Hi everyone! Sorry it's been so long since I've posted in here :redface:. I've been a bit lazy the past week. All is going good with us. K is having awesome sleeps atm which is wonderful, he has been sleeping in until after 8am some mornings, bliss...I think he's cutting a tooth atm, hopefully it explains the crankiness, drooling and finger constantly in the mouth! I took him to a baby market yesterday morning and they had a baby animal farm, K loved it :). He kept pointing at each animal asking "what's that?", it was very cute!
It's our 7 year wedding anniversary today. DH is taking me out for dinner tonight, he won't tell me where though! It's kind of nice to be surprised :). My mum is going to look after the boys, I'm looking forward to some kid-free time!
Dragonbub - Wow, you sure have lots going on atm! How exciting building a house!!
Mo - How are you holding out atm? I hope you're feeling a bit better this week.
Nic - Congrats on Nixon being TT'd! And how gorgeous that Tyron has been trying too :)
Kellie - How is Tahlia going with the CP? Hopefully it is clearing up for her the poor thing.
Saffi - I can't believe you're 19 weeks today!!!
Julia - Sorry AF arrived, I hope her visit has ended already. All the best this month!
Celtic - We are definitely stopping at #3! Hopefully the Clomid works for you and you don't have to use IVF.
Amber - How are you going preggie lady? How are you feeling?
Hi to all the other Octo mums - Willow, Amelia, misskate, Becky, Kim, ummm....having a preggie-brain moment...and to any I've missed! Hope you're all well :D
-
hi everyone
wow - its has been quiet in here
Not much happening with us, stuck at home cause of Tahlias chicken pox. She is coping pretty well with it, I dont think its bothering her too much. Some of the spots are starting to scab over now, so hopefully she wont be contagious for too much longer
Trish - Happy anniversary! Its our anniversary on Friday, only 5 years for us. We are going out kid free too on Sat night to the Conservatory - I can't wait! How long till your scan?
DB - good luck with the house
Nic - that is quite strange, I thought once you had it once you were fine! My blood test results came back, and I have immunity so I didnt need to get the vac
Anyway, gotta go and do some housework while Miss T is asleep
Hi to everyone else!
Mo - how are you? labour vibes!
-
Still here & feeling very very over it.
Keep telling myself she has to come out some time, Guess it's only 3wks at the most.
Will BBL for personals :)
-
:hug: You poor thing Mo. I'm sending a truckload of labour vibes your way. I went 8 days over with J and it SUCKED! K was 5 days over, but I was prepared for going late again so it was easier to deal with. It must be hard going further than you did with Maddi and being so unwell too. More hugs :hug:.
Kellie - That's great Tahlia seems to be over the worst of it. And yay for going out on Saturday night!
-
Trish - congrats on the 7 years hun, are you feeling itchy at all?
Kellie - Happy 5th anniversary too hun, what a lovely thing to celebrate. It has been 4 years for us, but this year marks our tenth year of being together.
Mo - Labour vibes hun!
Gotta go, DS in shower and DH whistling for support :wall:
-
Happy annaversary Trish & Kellie! well not trish & kellie but ykwim!!
Mo- i hope cookie doesnt make you wait much longer, sending you loads of labour vibes!
-
Labour Vibes Mo! I was 9 days over with Max and by that stage I would sit in the spa and try and cook him out....it didn't work!! GOOD LUCK!!
Hi everyone else too.....sorry I will be back tomoz...I just wanted to say a quick hello and sorry for being quiet...I've just been SO busy lately! With Max being so much better with sleeping and everything in general I've been having so much more time to myself and having FUN!
Take care everyone xo
-
Well my OB goes on holidays April 1st so hoping he agrees to get things going if she isn't here at my 40wk appt.
Think I'm more disappointed because i honestly thought she would of been here by now considering all the crap I've been through since 35wks.
Trish Hope you had a great night & Congrats on making it to 7yrs!
Kellie Happy 5yrs for Friday. Hope Tahlia is over the CP soon.
Julia Might have to try & cook her out if she doesn't start co-operating. It's so nice when the toddlers learn to love their sleep, glad Max is giving you some you time now.
Hi Nic & everyone else i missed.
Maddi got her top 2 molars at the same time, hoping that explains the extreme tanty's she's been having lately. Everything is going well other wise with her.
-
Morning!
Had a great night out with DH last night, he took me to a really nice Italian restaurant. The food was sooooo nice! I haven't had good food like that for ages. The boys had a great time being looked after by my mum. She is awesome with kids and they all just love her. She and Joel had made all kinds of crafty things by the time we got home which he proudly showed off to us. K was a good boy and went straight to sleep when she put him down :)
Mo - Eek, those molars are awful when they come through! Hopefully Maddi settles down a bit now they're through. Here's hoping Cookie makes her appearance before your OB goes away.
