Melly - Good to hear from you. Hope Sienna gets better soon, poor little thing. Yep, Lara is into chucking the tantrums too, don't you just love it......NOT!!! Lara lays on the ground and kicks and carries on like a pork chop screaming the house down. I remember DD1 started going through the terrible two's early so I think Lara is the same.
My scan went well. I get my results tomorrow when I visit the ob but the lady said bub will be on the smaller side of average, probably like Cadence and Lara. Cadence was 2.6kg born and Lara 2.7kg. They were born at 37wks and this one will be 36wks so roughly around the same weight, give or take a few ounces. It was great seeing bub again. He/she is still in the breech position but coz I am having a c/s it doesnt matter if it stays that way. Never got any pics though, the lady said bub wasn't in a good position for a profile shot or anything, nevermind.

Hey Ladies!
Sorry its been so long! Busy here with a running toddler and working 2 full days...
Melissa - Hugs babe! I understand how you would be upset and I hope that the shock wears off soon and you embrace your healthy little pink bundle! My DH wants a blue bub pretty bad for the next one so I guess that we may face the same issue at some stage.
Leigh - OMG I cant believe that you will soon have your bub!! thats amazing and awesome!!
Laurin - glad to hear from you!!
Melly - hope bub gets better asap!!
I hear you all on the tantrums!! Bella is just starting to now! The other day she didnt want to go somewehre so I grabbed her and and she went to bite me WTF!!! Usually I can distract her so I hope that lasts!!
As for me - we are all well! Bella is triving and speaking so well! I just love her to bits!
I MAY have some news... we have been TTC #2 and I am 4 days late with AF and I have done 2 tests that show VERY VERY feint lines... not getting excited yet as I know what its like to have an early loss. I am a bit confused as to why it would be so feint.. maybe I O'd latter than I thought?? Anyway will test again Friday and see how that goes.
Hope your all well

Kate - Great to hear from you! Yay on your feint positive hpt, fantastic news & I hope you get a darker line on Friday. Make sure you let us know how it goes. I don't know how you can hold out until Friday, but I'm obsessive when it comes to testing lol. Lara has actually tried to bite me a few times too and lately she has been whacking the tv screen. She makes sure I am looking at her do it too. When I went mad on her this afternoon for it she just laughed. DD1 was never a biter so I am hoping Lara isn't bad at doing it, especially with a new baby on the way. She is such a mummy's girl so it wouldn't surprise me if she tries to bite the baby or something.

Thanks girls, I am feeling much better tonight. Am sure in a few days it will all be good.
Melly- Becca has tanties.... throws herself on the floor, kicks and screams! Olivia was the same at this age but once she came out with loads more words around her 2nd bday, they definately died down because she could express herself somewhat better and we could meet her needs without just guessing most of the time. She also tries to bite, but I dont let her get away with that, simply because Liv was a shocker with biting!
Kate- oohh..fingers crossed hon. Looking forward to your news.
Leigh, glad bubs is doing well.
Am going to bed, really knackered after all this emotional stuff! Looking forward to getting back to normal:)
-
Hi Girls,
Mel - How are you feeling now? Have things started to settle down a bit? I've been thinking of you.
Kate - Did you test again today? Can't wait to hear how you went.
Nothing much to report from me really. Just popping in to see how everyone is going?
Hi to everyone I have missed.
-
Hi ladies. I had another 2 feint positive tests but I started to bleed a lot this morning so I would say that I may have had another early loss. I have terrible cramps and a bit of clotting.
I feel a bit sad but to make it worse my close freind that I work with got a positive test this morning - we were trying to get preg at the same time.
Never mind, I hope the pain stops soon and its just like a normal AF so I can try again this cycle.
Thanks ladies xox
-
Hugs to you Kate. Am hoping it doesnt take to long for the pain to settle down ad you can start over again. Rest up hun x o
Leigh- thanks, I am doing much better. Starting to relax now and I think we have decided on Amy Melissa as her name. Rebecca has tonsilitis so its been no sleep here and I am so tired. Hope tonight is different now shes on ab's!
-
Oh Kate, I hope you're ok. My fingers are still crossed that everything turns out ok for you though. I bled with this baby for 2 whole weeks and had clots and everything. I have had 2 miscarriages so I was certain I was losing this one too. However if yours does turn out to be an early loss I hope that it isn't painful and that the bleeding doesn't last long. My fingers will be crossed it doesn't take long to fall again and that you get a really sticky one!!!
Mel - Hope Rebecca gets better soon & that you guys get a good sleep tonight. Glad you're doing much better and I love Amy Melissa for a name, you're more organised than me in the name department!
Now I am definitely planning on washing some baby clothes this weekend. I've had the tall boy for a week and still haven't done anything. With less than 3 wks to go I really need to get my bum into gear and get organised. Its just so hard to do when you're chasing after 2 other kids all day.
-
Sorry about the quick post last night, Bec was not happy. Shes had a better sleep and has woken up almost her old self (wont stop talking). shes still in someobvious pain so have kept up panadol and nurofen, but the dribble is still pooring out! Am glad I went to the drs yesterday.
Again Kate I am really sorry to hear your news. Take good care of yourself.
Leigh- youre funny! Happy clothes washing! Good that you have the tall boy and at least after a week of having it there you can now start putting something in it! You still have 3 weeks...its ok!
Amy Melissa... yeah its growing on me. Definately not something I would have chosen, but I think that dh put it out there and he likes it, so I'm happy to go with it! Especially since Olivia says it all the time. I have started talking to her and calling her Amy, so its obviously going to stick! Well times up..becca is at my feet!

