Awwww Ash - I think we are all in denial and teary aren't we......silly mums! I was looking at Iz today and she was playing with this kid in the waiting room of the Dr and I was imagining the new gumnut at that age and was sad because he/she wasn't a baby anymore! Isn't that the most ridiculous thing you have heard!!!! Bubby isn't even here yet and I'm sad because he/she is all grown up!

Well I got my combined scan and BT for downs back!!! My Trisomy 21 risk is 1 in 11200 and 1 in 68500 for Trisomy 18! I know it is a number and still a risk but I am so relieved! I was worried that the scan was low risk but my bloods would show high risk! My iron levels are ridiculously low though, and I need to keep taking suppliments, **slaps own wrist** I haemmoraged with Iz and never took the minimum 3 mths of tablets, in fact I am still taking the one month supply I have left from havin gher - no wonder it is low Anyway if that is all I have to worry about then yay plus it's only about 3-4 weeks til we find out if I'm cooking another pink or blue one! Yippppeeeee

Ok off to spend time with my snotty grizzler - she woke up with the most amazing green snot today (ewwwwwww sorry!!! ) so I think I will stay home with her for the next few days - GP gave me a cert so Im all set!
Have a good one ladies!

Fantastic news about your numbers Tan. You're right - they are just numbers, but they're BIG numbers and you've got to be happy with that! Sorry your little princess isn't well - and green snot. Mmmmmm. Yummy for that mummy suffering morning sickness!

I know what you're saying about growing them up too fast. Watching Izzy run (yes, run!) through the house and knowing that in no time at all she will be my oldest because I will have a new baby makes me very, very sad.

Hi Everyone!!
Sorry have been MIA, just had a quick catch up on the posts. Can't believe Mason is one!! Happy Birthday for yesterday little man!! I'm in denial too about the Ethyn turning one.

Tan - lucky you, green snot!!!! Glad you levels are great

Lulu - not long to go, how are you feeling?

Ash - hope Blake keeps sleeping thru, makes you feel so much better after a good night sleep

Sarah - how exciting about getting your ticket!!

Hope everyone else is well, my comp is going slow at the moment so its a bit frustrating to try and go back a couple of pages to do a proper lot of personals, but I'm reading and thinking of you all!!
Question about the KK's do we tell them who it is, or does it remain a secret?
Quick one about Ethyn, he still has an ear infection, basically he finished one lot of anti biotics then went on a different lot and had some ear drops he seems better, but he keeps getting infections, so we have booked him in to see a paediatrician, so hopefully he will find something that the docs keep missing.

Hey sorry i've been MIA. Annabelle and i have been very sick, im ok now but Annabelle is still doing water poos!
Doc and i thought it was Gastro and if i go by the dates of when she 1st started 2 get sick then im hopeing thats all it s though 2 day i was horrifed 2 find the kids cheese sticks i've been giving her r 6 months out of date!!! Even though i brought them from safeway at the start of this wk! I rang safeway and all they offered me was a refund 4 the product?????? ummm excuse me my 10 1/2 month old daughter could have DIED and ur offering me $4.00 4 my troubles???????
I think im going 2 take it further, i dont want or need the money im just furious!

Im very sorry 4 the selfish post, ill b back 2mro and go through every oe elses!


Also HAPPY BIRTHDAY MASON!!!!! That sounds weird and i wont get used 2 it any time soon, even with many more 2 come

[Shellbelle]

Just a quickie - Kass ring KRAFT direct. There should be a free call number on the back of the pkt. They will be more helpful etc than where you brought it. i found something in a cheese slice once and they had a courier pick it up from me so they could investigate it. In the end it was just a burnt bit of cheese that had come off the machinery, but still, they were very helpful, gave me a huge refund and an apology letter!

BBL for more, have just come home from work and am about to pass out.... c Ya!

[sangie]

Kass I agree with Shell, ring kraft and I'd ring Safeway head office too. I hope you guys feel better soon.......

Tan your levels are great, fantastic news!!! Hhhhhhmm green snot, lucky you NOT!!

Lulu OMG at your princess running around - I bet she looks adorable. How are you feeling hun, oooohhh can't wait to hear of Ned's arrival.

Lee good luck with the Paed and I hope little Ethyn doesn't get any more infections, poor little guy they are so nasty..

Tired here today, working is really tiring and I haven't had much help from DH around the place lately as he has been so busy. Good news is that he has landed a new job that comes with a decent pay rise woo hoo! Hopefully that will mean I won't have as much pressure to return to work after we have number 2. Yay!!!!!

[Sair]

Hey everyone just a quick one for me. I finally posted my KK. The post office lady wouldn't post mine without the return name and address on the back so there goes the secret.

Well def not going to try for a catchup, noah is attacking the laptop so I better give him attention now before he destroys it which he has already.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MASON!!!

Bye for now!!!!

[Kazmar]

Hey ladies thanx very much 4 ur help, ill call them 2day

Lee- Hope everything is fine and its just something silly that they missed and is easy 2 fix up y do they have 2 get sick?!

Tan- Sorry 2 b a pain but i deleted the PM u sent me with the lil one im buying 4 would it bother u terribly 2 send it again ? Sorry i no u have ur hands full

Lulu- Hurry up and have that lil girl! Have u got names?

