Hi!
Short and sweet from me...
Had the wedding yesterday...It was a really long day spent mostly on my feet (no chairs at the ceremony!) and I stupidly wore high heels! We didn't get seated until around 7.30pm either so I had a really sore back and feet! It was a very elaborate wedding though and the bride looked gorgeous!
Anyway, didn't end up getting home until 1.30am so Dh let me have a big sleep in this morning which was nice (which is just as well cos he made me cry sat morning from being horrible..and making me do all the housework on my own)...except...when I did get up I felt soo sick and have so all day. Sounds like what you've had Trace...I've felt so nauseous and finally threw up just before..yuck! Luckily I feel a lot better for it now and hopefully it stays that way...Dylans been kicking all day and active so I'm sure we're both fine...
Anyway...I think I'm just going to chill out now..the house looks like a bombs hit it from my mum babysitting last night and dh watching Louis today but it can stay that way until tomorrow I think..
Good luck tomorrow Nikki and Cindy! Cindy - hope your reunions not as bad as your thinking - hehe.
Trace - Hope you're feeling better...everything I've eaten today has come back up so hopefully I'll be able to eat tomorrow. I'm feeling a bit hungry now but I'm too scared to eat anything..hehe.
Luckily dh has got another day off tomorrow just in case I'm still feeling yucky!
My update about work - The doctor was rude from the get go. He suggested I take out a hefty loan to get a lap band done. That was all before I opened my mouth to say hello. He then said to take off my clothes, bar my under wear and sit on a chair til he came back to do his examination. This all made me very nervous. Hence why my blood pressure took a jump in the wrong direction. He took me through some rigorous testing which included hitting points with one of those relax thingys pretty hard. Then he made me stand with my feet together and close my eyes and hit me first in the upper back, then in the chest quite hard. I was so ready to knock the guy out! He told me to get dressed. I then had to wait outside to try and get the nerves to disappear to help the blood pressure reading, but unfortunately that kind of made things worse. He said that I needed to get my gp to write him a letter in about 3 weeks telling him my blood pressure has been normal for that length of time, he also suggested medication for it too otherwise he could not pass me medically to work at this one meatworks. I cried most of the way home. The doctor had made me feel really small.
Thank for listening to me vent...
Some of you ladies have been very busy in here...
Nikki - You super mum you!
Kristie - How's your back and feet today?
Tracey - Get well soon!
Cindy - Yay on getting in on a photo shoot...
Kristy - How's Fergus doing after his shots?
Melissa
Nikki - caroline said for me to be there about 9.15. I am going to leave home just after 8 though incase the traffic is terrible. Its good you can take your niece with you for a helping hand too! See you in the morning!
Kristie - you poorthing chucking!!Its so not a natural thing to do is it!
The reunion wasnt as bad as expected, it was great seeing my uncles and one of them has just been up to the coast visiting my dad so it was good to see photos of him too.
Sorry ladies :rolleyes: I ment reflex thingys not relax thingys. That doctor did nothing to make me relax. I forgot to mention, that every room in his surgery, had a trickling waterfall in it with really pongy essential oils burning that gave me a headache.
Melissa
Melissa - you poor thing, thats terrible!!! Nobody should treat you like that for any reason and being a health care 'professional' he should know better. all sounds very strange to me. Hopefully it will all work out for you in the end though. I would have cried the whol way home too!!!!
Chin up!!
melissa,that is awful.i hope you are feeling better now.
how is the weight loss going?
oh gosh tracey and kristie,i hope i dont get what you guys have,my son had it yesterday also and the rest of our extended family has had it for the past week and we have spent alot of time with them lately.i really dont want it and cannot afford to give it to poor harry or even chantelle.
get well soon girls.

Hi.....
Feeling very sick...spent the night throwing up and on the toilet...I have never felt so sick in my life! I assume it's gastro - I've never had it before! I'm hoping my boys can avoid it as well...I can't even keep water down but I'm sooo hungry and thirsty. Dylan's still kicking away...I'm so glad dh is home today...he's been soo good helping me. I feel like a big sook but I just want to feel better...