Hi guys
Sorry I have been MIA, I keep forgetting to log on!! All going good here, just a few issues, dinner refusal ATM, she won't have a bar of it!! So not sure what to do, the other night I mixed vegies with yoghurt and she ate it...HAHA!
Mel that is just so exciting about another little girl!! I understand the disapointment too, I will be a bit sad if it is a girl next, as I do want a boy, but also, I would prefer all girls than all boys if that makes sense?? Ive always wanted a girl. Lol. The name you like is gorgeous. How is Bec now, hope she is ok!
Leigh omg the date is creeping up! Did you end up getting the baby clothes organised? I bet it is surreal looking at those tiny little clothes again!
Kate oh Im so sorry for your early loss :( I had an early loss before Mia and it is just crushing. My BFPs got lighter and lighter :( I hope next cycle is a sticky bubby!
Arrrgh sorry if Ive missed anyone, Mia is playing up and not going to sleep, so off to deal with her :P

Hello all... just thought Id post while i have some quiet time!! Dh is in the bath with the girls..peace!
Skyblue- Becca is better thanks. She picked up so quickly with abs. Dinner refusal.... we have that sometimes with becca. I am a sucker I give them dinner and if they dont eat it, before bed I will make milkshake with milk, banana and yoghurt. Its something in their tummy and its good for them! Hope its just a passing phase,
Hi everyone esle! Just quickly i got to change hospitals today! very happy to be able to have this one where my other 2 were birthed. What else..... um i think dh is changing his mind on names! He asked about Megan! I will let him choose. I had most say with the other 2! We have about 18 weeks left to make a firm decision, so anything goes!
Better run! Take care

Hi girls,
Been a looong time since I've posted, but occassionally I get the email updates. Exciting to hear about all the next bubbas coming along - not long for some now!! DH is still adamant that we won't be having any more and I'm not getting any younger so I have been slowly getting my head around that as much as I would like another. It is a bit sad packing away all the little clothes knowing they won't be used here again - but I am sure there will be plenty of nieces/nephews still to come.
All well here, Willow growing up and has her 4 canine teeth coming through atm, all at once poor thing, but she has been pretty good with them. Lots of chatting, loves climbing (have to be very careful turning my back for even a minute), drawing and wants to do everything the same as her big sister (sigh!). At the moment she has two days a week at daycare, in 2 different centres but that seems to be working well and she actually really loves going (which is very different to Miss C).
Fingers crossed all goes will with your impending arrival Leigh and that there are no dramas this time around. Look forward to hearing the news.
Take care everyone and will try and keep on a little more regularly...

