Babies Born October 2007 #33

Hi all, just a fly by from me sorry the kids have sucked all my enery out of me today, fighting, tantrums, not sleeping, naughty behavious my god...... dh had to go to perth for work, always the way they muck up when im flying solo.

amber good luck ttc how exciting!
Kim- poor Jas i hope her skin clears up soon when the heat subsides a bit
Trish- you must have your scan soon whoo hoo!

dh & i chatted last week about baby 3.... not sure when as yet but its in the pipeline, i want to get back to my pre pg weight first and we want to go on a little hol before falling again too so not too soon but one day maybe!!

Dragonbub - Nope! Im still here your not the only one.... lol. No babies on the horizon for me for a little while!!!

Morniing ladies,

Well i wasn't suppose to POAS till DH got home tomorrow but i caved in this morning and tested and got a :bfp:!! Makes me due end of Sept but my calculations!

I called dh and he said he was suprised that i waited this long!!Lol

YAY!!

WOW Amelia!!!

Thats fantastic - COngratulations!!

Congrats Amelia... :)

Wow im keeping outta this thread....to many BFP's popping up....j/k...so happy for all the preggy mummas...and excited for all TTC!

Thanks guys!! I am abit nervous but excited!! Nervous cause I will have two under 2 by 3 weeks if this once arrives on time and that i have my dates correct. But excited for everything!! lol

Congrats Amelia & Sept 25th is a great day to have a baby ;)

Thanks Mo....Yeah, the 24th is DH birthday!!

Woohoo! Congrats Amelia!!! :confetti:

That's such awesome news :D

Thanks Trish!! Now i just gotta go get stabbed with the nasty needle for a blood test!! Gotta find a good dr up here in mackay!!

Awsome news Amelia :)

Monkey - You aren't the only one not TTC.....I'm thinking about it, but in this weather, I don't want anyone touching me!! lol!!

Well, I just converted Max's cot into his little bed so lets see how that goes....

Can't stay long..this room isn't air-con'd!!!

Hugs for all the mumma's, pats for all the preggo bellys, and smoochies for the bubbas!

Congratulations Amelia! Who knows, if you go over you may have another Octo-bub!I keep telling myself 2 under 2 won't be so bad. At least L'll only be 1 for a couple of months and then I'll have 2 under 3 which sounds better. And for Rhys it will only be a couple of weeks - so not too bad. Are you hoping for one sex in preference of the other?

Okay, anyone else want to confess something???

Thanks everyone for the FB messages. I am now classed as advanced maternal age! DH took me out for dinner last night while the ILs had L o/night. Then flowers and pastries in this morning, lunch out and an afternoon pottering around in the garden with my boys. Not a bad day at all. Colleague at work suggested cake for morning tea tomorrow so might make the birthday last another day.

I'll be in tomorrow to let you all know how the scan went.

Nerida - Thanks darl!! I would love a girl but we are having four....we are stopping after this one then once they are in school we will start trying for 2 more!! I am only 21 so I have plenty of baby making left in me....a football team wouldnt bother me!! Lol....I have a neice now so that is where all my pink shopping goes too...my SIL loves that i spoler her!! Lol

We are coping all this rain from Cyclone Ellie further up the coast.

congrats Amelia! Hoping to be joinging you soon! :confetti:
Nerida HAPPY BIRTHDAY:leap: again! Good luck at your scan! Are finding out gender?

Was thinking us Brisbane girls should get together??? what do you all think? (hehe Nerida thought i should put it on here :))

anyway just a quick one cause SYTYCD is on and its my fav! Will be back later :)

Wow has there been some news since I've been away!!! lol Too much to catch up on!!! :D

Amelia - :confetti: Congrats to you!!! That is fantastic news.... I'm with you after I have a 2nd bub I'm going to wait until Tiera goes into Kindergarten before we have another one, but we will be stopping at two..... I think... I'm a bit hopeless when it comes to kidlings, so we'll see how we go :D

Amber - Good luck TTC.... Hopefully you n I will be doing the belly buddies together again for Nov 09! :crossfingers: I wish you all the best of luck for a short and sweet (and oh so fun!) TTC journey!!!

Saffi - Awww you DH sounds very sweet... My DH is far from romantic!!! hahaha Its lovely that you guys got some time to yourself. I hope all went well with your scan today and you enjoyed seeing your little creation :)

Hello to Trish, Mo, Becky, Kellie and who ever else I may have missed :hello:

I'm really looking forward to meeting all of the Melb ladies on the weekend.... What time was decided??? When DH comes hope I'll get my phone number off him (got no idea what it is!) and give it to someone cuz as of Wednesday I wont have the net (we're slowly making our way to SYD then we're flying out).

