Hello lovlies!! Sorry been MIA - just been ridiculous I tell you!!!! Could've coped with just the newborn thing but have had repetitive sicknesses heaped ontop - DH ended up in hospital for a couple of nights and the day he came out they almost put me in!!!!! And all of a sudden DD#1 has become allergic to something so bad that her face swelled and she broke out in horrid red welts that kept moving around her body!! Plus family blah stuff to add to my repertoire.....

........well, can't say life has been dull ..... chortle chortle!

Thankfully have had mum & mil tending to us sicklies in bed and THANKFULLY DD#2 has remained healthy *phew*.

I worked out an expressing system so that MIL & DH could bf DD#2 overnight and they'd top up the feed with 20mls of formula - so it was nice to get an extra minute or two of shut eye.

So things are slowly getting back to normal - am taking the opportunity to say hi whilst DH & DD#1 are out for an 'excursion', no interruptions - yay!

Have done my best to catch up on everyone's journeys and ENGAGEMENTS!!! That's so fantastic!! Skim reading all the posts have certainly put my mind at ease about a few things that I was going crazy over - wind for example!! Keeping DD#2 up for ages to avoid having to change bedding and outfits and it doesn't seem to matter how long I keep her up for, she still makes a mess! And I have to keep washing her hair! LOL!! Am using Infacol.

And to those who are wanting to TTC#2 sooner rather than later - I am so proud of you girls!!! I think that that's wonderful and don't let ANYONE give you grief for it! (They need a slap in the head imo!!) It'll be an exciting day when we see your pg announcement!!

Funny though as when I got married I thought that I wanted 4 kidlets, then I had DD#1 and it shocked me so much that I said that I'll just take it one at a time. After having DD#2 at home for approx 6weeks and a 2&3/4 yr old, I am leaning towards being 'done' DH is keen as mustard to take the responsibility of ensuring that he can no longer donate his goods to make further babies!! LOL!!! But whilst I feel as though I am done, I really don't want to make it final for a least a couple more years - coz who knows what might happen. But really, at this point for me, it'll have to take writing in the sky to convince me to go again!! !!! Never thought that I'd think like that!

Have my final check up on Friday but was VERY annoyed when after being (tmi warning) 'clean' for over a week, when I went to the loo there were signs of AF returning ALREADY!!! But it feels like she can't remember what to do coz only had a little bit last Wednesday and Thursday (not enough to go on the pad) and then nothing until last night..........................so my body is trying to remember what to do I think! But how annoying!! Am bf and was looking forward to at least a few months of 'freedom', lol!!! Plus, am not impressed because am waiting for my check up for the all clear before DTD and if now I have AF, I have no idea how long it'll go for and seriously!!! DH & I are chomping at the bit!! Hahahahaha!!! Yes there are other ways but nothing like a lovely snuggle!

Anyways, on that note, teehee!! Will try and keep up to date with all you precious mummies and your gorgeous bundles. So take care sweets!

Mwa!!!
