    Nope! and still can't find the darn thing anywhere!! We did have a worry on the weekend as we had to take DD#1 to hospital with severe gut pain and vomiting ..... just looks like it was a bug, maybe gastro? but it was only top end......

    so MumofLewis, the mystery deepens......


    P.S. Celsie.....it looks like it may be safe to come play after all

    Oh Charly that would be driving me batty not knowing where that piece is. I bet one of the girls stashed it somewhere "safe". Caeleb's always hiding his spoons and forks in his secret hiding spot down the side of his high chair.

    I've just averted a Christmas disaster. Tate has been busy (working like a dog more like it!) getting the area ready for the play equipment for Caeleb's Christmas present. He's cleared the area, had 8 X 1 metre holes dug, filled them up with concrete and a 3 metre wooden poles, painted them and is about to put the shade sails on them this weekend. He's also putting up the swing set that I'd put on lay-by in July. Tate picked it up a few weeks ago. I hadn't even looked at it. I assumed all was okay. WRONG! It was the wrong one! They'd put the wrong one on lay-by for me. So, I took it back. No worries, got my money back. Problem is, no-one has any swings sets left!!! Argh!!! Luckily though, I called Hills and they had them. So, I have a courier on his way to get it for me. Saves me a few hours of driving and Caeleb will get his swing set for Christmas as planned. Phew!!!

    My bump has finally made an appearance. I don't look like I've been eating too much pizza anymore! LOL And I can eat again which is nice.

    This baby is so different to Caeleb. Caeleb was a little fire cracker from the 1st time I felt him move till... well, he still is. Never sits still for a minute. Always has ants in his pants. This one doesn't seem to kick anywhere near as much. Maybe I'm just too busy to notice...

    Tina - I have to asked... how are your bits?!? ROFL - Mine are all swollen are sore ALREADY! I swear this didn't happen till much later the first time around. They never looked the same after having Caeleb... so I can only imagine what I'm going to see after this one is going to be born *shudders*.

    Okay, now I've grossed you all out... I'll go! LOL

    Hi all

    Celsie - we all have some terrible mummy moments. Gosh, i am guilty of many. Thankfully, they are getting less these days, but, i have thrown some wobblies in my time, and spent days after blaming myself, and so hard on myself for the way i had reacted. I guess its all normal.
    That play area that Tate is building sounds great thou.. I am sure it will be all worth the long days and hard work. I am glad you found the right swing set. What a pain.

    Not much happening here. Aiden having a lovely day sleep at the moment. Has had a few rough ones this week, its so nice for him to actually be having a good sleep. He should sleep well tonight then.

    Still not looking preg.. except for my bb's! I have put on about 5 or 6 kgs so far, (trying to be good this time around, after putting on 18kg with Aiden) and, I reckon most of that weight is in my bb's. And my butt.... Oh well, its all for a good cause, but, it would be nice to have a bump, and to actually look pregnant.

    I guess all the kids are the same atm.. but, isnt it amazing how they can go from being little 'adults' almost, seeming mature, placid etc, easy going, and being like that for days, lulling you into a false sense of security.. that.. wow, you are in control, things are going great.. and then.. for no apparent reason.. BANG! suddenly this screaming tantraum throwing child is grizzling at your feet. We have had some wonderfull weeks, but, the last few days seem to have gone backwards.. hopefully, so far, today has been great. We had a meetup at a very child friendly park near the city, and it was lovely to be able to relax and chat to the other mums, knowing that the fences where keeping the little ones in. It was small area, and Aiden played happy as, not needing me at all, and it was great to see that independance develope.

    Well, Charly, hope you find your puzzle peice..... it will show up, it always does, just a matter of timing really, most likely when you are looking for something else..

    Hope you are all well,

    xx

    Debbie - Can't agree more, it's so nice going to a park that is fenced in. There are plenty near me that aren't and I spend all the time chasing him around.
    So do you find if Aiden sleeps well in the day he sleeps well at night too? I've often wonderd that myself.

    Lewis is starting to say a few more things like 'what's that' and what's this' to everything. He also says 'key' when we are ready to go out (which is a good reminder to me!) And when you ask him where's his nose, eyes etc he will point, although often to the wrong place. Yesterday I asked him where's your Thomas book and he pointed to his face

    I have been temping this month so am unofficially in the 2ww. I say unofficially because my temps aren't that accurate because Lewis wakes up at different times each day. Anyway Christmas day would be day 28 so watch this space.....

    Ooooh Celsie forgot all about the lovely side effects of being preggers.

    Sarah, def, if Aiden has a good day sleep, he sleeps wonderfully over night. Yesterday, after the park, he slept for 3 hours solid. I did give him a dream feed about 30min in, as, i knew he hadnt had anything substancial to eat, and i didnt want him waking up grumpy and hungry after only an hour.
    Last night, other then waking just before midnight cause he couldnt find his dummy, i havent heard a peep, where as the previous 2 nights, where his day sleeps where only about 45min, he was wide awake at 4am, and i was leaving him to play in his cot till he went back to sleep about 2hours later, and still, he was awake again at 7, and grumpy as anything for the rest of the day.
    You would think it would be the other way around, no day sleep, better night sleep, but, they need to feel rested and content sorta i guess.


    Anyway - best of luck. I hope you get a BFP soon!! How long did it take you with Lewis?

    it took 20 months last time with IVF etc. This time I'm trying TCM and acupuncture instead, so who knows...