BBL ladies 2 do more personals and catch up all that i have missed! But im in my pj's still and we have playgroup in 15mins! Annabelle has decided 2 have a sleep so maybe ill havesome time 2 get ready!

[Beach Mama]

Sent Kass!!

Hope you are all well - quick one here, I'm sick too now so having a couch day with my girl!! Have a great day ladies - I need to brainstorm for my KK - eeeek!

[LuluHB]

Kass - poor Annabelle. So horrible when they're so small and so sick. Hopefully Kraft will do something more reasonable. I'm amazed at how much out of code stuff is left on shelves - especially dairy and meats that can be so dangerous.

Lis - great news about your hubby's new job. Hard when they slack off around the house isn't it - I think my DH has taken the view that because I'm home all day its my job. The fact that it takes me about 5 minutes to get up off the floor seems to have slipped his notice!!

Lee - I was wondering about the KK too. Given I'm the only one in Perth, even without a return address the postmark is going to give it away! Oh well. At least someone will know where to send a letter of complaint!!

Tan- hope you and Izzy both feel better soon. Enjoy the couch - I'd kill for a day on the couch but unfortunately Iz has other ideas, like playing with the oven and the cupboards and the tv! Good luck on the KK brainstorm - I keep getting ideas and then changing my mind.

Off for a midwife check up soon (my OB is away on holiday until mid next week). I just know she's going to say nothing's going on but hey, this little one can't stay in there forever, can she???? I spent hours cooking stuff to freeze for Izzy last night. She has become very fussy with food and won't eat anything at all that comes out of a packet or jar so I thought I'd better make sure the freezer is full - if I left it to DH she'd have a diet of crumpets, cruskets, plums, hot chips and sausages. She'd be thrilled with that, but not exactly a nice rounded diet (although in fairness I think the major food groups are covered).

[Beach Mama]

OMG Lulu!!! You are so close hun!!! Have you had any niggles yet? I can't remember now if Izzy was early or late - Im thinking she was a bit early from her date of birth but not sure now!!! Not that it means anything anyway. Good luck with your appointment - let us know how you go!

[LuluHB]

Tan - I've had so many niggles its not funny. I've given up trying to analyse what all the pains mean now and am joking to my DH that Ned will be 6 weeks overdue and I'll be sitting in a pool of amniotic fluid saying oh, they're just pains!! Iz was induced when she was 4 days late (scan dates changed on me, so I should really have been in the April group) and was born 5 days overdue (although spot on due date according to my dates). I have a very strong feeling this baby will be late, and for some reason 6 May is the date in my head. God I hope not though!!

All normal for check up - more comments like "but you haven't put on ANY weight". I love how they keep telling me that, as if its something I don't know!!

[Shellbelle]

OOOH, just been to post office and KK pressie is on it's way!!! I had to put my address as well and sign it so won't be a surprise oh well

Anyway, am dog tired so am going to try and organise kids to have an early night.

Lulu, my guess 30th April!! Take care!! (just had to use the cheerleader- luv it!)

[Danni]

Wow how exciting lulu!! I think Ned will be early. Hoping really soon for you

Thanks so much for all the birthday wishes girls! Ash, you made me cry as usual!! You know how much we love you guys xxx

Mason is one. Unreal. I am STILL in denial Kristen

Still no walkuing or attempting to walk here. He is very content with crawling and walkung aroiund the furniture atm.

We are moving house today so might not be on for another few days but I will be back on full time soon. yay!!!!

xxxx

[Liviam]

CONGRATULATIONS ON GETTING POSESSION OF YOUR HOUSE TODAY DANNI

Have fun moving!!

[sangie]

Ok Lulu since others are guessing I better put my two cents worth in too! I reckon Ned will arrive on April 28!

Danni good luck with move, will be great when you are all settled into your new house! Congrats on being a home owner!

Shell there will be no secrets either when I post my KK present too as I'm sure I will have to put my details on the back as well

Gotta go, Ellie has gone down for a nap so here is my chance for a peaceful shower. Have a lovely day all!

[Beach Mama]

Yay for moving house today Danni! How exciting!!

We are all still nice and snotty around here, Izzy seems to be a tiny bit better and I'm a million times worse Typical. Just trying to get some housework done rather than sitting around feeling sorry for myself but I keep getting hot flushes - Clearly should be in bed!

Just letting you all know that everybody in the KK has contacted me and let me know that they definately are going to be involved, but be aware that for whatever reason, some may not arrive ON or before your bub's birthday, but rest assured it won't be too far behind!!

Ok I'm off to cruise BB for a bit!

[Liviam]

Just a quick one from us. We are all sick with colds here and if that isn't making us all feel crap enough Livvy has decided to cut 3 teeth at the same time. Poor little munchkin is feeling so bad and we can't do anything for her . On a better note Livvy wanted to me send the biggest thankyou to her KK. She loves Felicia and loves playing with her in the bath. It is so cool how it glows under the water. Livvy wets herself laughing everytime she dunks it. So a massive thank you.
I'm off to bed as I have to work in the morning. Fingers crossed I'm feeling better than today. Couldn't lift my head this morning so Dave had to call me in sick.
Hope everyone is having a great weekend and i'll catch up real soon.