I'm just about to post in p/g to see if there's anything I can do...I suppose I should call my dr this morning as well. I'm more worried about Dylan than me but he seems happy enough....
Melissa - sounds like a horrible experience I'm so sorry to hear about that. Stupid dr....
K - speak soon...
Kristie - Get well soon! You could try weak tea or flat lemonade, but ultimately some of the stuff from the chemist would be good. You really need something to keep you hydrated. I hope the bug passes quickly and you can back onto the normal stuff again. It's just been too hot...
OMG I can't believe how many of you are coming down with these nasty puke bugs atm. We've had nothing like that up here touch wood.
Melissa
Kristie, get better soon.....I hope no-one else gets that nasty bug
kristie.my advice from a nursing point of view is to keep up the fluids and rest,unfortunantly there is not alot you can do,dylan will be fine as long as you keep hydrated,but if it persists for more than a few days definantly see the dr.
photo shoot went very well,cindy and i had mcdonalds after so we could catch up.hope the girls make it into the catalouge.
chantelle has a big case of diareahe(sp?)

Thanks heaps guys!
Still feeling really off but haven't thrown up since 4am this morning...I've managed to eat a banana but now I've got heartburn! hehe. Mums coming around to get Louis as Michael had some things he's had to do and I don't feel up to looking after Louis while I'm feeling so crap.
Nikki - So glad the shoot went well! Can't wait to see the girls in there! Glad you and Cindy were able to catch up!
Well, going to watch days of our lives - hehe. I fell horrible though because the house is so messy and dh has no idea but oh well...will have to wait for now.
Def sounds like a gastrobug. If you can get to a chemist Gastrolite or Hydralite are good for re balancing electrolytes. Def keep up the fluids and rest. Nikki, maybe C has a touch of it too? Sending healing vibes to you all....
Oh and can't wait to see the pics! I hope the girls make it in!
Well as usual it was great to catch up with nikki but i have to have a ***** about the cow though!! She looks way to good to have had a baby not long ago!! Its so not fair.. I am going to be the size of a house forever after this one i can feel it!!! Really, she looks fantastic and boy is that harry a little, and i mean little, cutie!! I didnt realise untill i got home though and mum asked me, but i didnt have a hold of the little gem! Next time, he is all mine! tori liked to pat him on his head though.
nikki let me know if there is anything i can do to help out next week, I am free all week pretty much except for wednesday but i am happy to come over and help you get the food shoppping done or whatever, have the kids while you go do something. You name it!
The photos went pretty well, I hope tori gets in, she was a bit nervous at first though so who knows what the pics turned out like. I am just going to have to keep wishing that the two girls get in together!!
Kristie - i cant believe how bad you have hadthis bug! Again, let me know if i can help out at all, im only around the corner!
Tracey - are you better now???
Theres the phone, better get going.... Love to you all
Hi!
Just had another snooze...just feel off know and my kidneys are aching from lack of water...I've managed to have nearly 1.5l now though so I figure I should be feeling a bit better soon...I also managed a couple of pieces of bread...I think I'm just a big sook! hehe. It's really taken it out of me though...I'm just grateful it's no closer to Dylan arriving. I think I'd die going through labour now! hehe.
Cindy - I agree - Nikki looks fantastic! I'm sure you won't be big after - you'll have 2 kids to run after! hehe.
Nikki - I sooo hope Chantelle doesn't have it...I can't imagine how horrible it would be for the kiddies to get....
Trace - hope your feeling better! You haven't posted in a while....
Wow Nikki and Cindy on the girls' photo shoot. Fingers and toes crossed they both get into the catalogue!
Melissa, Sorry to hear you had such a yucky medical. What a nasty man!
Kristie and Tracey - Sending you lots of get well vibes. xx
Hi to everyone else.
