Oooh Gabysmum! Blue! What did you do? Call an ambulance or rush him to the hospital yourselves? Sick kids are so nerve racking! It's one of those things that doesn't necessarily get easier with more/older children... infact it gets worse because you learn more and more complications and things that can go wrong... like recently I had to give Wade Nurophen in the middle of the night and recently i learnt that it's really bad to take on an empty stomach but I knew no-way he was going to eat anything... still, I'm sure it's only really bad if it's done repeatedly. On a better note: yay! buying a new rocker! Sounds divine... I don't know how I managed without one with my DD. Regarding exercise: I weeded the garden the other day for a few hours on and off and the following day I was so sore! My butt and hamstring muscles especially! Felt like I'd done a workout! I guess it has been a long time since I've done that kinda thing especially during late pregnancy.... I love gardening: good for so many reasons
Ok... boys asleep... going to do a bit of reading before Niall's next feed...
Well here I was thinking I'd score tonight and Matt is watching a DVD (on Mum's since ours is cactus). Hah.. contraception??? Don't need it in my house 'cause my hubby's a tv/dvd addict! Was a miracle I got pregnant in the first place!
Bath: Lol at your weeding workout - from memory of your pics I think you're on the thin side and don't have to worry much.
Gabysmum: You musta been beside yourself about Alex. So glad he's okay!
Ceecee: Yeah I'm heading off to the gym tomorrow. I am lighter now than when I first fell preg (was heavy then due to medications) but I still need to lose about 10kg and of course that dreaded jelly belly! I'm lucky though that I can still fit into 2 pairs of old jeans oh and my maternity jeans from BigW lol!
Well today was uneventful and Aleise went to bed early. She's normally down by 9pm but tonight I think she was in bed about 7.30 or 8pm which means she'll wake earlier than 6.30 for her next bottle.
I was chatting to Jess via messenger earlier tonight and she's had some home issues so she hasn't been online lately. From what I can gather she's doing okay though.
MIL Called today about the baptism plans and catering. We bought sugared almonds for bonbonaire (It's a French thing, mum is French). Have to do a ring around tomorrow to confirm if some local invitees are attending, book in for a facial (got a voucher at my baby shower) and buy a new top! Oh boy am I glad she only gets baptised once!
Not much else to gobb on about - take care all and hope those bubbas have been sleeping better lately.
Nightie Night xoxo
Ali, are you finding that WW is hard to go back to after the relative "lack of restraint" of pregnancy? I didn't pig out during PG (well, not too much!) but the whole idea of going back and counting points again is soooo disheartening. I think it's almost enough to make me want to exercise for an hour a day instead! On the PixieFoto front - we had ours done and in one pic I looked like an absolute pogger! But dear DH "photoshopped" away my extra chin when he scanned the pics - what a sweetie
CeeCee, so glad the hammock is working - I can imagine what a relief it must be! And it is nice having mum around - my only fear is she won't be for long. Sheis really, really overweight and I constantly worry for her health. How long will your mum be visitng for?
IK, that sounds pretty cruisy - I'm glad its workin' for ya (as Dr Phil would say!) Attachment parenting appealed to me before Flynn was born, but we aren't following it I think (like I said, Flynn is not keen on the baby bjorn which I am a little sad about) but Flynn pretty well keeps whatever hours he likes, other than at night when I try to resettle him if he wakes up. Hang on, on reflection I suppose I do say "you're off to the isolation ward now" (ie: his cot in our room) when he gets cranky cause he just will not sit calmly in someones arms and nod off - so I guess that's probably the opposite of attachment parenting. He really seems to want to be alone or at least in a minimal-stimulation environment to sleep. Luckily for us, 9 times out of 10 he just nods off without much protesting once in his own bed.
Gabysmum that sounds awful!! Flynn is having his first vaccinations on Tuesday and I am not looking forward to what might be his first real bout of illness (the other day he was a bit phlegmy but a bit of FESS up the nose dislodged the biggest booger - TMI I know!
