Babies Born October 2007 #33

Hi hi ladies!!!
I have been back home for a few days now, but have not been on the net too much, been trying to get this pig sty resembling a house again!!! :)

Thank you so very much to Kellie, Mo and Trish for taking time out (on a VERY freak'n hot day!!!) to come and meet Tiera & I. We had such a great time. I still can't get over how danm hot is was and then the next day we had to go and buy Tiera some pants and long sleeve tops as it was too cool to wear the clothes that I had brought for her!!! lol Melbourne weather I guess! :D I had a fantastic time down there, we went to the zoo, the Chn's Farm, the aquarium, DH got to go to the Casino a few times, we went out to South Melb to see my old school (which they have very recently pulled down :( ), Queen Vic markets.... All the touisty things!!!

Kellie - You talked me into it..... I going cloth.... Well for the next bub I will anyways. I just think it will be a complete waist with Tiera now as in a few months I hope to start TT her.

So our first month of TTC has been unsuccessful. I totally ok with that cuz now I have 2 months to loose my extra tire!!! I want to loose 7-9kg in the next 8 weeks, so I can be at a decent weight before I put on weight again from another pregnancy. For those of you that have no idea what I mean about the 2 months.... Running a Tourist park Dec/ Jan is the crazy time, which would mean DH wouldn't be able to have any time off and he wouldn't get to spend much time at home, so I'd have no support and he'd miss out on so much... So to avoid that Mar and April are out of the qu to TTC! :) I know that I will be much happier within myself to be at a healthier weight prior to getting pg.

Anyways.... Took Tiera to Kinda-gym this morning and on the notice board I saw they were looking for volunteers to help out with the running of Kinda gym and in return you recieve a free gym membership... NICE! :) I have filled out all the paper work, so I'm just waiting to hear now. That would be so great for me cuz atm its not really in our budget to have a gym member ship. I can still have Tiera with me for the 1-2 y/o class and when the older kids come in she can go off to Creche for an hr. So I'm really hoping that all works out.

Speaking of budgets... Post holidays have not really gone to plan. When we go on holidays we by no means go over board, but we have saved plenty in order to do as we please on not worry about the finances too much whilst relaxing. What we didn't account for was everything going wrong when we got home!!! DH put (yet another one of his) phone(s) in the wash and completely stuffed it! There goes $600 for a new phone (was cheaper to do that then pay out the remainer of his plan as it is only a very new phone!), and then dear Podgey Dodge (one of our goregous fur babies) had to go to the vet and get put under to have an X-ray of his front paw.... There goes another $300!!! Thank goodness Dodge does not have a broken foot (which they were sure he did), but he does have perminant tendon damage and may never walk on that foot again. :(

WOW I had too much news, I'm sorry this is soooooooo long!!! I will be back later for all personals!

Take care all

Hi girls, just a quicky tonight and sorry for no pm's ... I havent had time to scratch myself this week. I am still having girl issues. Argh, I didnt know having a miscarriage would screw with my body so much and I am still waiting to get my cycle's back on track. Its just over 7 weeks now and I feel pregnant again, but every test is negative and I had a blood test which was negative. How does this explain my sore boobs, extreme tiredness, cramping and lack of period? I dont know. Its frustrating and I just wish I had the answers. So no conceiving if I am not ovulating, which the doctors thinks I am not. She thinks I have polycistic ovaries, again, and I have to have another scan Friday. She also wants me to go onto the pill to get my periods back and then she is talking about referring me to an obstatrician to go on fertility meds. Considering I have conceived 3 times so far easily, I dont know if I need it or want that. We just want one more baby, I am over it being hard! Sorry to vent girls, but I am frustrated and just want some answers! Hopefully Friday will shed some light on my issues.

Other news in and the most important .... my baby is walking! She has been walking from Bruno to me and then on Monday she just took off. She is wobbly and then claps when she falls over, so cute. She is so proud of herself and we are tickley pink! She bet Mia by about 6 weeks I think, as she was just over 18 months when she walked.

Be back later for personals!

K x

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! Max STILL clinging to my leg refusing to let go!