AFM - I went on a jet boat with my Brother and his son on SYD Habour... Was freak'n awesome! Had a great time, Looking forward to doing it again sometime with Joshy too. Mum kept Tiera amused for an hr as mum's not into that sort of thing!
Went to the gym again this morning and left Tiera at the Creche... Different ladies today and they didn't seem to be as happy as the ones last week. When I walked back in after the class T was standing near the door just watching it and when I walked in she looked at me and just started crying. There was a lady that walked in just before and she said T thought she was me and started running to her... I think she was just tired, but I almost started crying with her!!! hahaha

OK I'M RAMBLING!!!! Have a great day all

would love to come to the brisbane meet! would be great to see all the bubs again.

Tiff fingers crossed we can be belly buddies! the Speed boat sounded like awesome fun!
Julia woohoo Max ina big bed! How did he go?
Mo Hows cookie going? Will let you know when the book arrives! Have just orderd the hard cover set off ebay woohoo!
Trish how are you feeling this pregancy?

Hope your all cool and hugs to all our bubbas and bellies :)

Congrats Amelia!

Amber - when were u thinking for the Brissy meetup? Is it while I am there? We arrive on the 14th and leave on the 21st? If it isnt then, I'd still be interested in meeting up with anyone who can make it... maybe on the 16th?

Pish - dont think we did decide on a time just yet... maybe 12 - 12.30? I can send you a PM with my number if you like?

Saffi - hope the ultrasound went well

Hope everyone else is well!

yeah was thinking that Kellie! So you arrive the 14th feb? 16th should be good for me! What about everyone else?

Thanks again Amber for lending me the 2 books, It's kinda sad there is no more read lol I really enjoyed the series.

Saffi i also hope the u/s went well.

Pish, Kellie & Trish 12-12:30 is fine by me :)

Amber, yep we arrive in the arvo on the 14th. The wedding we are going to is on the 16th at 5 pm, so as long as its early in the day, the 16th will be good me us! Cant wait to meet some more of you lovely ladies and your bubs!

Mo - Are Kazaraz, Ange and Kim coming too? I can't remember!

whenever is fine with me. i cant wait!

Is the 16th a Monday? Its DH birthday but I think at this point that he will be working anyway so if he is, that will be fine for me too!!

Pretty sure Ange is busy this weekend, I know Kaz was busy moving & Kim is a possibility i think.

I am not moving that weekend, we are moving this weekend, so the 16th works really well for us! Is Collingwood still the meeting place???

Sorry, been popping in every now and then, but busy attempting to pack! More motivation now that the weather has cooled let me tell you. I just need to do something about my very clingy 16 month old!

Amelia - congrats! So there are not many of us in here that are not pregnant now girls?!

I will be back later to post something more substantial. When time and clingy kids permit!

Kaz I hear you on the clingy....I can see teeth, just waiting for them to bust through the gums! Oh and count me in as one of the non-preggo ones....

Although...tomorrow I will know more about what I am going to do about that!! I just have to wait for DH to have a meeting at work.....I'll keep you posted

Hello everyone!!! xo

Hey all

Brisbane girls - weekends or Thursday afternoons are fine with me. Unfortunately I can't do Monday 16 as I will be working :( Maybe next time.......
Amelia - 4 kids! Sounds like you have it all planned out. We'll be stopping at 2. As it is we are needing to move house to accomodate our growing family and DH is talking about getting a larger car. It would be nice to have a lot of kids running around.

Ok, so we had the ultrasound today. Bubs is fine, the risk of Downs is 1 in 5000 (same as if I was a 15 year old!) and we found out we are having.................................. A BABY:doh: They have a policy where they don't test for gender at the 12 week scan. They didn't even look down there and let us make up our own mind. I still think it is a girl. The sonographer had a hard time getting it to straighten its legs so I am thinking I have a modest little girl in there. Oh well only 6 weeks until the next test when we will hopefully find out for certain. I think the due date is now 6th Aug.

im glad bub is healthy nerida. did you check if it has 12 fingers and 12 toes? lol

im still a non preggo but catherine is in 3rd trimester and she is an octo buddies so she is still counted.

Kaz the Vic meet-up is this weekend. The 16th is for the QLD meet-up :)

Saffi so glad the scan went well.

