flown by?? I'm glad your pregnancy is going well. how exciting for you

    Rosehip, I dont think you are the only one restricting your child from chocolate!! I'm not letting Brendan have any. And even next year it'll be just 2-3 eggs in total. It's hard enough to keep them on a healthy diet (with all the crap for sale) without grandmas and grandads buying them lots of chocolate!!

    Brendan has been sleeping lots today... poor lil man, his cough is slowly going. I think I caught the cold before it got bad And I don't seem to be coming down with it.... woohoo!

    Talking about giving babies chocolate, DH gave Tobi some when he got home from work yesterday and it really cheered him up heaps for an hour or two. I couldn't believe the difference. Then he choked a little on some dinner, had a coughing fit and then went down hill again. We had more spew all over mummy and a very unhappy baby. Why do they always spew on the Mums and never on the Dads. He seems much better today, so I think the ab must have kicked in.
    We let Tobi try most things, but really limit how much naughty stuff he has. I would prefer he has chocolate over other naughty stuff. I am trying to work out all the no go foods, but it is so hard working it out.
    Jayne - Been doing research on the bunnies. They seem like hard work!
    Sally - Glad to hear that you are working things out with DP and it will be fabulous having someone else there all the time to help you out with Brendan.

    PS. Sally - 20kg is nothing. I have friends that put on 35kg when they were pregnant. I put on 17kg. I am glad I didn't put on too much, but I also wasn't going to stop eating all the yummy foods. I loved being pregnant and having the excuse to be curvy. I may be down to my pre-pregnancy weight now, but I am still 78kg and I want to lose another 15kg before DH gets home in August. It is hard while they are away though. Chocolate is such a good substitute for sex.

    Goodmorning

    Tashie, you must be really unlucky.... it's everyone else that cops most of the spew from Brendan!! Although his reflux is pretty much gone now!! last month he was shocking bringing up most of his feeds, including solids. But this month the odd dribble... so I wouldn't even call it spew! woohoo!!
    lol at your substitute!! mmm chocolate I think some days I'd rather chocolate!!
    I'm down to 78kg too, I want to get down to 70.... I was 65 but a little underweight so 70 would be nice

    Brendan and I are off to Playgroup this morning, well when he wakes! He slept through last night, I think his cold is going, and woke at 7:30am had a feed and went back to sleep at 8!!

    Have a great day ladies

    Hi, just in quickly, as have to get notes ready for tomorrow......

    Jayne, WTG on Claudia nearly forgetting boobie!

    Tash, Monkey is sick too - snotty, cough, and 1 slightly inflamed ear, GP wants to see us again Mon hoping to avoid a/b's. Maybe they both got the same thing at Lollipops?? (Monkey's kinda started Sunday with snotty nose then the throat and ear have come since Wed...) Hope Tobi is better real soon.

    Kristy, hope Erin's B'day was fantastic - my mum was going to get Monkey table and chairs for Christmas, but we don't really have the space - not sure what I'm gonna do this year when she actually starts to want that sort of thing!!

    Ryn, hope you get those migraines sorted girl! Sounds wonderful that Liebs is starting to become more independent - Monkey is too to some degree.

    Not sure if I've mentioned before but when I was pg I had quite bad pubic symphasis separation/dysfunction and its back, dammit! Luckily, the women's health physios at work have agreed to see me and had my first app't today - looks like its gonna be slow recovery and I'm quite sore tonight....

    But in better news, I dropped Monkey at the out-laws yest and went bra shopping!!! Sorry to say though that I needed to buy boring bras that could be worn under white work shirts, so the sexy stuff will have to wait....

    Gotta run, would love to stay to chat.... Oh, other big news - we are selling our house! The rate rises are killing us and we have no quality of life left... As it is our 3 yr plan to leave Sydney anyway, we figure we can rent, save money and be happier.... hopefully.... but a stressful time ahead sorting it all out!

    Have a lovely wkend all.