Kaz You poor thing, just hang in there. My opinion is when you don't 'TRY' so hard, things just happen. Maybe you are about to get your af that's why you feel the way you do....I say just let your body do it's work, if you don't feel like you want to go down the road of fertility meds, then don't....If you have conceived so easily before, I don't see why it won't happen like that again, and meds might just screw your body up more! Hey, I'm no expert. Stay positive and just enjoy practicing! Who knows, it might happen when you least expect it :)

Tiff Sorry to hear about your unsuccessful month! Hopefully it will be different by the time April/May rocks around. I know we are TTC at the mo, but not TOOOO hard...and as weird as this sounds, I really want to avoid a Scorpio baby if I can!!!!! I am a Taurus and typically, these signs do tend to clash a bit! My SIL is a scorpio and sometimes I just want to punch her face in! Ha! I'd also kind of want to avoid Xmas time too, so April seems like a better time for me to TTC! Good luck with the volunteer jobbie too....how cool is that! Also, glad to hear your poochies foot isn't broken (ouchies)

OK so, news....we are DEFINITELY going to Singapore! DH will find out today when they want us to go, and we will be off! ATM I am feeling pretty scared about it.....and more SAD about having to leave my precious Charlie behind! I hope my Mum will look after him! Anyway, looks like the contract will be for 2 years initially and I hope that stays the case as I'd rather Max go to school here. Don't know what it would be like there though if I'm UTD.....Alone (no family and friends) just with DH & Max! I hope that DH tries to be more supportive, coz I'm probably going to be seriously BORED! I know there are probably loads of expats there, and I'll make friends, but there is just nothing like home! We'll just have to see I guess!

Another thing....anyone finding it hard to entertain their toddlers ATM.....I think Max is seriously bored of me! Tell me what 'activities' you do. Yesterday I was struggling and so I pulled out the finger paints and we mixed it with sand...just for something new and tactile....today I was thinking of making playdough, but don't know if Max will know what to do with it, or whether he'll just eat it!

Well everyone have a good day x

Hey everyone!

I had my first appointment at the hospital today and it was with an OB, luckily DH could come so he got to hear bub's heartbeat :D. All is well, my tummy is measuring as it should and my BT's all came back clear. He is inclined to go with the EDD of the 20th of August because of my 12 week u/s, but I put my foot down and said to record it as the 25th LOL! He gave me a referral for my 20 week scan, but he based it on me being due on the 20th so I get to have the scan early yay! I'm booked in for the 1st of April and can't wait! It's at 7:30am so at least I won't spend hours waiting impatiently!!

K has dropped down to one nap a day sadly, he kind of made the decision himself and has refused a second nap for more than a week now. I was enjoying two naps! Oh well, it makes it a bit easier to do things during the day now.

Julia - Congrats on definitely moving to Singapore! That is soooo exciting :D. I find Joel helps entertain K so that helps LOL! K loves playing outside so I take him for lots of walks and play with him in the backyard and sandpit. He's pretty happy to entertain himself out there actually so I usually hang out washing or something while he plays. He loves playdough, he doesn't know what it's for yet, but he loves to squish it in his hands and play with the cutters etc.

Kaz - Congrats on Tay walking!!! I hope your cycle returns to normal soon, it's so confusing when your body doesn't do what it's meant to.

Tiff - I'm glad you had a great time in Melbourne! It was lovely to meet you and Tiera. You definitely got a taste of Melbourne weather with the mega-hot day and then cool day the next day LOL!

Dragonbub - Teething sucks doesn't it?! I hope those two teeth have stopped bothering Caden.

Amber - Such a rude and personal question, but did AF arrive?? Hee hee, sorry to ask, but I'm dying to know if you're UTD or not!

Mo - How are you travelling atm? Wow, just read your ticker and you're 35 weeks today! Where does the time go?

Hi to everyone else! Have a great day :D

Hey all

Been lurking for a while. Keep meaning to post but.........

Julia - that's awful that you can't take Charlie to Singapore. Is that because of the quarantine issues or just because you're likely to be living in an apartment? I'm sure you'll be coming back regularly to see the family and get your cuddle time in.
Also keep meaning to congratulate Maxie on the walking.
Kaz - congrats to Tay on her walking. L was the result of fertility drugs so I've been successful, but as you said you've conceived successfully 3 times before. Sometimes these things just take time as frustrating as it is waiting.
Amber - any news?
Mo - any news?

L's been really clingy of his dummy and cuddlytoy. Also the amount of drool the kid is producing at the moment is incredible. I think all but one of his canines have come through so I am hoping that it won't be long and he'll have all the teeth he's going to get for a while and I can get my happy little boy back.

