tania - i love the secret santa idea. LOL at Jayden singing My HUmps!!
Arch and I just cooked up a batch of white choc and raspberry muffins mmmmmmmm.
I am taking Archie away to my family reunion in country victoria on the weekend. Unfortunately Jay has to work. We have the reunion at the same spot each year adn its awesome. We laso have a game of cricket between my Pa's family and my Great Uncles family, there is a trophy that goes to the winning family for the year. Last year our side of the family lost the game by 1 run due to cheating and bad scoring, so lookout this year, we have even got people to bring their friends who are good cricketers LOL.

Have a top trip Tania!
What a lovely weekend Elissa! Lol at him requesting nappies though. Darc does if she's tired too. Hmmmm yummy muffinss.
Leanne, I so hope they improve on the nappy thing....yuck. Don't think of yourself as the annoying mother - you're improving theiir service for other kids!
Those of your who are on meds...did they make you fel horrendous for the first whiel? I feel good in myself, but annoyingly nauseas....
Ooh and I haven't put on any weight!!!...lol may have to do with the fact that I haven't felt like eating in a while....
-
kim - as in meds, im guessing you mean ADs? If so, i had shocking diahorrea for the first week, not painful though, and headaches and nausea for a couple of weeks. The meds really kicked in after 3 weeks of taking them. Cause of the dahorrea i lost a few kilos at the start, but in the last month i have started stacking it on unfortunately. I have also started on a different pill though, so that could be the culprit. What meds are you on? I am sorry that you have had to go back on them, but good on you for knowing how to help yourself. Hope you are feeling great very soon x
A friend of Jays stayed at our place last night. This morning at breakfast the friend was making silly faces at Archie, Arch turns to him and says "You're a d!ckhead". Out of the mouths of babes hey! Couldn't argue with him really, he was acting like a d!ckhead LOL
-
I feel really sick if I miss a couple Kim but didn't feel sick when I first started (I don't think LOL)
-
Elissa - how funny is Archie, gosh he is a little character. Is Archie only just getting his molars? I was surprised how early lachlan started to get his, seeing as he was such a late teether. But his 2 year old ones came nearly spot on 2, well I know he has two of em, can never look in these days to see about the other 2. Boy did he has wet sloppy poos from them though!
Kim - did I miss something, what you on meds for???
I rang the child dentist and they only take them from 4 years of age. I am sure I read 2 though somewhere..... not that I am worried, cause I don't think lachlan would open his mouth for anyone, he won't let me go near his mouth, brushing his teeth is a huge struggle. I more just wanted him to go to get aquainted and all that!
-
I know when I was on my meds I felt a little nauseous at first, but then felt great.
I have been off them now for about 4 months, am taking HUGE amounts of fish oil, which helps most of the time. When I have my bad days I REALLY have bad days.
Now more on the nappy saga......
So I go to daycare tonight to pick up my little miss and the lady who was working the day of my 'complaint' was on.
She was in Katy's room cleaning up when I went to get her bag and she says to me 'you really upset me the other day with your terrible comments. How could you think that I would let your daughter walk around in a wet nappy all day?' She had been to the toilet about 5 times and her nappy was not that bad. Do you want me to change it every time it is a little wet?
I did not know what to say.
So I said ... I did not mean to upset anyone, but I was the one disappointed (see I used that word again... how good am I!!) It's a little hard to know what happens in Katy's day. By the time I get here to pick her up all of her teachers have pretty much gone home, and there are no notes sent home or even a record of her TT'ing on her daysheet so what do you expect a mother to think?
I am so proud of myself.
I am in the middle of baking gingerbread cookies for work on Friday. I have organised a pink casual day for breast cancer month, so I am making them all iced pink!
Nite nite all
-
Well done Leanne!! What a cow that woman sounds!! I can't believe she would have a go at you like that, we would be shot if we said somehting like that to a parent.
-
Sheree - anti-anxiety meds. Aropax to be exact for the AND.
Darcy got her 2yo molars at 11 months and is now get teeth 17-20 (ie 4yo molars). So I guess the range is huge. Not bad for someone who didn't get a single tooth until 10mo.
Good girl Leanne! Pooey to her getting upset - yes she should change it - would she like to walk around in wet pants all day - maybe you should send reall undies then they's be forced to change her if an accident happened.
-
Kim have you only developed the anxiety whilst being pregnant???
I didn't know there were 4 year old molars?????? Lachlan didn't get a single tooth till 9mths either.
Leanne - good job for saying something, she was definitely trying to cover up something with the way she attacked you. And geez she shouldn't have done that anyways.

