Babies Born July 2007 #12

Sacha, she is such a cutie, and all that hair wow!! My 19 month old daughter has less, but she was baldy baby until until a few months ago lol!! She is such a sweety.
And I reckon if you feel up to it, your never to old to have a baby, well to a realistic point anyway, don't really agree with 50-60 year old women having babies, that's a little excessive in my books, but each to their own. You'll know when the time is right, I can't wait for one of you to fall pregnant again, I love, and I mean absolutely love all the excitement that comes along with pregnancy and babies, hence the doula training. But that is more for being there for support. Have you been discussing with DH about trying for another one yet?

Speaking of which, Jessikah if you are still reading here lately, I hope your feeling better hun, I think of you and your babies, and send you many hugs xxx

What is everyone up to tonight? V, how is the preps going for the ****tail party?

Hi all,

Well I got the swimmers and they were so cute, buy Livvie didn't like the water very much. We were at Emerald Lake and there were lots of kids in there splashing around and she cried. She was only in there for a about 10 mins with DH. She looked so cute in her rashy though hehehe

Its SO hot today - 43!!! Not looking forward to tonight, but having a casual one. Just going to a friends house and they have evap cooling but their house doesn't get much of the sun which is good. I am having a sober one - but V your ****tail party sounds like fun I want to see some photos when you get a chance

I am going to give Olivia some more food at 11. I will break up her bottle to see if that works a bit better so giver her bottle - food - bottle. I can't believe she is 6 months next Monday!!!

We are going to NZ in 2 1/2 weeks - I don't know what sort of things I need to take. Is there any special travel accessories that are good and worth buying?

Hi to everyone and a big HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

Jem - thanks for the info about Kimbaz's website. i did a search om her name and found the site - Beyond Belly - and got a swim nappy. Anyone else who wants one - get in quick. The suppliers have discontinued them so they are on special but limited sizes. Tom will be sporting a lime green one!

Flossie - you bring back memories for me! We used to swim at Emerald Lake when we were kids. i loved it - we practically spent all summer there. Dont worry - Liv will get used to the water soon. It is hot here today isnt it. 43degrees is just horrible.

Well we arent doing much tonight - just a bbq at a friends. Dont even know if i will make it to midnight . Tom woke up heaps last night - or rather kept crying out in his sleep. I think its the heat - or he is having nightmares about mummy feeding him more of those disgusting solids.. he really isnt impressed by them!

Sacha - i know - RatFace.. Its horrible, i just keep saying it. He doesnt even look like a rat..

Happy New Year everyone!! Hope you all have a great night!

Oh ta for the kind words guys
Mel, I think DH wouldn't mind me getting pregnant right now actually. I originally wanted to have at least 2.5yrs in between kids but it took two years, an operation, and a lot of awful tasting herbal formula to get Autumn happening and I am 35 this year (2008) I know it's not that old for having babies but the risks do go up. What if it takes a long time again? What if I can't handle having two really young ones close together on my own all the time? What if, what if, what if. I thought that at least I couldn't make a decision when I didn't have my periods back but like Veronica, mine have just put in a return appearance even though I'm still breastfeeding twice a night! So right now, I'm thinking I'll wait until she is at least one before TTC but who knows whether I'll stick to that! lol

How'd Olivia go with the feed Flossie? I'll be having a sober New Year's too. DH is away and the weather is so windy and rainy I don't think I'm into going to family or friends so I'll probably be snoring at midnight unless Autie has other plans.

Em - lol at Tom's dreams Have you tried just putting some food on the tray and letting him play in it? Or just coating the spoon and giving him that to explore?