I'm feeling ok. Still a bit blah but its easing so hopefully maybe only a week or so and I'll be first trimester symptom free. Sleeping a lot better too.

Hi to all the mums and bubs.

Hi everyone! thought it was about time i put my head in again to catch up!
Look at all the Octomums who are pregnant or trying to get pregnant!! And those almost ready to pop!! I am so jealous!!
All day i type reports on ultrasounds and with each one i get a little more clucky!! DH has said not yet and deep down i do agree with him but i want one!!!!!
oh well....patience patience patience hey
Well caitlyn moved up a room at daycare. I am in two minds about it. The b***h who was being nasty to her has left a week earlier...am wondering if my complaint had anythign to do with it...
Trish is K having dramas at night with his sleep? how long is the one sleep he had suring the day?? In the toddlers room they have one sleep a day, on a mat on the floor. And sice Caitlyn moved up we have had nothing but dramas with her sleep at night! Awake for 4-5 hours a night!
one of the other mums said something yesterday and she went back to the babies room for her sleep and while it was still only one sleep i think it must have been better quality sleep or something because for the first time in over a week i had more than 7 hours sleep last night!! YAY!!! Not all in one hit unfortunately but better than nothing!!
Oh - there goes the phone - will bbl for another fix!!

Rebecca - popping back in to comment on C's daycare sleeps. As you know L is at daycare too and sleeps on a mat also. Most days he would do at least 90 mins but usually 2 hours+. We haven't had any problems with his nighttime sleeps directly related to daycare sleeps. I am wondering if maybe the kids in her room only do short sleeps and she's not given the chance to sleep more, or if there is something else concerning her. Is she eating ok/enough? Is she teething? Does she have a dummy/comforter that she needs to sleeps? I hope she settles down soon.

hi all just popping my head in to say i am still alive :)
Tested wednesday and it was a bfn still no AF so will just wait and see!

Will try to get back later and catch up properly! :hug: x

Been thinking.....Moooooo (No not moo as in cow but an elongated Mo!! Where are you?????

It's a me post, promise to read back reply after-wards :)

lol Julia, I was going to post last night but go side tracked ;)
I had an iron infusion yesterday getting my body ready for the birth within the next 5wks, anyways around 5pm i start getting slight back pain but by 8pm it's really bad & i can do anything without it hurting.
Call the hospital to see if they think it might be the infusion just messing with my body & they assure me it's go nothing to do with the infusion and that i should come down to get looked at.
They kept me in last night & wanted me to stay for another day & night but i convinced my OB to let me go home & rest with the promise i would go straight back if the pain got worse or if it becomes more regular again.
Guess long story short they think it's pre labour pains, They're not going to stop me from going into labour but because I'm 35wks IF it does turn into labour they want me at the hospital to keep on eye on Cookie & me. Knowing my luck she'll decide to be overdue & all this pain would of been for nothing.
They also think Cookie is a little porka already weighing around 6p lol

ETA- OK MJ is in bed so i can reply now.
Trish M dropped to 1 day sleep around 12months & at 14-15months she had a few weeks were didn't even have a day nap, I was so glad when she starting having day naps again i never realized how much i treasured that 2hrs of me time.
Not long till your 20wk scan i can't wait to find out what your having.

Kaz yay for T walking.

Julia you must be so excited & nervous. Look forward to hearing about your journey etc..

Saffi hope the 1st tri symptoms ease up for you.

Amber still got my fingers crossed for you & thank-you for the lovely txt ;)

Tiff also sry to hear of your bfn, fingers crossed for next time :)

hi everyone, we are back in Melbourne and it is so cold! We had a great time away, I think Tahlia is wondering what ride she is going to go on or what animal she is going to pat today! I think her fave thing was patting the koalas at Australia Zoo, and also the rides at Dreamworld. And meeting Amber and Myles of course! I'll post some pics on fb later for those of you who are interested

Trish - so glad to hear the scan and OB appt went well... it will be the 1st of April before you know it! Are you going to share the gender with us too?

