Hi all!
Better news on this front too, today; we had a full night sleep! He didn't even wake up once! So I feel so much better today. Teeth are still not through, how long does that usually take? I can see a couple of white dots...
Sonya - Poor Z! I hope he will feel better soon! Could he have an ear infection? Good on you for having that talk with DH; get some 'me' time soon; will make you feel a whole lot better!
How are you today Prama?
Hi to everyone else!
sonya - quick one again! sorry, laptop at home acting up and hardly any time at work to post. getting stuff ready for a meeting now.

Seems to be fixed.
Sonya - how is Zane? Hopefully on the way to recovery? How are your eyes by the way; back to their normal colour?
Prama - Hope you get the chance to slow down a little soon!
We went to nephew's 4th birthday party and enjoyed ourselves. Jasper had a crawl on the trampoline with a little friend and loved it. I thought we might get a proper night sleep after all this stimulation, but it was really hot and muggy to start with only to cool down to quite cool around 2am, so had to get up twice to turn of fans and airconditioning. It is really nice and cool now, so might go for a walk this arvo. Still no teeth. Does any of you girls do baby sign language with bub? I got a book from the library and just tried a couple of signs. Jasper really likes it! The book is american, so I better double check whether they use the same signs as Australia.
That's it for us for now. Great to be able to see the posts again and catch up with you girls!
Have a good day!!
looks like bb is back to normal today. hope so..
esme thanks hun.. i think i need to take a sickie just so i can rest at home..
jasper's so cute! he's so smart! i did try sign language ages ago but poopy didnt seem to take to it. i should try it again. american sign language is different from us. they use just one hand. you can google the australian one - auslan and they have a video that shows different signs.
sonya - love your poem in your sig
yes, how are your eyes? how are you and z getting on these days?
means the world to me.
poopy's still sick, poor darling, it's been a mth. went to his gp yest, no anti-biotics again, of cos he's just had it last week. could be a combo of his needles and day care germs and all. maybe girl germs too. his "girlfriend" zara comforts him by holding his hand and this morning he was a bit whingy cos he was still sleepy and saw his carer getting his breakfast. she reached out and touched his shoulder as if to say it's ok! LOL. so cute!!
his carer also said that she can see his personality traits - independant, dominant and intelligent. he also seems to be the 'ringleader' lol..
anyone trying for #2.. we prob will at the end of the year, early next year. hope to have a bub end of next year...
back to the grinding stone!

Thanks Prama - Just looking at the Auslan site, but dial up internet connection is too slow for video's :(. Poor poopy! At least his immune system will be very good by the end of the year. My FIL call DP's niece and nephew 'petri dishes on legs' as they pick up every possible illness at daycare as well! Soooo cute that he has a little friend who looks after him though... Lol on Poopy being the ringleader! Jasper sounds very similar; whenever he plays with kids his age he doesn't hesitate to go over and 'play', but the other bubs see him coming and hide behind their mums :(, not that he is rough, but he just wants to play. Lol, yesterday he had a little play with a bub his age that had a similar approach; so much so that they bumped heads crawling towards each other!
We will be trying for no. 2 around that time too. Aiming for a 2.5 to 3 year age gap. Would be nice if we could go through the whole ttc/pregnancy journey together!
petri dish! lol.. that;s so cute!
yes, jasper and poopy sound similar, both not shy, huh! wonder what they'll do if they got together!
oh yes, definitely! would be great to be on the TTC thread together, hehe good thing it's 1-6mth TTC. yup, we;re also aiming for 2.5 to 3 yr gap. hoping for an october baby so not too close to xmas or too close to poopy's birthday. and not too cold eitehr!
my friend just had a baby girl on the 23rd of feb. her older son just turned 2 on the 22nd of feb! talk about timing!!
Lol, bump heads!!:
Lol on having two birthdays 1 day apart! Could happen to us too; we were trying for an October bub, but didn't happen till Feb... So we will see what happens this time around.
Hi Girls,
Yes BB is back...YAY!!!
Well Z and I are BBF again I don't know what happened last week, just was a nighmare one I'm not hoping to repeat anytime soon. Yes my face is back to normal again, and no more incidents since so thats good.
I think we will try for a bub same time that would be awesome if we all did it around the same time LOL Friends through pregnacy aswell....hey if we can get through toddlers together we might be each others saving graces!! I don't know if anyone read my birth debrief but I'm actually petrified to have another baby. For me I'll be trying for a VBAC things didn't work out for me the first time:crying: and in some ways I'm still struggling so it's going to be a bit of a challenge for me to actually go ahead and try and fall pregnant.
Anyhow we are still toothless well not totally but the molars are still a no show.
Argh Z awake BBL
xoxoxo
Hi lovelies,
I have no kids at my house ATM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOHOOOOO!! My MIL looking after them until Dinner time so I can have a break GOD BLESS HER!!!!!!!!!!
Sonya -- I have PND and am still on my meds also. I have had it post all bubs but have been better this time as I got onto it earl;y. For me overtiredness was the biggest killer and I am so lucky to have 2 lots of parents in town and helping. That said I do still have my Oh my god moments, and want to trade them all in for quiet well behaved children but how boring would that be. You absolutely need some time for you and DO NOT FEEL GUILTY. Having some you time makes you a better Mummy for Z!!!!
Prama -- Y ou are so Fabulous and yes we all are. Can't wait to be a cyber Aunty when you girls TTC #2 :dance: Life is so hectic I certainly would have a mental health day every now and then. Poor poopy, they do seem to pick up everything and constantly have runny noses. Snail trails on clothes are just so becoming he he
Esme -- Petri dishes on legs he he rofl
Well must go and do some shopping and I suppose some housework. I am reading Twilight by Stephanie Meyer I feel like a teenager again he he can't put it down.
It is only 13 degrees here bbbbrrrr where did summer go?