Hi Girls,
Skyeblue - Good to hear from you. Hope Mia starts eating her dinner for you again soon. Its so hard when they wont eat, Lara is like that sometimes too. Hopefully its a phase that wont last too long. I've washed some of bubs clothes, should be enought to get me through until we actually find out the sex when its born. I've also washed the towels and blankets and wraps. I just need to pack my hospital bag. bubs too.
Mel - That's great news re the hospital, its nice knowing all 3 kids will be born at the same place. I like the name Megan too.
Jo - Great to hear from you. Sounds like you and Willow are well. Lara is a climber too, can't take my eyes off her for a second with out her climbing onto something. Glad Willow is enjoying daycare.
Not long to go for me now, 2 wks from tomorrow. Everytime I think about it I get butterflies in my stomach. I am excited plus nervous. I just hope I get another good baby, one thats a great sleeper would be nice!!! I'm a bit worried how Lara will be with a new baby in the house. She is such a mummy's girl. I can just imagine her poking and prodding the baby when its in its rocker or swing or something.
Gotta go, I've got Lara tugging on my leg and crying, theres never much me time is there with little ones around.

Hi guys
Leigh WOW only 2 weeks to go! I can understand you feeling a bit nervous, isnt it funny not knowing what "kind" of baby you will get? Lol that sounds funny but I mean in regards to sleeping, feeding, personality etc! I hope you get a nice placid baby who sleeps really well :)
Mel glad Becca is feeling better, now that she has had the abs. That's great you are going to the same hospital as you went to with the girls! Iss it over your side of Melbourne?
I just got a bowl of home made pumpkin soup into Mia tonight! Woohoo! Very happy. Like you Mel, I am a sucker and give her a bowl of porridge or something before bed to fill her tummy up!
Ok, better go and clean the highchair tray :)
-
Hey all...
Hey Jo, sounds like willow is going along well...similar to rebecca! She has a dint in her head which has scarred and shes also came in with a bruised and bloddy nose! Constant climber!
Skye- good tohear you got something inot Mia. I am going to Monash in Clayton:) There were sending me to Dandenong because I am low risk, but that place is revolting!
Leigh- 2 weeks...how very exciting nerve wrecking!
All good here...rebecca is raiding the cupboard! A no go with dinner and now shes hungry!
-
Hi Girls,
Just a quick one from me. The hospital called this arv saying they are moving my c/s ahead by one day so it will now be next Wed 23rd of June. Bub will be 35wks 6days. Coz I am high risk they want me on the Wed coz the more experienced team of obs perform high risk c/s on Wednesdays. Im sooooo nervous now, I know its for the better though. I keep thinking negative thoughts though, like what if I die and leave my 3 kids behind. I need to stop thinking like that but can't help it. I'm still unorganised, now that its one day earlier I will have to get a move on.
Hope you're all well!
-
Oh Leigh...all the very best. You'll be fine. It is fantastic that they have moved you with the more experienced team. Good thought to you. So only 1 week to go..plenty of stuff for your to do. I cant wait to hear your news. Is someone announcing your arrival... ? I just want to know how I will find out!!! Am very excited for you. Got your names all sorted?
We are doing ok. The girls have just got over a tummy bug. Lots of vomiting and some runny poos! Bec is still off her food, Olivia is starting to eat a bit more. Oh...Beccas not sleeping in her cot...AGAIN! Some days she will have a nap, other days she will just stay awake. Shes 19 months tomorrow...which makes me think...Olivia was 19.5 months when Bec was born and Olivia dropped her sleep around 21 months! yay... I can see the sleep pattern happening! Never moind!
-
Good luck Leigh!! I know that you will be fine and I cant wait to see your BA! Do you want one of us to do it?? I can if you like - you cantext me if you like?
Mel - hope you guys get better asap and you all start eating agaiun soon!
As for me - Bella going So well! She is speaking so much and will have a go at anywords that you say - she says some words that she shouldnt too! oops!
Bella is still sleeping 1 sleep during the day - she slept for 3 hrs yesreday! WOW I hope that she keeps having a day nap for a while - I will be trying to push her to but I guess they do what they are going to do!
DH and I have ramped up the TTC - I have my fingers crossed that I will fall this month after the early loss last month - we fell straight after my mc with Bella so fingers crossed!
Hope eveyone else is well!
Better gp - at work and need to get some stuff done!