Julia - How awesome that Max's sleep is going so well! It must be an age thing because K's sleeping is just getting better and better too atm. Yay for having some time for you and having fun!
Nic - Thanks for the congrats! It's hard to believe it's been 7 years already!!
Dragonbub - LOL we haven't had that itch yet! I think having kids and having another on the way has kept that itch away!! DH & I are both determined to make our 7th year our best year yet :D
Ooh, I forgot to say hi to Pish yesterday when I was listing the Octo mums! Hi Tiff! Hope you and Tiera are well, make sure you come in and let us know what you've been up too!!
Hope you all have a lovely day :D
-
Hey Trish - glad your night went well. You are lucky to have a mum thats' great with kids. Both the mothers, MIL and my mum are pretty hands-off when it comes to Caden :(
Mo - at least there is an end in sight, even if it is slightly further than what you hope. I guess the thought of going 42 weeks would just be too much. Still, any time really from here on in would be nice huh?
Minimax - thats great about Max's sleeping. I hang out for Caden's sleep times just to get stuff done. As it is, the house is such a mess at present because of uni stuff. It seems there is not enough time to do everything, so eventually it takes its toll. Big clean up this weekend I think.
Hi everyone else. How are all the pregnant ladies? And everyone else of course!
We are doing much better. Caden seems over his bug now and is very happy, he has just learned how to kiss and it is so cute, he comes up to you, puts his little lips out, and waits. His understanding is going ahead in leaps and bounds, and he is getting pretty good at the potty too.
Well, better go, the munchkin is trying to climb into my lap - and he has no nappy on!
-
Morning!
Sorry I have been MIA! Have been so sick! No morning sickness....ALL DAY sickness bleurgh! Aslo a cold and a child who doesnt sleep so i am a little on the cranky side :(
Sorry no personals but I hope your all well and sending you all lots of love and hugs to bubs and bellies!

Hey ladies,
Sorry I have been MIA but I have been busy packing our lives back up to move back to Brisbane cause DH's boss has cut him back on hours and we have had a pay cut of like $300 a week so yeah!! Haven't been in the best of moods about it but everything has been organised to move back on the 16th-18th of next month. We are doing it ourselves this time instead of removalist cause we found a truck we can rent for $165 per day cause they are getting work done on it in Brisbane so we are kinda doing them a favour at the same time. So it will only be like $800 to move back instead of like $2500 we paid to get up here!!
TRISH - When is your next scan?? Can't remember if you are finding out the sex or not?? What are you hoping for?? What ws the BPM at your last scan?? HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TOO!!
AMBER - Are you having a dating scan or you just waiting till the 13 week mark??
MO - Sending you some LABOUR VIBES!!!
Anyone know if Ange has poped yet?? She is due around now sometime isn't she??
DRAGONBUB - Good luck selling your house and good luck for the promotion!! Fingers crossed for you!!
KELLIE - How are Tahlia's CP's coming along?? HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TOO!!
JULIA - Do you have a definate date on when you are to leave for Singapore yet??
AFM, I have been feeling very good since finding out I am PG....just been real tired but can't sleep at night's so go figure that one out!! Once we get back to Brisbane I will go buy another body pillow. Hopefully that will help.
Well to anyone I missed.....HI!! Hope your all well.

Monkey - congrats on the BFP - I can't remember if I had done this already! Everyone is getting BFP but me :( we should be TTC in August sometime, so not long anyway, but everyone will have had their bubs by then! LOL.
Boomba - same for you, congrats!
Not much going on. Heading down south to visit sis today so had better go. Funny - DS did a big poo this morning and DH cleaned it up. Then he disappeared upstairs to do stuff on the computer, then when he came down he realised he had a big blob of poo on his hand :lol: so funny!
TTFN
-
DB - DH does that all the time too!! Isn't it so funny when it happens to someone else. Lol.
Thanks for the congrats too!!

Yay Mo - sending you heaps of labour vibes and hoping that it is a quick delivery.
Amber/Trish - as soon as you hear from Mo post so we can find out.
AFM - scan tomorrow morning at 8am so hopefully bubs will reveal him/herself and we can get preparing for this bubs. Any thoughts on what we'll be having?
Nothing much to report on at present.
I'll pop in tomorrow night to let you all know my news.

Mo - :leap: woohoo! I'll be away over the weekend but look forward to coming back and seeing your news. Wishing you an awesome labour babe, enjoy meeting your cookie at long last!!
Saffi - I'm saying pink for you.