Amber - bummer on the BFN. It was great meeting up with you in QLD.. thanks again for taking the drive to see us

Pish - it was great meeting you too, that sure was a hot day. In regards to the cloth decision, when the time comes, the ladies in the cloth nappies threads are wealths of knowledge... any questions you have, someone will be able to answer! Bummer about the BFN

Kaz - you poor thing, dont really have any advice but just wanted to let you know that I am thinking of you. Congrats on Tays walking!

Julia - how exciting moving to Singapore!

Mo - not long now!

Anyway I better go, have a tonne of washing to do from our holiday.. talk to you later and HI to everyone I have missed!

Welcome back Kellie! It sounds like you had a great time :). I will definitely be sharing the gender of the baby, there is no way I'd be able to keep it a secret LOL!

Mo - Wow, sounds like Cookie might come early too! I hope you are taking it nice and easy atm.

Amber - I hope AF is still hiding from you ;).

Rebecca - I haven't found K's night sleep has been affected by his drop in day sleeps. But last night it was harder to get him down, it didn't help that MIL dropped in not long after he went to bed and he wanted to come out and be social. She always turns up just after we've put the boys to bed and then of course they want to come out and see her and then we have to go through the whole bedtime routine again :rolleyes:.

Saffi - I hope L pops those teeth out quickly so you can have a break from the drool and clinginess!

AFM - I am soooo sick atm. I've come down with bronchitis again (second time in 10 weeks) and am sick as a dog. I had to go to the GP twice yesterday. The first time I got AB's and I had to go again in the evening because I was having trouble breathing (lots of wheezing), and I got given Ventolin which really helped and I could sleep fairly well. Today I'm not coughing as much but I feel like I've been run over by a truck, I have zero energy. Luckily it's the weekend so DH can help!

K's day naps are becoming tricky since he's dropped a nap. The problem is that I can't give him a nap at the same time every day because of Joel's kinder drop offs of pick ups (it's different every time). So if I try to put him down when I think he should go to bed, he flat out refuses and screams the house down. He used to go down without a peep so this is really hard. In the end when he's tired enough he goes and finds his blankie and dummy and falls asleep on the floor in the loungeroom LOL! I then pop him into bed and he sleeps for 2 or more hours. I just need some predictablitly atm!

Anyway, sorry for my whinge, I'm feeling a bit blah so everything else seems worse IYKWIM!

Have a great weekend everyone! :D

Trish i sure hope she decides to come early, I'm really over it.
The dull aches in my tummy, the bad back pain, the always needing to pee & never being able to rest is really starting to wear me out. Can't even remember the last i slept through the night.
So sorry to hear your sick again, nothing worse than being while pregnant.

Kellie glad you had a good time & the pics on FB are great.
I think I'll take the girls & go for a holiday in QLD after Cookie arrives. Phil wont fly & i don't fancy driving all that way with a baby & a toddler so he can miss out!

Maddi has this new thing where if she's in her room & you walk past it she'll get up and shut the door so you can't see what she is upto in there, She really is a teenager trapped in a toddler body.

Hi popping in quickley while Myles is amused :) Have ashocking headache! We have just got back for a weekend up the dam skiing!

Brisbane girls what day is best for everyone to catch up? I am free anyday but monday mornings? Lets try and organise this soon! :)

Will bbl to catch up :hug: xxx

hi girls, just thought i would pop in for a quick hi. had a bad night with getting tay down, i thought now she was walking she would wear herself out more! she had a small sleep today, which might just mean she is over tired!

mo - i have to say, i dont envy you. this stage of pregnancy is the worst i think. the warmer weather probably doesnt help with your sleeping etc either. i dont know when we are going to get a break. hang in there, 5 weeks to go ...there is light at the end of the tunnel!

julia - wow singapore, what a big change! i admire your courage to make such a big change. we have talked about it and never followed through, yes i am a wuss!

trish - sorry to hear you are sick! i hope that you feel better soon. are you hoping for a girl this time or are you unphased?

amber - i am in your boat with the ttc'ing. no idea what is happening with me and no af for almost 8 weeks now but i had a blood test and no pregnancy either. sigh! will just having to be patient (not a word in my vocab) haha!

hi to everyone else ... i have been keeping up to date with everyone's posts!

Kaz - Sory to hear your body isn't cooperating with you atm. That really must suck. I agree with Minimax, if you don't feel comfortable going onto the fet meds, then don't. Your body will go back to normal after a while and then you'll know its the right time to start trying again. Woo Hoooo for Taygan walking!!! Although when they start walking you have to chase them about, but I do think it does make things a lot easier if you just want to pop to the shops or go for a quick walk... no need to constantly carry them or get the pram out!