Ryan is well and truly cheeky he just doesn't shut up now chatter all the time tonight at the dinner table when i asked him to be quiet and eat he ignored me i raised my voice and he nearly dirtied himself then starting crying tell his dad that mummy hurt me over and over then said daddy, mummy hurt me she yelled at me. that is the longest sentence he has strung to gether and it is lovely to finally hear him talking but enough is enough when you just want dinner over with lol he still hasn't come near me yet i better go make peace before bed.

sheree - yep i hear ya on the runny poos! 1 of his molars must have really been on the move last night, he was bawling cause his ear was sore, im thinking it was referred pain from his tooth.
leanne - well done for sticking up for youself, you handled it really well.
kim - i am ion Aropax too, hope it works as well for you as it has for me. WOW at Darcy's speedy teething!!
shazz - what an awful weeks you had! GL with your exams, you'll blitz em!
Had a fantastic time at the reunion, Arch loved playing with all the other little boys, there are so many of them! We won the annual game of cricket, and i was a bit of a star, who'd have thought! We are off to Adeliade for 2 weeks today, so talk to you all when i get back
-
Have a great time in Adelaide Elissa, fantastic about the cricket too!!
Riley had a shocking night last night not sure why but I am wrecked this morning.
Tomorrow DD is 17!!! I have organised some of her girlfriends to go for pizza tonight as a surprise. She knows somehting is up cause her silly friend let something slip but she has no idea when or where or who so hopefully she will be a bit surprised. She thinks she is going over to a friend's tonight and I am driving her so on the way we will drop into the pizza place to order my dinner so she has to go in.
I cannot believe I have been a mother for 17 years!! You'd think I'd be better at it by now LOL

Sorry quick fleeting visit from me.
I got to sleep at 6am this morning and slept till 9am.
Wade had organised the morning off work anyway so that he could pack us up. I was meant to be leaving for mackay today (3 hours away) for the boys specialist appts but I have had a severe reaction/allergy to something and my eye has been festering for the past couple of days now, but last night it was really bad. So red and swollen, and stinging. I have been itchy all down the right side of my face. Right scalp, eyebrow, eye. Just couldn't stop itchy. So had a horrible night and took an antihistamine at 8pm after Riley's feed, and the chemist told me to not feed him for atleast 4 hours. But he woke at 11am, so Waded patted him back to sleep and then he woke at 11.30pm but must have self settled as we didn't hear him until 5.30am this morning. At this point my nose had been running all night like a tap and my throat was sore, my gaw was sore and I felt like my head was going to explode. Lachlan didn't even wake last night, so there was my chance to catch up on some sleep (cause Riley has been waking 3 hourly at night for feeds lately) and I didn't get it as I was in so much pain. Lachlan was ferral last night and wouldn't eat dinner, so we sent him to bed crying his little heart out, with no dinner, no bath. I was hoping he was not getting sick too, but appears fine this morning, thank god. I just couldn't possibly do the drive now with this eye. We travelled 40min this morning to an after hours doctor who has now given me antibiotics and a eye cream and also I have to take a anithistamine once a day. Hopefully I will be on the mend soon. I was so annoyed, cause Riley hasn't fed since 8pm last night and I had the opportunity to feed him before he properly woke up this morning at 5.30am, only I was exhausted and asked Wade to bring him to me and I attempted to feed whilst laying down. Well this woke up the little sod and he wouldn't feed. I knew I should have gone into his room and rocked him in the chair to feed. ARggghh... I was so tired to think. So it is now 12.30pm and he stil hasn't fed, I sooo struggle with him with feeds thru the day, no wonder he feeds so much thru the night and no wonder I am not well, just soooo run down! Anyway hope to do my trip to Mackay tomorrow, only have to cancel my lactation appt for tomorrow and try to make it for the following Monday now. So glad it is Sunday, so Wade is here to look after the boys. Anyway if you don't hear from me after this post I will talk to you all in a week. Oh and when the doctor looked down my throat, she could see a foreign matter that shouldn't be there. So now I have to see an ENT specialist too. The one Lachlan is seeing is a child ENT, but she has done me a referral and she said surely he will just have a quick look down your throat. Hoping it is nothing sinister.

I am confused.
I am no longer on my PND meds, but my PMS mood is so so bad I am so depressed I just want to run away and vanish.
Is that normal... and can I do anything about it? Does anyone else feel like this.
The only upside I can see is that it has happened for the second month in a row on CD21 - so it could mean my cycles may be becomming 'normal'
-
christine - happy birthday to Jess! 17 years of mothering just makes me feel exhausted!!
sheree - goodness me Sheree you poor chook! I am hoping your throat is nothing to worry about. Hope Riley's night feeding settles soon for you, you are an absolute champion for pushing through all of this and still feeding, i know that i wasn't and wouldn't be that strong, so well done hun.
leanne - even on my meds my PMS is shocking, i am always yelling at Archie, i feel like I want to divorce Jay, its really awful. I hope this means your cycles are settling
Sounds like Archie just finally gave in adn went to sleep, he's been in there hysterically crying, trying to get his own way, at the moment im really not enjoying toddlerhood.
-
It makes me exhausted too Elissa LOL I hear you on the toddlerhood too, Riley finally went to sleep at 10pm last night and of course is still asleep now when I need him up to get ready to go to work.
Leanne- I am the same as Elissa, even on meds my PMS is still terrible! Glad you seem to be sorting your cycle out though.
Sheree- hope you feel better soon you poor thing, you really do cop all the good stuff don't you?
-
at least Riley will sleep in in the morning after a late night, Arch still gets up at the same time, maybe we should swap kids?