Oooh Mo, how exciting!!! I can't wait for that text! And yep, I'll definitely come in here to let everyone know (unless Amber beats me to it ;)). Do you have anyone organised to post your BA? If not, let me know & I'm happy to do it :D. I hope it all goes beautifully for you, and hooray for finally meeting Cookie!
Dragonbub - Ewwww @ your DH LOL! That's disgusting...
Saffi - I am sooo excited you have your scan tomorrow! I can't wait to find out what you're having!
Hi to everyone else! Not much going on here so I won't bore you with my boring tales LOL!
-
Saffi Hmmm I'm thinking Pink, I can't wait to find out what your having.
DB I agree with Trish Ewww lol.
Thanks everyone it feels nice to have a day set, I can actually enjoy the last 2 days now i know the end is so close.
Trish haven't even thought of a BA, if you want your more than welcome to post it :)
-
Yay Mo - so excited for you!
Trish - glad to hear you had a nice night out and I'm glad the boys behaved
Amber - hope the 'all day' sickness ends soon! I cant really sympathise cause I never had it with Tahlia! I'm sure I'll cop it next time!
MonkeyMan'sMummy - Ange popped today! She had another little girl, Saskia!
Saffi - good luck with the scan, I'm predicting girls bits!
Thanks everyone for the anniversary wishes
Tahlia is much better today, took her back to the doctors cause I was worried about some runny nappies and she was also pulling her ear a lot which made me worry that she had an ear infection, but it seems they are both teething symptoms. And she is no longer contagious so I can leave the house tomorrow! Yay!
-
Kelli hun so glad your beautifull girl is feeling better! :hug:
Saffi good luck with your scan hope all is well with bubs!

Ange- congratulations on the safe arrival of baby Saskia! you have done so well with everything you've been through in the last month
Trish- glad your night was nice!
-
hi girls, sorry i have been mia for a while .. so much going on and i guess i havent felt like being on here for a while now. but i thought i would see what everyone is up to and fill you in on what is going on. firstly i have been diagnised with polycystic ovary syndrome, secondly i have to have more tests, but we will start fertility treatment towards the end of april. since the m/c i have had no period, i am not ovulating and basically we cannot have any more kids unless we go on fertilty meds. bit of a shock more than anything and its made us do lots of soul searching, but the one thing we both agree on is that we would regret it if we didnt give having another baby a red hot go. my dh has to have tests as well before we start treatment.
saffi - good luck with your scan tomorrow, i hope that your baby turns out to be healthy and i am sure you will be happy with a boy or girl. probably after two boys you are thinking what would you do with a girl anyway? haha
mo - good luck with your impending arrival. very exciting times ahead for you and your family.
hi to everyone else, sorry i am not replying to everyone but my eyes are sore as and its way past my bedtime. we went out for dinner tonight and i had a ****tail which actually went straight to my head. cheap drunk i am!
hope you are all well xx
-
Nickers - I am due the 25th of September...a day after DH's birthday!! And rhys doesn't turn 2 till the 18th of Oct so I will have 2under 2 for a couple of weeks. We were thinking today that if we were too go early 09/09/09 would be a cool date for a birthday!! Lol.....
-
09/09/09 would be a cool birthdate!
when i was pg with Nixon i was due 02/06/06 so dh wanted him to be born 06/06/06! however having a mind of his own instead of being born on the devils birthday he was born on EASTER MONDAY 17/04/06! (stuffed that plan up lol)
kaz- so sorry to hear u have PCOS, its releiving that now you have some answers and can work towards having another bub, i hope you guys dont have to go through any more heartache to get that sticky little bub.
-
Hey all!
Kaz - I'm so sorry about your PCOS :hug:. My friend has PCO and fell pregnant very quickly with her DS with clomid, hopefully you can get the right treatment for you.
Amelia - I was thinking it would be cool if this bub came early and had the birthday 07/08/09, but my history of having bubs go overdue isn't making me very optimistic LOL!
Nic - That would have been such a cool birthday for Nixon! How easy would that be when filling out forms?
Amber - All day sickness sucks :hug:. I had all day sickness with K, but luckily it only lasted between weeks 7 - 9, with Joel I had plain 'ol m/s, I always felt better by lunch time. This time no m/s, but I had nasty indigestion and hearburn instead. Lucky us hey? I hope you feel all better soon :hug:.
Kellie - I'm glad Tahlia is getting better, it must be nice to be able to go out again :). K gets diahrrea when he teeths, it's horrible!
Mo - It would be my pleasure to post your BA! Good luck tomorrow, I'll be thinking of you all day! What time are you booked in? I hope I hear my phone when you text!