Hi guys!
Sorry I haven't been on in so long - been staying with the inlaws and things have been very busy, plus it is hard to get online here! I think I am suffering from withdrawal...
Sorry to hear somme of you have been having a hard time with your little rascals. Sonya, I am glad to hear Z is happier now and that DH is giving you some time out. You really need that - I remember having a similar discussion with DH earlier on and now we seem to have a better balance going. Esme, I hope Jasper pops those teeth through soon!
esme & prama - sounds like you guys have some little social butterflies on your hands! DD is the opposite - she sticks by my side if we are out with other kids and screams if she can't see me. I am starting to worry that maybe I need to start leaving her on her own more often to develop more social skillls. I think maybe she is getting too used to having me around all the time.
sue - woo hoo on having a day to yourself! Enjoy. I keep hearing about the twilight books and how addictive they are; I am yet to read one yet though.
Sounds like maybe a few of us will be trying for the next one around the same time. I am thinking of TTC again maybe in Aug? Will see how I feel then. I would ideally like a 2.5 to 3 yr age gap too, if only you could plan things that well. After the m/cs I went through the first time, I will just be happy to have a healthy baby anytime, preferably without going through more losses. I guess we will just have to wait and see what happens.
prama - I hope Poopy gets better soon!
Gotta go, DH is bugging me to hurry up. I will try to get online again in the next few days if I can. BTW, Catherine's party went really well, she had heaps of fun and the cake turned out well. I will put pics on FB when we get home. We are celebrating my 30th this Friday night too!
Jasper did his first steps without holding onto something today!! Ah well, only about four in between the coffee table and me, but still... (proud mummy moment ;)).
Sonya - Get another ob and maybe get an appointment before falling pg with #2 (if possible) so he/she can put your mind at ease. I am not looking forward to giving birth again either, I too had a less than ideal labour because of a panicking midwife who wasn't there for us at all ,followed by a vac assisted delivery. But with #2 we will be a lot more educated and know what we want, so we can stand up for ourselves!
Sue - Great to hear you had a childless day, and that you made the most of it! Yeah, what are those twilight books about; I keep hearing about them too? It is a bit a shock to the system this cooler weather, isn't it?
Bun - Good to hear Catherine's party went well. Enjoy your party; you only turn 30 once!!!
Prama - Planned your sicky yet ;)?
Hi to everyone else!
HURRAYYY JASPER!!!! YOU'RE SUCH A SMART BOY!!!
i didnt have the best birth either.. poopy was 2 weeks early, had a midwife who was a cow, bf problems etc.. my PND story's in the depression and anxiety thread.
like esme, i know at least w #2, i will know what to expect, well, im sure the experienc wont be exactly the same but at least im a whole more experienced and aware of what's coming, and can stand up for rights..
sicky lol one thurs at the end of the mth..
i put up a new thread
