    Fi - I'm the same about the births... I don't feel traumatised as such about my emergency CS but I still get sad/disappointed when I read birth stories that all go so beautifully... it's put a spanner in the works regarding my doula work I tell ya!

    Aww Rach thats great she is sleeping so much but it is kinda scary...I continually check Flynn when he sleep long periods I will probably get Flynn something small like a lovely teddy and some books and maybe some of his own clothes so he doesnt have to wear hand me downs all the time

    hi ladies,
    i know i idnt check in for my vent, after i cooled down i realised how silly i was being, so im glad i didnt do a big write up about it you girls would have tought i was shocking LOL>
    Fi: im so sorry your birth didnt go as planned, but you did do an amazing job you brought a gorgeous healthy baby into the world and that is the main thing, Boomba i am like you i didnt have a birth plan, purely coz i was lazy and thought i had more time, the MW kept asking me a bunch of qustions and i kept telling her i didnt know as i hadnt written one up it was far to hard to labour and think at the same time.
    Boomba: how exciting about the santa photos, i so wana get A some santa photos but DH isnt keen, might just do it with MIL while he's away
    Rach2281: i bet it has scared the crap out of you everytime She has slept through, i hope this doesnt come across wrong but everytime i think of Sids or when i get a fright with A when she sleeps for too long, i always think of you and what you went through with Lilli, you are an amazing person, to go through what you have been through and still be so strong, my hat goes off to you sweetness.

    AFM: like all you ladies DH has been driving me mad, it just feels like he's not being very helpful, we have a few issues, and later on when i have more time i will go into it a little further (not too far coz i dont want to bore you ladies to death LOL) A is doing amazing, she truelly is what i live for, she blows me away everyday how gorgeous she is and i still cant believe we created such an amazing little cherub. she has her 2 month needles this week, im nto looking forward to it at all
    I got my hair cut on friday made me feel a million times better im getting my eyes tested again so i will be wearing my glasses again next week, i didnt wear them the whole time i was pregnant coz my eyes changes the dr said not to get new glasses til after i had her coz they would change again lol.

    i cant really remember who lives close to me, any of you ladies live near the sunny coast, im going mad DH doesnt want me to join a mums group which im a little upset about, i really would love to meet some new mums with bubs around A's age.
    anyway off to bath my darling.
    have a good night

    Hey ladies!
    Well I got to my breaking point the other night.Lucy was up 14hrs crying with 3min naps. She was in complete pain. Im not one for medicine so tried some Braun(sp) wind relief stuff, didn't make any difference. So in the morning I rang my back doctor as I had a convo with him about how he helps babies etc etc...... Ill never look back! My baby is smiling flat out and SLEEPING!!!! She she'll co sleep after waking during the night but thats just what my babies do
    Pap smear.....not done...yet! Ill call the womens clinic tomorrow and have a chat about my fears. They'll put me at ease hopefully!

    boomba- Thanks Its very hard as he was/ is my best friend. We're truly close. Even now trough death we have a stronge conection
    OMG Im so scared of Annabelle picking up Lucy. She has tried many times infront of me, scares me to think behind my back! Well done little man on the weight gain! We dont smack but when it comes to hurting themselves or eachother I dont have another reaction yet either. Dont feel bad, though I agree I always do after

    Rach75- My god keep us updated! Good luck!

    fi1980- Men are shocking! They do one thing that we do on a regular basis and they are GOD for a week afterwards Hope you can move past your c/s I dont think you're they only one feeling like that

    rach2281- Mabye Eva's joints are way out of wack like Lucy's were??? Im not all for getting babies chiroed but I cant lie. It worked! They dont crack them. My Doc just worked with Lucy's preasure points. For xmas NO IDEA!

    Stevie W- Join a playgroup! It saved my life when I 1st had Annabelle! Y doesn;t he want you to join a mothers group?

    Hi everyone!!

    Some of you I already know from our Belly Buddies group but then my DS decided to make his grand entrance 2 months early so things went just a bit cuckoo after that!

    Anyone - because with a prem you're always working with 2 ages (see my ticker) as far as gauging developmental progress, etc, I figure I'm going to stalk both this group and the September 1 one so between the both of them I'll hopefully be able to sort things out!

    I'm a bit slack lately at posting long replies - not because I don't want to but because I'm dealing with a few major personal things at the moment, DS is seriously windy every 2nd day and I've been fighting a pretty bad cold for the past week, but I'll do my best to keep up with everyone so please bear with me for a bit.

    Will be back in a bit later tonight to catch up on this one from the beginning, but hope everyone enjoyed their Sunday night -

    S xo
