Babies Born January 2008 #8

Hi everyone,

Funny, you all wondering whether bubs is growing enough. I'm keeping my fingers crossed Sander isn't getting too big! He's growing like mad. At 3 months he was 62cm and 6820 gr....Thank God it had slowed down somewhat last time he was weighed. I guess it's a mothers second nature, to worry about her kid(s).

Hey Nik, not funny the thought of having diabetes. Hope everything works out for you!

Ah yep, bubs hair! Sander was bold on the top of his head for a while, with really long hair on the sides and in his neck. Thank goodness his "top"hair is back and the long hair is slowly replaced by new proper hair.

oohh it's getting busy here at work, so no rest for the wicked and I will have to come back later!
Have a great weekend everyone!

Hi Ladies,

I have been lurking here but mainly writing in the Feb thread seeing as my little girl decided to arrive in Feb. But all of my Jan belly buddies are here.
You know there is now a Jan 09 Belly buddy thread going. A little sad because that used to be ours!
Madelon- Amber at her 2 month check up was 61cm and just over 6000 grams. She is a big strong girl!
Maz- Your little boy looks like such a cheeky fella. A handsome one too. Its great that he is thriving along now. How are the other kids with him?
Nik- Hopefully your diabetes tests are all ok. Amy is a gorgeous little girl. She has great genes! i too would like my kids reasonably close together. But I dont think I will be over my birth for awhile so we will see.

Hello to everyone else in here.
Well my Amber has finally reached the 12 week mark. She was born so long after everyone else was having their kids. I was left all alone in our belly buddy thread for awhile!
She is going well. Being big she has been wearing 00 for some time now. Will probably be in 0's before we know it! I am still BF her and we are going well. She is smiling and is starting to laugh more and more. She is also holding onto her toys for longer and is taking a fascination for the pets.

A big hello to everyone. I still lurk but am slack with the typing.

Hey Yummie Mummies!

Ive just noticed that the newest belly buddies will be January 2009!!! It will be a year since we found out Joshy was coming on the 14th!!!!! My goodness the year has gone fast! We are flying out on that night. And planning on having a little wine to celebrate the year that has been.

HUGS to all.
Tascha and Joshy

Hi everyone,

Have been reading the email updates regularly but not managing to come and write a reply!
So good to hear everyone is going great.

Nik, Amy is going fabulous dont worry about anything. She is meeting all her own milestones, you dont need to compare her to anyone!

Maz, So wonderful to hear how great Matty is doing. I hope the new round of tests go well and the scans show continued improvement.

April, CONGRATULATIONS on getting married. The photos look fabulous, you look fabulous especially considering you just had a baby!!

Hi Madelon, Kate, Tascha, Jen and everyone else lurking!!

So our update is, we went to the paediatrician this week. Addy will continue on reflux medication till 6 months when we start solids, she is doing much better on that. She is 7.03kg and 65cm long so that is all good. SHe chats and gurgles and giggles constantly. Hasnt rolled yet. Still barely sleeps in the day (catnaps) but only wakes once in the night for a feed which I am happy with. We are still fully breastfed and unfortunately for me, she has decided not to have the bottle (EBM) when I am away for a couple of hours so I am in demand when I return to her.
I have managed to go to the movies once and two concerts without her which is a very weird but nice too evening!

But all in all we are going great!!

Till next time,
Hugs
Mary

HAPPY 1ST MOTHERS DAY EVERYONE!!!
Hope you all had a lovely day and got spoilt by your bub's. We went over my mum & dads for a family lunch then came home and lounged around. We got some professional pics from our wedding today. Will put some up in my BB gallery and facebook. My uncle did the photography and he did a great job.

Maz: No I don't think you'll be hearing about me getting a BFP for a long time! hehe I think we'll wait a couple more years yet. How about you?

Nik: That's great news about Amy's weight. I wouldn't worry about other people's bub's, i saw with my own eyes she is doing just great!

Hi Jen! Glad to hear you and Amber are well.

Mary: Awww thanks for the comment. I think the dress made me look slimming hehe. Bodie is 7.1kg so nearly the same as Addy!

Tascha: I can't believe the belly buddies thread are up to Jan 09. Brings back memories, around this time I was throwing up every morning! haha

Anyway's better get going and put some pics up.

Hugs to all!

April & Bodie xo