All going well here. Not much to report. F still not eating food but seems to love to eat crayons, textas and paint! So annoying! F and I spent the late afternoon fingerpainting so am now about to do damage control. There is paint on pretty much every plant in our back patio. he ha Lots of fun. They are non-toxic, non-staining paints - fingers crossed they are also non-toxic and non-staining to plants and not just humans!
I need to select a birth present for DH's workmate. She wants cot sheets. Does anyone know where I can get some patterned sheets? She's preggers with a boy and said she would prefer not to have plain white sheets as the nursery walls are cream... All I seem to be able to find at the moment are a bit to everyday and not something extra special...
cindy,thankyou again for the georgous tracksuit you bought for harry,cant wait to put it on him.
kristie,wishing you a speedy recovery.
kistie,spotlight is great for sheet sets.
nikki
Kirsty, I find Best and Less fantastic for cot sheets......! They have cool patterns and are cheap but good quality! Myers and baby stores should all stock them too. Goodluck!
Hi Ladies
Krisite I am so sorry if I passed this bug onto you. It is awful. I am glad you have been able to keep some food down recently. Hope you are feeling better this morning.
Nikki Hope Chantelle gets over the runs and that Harry doesnt catch this awful bug
Cindy I am sure Tori looked gorgeous in her photos. I am so hanging out to see if they get in so they can go on the fridge next to Louis. :)
Kirsty LOL about Gus eating crayons etc. I am sure he will work it all out and hang in there you are doing an amazing job.
Kerrie glad you see you and the girls are all well.
Well as for me the bug went away on sunday night. I was ill from 2am saturday thru to sunday dinner time. I lost a good 3 kilo in the process :) but boy did it take a lot out of me. Once again I apologise if I passed this on, I didnt at all feel sick on thursday when we met up.
Jordan had a massive big poo this morning (went all over the sheets as exploded out the nappy). Dont think he has it though as he is fine within himself. Still happy I was miserable when I had it.
We are off to playgroup at 11 so we will see how it is. We have never been to an offical playgroup so i am hoping that the mums are young and not ld and dorky :) ( I am so mean)
Jordan has had a 40 min cat nap and is awake in his cot now so I think I will get us ready to leave as we have to be there in 20 mins.
Take care and I will fill you all in when we get back.
To everyone who is sick ****GET WELL SOON****
dont feel bad tracey,we are serounded by it at the moment,chantelle is fine now and the rest of us have not got it.
let me know how the play group goes wont you.
nikki
well we are home from playgroup and Jordan has flaked it which is nice.
It was pretty good they ladies were nice and the room and facilities were really clean. Most of the kids were a little older than Jordan but there was a 18 and 13 month old so they are pretty close in age.
I think I will contnue to go as he really enjoyed watching the kids and he even drew a picture, which I have placed on the fridge.
So Nikki I think we should cntinue to go and I am thinking 11-1 is a good time as that way you dont have to rush from taking kids to school and Chantelle should rash for a sleep on the way home. Let me know what you think about keeping that time. If you want thursday 9-11 I am cool with that also.
tuesday is fine at that time,cant wait.
nikki
Hi!
My internets been down all day..grrr! Feeling a bit better today. Have managed to eat a bit but my whole body is aching. When I take a deep breath or sneeze/cough my whole insides hurt. I assume it's from the vomitting but I'm not sure....Anyway dh and Louis are both fine...Just cleaned the house this afternoon and cooked dinner and thats enough for me today - I'm wrecked. Hopefully I gain the weight I've lost fairly quickly as I don't think it's a good time in p/g to be losing weight!
Kirsty - sounds like you guys had heaps of fun fingerpainting!! Good luck finding sheets!
Tracey - I'm sure I didn't get it from you - I didn't start feeling sick until Sun arvo. I think it was a food thing from the wedding as I'm the only one that ate something different being veggie...Also I would imagine if it was contagious one of the boys would have had it by now...
Glad you had fun at playgroup! Sounds good!
Time for a new thread!!!