Julia - Wow Singapore!!! That is fantastic! It will be great for you to try something different. It will be hard being away from yor family for a long period of time, but I'm sure it will be a great experience for you all. I hope you don't get too bored. I would miss my puppies if I had to leave them behind, but I'm sure your parents will take great care of him. As for entertaining T it hasn't really been a prob for us, but that maybe due to the fact we haven't ben home from hols for too long.

Trish - I hope you're feeling better soon. You poor thing! Nothing worse than getting sick... Even worse when it reoccurs. You must be so excited for your half way scan! Time flies when your having fun. The great thing about being preg, you've always got something to look forward to, a OB appointment, an u/s, setting us the nursary, installing the car seat, having the bub... Ahhhh I just can't wait to do it all again!!! :D

Saffi - Teething is just so horrible on the little ppl. I hope L gets his teeth through soon.

Amber - Good to hear you enjoyed your weekend. I am with you on the BFN thing. Its a shame, but when its meant to happen for you, it will. I wish you all the best for next month.

Kellie - So glad you enjoyed your holiday. I saw your pics on fb and it looks like you would have had a ball. I think T was a bit the same when we got home, expecting to be going somewhere, see something and and play with some new each day!!! hahaha

As for me... T is being quite painful at night for the first real time in her life! Whilst we were in Melb she was in the same room as us (a 1 b/r appartment) so when she woke up through the night she'd normally go straight back to sleep but as she didn't know where she was in the first couple of nights she'd get really upset, start crying and stand up in her cot... So I'd put her in bed with us :rolleyes: BAD MISTAKE!!! It eneded up she'd get into bed with us every night... Soooooooooo now we're home not much has changed!!! I thought she'd just go back into her normal routine like usual.. I can go to SYD and do the same thing, but when we get home alls well. Hmmmmm We'll get there. I have since put a pillow in her cot (yes I know its a no no, but I figured it would make her feel like she was in our bed) and has got her to sleep more, but not yet right through.
So I'm off to the gym in the morning. Really looking forward to it... Looking forward to me being about 7kgs less over the next few weeks! :D

Have a good night all.

Just popping in to say hi, not much going on. Whingy bub, gotta go, be back later to chat.

Hi all

I have a baby with a busted lip. He had a fall at daycare and bit his lip. I got a call from them telling me what happend. By the time I got there he was alright and seemed happy enough. They were worried that he'd knocked a tooth but it seems to be okay.

Sorry no personals tonight.

Oh Saffi :hug: Your poor litle man :hug: Hows number 2 baking?
Mo are you still with us? How is it all going? Maddi is definatley a 15 year old in a todlers body :rofl:
Trish hunny! Hows things?
Tiff I think its ok for themn to have pillows now? Myles is in my bed and I have pillows?
KV any luck with AF?
Dragon bub hi!

So Myles is cutting a molar and eye teeth and a bottom teeth! No wonder he is out of sorts? He is even getting cranky at swimming, which is not like him at all!
Still no AF? But Terri and I were talking and we think I may be having longer cycles? So I am thinking thats why i have been a bit down lately!
Did anyone watch the oscars? Hugh was fab!
x

Hi all!

Still sick, but not as bad as before. DH was home sick yesterday, but lucky him recovers quickly and he could go to work today. I still feel like I've been hit by a truck, but you've just gotta keep going don't you? K has been a bit sick too, but luckily Joel seems to have escaped it. How I'd love to spend today in bed...

Amber - I didn't watch the Oscar's, but I saw snippets of it and Hugh looked like he was hilarious! Still no AF hey??? Well it could be a longer cycle, were your cycles regular before you started TTC? Mine never got regular once AF returned after B'fing. They ranged anywhere from 24 - 45 days! Maybe your body is still adjusting?

Saffi - Oh no, poor L :(. I sympathise, K cut his tongue really badly a couple of weeks ago, it was awful. How is he today?

Dragonbub - Hi! Is Caden still whingy from teething? I hate teething!!!!

