Oh you must be busting to get over there. Where aboutsin Bali is DH from?

[blueflower]

OOOOOO Tracey- Have a great time, ENJOY IT, and good luck with the two little ones on the plane!!!

Thanks all for the info on expressing. I am getting about 50mls per 'expressment', and that is with me getting bored with expressing. I told Aaron that he had better enjoy feeding her, becasue its no fun getting the milk out!!! I have enough for a feed now, so what I will do is when he feeds her EBM, i will express that feed and save it for next time he feeds. I expressed this morning about 1.30am wehn aaron got home from work and Kaetlyn had last fed around 10.30 so there was plenty of milk there, and this morning there was ample supplies for her morning guzzle.

BTW Kaetlyn has turned into a power pooper!!! Everynappy I changed last night had amega poop in it. Not so fun when the nappy leaks either!!

I am having fun with the gown making.. It is so cute (but hard) as everything is mini sized- like little sleeves and bodices. aOh I hope it turnes out ok!!!

Well am about to go to morning tea with two of my cousins- one is PG and due in about 4 weeks. I might have to public breast feed- AAARRRRGGGHHHH still never done that as i have managed to avoid it or sit in the car and do it!! I have worked out that my issue is not with BB it is with people seeing my ugly hairy scarie stomach. If i cover that up i should be right.

Oh and tomorrow I am meeting the local BB members at a ZOo, should be fun!! Except for the feeding every two hour thing that Kaetlyn has a t the moment. Zofia if you are free you should come along to!!!

Hi everyone

Flolssie - great to hear from you and I am glad you are starting to feel better. Gee Olivia is so long. Sorry cant help you with the pulling down sensation. I hope you get some answers from your Dr and that it isnt anything serious.

Mel - how are you and the kids feeling? Wow at Jack weighing 6.5 kilograms - chubby bubbas are sooooo cute!! Why did the Dr change Jacks medication to Losec? Losec is what Jesse was on.

Tracey - have a wonderful time in Bali - sounds like you are all very excited and rightly so! I am jealous (in a good way)!!

Fran - sounds like things are going well and hopefully the 2am feed was a one off!!

Rebecca - yay for the 7 hour sleeps. I got the navy and berry hab - I really wanted a denim one but they were a one off I think and although the navy and berry doesnt go with everything I wear I still really like the colour. I am thinking I might get an ergo once Charlotte gets a bit bigger.

Blueflower - cant wait to see kaetlyns christening gown. You are very brave for taking on such a task!!

V - how are the wedding plans coming along. SOunds like you are doing some BIG walks - good on you. Have you been back to the gym yet?

ZOfia - I am glad Diana is OK - must have given you a fright. I agree with you that the cooing noises are just soooooo cute.

AMM - yay for Lucas doing a poop. Who knew we could get so excited over somthing so icky!!

Nicky - I hope Lachlan is sleeping and settling for you.

Well not much is new here just busy busy busy busy. DH is very busy with work at the moment so we havent seen too much of him lately. He still isnt home and goodness knows when he will turn up!! Makes for a very long day. Charlotte is just doing so well - luckily she is quite content to just sit and watch the chaos going on around her and she is sleeping like a dream. She went to sleep last night at 7pm and I tried to feed her at 9.30pm but she only managed 5 minutes so I put her back to bed and she slept until 5.50am and then didnt get up again until 7.30am. Thank goodness cause before she was born I was having visions of what we went through with Jesse which I know some of you are going through now so my heart goes out to you.

I went shopping today for some new clothes and I just dont know where to start. I have a wedding to go to in 2 weeks and my clothes are all still a bit tight hence the need to buy something new - which is a pain cause I know or at least I hope my new outfit wont fit me for long as I am planning on losing more weight. Anyway I didnt find a new outfit - a lot of the stuff is quite maternity looking but I did get a nice pair of black ballet flats with a cute bow on the top (like I needed them hehehe).

Anyway I had best run and go and sit on the couch for a while. I am addicted to vaalia youghurt at the moment so I am going to go and eat some right now.

take care
Jem

Zofia and anyone else in sydney the link is Member Meet-Ups Expert Seminars - BellyBelly Forums ~ Pregnancy, Birth & Baby for the forum. Its at fairfield city farm - even though our bubbas are a bit young LOL. Not sure where abouts you are though.

[Starfish]

Sara, thanks for the invite. I am in Redfern/Surry Hills and work in Kensington, so Fairfield is a bit far for me. Hope you guys have a good day though. It sounds like a lot of fun.

Hi to everyone else. Diana is asleep and I am writing my assignment. Really.

[Meluchja]

Jem, we have changed over to losec as Jack wouldn't swallow the zantac, so it wasn't working. So far he has had 2 doses and he threw them back no worries, so fingers crossed he gets better over the next day or two. He has been alot better lately though, but he is still in some pain, but hopefully not for long. We are all still sick. Jack seems to be getting a little less snotty, Charlize too, but my nose is running like a tap still. Charlee is still teething too, they are so close to breaking through it's not funny, hopefully will do soon, as she is not a happy chappy lately. Has Jesse's cream arrived yet? Charlize eczema is still not cleared, even with the steroid cream. What to do next? What else do you do? And wow at Charlottes sleep last night. Hopefully we won't be too far beind you.

Fran, fingers crossed you get good results on friday. I will be thinking of you and wishing you all the best.

Can't talk too long, my bed is calling.

Have a good night all.
