A new thread ... yay! Well I am feeling pretty good today and I brought some mints last night and they are doing wonders for my constant indigestion! I just need a plug to stop me going to the loo a million times a night and I will be happy.
We had a great weekend, out to lunch with friends yesterday and then dh took me to Richmond and we had a look at a couple of outlet stores. Pumpkin Patch is huge there and I could have stayed and spent a bucket load of money. In one way a boy would be nice, so I can go on a shopping spree!
Amelia - hope things improve for you and your dh soon, probably doesn't help that you have been sick. Everything seems to get on top of you when you are not feeling 100% !
Trish - you need to start taking it easy! Why do we all think we are supermum's? The bassinette sounds great! We have shared one between my sister's and I, only one of the bubs hasn't use it. So it is kinda sentimental.
Paycyn - glad Kaleb is better, bugger though that one of the other kidlets has it now. Speed recovery to him x
Kim - sounds like your weekend away was just what the doctor ordered, half ya luck! Always appreciate the kids so much more when you have had a break huh
Kate - well done on becoming a sahm again! I take my hat off to anyone who is a working mum, you must be great at juggling that is for sure!\
Celtic - not much difference between us in dates, and I think I might get pushed back to my orginal edd again as well. How are you feeling?
Amber - feeling any better today?
to everyone else I have missed, I was planning on doing heaps of personals, but then I forgot what everyone had been chattiing about cause we have a new thread. So my apologies. Still love you all xx
Now I'm feeling very told off for moving stuff LOL! I can't help it, I am a bit stubborn like that. My mum is exactly the same, it's genetic . We work until we are literally falling apart!
Amelia - Wow, you have great taste LOL! It's such a gorgeous bassinette isn't it? I paid $75 for it and it came with sheets and a gorgeous pink blanket. It seriously looks like it's new . I had the Boori Matilda cradle for K, and although it is lovely, I didn't like the fact that it rocked whether you wanted it to or not! I found it really hard to pat him off to sleep in it because it constantly swayed, so after a day I put him straight in his cot and sold the cradle.
Kellie - Yuck, housework! I'm trying not to look at mine atm, maybe it will just magically get done by itself? I'm more than happy to share my baby shopping tips LOL!
Kaz - Yay for the mints helping! They only make things worse for me . I've heard fruit tingles can work wonders too because they get fizzy.
Saffi - Aww you poor thing . Don't cough on me, I've had my fair share of sickness lately . We have a Phil & Ted's E3 pram which is the older one. It seems pretty good, it's nice and narrow and not to heavy to lift. It's going to be a pain that I can't fit shopping underneath though. The dresses your MIL made sound so lovely . I bet she loved making them!
Trish/Amelia - we have the same bassinette!! How beautiful is it?? I brought mine brand new on sale for $125. I was the same, saw it and had to have it! I love that it's bigger than average so I'm hoping bub will stay in it for longer. I've had three different bassinettes for each bub, hoping this will be the best. DS hated the last one which was a beautiful antique wicker one, but not very practical it turned out so I sold that ages ago. Made lots of money on it though cause we had repaired and resprayed it etc.
DH set ours up in our room on the w/end just so we could see where it fit etc. Going to wash all the bassinette sheets (are you guys using cotton or flanelette sheets??) etc today or tomorrow, crappy weather today so might wait till tomorrow when it's supposed to be sunny. $75 is a GREAT price Trish, I was watching a few on ebay and they were holding their value pretty well, most selling for around $120-140. I have NO idea why people were buying them second hand for that much when they retail for around $150 so I just went and brought a new one!
Saffi - wow, I didn't realise how close behind me you are!!
Trish - nursery pretty much done for now. After boo arrives we'll decorate it properly. A friend returned 3 boxes of stuff yesterday so I went through that last night. So have another load of clothes, sheets, wraps etc to do and also have to wash the car seat cover, rocker cover and bouncer cover...then I think that's pretty much it! Going to make a start on packing my bag this week too. I was a bit worried we wouldn't have enough winter/long sleeved clothes but there were heaps in the stuff I got yesterday so we'll have plenty now. If we have another boy, we have sooooo many clothes that I've already told my mum to tell people no clothes if they ask what to buy the baby as a gift...I'm not expecting many gifts actually for bub #3 but mum thinks I'll still get plenty
Hope all the sick mummies and babies are feeling better soon
And great news on all the tiny bubba scans

Kaz Glad you starting to feel better, & also glad you had a great weekend.
Kate yay for being a SAHM again.
Trish naughty naughty, Hope your feeling slightly better today,
Willow can't believe how close you are to your due date, i'm so looking forward to your BA.
Saffi hope you feel better soon. We have the Vibe & i love it.
Only downside is when they're both in the pram there is no room for bags etc & it can feel heavy.. Overall it's a smooth ride & both my girls love it.
Nothing new here, seems all of us have either a cough(Kodi & I), a Temp & the sniffles(Maddi) & just the full on flu (Phil). The joys of winter!
