Mez.. yep discomfort can be completely normal after needles.. even a little fever. Give her some panadol. The needle site might be hurting or she could just be feeling a bit off from the needles. Poor pet.
A month before me huh.... good on ya honey!!! You'll have the same age difference that I do between mine...... will you be going for a VBAC or another c-section? Woot!!
And yeah they can be unsettled - the rota drops might be making her belly feel a bit funny too - might be a velcro day!!
Tenny - anytime you're ready to do the swap honey, I'm there..lol
Hi to everyone else!!
Miss M slept through again last night - woke at 3 but was happy enough with the dummy... woohoo!! DH thinks its cos of the chiro - cos since I took her she has slept every night since... going to IKEA this weekend to get a bed for DS so she can have his cot. DH thinks we won't have a problem transferring him to the big bed - I'm not so sure myself!!!
Mez - did she get the rotovirus immunisation? The oral one? It is a dose of the live virus, so she'll be shedding live virus in her stools for two weeks after taking it. They said that it may cause tummy pains - like wind pains - for about a week.
As for the house - yes, that is stupidly expensive. That's what happens when people don't listen to their clients and go off trying to make something that they think would make it into one of those funky home magazines rather than what suits the tastes of the client. Then again, people in general tend not to listen or pay attention, why should I expect any more of the people who were speccing my house? It's not a problem - we'll just keep looking until we find someone else who can get it right FTR - the house is 360m2 and contains two large home offices - hubby and I both work from home. It also contains a massive internal court yard where the cats and kids can play with no fear of strangers, cars, etc - completely enclosed and inescapable. The main cost is in making it excessively green and completely solar passive. We don't want to have to heat or cool it, prefer to not use mains water, having black water recycling to keep the garden happy and any number of other measures - ALL of which cost!
SW - you could always go through DH's bosses to do the speccing.. they'd get it right
FORGOT TO MENTION ----
My mum is back today after 5 weeks overseas.. wooohooo!!!!! Can't WAIT to see her... I miss my mummy......
Mez - yeah thats our thinking too - I didn't want to wait until I had one out of nappies and sleeping through the night blah blah blah until having another one.. lump all the wee, poo and sleepless nights into one I say!!! LOL I have to wait until June though - more success for a VBA2C!!!!!
oh I see, I was told that I will be having another c-section so I really don't need to wait that long. If it happens sooner that's cool with me (DH might freak out) but hey I'm not getting any younger
SW - Yes she had the oral first, I will have to keep an eye out on her poos. She is just really grizzly when I go to put her down screams and fights it she hasn't done that before, I'm thinking she is understanding that it's sleep time and doesn't want too so fights me. Cheeky little monkey
Mel - that's cool you can be curious, I'm small and unable to give birth naturally which is why I have to have my next one a c-section. Oh and I have fibroids that are in the way of the birthing canal.
Kell - yep we probably are crazy for trying again so soon but I would rather get them both out of nappies and going to school in one hit
Tannis - oh how exciting your mum offering you the money, well when you do organise a time hun let us know and we can meet you where ever is convenient for you.
Belle - I hope that you get some rest soon hun. I also hope that everyone gets better soon.
Good afternoon lovelies. Well little Georgia is in bed snoozing and the house is clean thanks to DH's efforts over the weekend, so I have free time. yay. I'm gonna do a load of washing in a minute, but this is more fun.
Hi Tan - I'm glad everything is ok with your bubbas, but sorry that Chris is still annoying you so much. I just realised on your ticker that he is 32!! I don't know if he'll change much now. It would be great to see you if you are in Melbourne. I have never been to Northland. I think it is pretty far away from me, but we'll see what we can organise. Actually Doncaster has a brand new Village Cinemas opening too and it is supposed to be really high tech and good. so maybe a movie will be in order.
Mel - no offence but your MIL sounds like a biatch, thank goodness your mum is back to balance things out.
Mez - yeah the weather yesterday turned out great, I can't believe how awful it is today though. wet wet wet. we even got some hail before. I am not leaving the house today.
You reminded me when you said we should meet up with Tan, that it is probably time for the next Melbourne mummy's meet-up. we said once a month right? we'd be close to that by now wouldn't we... Feeb and Tasia are you ready for another meet. also regarding Izzy with her needles etc. when exactly did she have them done? the pedi that did Georgia's said that they shouldn't experience any side effects after 24 hours. It could be that she doesn't like being in the cot during the day cos you are far away from her if you are in your lounge room. or maybe she isn't tired out enough from the sleep before. we sort of do a feed play sleep routine, so since she isn't having that many feeds anymore, maybe you could add another one in during the day, even if it is only half a bottle, and then you could get in an extra playtime and an extra sleep. I find with Georgia that if we do a really intensive playtime for about 20 minutes to half an hour (including change table time with singing and maybe reading a story, some tummy time, and time playing on her back under the baby gym thing, that she starts yawning, and gets a bit grissly, and then she will go to sleep for between about 1 and a half to 2 and a half hours. repeat process.
Kellxx, the Geta thing sounds soooo cute. wow you might end up with a little rocker in your house. can he sing?? maybe your love of Bon Jovi is coming through.
Pixie - how was dinner at your IL's? I thought that in the last lot of photos you guys put up that Beth looked just like you. however when she was born I thought she was heaps like the Bear. so she obviously has a great mix of both of you.
Tenny - I can't believe that the bubs are nearly 3 months old either. where has the time gone??? and Christmas, gosh, I can't even picture it yet.
Hi Belle - that is great that Tara can fit into Julia's clothes. I am going to put mine all away in size labelled boxes for when we have our next one.
On the TTC comments. I don't know exactly when we will try again, but at the moment I feel like I could do it again now... but then again I have heard that it is pretty common for women to feel this way at around the 3 month mark. not sure why.
ok well this post is way way too long... sorry. BBL.
