    Yeah I am lucky and there is no sight of him dropping it either. I dread the day that he drops down too one sleep.

    He is now weighing.....WAIT FOR IT.....DRUM ROLL PLEASE.......... 15 KG's!! He was 10kg by 4 months old so he has definately slowed down. By the time xmas came around in 07 he was in 0's at 2 months old on the verge of going into 1's. He is in 2's in his tops now but 1's in the bottom's cause he has stumpy legs like mine.

    Question for those of you with two kidlets......When I go into labour and have my stay in hospital, what did you do with the lil one you already had at home??

    JULIA - When do you actually leave for Singapore??

    Amelia - wow, I thought I had a heavyweight at 12kg! LOL. It's also taken him months and months to go from 10kg to 12kg, so he's slowed right down too. Still in 0-1s here though.

    I went into labour with DS at about 7.30pm at night - very convenient cause DD was alseep in bed! So DH and I went down to the hossy to see what was happening and my mum stayed at home with DD. I was in a bit of denial that it was the real thing, so when the midwives told me I would be staying and would be having my baby that night, DH frantically went and called his mum to go to our place and stay with DD because I wanted my mum with me! LOL. So they did the switch, I had DS at 12.45pm that night and after an hour or so DH and my mum went home so everyone could get some sleep. I only stayed 36 hours and DH, my mum and MIL looked after DD amongst the three of them.

    I wasn't opposed to DD coming into the delivery suite if I happened to go into labour during the day, but there's no way I would have woken her at night.

    This time with 2 at home, I'm probably going to stay in hospital a bit longer, 2 or 3 days max. I will have my mum here again and between her, DH and MIL, they'll sort out the kids while I get to know bub and hopefully get a bit of rest before going home.

    Question - are any of the other preggie bellies still b'feeding in the 2nd tri or further? I'm finding it sooooo uncomfortable feeding L at the moment, especially on my right side because I have feet stuck under my ribs (bub's not L's )and it's sooooo uncomfortable

    I discussed it with my mum over breakky this morning cause we are staying here till we move this weekend and she suggested going in on a friday and having the c/s and dropping rhys off at daycare once i get him booked into one and she can pick him up that night and look after him for the weekend and I will come home on the sunday sometime!! I would be totally happy with that. She is a very smart women....Never thought of it like that .... lol!!

    Hello again ladies,

    I can't beleive how much I had to read to catch up on everyone and I was only in here yesterday arvo! hehehe
    Day sleeps - Tiera has one but could do with two. She is up at 7ish and goes down at about 11 she'll sleep anywhere from 1.5-3 hrs. when she only has 1.5 she desperately needs another by late afternooon, but I refuse to put her down any later than 3:30 as then she wakes too late and is up half the night. As selfish as it may sound, nights are for me time and hubby wifey time so I don't want her up until late. If she has a good night sleep and a decent day sleep then she is right as rain. If I can hold her out for a nap until 12/1ish it is so much better, but not always doable.

    I think it is just so gorgeous having so many pregnant people and brand new babies around here. Most of you seem to be getting all organised for your new additions... It is such an exciting time for you all!!!
    Tiera went back to swimming this morning. I didn't take her the first term back, so she loved it! DH's grandparents are here atm so I took them along to watch, which they loved.

    Well not much really to report... Tiera had another terrible sleep last night. Our smoke alarm battery has been low and beeps at us through the night and thats whats been waking her up. I get soooo mad as DH needs to bring over a ladder to reach it (we have a really high roof and we're both shorties!), but during the day it stops beeping and we forget about it. Last night I lost my cool and wanted to bang my head against the wall! lol DH had the battery replaced before I even got up this morning! lol God love him!!!

    Ok ladie well I hope you all have a great day

    Mo - I hope everything is ok with your mum and you get the info you are needing.

    Take care all

    KIM - My BP has been high since day dot and we have it under coontrol now but if I get GD again they said that it would be a definate c/s then cause the two don't mix with 1. a scar and 2. whatmy blood pressure might rise too.

    Wait to get into see another Ob/Gyn to get a second opinion.

    Wo...chatterboxes!

    Max has 1 nap.....he wakes at 6:30am (wish he'd go just a little longer) and I give him lunch at 11:30am and push him through to 12 for a nap...he usually sleeps for about 2 hours....1 hour on his elmo couch and the other lying on me while I catch up on TV shows!! I know how slack!

    It really is nice 'seeing' all the new babies around here and hearing that more may be on the way....We are trying when you aren't trying IYKWIM! If it happens then YAY, if not, then next time!