Saffi - Where are you??? Did you find out the flavour of your bub today??? I'm DYING to know!
AFM - I'm feeling pretty good these days, I have much more energy than I did in the first tri. I'm tired today though because I had an upset tummy that kept waking me up all night. I think I shouldn't have had that big slice of chocolate cake just before I went to bed LOL! K is good, teething his canines atm so we're having a fair bit of crying and carrying on during the day, but it's managable.
Have a great weekend everyone :D
-
Here I am!
I had the scan and the baby is very healthy and doing all the things that babies do. For those of you that thought PINK, you were......... RIGHT!
WE ARE HAVING A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I still can't believe it. I was so sure we were having another boy. We had practically settled on a boy's name. Now have to go back to the drawing board and choose a girl's name.
We got some great face photos of our little princess so I will upload some.
Went out at lunchtime and bought 2 little pink dresses. There is no way that I am going to recycle L's hand-me-downs on her.
Anyway, DH and I have a L free night so we are going out to celebrate.
I'll be back for personals tomorrow.
-
:cheer: WOOOOOHOOOOOO Saffi!!!!!! :cheer:
Congratulations on your little girl!!! How lovely for L to have a little sister, awwwww....I'm soooo happy for you!!! (Can you tell? LOL!). Yay! Thanks so much for sharing, you have made my day :D
-
Saffi that has made my day too! YAY for PINK!
Trish - Max gets the worst bum when teething too.....he just cut a molar (I was surprised actually coz he hasn't been that bad) but his bum got RED RAW, he would be in so much pain and crying when I'd change him...poor monkey!
Kaz - Sorry to hear about your PCOS....that sux big time. At least you know now though and you can get on to making more babies! Albeit with some help. You are lucky at least you have two gorgeous girls already.
Amber - Found your remote yet!!? x
AFM - Still no word on Singapore. The longer it takes them though the longer it will take to get there. I'm just worried about having to rush around, but hopefully the HR people at DH's work will sort out most of it. I'll have to live with my Mum prior to going but have to wait for my sister to move out (who has just finished building a house so not long now) before I can go there. Mum is having Charlie too so Andrea (sis) has to take her 3 dogs with her first!!!! (we are dog lovers...clearly :))
Max is going well...walking / running at full speed with a few tumbles still. I'm loving it. His energy is being burned FAST! He is much more fun too....apart from around 6pm when he wants DH to come home so we can have dinner together. He loves his Daddy at the moment. Bit sad coz DH is going to Hong Kong next week so we are definitely going to miss him a lot this time. Max hasn't really cared much in the past.
Well I think I've gabbed on enough for now. Love and hugs to everyone, preggo or not! Can't wait to see Mo's BA tomoz!
-
Kaz so sorry you have PCOS. My best friend has it so i know how it must feel :hug:
Saffi congrats hun! Terri is having pink too! So fingers crossed we have pink so we can all buy new pretty clothes lol!
Jules! I did find the remote! After we went and bought a new DVD player :rofl: Aww hope your not too lonely when Dh goes away!
Trish thanks hun! I am just so over feeling sick! I dont even leave the house which is really unusal fro me and have no energy to run around with Myles! It makes me so sad :(
Not much happening here! Still sick bluergh! Supposed to be going to a hen party tomorrow at the races but if i feel like i did today I will be staying home :(
xx
-
Just popping into say Congrats Saffi, How exciting a little sister for L :D
Trish going in at 7am, but who knows what time it will actually start.
-
Good luck Mo!!!!!!! Cant wait to hear from you guys tomorrow! :hug: :hug: xxxxx
-
-
Just popping in to make sure you all know Mo had Cookie this morning! Her BA is here: https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...1st-march.html
I saw a photo of her and she is just beautiful!!
I've been out all day so I didn't get to do the post myself, I'm glad someone did though!
-
Trish did she tell you a name at all??
-
Amelia - I just sent her a congrats text about 30 mins ago and asked what her name was and she said they are still deciding
-
Yay Mo!!!!! Well done on the drug free birth. Look forward to hearing all the details.
Kaz - at least you have a diagnosis to work with now. L was a Clomid baby so it's certainly possible to have a baby on fertility drugs and PCOS.
Amber - I had to laugh about the remote. L hid one of ours and DH and I looked everywhere (under couches, in other rooms etc - all the usual places), only to find it in the basket of his trike.
Pass to to Terri my congratulations on her little girl. I know they were hoping it would be a girl.
Sorry you're feeling bleurgh!. On consolation is that it usually does pass and is a sign that everything is healthy.
BBL as L is demanding my attention.
-
congrats nerida on your pink bundle, how very exciting for you!