Tiff - I hope Tiera settles back to her old routine soon! K is going through a rough patch atm because he has dropped down to one nap. He is making a fuss at nap time and bedtime now which he never used to do. Last night he carried on a treat, screaming and carrying on, so I went in to him (after going in there once before) and told him to go to sleep and that I'm not coming back in again. He carried on as I was leaving so I repeated in my best firm "mum" voice (LOL), "I'm NOT coming back in, now go to sleep!". As soon as I shut his door he went silent. It was hilarious! I know he's not crying over anything serious, he's just trying to get me to take him out of bed the little cheek. Hopefully Tiera & K settle down for us both soon!

Kaz - It seems a few of us are having trouble getting our bubs down to sleep atm! We are happy to have a boy or a girl. Our boys are so cute that we wouldn't mind another! If it's a girl it would be nice too just to help even out our family!! I am outnumbered by boys, even our dog is a boy LOL!

Mo - Hee hee, Maddi is so cute! How are you holding up?

Hi to everyone else!

Still here, still in some pain & since this may be the last baby for us i guess i should suck it up & try to enjoy the rest of the pregnancy, only 4wks & 2 days left i don't even want to think about going over lol

Trish - we are the same as in what we have next time, I kind of think another girl would be great! but we would be happy with a boy, i think it would be nice to balance out the sexes in out family.

Amber - no sign of af, 8 weeks now. had another bloodtest and still no pregnancy, i have no idea what is going on. feel pregnant, have all my classic symptoms. booked in to the the gynie next month to sort it out.

Mo - yeah suck it up baby ... its all over so quickly when the baby comes along and you can only reflect. it doesnt make the last few weeks any easier. ouch ... i feel your pain! lol

Saffi - ouch porr l ... now they are toddling dont they just become little people covered in cuts and bruises. tay is shocking at the moment, bruises everywhere. i am sure people must wonder what we do to her ... but she is just so wobbly atm.

Tiff - ah the good old bringing them into you bed trick! we like you have done the same thing recently and tay has turned into a monster because of it. you think one or two nights wont matter but they are smart cookies and she has not gone to her own bed without putting up a fight since we did it! not good.

hi to everyone else. hope things are sunny in your life!

ps the fires are back, so sad. we got a call to say narre east was on alert and we are on the border of that and narre north so we got a bit freaked. packed the car just in case, but the wind changed and took the fire away from us. which is a good thing for us, but not the other people affected. when will it end?

Hi everyone

Just a quick hello...haven't read back....will BBL!

xx

Mo - It is hard isn't it? on the one hand you are so uncomfortable and want your body back, and on the other you are trying to treasure every moment! It is not fair really, but I guess nature designs it in such a way that when you are ready to not be pregnant, that is when the baby comes.

Kaz :( about the fires. I am not sure what the weather is doing over there but some rain would definitely help. Sending rain vibes your way! Lucky that the wind changed for you, it must have been scary! I hear you about the other towns affected, it is very very sad.

Trish - yeah he is still a bit grumpy, but getting better. He has had a cold the last week as well which made sleeping tricky (he sucks his thumb so can't breath out his mouth). Last Friday I went to a hens night, I was already an hour and half late by the time I got there and then DH called to tell me to come home cos Caden wouldn't sleep. I got home at 10 and put him in the ergo where he fell asleep in 2 minutes :rolleyes:.Men!

Boomba - I hear you on the teething! Wow, molars, eye teeth and others, poor Myles. I think the eye teeth have bad nerves that make their whole face ache? The poor things. My boss has a sore tooth at the moment and he is the biggest whinger. I suggested bonjela and told him to suck it up ;). At least he is not growing 4 teeth.

Saffi - poor bub! A busted lip hey? At least he was consolable. It is hard knowing that they were hurt and you weren't there for cuddles. Still, it is only a small thing and it wont be the last time it happens :wall:.

As for us, like I mentioned, its been a tough week with colds and teething. We are off to Circe de Soleil (sp?) tonight so that will be a nice break for DH and me. We dont' get a hell of alot of time together these days (of course) so it will be a nice "date". MIL is looking after C so we will be baby free!

Hope everyone is having a great week?

Well ladies I think Cookie may be making her appereance sooner rather than later.
Went to the toilet & there was blood & mucus no contractions yet, but i'm getting some mild cramping.
Probably just another false start but thought i'd let you know in case this is the real thing!

Ooooh Mo!!!! Sounds like your show to me! I reckon Cookie is going to make an early debut too. Good luck and keep us posted!!!