Oh gosh I am really losing it! Dont know weather I am Arthur or Martha at the moment. So much on my plate. I just got back from the doctors and got some good news, the lumps I found in my breast didnt show anything up by ultrasound. The Dr is referring me to the breast specialist just in case, cause she doesnt want to take any chances. But she said that the chance of it not showing up on ultrasound is 1 in a million, so I think the odds are on my side that it is nothing. So now I can stop worrying about that!

Back to packing!

OH and Julia, that was a bit of a cryptic message, does that mean you maybe trying soon or was that about something completely unrelated???

Kv thats great news! So glad it all ok! :hug:
Julia spill!!!!! ;)

Brisbane girls could we do the 15th? Can you come that day Kellie? If not I dont mind coming to meet up on the monday!

Well not much happening today its quite miserable here! Am off to a cloth meet up with some of the girls here! So that will be fun! Anyway better go! Have a lovely day girls xx

I cant make the Sunday but thats fine with me if its better for all of you!

Congratulations Amelia! That is great news, LOL about waiting to test - I couldn't have waited that long either. :dance:

Julia - it sounds as if you might be TTCing soon if something happes at DHs work, is that correct? Fingers crossed for you :pray:.

Kaz - great news about the lump :clap:. You must be so relieved. Take it easy on yourself cos a scare like that can have an impact. I had a recent scare myself and it is not a "comfortable" place to be in and can change your outlook on things.

Saffi - Can't wait to hear if you are having a pink or blue. Do you want a pink one? I can't remember if you said you had tried for a girl :wall: silly me.

As for us - Caden VERY grumpy baby. He was up from 2-4 am the other night again, sooo clingy and grizzly. Even on a good night it takes up to an hour or so to get him to bed. Last night he really screamed and I thought an ant had bitten him or something. He was inconsolable for about 20 minutes which was like he was when he was a newborn! I am sure it is his eye teeth coming in, I hope they hurry up!

Almost everyone in my mothers group is pregnant or currently TTC :( At least there are a few of us that wont be TTCing for a while. I get too jealous! It is not as if I WANT to TTC just yet, more I "want" to want to, if that makes sense? I am looking forward to it though, roll on October.

Well, that's all for me, have a great (and cool) week girls!

Dragon...you got it...just gotta wait till he gets home!

Julia so what happened hun? Oooh please be ttc would love to share it with you :)
Dragon bub, i totally get what you mean about ttc this was my delima too!
Saffi so gald your scan went well! Hope you get find out sex next time!
Brisbane girls what day suites everyone?
Trish mo willow ...have a mind blank! Whoever else i missed hope your all well!
Not muh happening here as usual! Myles is getting more teeth! And we will be on the tww soon! Fingers crossed we have a bfp!
xx

Morning everyone!

Nothing too exciting going on here, just generally feeling crap! Joel went back to kinder yesterday and absolutely loved it, a bit nicer than sending him at the start of last year! He will be going 3 days a week this year for session ranging from 3.5 - 4.5 hours so I get a chance to actually do stuff while he is there. K wanted to stay when I dropped Joel off! He went with us last Friday for the kinder intro day and had a ball playing with all the kids, he was a bit put out when I took him home with me LOL.

Looks like they've given me preggie avvy!

Julia - How exciting about maybe TTC soon! How did you go talking to your DH?

Dragonbub - I hope Caden's teeth come through soon, it's awful when they're so clingy and upset. We didn't TTC #2 until Joel was just over 2 years old, I just wasn't ready yet! A 3 year age gap has been great. So take your time and don't worry about what anyone else is doing ;).

Amber - Hope you had fun at the cloth meet-up! Good luck in your TWW, I hope you get a BFP!!

Karen - That's great news about the ultrasound! It must be such a relief. Good luck with the move!

Saffi - I'm glad the scan went well! Bummer about not finding out the gender :(. Did you get a 2D scan done? If so and you got a side-profile shot you can sometimes tell by the nub what the gender is. Post a pic if you have one!

Mo & Kellie - I'll give that Hawthorn place a call today (if I remember!) and let you know about Sat.

Amelia - Wow, 4 kids sounds busy! But if you space them out like that it would probably work out really well. My step-sister had 3 kids, waited 6 years and has recently had another bub and now wants another one to keep it company!

Nic - It must be hard to manage the boys by yourself when you DH is away. Is he back now?

Hi to everyone else!

Trish LOVE your new Avvy! Look at that bump :) xx

Thanks Amber! My bump is nearly that big already LOL!

He didn't have the meeting....TODAY!! Hopefully! x

Fingers crossed for you Julia! xxx
