Good luck today Tan! Can't wait to hear when your little munchkin is due, what an exciting day for you guys! Have you told your family yet? I'm gonna guess that you are 6 weeks

Danni and Kass I hope ur angels decide to settle down and sleep for you soon, I really feel for you guys

Ok BBL to find out Tan's news, can't wait lol

[Beach Mama]

Thanks Lis and everyone - OMG Im sooooooo nervous -I feel more sick than I normally do just thinking about it. My sister is coming with me to hold my hand.... so natural to stress and think about my angel but Im trying to be positive too. Back later with news!

[Shellbelle]

Oh Tan, I'm so excited for you, will be hanging out to hear all about it!! OK my guess is 5 wks! Although for your sake I hope you are more!! Anyway, will have my fingers crossed for you that all goes well!!!

We should start a betting book on this!! Tan, I think you're 6weeks 2 days. As for the tandem/double/toddler pram, I'll get back to you with my views on that all too soon!

I've just changed the pram I'm getting. The whole decision has been driving me nuts. I originally put a double mountain buggy on layby. I have the single MB and it is just sooooooo good so I wanted the double. Then started stressing about practicalities of a really wide pram for shopping etc so thought I would have to get a tandem too. So, on Monday after seeing a woman at the shops have to leave her double pram at the back of her car to get her babies out (I'd be so terrified someone would reverse into them, snatch them or whatever) I decided I really do need the tandem too so cancelled the MB and have now ordered a valco double and a babylove tandem - got both for about $500 less than the MB would cost!! So, DH is a very happy chappy and I'm a bit happier that I now have two prams to suit all my needs - hopefully!!

We're moving Iz into her "big girl's room" this weekend. So excited about that. Its a huge bedroom and has a semi-ensuite so she'll be a very happy teenager in years to come (God help me when the arguments start with her little sister over the bathroom!) We'll put Ned in the other big bedroom so she'll have a bedroom that's just as big, just no direct bathroom access. I'm actually starting to get excited now about Ned, which I'm really pleased about. Its been a long time coming. I've been sorting through all of Izzy's clothes to get the 0000s and 000s out for washing and have bought a few new things which has all been lots of fun. Iz hasn't been as much fun - she is so incredibly clingy at the moment and I seem to have her attached to me in some way all day long. DH and I went to Miss Saigon last night and left her with DH's parents. I wasn't very happy about it but when we called at intermission she had been asleep for an hour. By the time we got home though she had been screaming for a couple of hours. I felt so guilty, I just knew I shouldn't have gone. What do you do when your baby won't be happy with anyone but you though? My poor DH never gets me to himself anymore, and can't even have cuddles of his daughter to make up for it because she only wants me. Is anyone else having this problem? I'm really starting to stress about what will happen when Ned is born and I just can't comfort Iz everytime. It breaks my heart when she's got big fat tears running down her cheeks and she's holding her little arms out to me.

Good luck today Tan!! Be interesting to see how far along you are I'm no spring chicken either I'm going to be 33 in June
My SIL is pregnant again, she had her DS late June 07. She has had fertility issues since having an eptopic pregnancy about 12 years ago and has had to go thru a program just below going through IVF, (if that makes sense) after she had her son the doc said do you want contraception, she's said no because there was no need because of her issues, and now she is pregnant with no drugs at all!!! She found out at the end of January, and she was actually about 22 weeks pregnant when she found out!!

[Beach Mama]

Okay ladies!!! 7 weeks 4 days !!! Yayat least Im not 4 like DH thought! I am actually due on the 4th October - which is the day my gorgeous niece Grace was born, she will be 13 this year and will think this is FAB!

I had a heart attack second during the scan initially - when expert u/s expert that I am - couldnt see a thing on the screen and my heart just plunged and the Dr was all quiet but then he went through everything and we hear that beautiful 140 BPM sound!

So there you go! It feels a bit more real now, and I'm starting to get a bit excited too!

Have people over for dinner so Id better go get ready! Chat soon!

Lulu-thats great about the prams - I know you dont like the P & T but I think we will go down that road possibly!

Lee- 22 weeks - wow! I wish!

[Shellbelle]

OMG Tan that is awesome news!!! Have been waiting, and am so glad it is all good!!! October will be a beautiful time to have a baby! Well Done!!!

[Alex&Jack]

Hey guys!

Sorry I've been MIA a loooong time but have been over the top busy, but I always check in here to see what you ladies and bubs are up to!!

YAYAYAYAY Tan!! That's fab news! Are you gonna find out what this lil suprise is??
I have to tell you that I have the P & T pram and seeing my 2 are 18 months apart it has been an absolute godsend!!! I just love it to bits and I use it everyday.. Both boys can sleep if they need to and it is so light too.. Any q's just ask ok..

Well my littlest man Toby is crawling around the house at lightning speed, pulling up and walking around everything and letting go!! So not to long b4 he's walking I bet! At least he still sleeps thru the night! I guess I am so lucky cause both my boys have slept thru from about 4 months onwards, and if they do wake up, I just pop their dummy back in and they go back to sleep...I'm sending major sleep vibes out to all you non sleeping bubbas ok!! His big bro Jack has his nose out of joint cause now Toby can reach all his stuff now!!!! It's so funny!

Well gotta go hope every1 is great and I will try to pop in more often ok. Gotta go work out what I'm going to put in my risotto..

[sangie]

Yay Tan that is fabulous! Lol my guess wasn't too far off. You will be into the second trimester before you know it! How are you feeling, any m/s? You will have some exciting times ahead with choosing a pram, names, more scans etc. Oohh have you met your belly buddies? Ok can you tell I'm just a bit excited for you, sorry I bombarded you with questions

Lee wow at your SIL not knowing until she was 22 weeks! I bet she was shocked. No chance of that happening to me, I was huge at 22 weeks!

Alex nice to hear from you! Glad that your gorgeous boys are doing well. Hhhmm risotto sounds yummy.

Lulu I hear you on the clingy thing, we are going through something similar at the moment. She is fine at home but when we are out she won't go to anyone else and cries if somebody else wants to cuddle her. I hope its just a phase as this is so unlike her, normally she is such a social butterfly!

I went to Big W today and picked up some funky flannette PJ's for El for only $7 each! Luv a bargain! Gotta go, suppose I should start dinner.

[Kazmar]

Yay Tan!!! How exciting
Ill let everyone one know if i get a on Monday 2 b honest, ill b happy either way. I just dont think it's the best time in my life 2 b 20yrs with a bubs and pg!
Hey Alex not sure that we have met?

[Kristen]

Oh.....My.... God.....

TAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations hon - that is AMAZING news!!!

Danni - Congrats on the new house too!

God I feel like I haven't been here in forever - then again, I haven't really been anywhere in forever apart from work!!

I'm so crazy busy I can barely think straight... my next free/available weekend photography session isn't until... get this... MAY!

WTF??!?!?!

We're in friggin' February! I can hardly believe it - I am having an absolute BALL and I know for the next 12 months at least I don't have to think about returning to full time lawyer work (BLERGHHHHH!) so hopefully that situation remains and I can be a full time photographer forever!!! I just came back from Ballarat this afternoon doing a newborn shoot (photos are on my blog) - long drive but SO lucky to spend the afternoon with him!!

I promise I am reading up on everything - I just don't get a chance to sit down and respond as much as I would love to!!!!

Big hugs to everyone - I love hearing your news!