Mo How excitng! Are you a bit nervous that she is coming early??? :hug: Let us know how you go! xx

Mo - how exciting! I cant wait to see your birth announcement! Labour Vibes to you! Good Luck!

Hi to everyone else!

How bl00dy exciting Mo.....pardon the pun! :) Good Luck xo

Still here nothing really happening yet, lost more of my what i'm guessing is my plug. No more bleeding just chunks of bloody mucous(tmi sorry).

Amber not really nervous as i know she is a good size. Knowing my luck it's just another false start.

Good luck Mo, thinking of you babe!! :hug:

Oooo Mo, how exciting. Sending you labour vibes

Mo - exciting, definately sounds like a show so who knows it may just be time! Good luck if so xx

Still here & apart from the mild cramping which I've for a week now nothing is happening *sigh*
Seems like Maddi is coming down with something she has a temp, gone off food, drinks & she's sleeping a lot.

Hi everyone

Still haven't had a chance to read back so I'll just HAVE to talk about myself :) haha

Hope everyone is happy and well....Mo especially you ATM! and any other preggo bellies! Hope those TTC are going well too and taking your elevit!! ha!

We have been SOOO busy this last week. Charlie was in a show last weekend so have been busy with that. Very happy to report that DH is being MUCH better with Max and can now handle him going to bed without him ringing me 5 mins down the road telling me to come back! The bond between them is getting much stronger these days too which is so nice to see. We've been to the shops, parks, swimming, gym (even though he still hates it and the ladies take him to the shops instead!) and Charlie is in another 2 shows this weekend and DH is going to Sydney....ahhhh!

We are still supposed to be going to Singapore but we STILL don't know when (this is driving me insane) DH & his boss have been SOOOOO busy (in the mining game and work has picked up again) so they haven't had a chance to sit down and discuss the when's and what's of it all. I'm just hanging to know coz I think we are going to put off TTC till we get there, which I think will be April/May (just after my 30th....eeeek). Not to mention gotta rent the house, get furniture out, get Charlie comfy at my Mum's for a couple of years...so much to think about and do!

Since I've been off the pill I've been feeling so much more normal. More tolerant, and less run by my emotions and having a cloudy head....it's great. Tell you what though I'm so clucky it's not funny! I keep seeing pregnant women and babies everywhere and because Max is being more fun and sleeping through the night (although sometimes he calls out for me to help him find his dummy...Mumma Mumma...CUTE!) in his big bed it's all contributing to my cluckyness and everything.

Well anyway, hope that sparks some more conversation in here! Take care my friends!

Hey everyone! Just a quick post from me. We're leaving tomorrow for a week's holiday so I just wanted to say goodbye for now :). I'll probably be on BB on and off in passing before we go, but I'm not sure if I'll have time to sit down and post. I'm still feeling really sick, but my nose isn't as blocked as it was so hopefully that means I'm on the mend.

Mo - I hope Cookie arrives soon to give you some relief! If she arrives while I am away please SMS me to let me know! (Only if you're up to it of course ;)) I'm dying to hear your news :D.

Hi to everyone else! Sorry for no more personals, my head is in a fog and I really should be bringing the washing in right now!

Mo - you've been very quiet... are you still around???????

Trish - might be too late, but have a terrific week away!

Not much new with me, got a few things on this weekend, so will be quite busy for a change! Our social life has really slowed down since Tahlia came along!

Have a good weekend everyone, and lets hope a BA comes from Mo soon!

Yep unfortunately lol Haven't been posting because i have nothing happy or cheerful to post.
I think I'll still be here in 5wks time without Cookie.

Trish of course I'll txt you, I'm more than happy to txt anyone who wants to know about Cookie's arrival :)

Maddi has another throat & ear infection and is back on Anti-b's. It's her 2nd time this year, wish i knew why she keeps getting them.
I'm off to feel sorry for myself yet again, would be nice if all this cramping & back pain would finally turn into something it's so darn frustrating & draining!

Trish hope your having a nice time away and feeling better! :hug:
Julia woohoo charlie! He is the most gorgeous dog! Will you be able to take him wiht you to singapore?
Kellie so hows it feel being home and back into the normal stuff?
Mo aww hun! Cookie will come when she is ready but I bet its very frustrating! :hug:
