Trish how did the rest of weekend go? Did the boys come back over-tired & cranky?
Willow how are you feeling? Hope nobody got too sick.
Nothing much happening here, Had my iron infusion on Sat. Hoping by the weekend i'll be feeling a lot better.
Both girls are wellish, K keeps waking up at 3am because her nosed is blocked & M is doing well except for the sniffles .
The boys had a great time away, it was a 4 hour trip there and they did really well. Both are surprisingly not feral and overtired today! Only their mum is LOL! I had a terrible night's sleep, I was so uncomfortable and lay awake for a lot of it so I am the cranky one today . My belly hurts SO much! Bub kicks non-stop and it really hurts sometimes, then I have K coming up and whacking/headbutting me in the tummy (he does it out of excitement, not aggression), so I'm copping it from both sides
I had such a nice weekend to myself, I told DH I felt like the Queen of England after my long soak in the bath LOL! I took myself shopping again yesterday just to get out of the house. Chaos of course returned once the boys were home, they were happy to see me, but hadn't really missed me. They had too much fun to notice I wasn't there! Joel was happy because he caught his first fish
Mo - I'm glad you've had your iron infusion, I hope you start to pick up a bit really soon.
Had a horrid morning this morning. Went back to the GP about the lump under my arm which is still there after 2 courses of Abs. So he has ordered blood tests and an u/sound. Getting a bit worried now
While we were there, L chucked a tanty cause he wanted to get out of his pram and I wouldn't let him...so our Dr (who is great and usually really enjoys seeing L as he's been seeing us since L was born) made a few comments about him being a 'devil' and 'he never stops' and then 'Willow, how do you survive??' All were said in good humour and we both had a laugh but as I was leaving I got really upset about it and cried in the car on the way home Probably silly prg hormones but it did upset me a bit. I know L is a pretty full on, active kid, especially in comparision to his sister, but he's not that bad! I actually had friends tell me last week that my kids were the best behaved kids they know (I don't agree with that at ALL! haha) so he can't be that bad...right?!
Anyway, I got over it...I'm sure our Dr would be mortified if he realised he upset me.
Have an ob apt this afternoon and also going to try to sneak in my blood test before hand. MIL is coming here to mind the kids for me - that's really unusual, she NEVER offers to have them here (which I'd actually prefer) and I can only assume it means FIL cracked it again yesterday cause the kids were at their place . As usual, SIL got wind of the fact that my two would be there so took it as an opportunity to lob on the door step with her two...does it every time, so MIL ends up with 4 kids to look after. We ended up having a great lunch and afternoon with our friends yesterday but got home quite late and I could tell MIL was a bit annoyed. So I wasn't going to get her to mind them at all today but she insisted.
When I got L home I gave him a quick bath and got him ready for bed (an early night cause he hadn't had a sleep ) I noticed his hair STUNK of cigarette smoke and so did his little lion toy (L calls him Raaa! hehe) FIL smokes around the kids all the time despite DH having a go at him several times about it...I cannot stand it! I was tempted to put him back in the bath and wash his hair but he was soooo tired. Luckily we have two Raaa's so I just switched them over until I can wash it.
Have an ob appt this afternoon, hoping Boo is still in a good position.
Mo - Feeling pretty good most of the time. Getting soooo huge and tired though. The kids are both a bit sniffly and coughing in their sleep at night but so far, nothing serious. I was happy to send DD off to preschool today so we'll see how they go. Hope you're feeing better soon
Trish - glad the boys had a fun weekend with their dad. DD caught her first fish at Christmas time up at mum and dads. I think her dad was more excited than she was
willow hun what a day I am praying the lump is nothing and sending you lots of healthy vibes! Itrs funny what sets us off into a crying fit. that sucks about your FIl smoking in front of and obviously very close to your kids!
Trish what a beautiful weekdn you have had. Lucky girl. I wuld give anything to have abath wihtout M wanting to get in lol!
Mo hope the girls get better! Any word on August yet?
Cooking a roast chook tonight and cleaning my house so being a "real" mum today! lol1
xx
Amber i don't think Phil & M will be coming, It's gonna cost a fair bit extra for accom & car rentals.
I'm thinking about holding off on our trip till he has finished his 3 month trial & at least that way we would have more time to save up and we can take M to one of the theme parks as a treat
So at the moment doesn't look like any of us will be coming in Aug
Oh my goodness it has been a long time! I am so slack! I have been popping in from time to time, but I mainly get on to talking with my TTC buddies. Anyways, I'm here now!
I just got back from the Red Centre. Had an awesome trip with DH, DD, MIL, FIL, BIL, SIL and some more extended in laws. Uluru was just amazing! I am really looking forward to our trip to Darwin in October now! Although I must say I am not looking forward to the hot weather!
Celtic - Its weird cuz I been wondering lately how you have been going with little Ryan and here you are! It has been a long time! Congrats on the pg!!! You must be so excited! Hope alls going well for you!
Trish - Ooooo not too much longer for you now!!! Thats just too exciting to be adding a pink bundle to your blue. I know I keep saying that, but I think it will be just great for you all!
Amber - You're over half way now!!! Wooo Hoooo!!! You're due on Tiera's 2nd birthday! I bet you're hoping your 2 littlies don't share a birthday?! I'm sure they'll have their own days! Hope you're doing well.
A BIG hello to everyone else.... Mo, Willow, MiniMax, Pheonix, Nickers, Kim, and anyone I have missed!
Hey Pish,
Long time no see! All is well here wee man is super cheeky (well no not really he's an angel with the devil's smile lol) hes the best little cuddler . How long have you been TTC for? Thank you on the grats, hoping number 2 is half as well behaved as her/his big brother!
Trish- nearly over and you'll have 3 gorgeous kids to chase around . Glad they weren't too feral on the return even if you still had a twitch developing from lack of sleep. Have you caught some of it back?
Mo- feeling any better? Hope you do
Hi to everyone else, sorry for lack of personals very sleepy, had a nightmare my grandparents got broken into at 4am and didn't get back to sleep, early night tonight . Rung them today and they are fine, Nana has double checked all her windows are locked. The one I dreamed they got broken into wasn't but is now... maybe it was a warning from beyond lol, or just preggie hormones...
Celtic - We offically started TTC in May, but I was sick right in the middle of the month for days, so that month went out the window. I am now a day late for the June try, did a HPT last night which was neg, so only time will tell. If AF hasn't arrived my the weekend then I will do a morning test then. Just gotta wait and see I guess! Glad to hear alls well. Tiera is ferral! hahahahahahaha She is seeming morning and more like a 2 yr old these days. She throws great tanties and will ramdomly throw things at people! She never deliberatly tries to hurt anyone though! Tiera is a very active little girl, so I think that is a big part of it, as wells as being smart and strong willed.... I'm looking forward to all of that when she's a teenager!!! hahaha
Sorry I went MIA.....Been hectic around here. The gearbox went in my car so it went on the back of a tow truck to get fixed 2 weeks ago but lucky its covered under warranty and will only cost us $500 to get it sorted instead of $2000!! Been mad shopping too getting Xmas sorted cause I don't want to have to do it all with a newborn and a 2 yr old!! That is just asking for hell with the xmas crowds!! Good thing about all the toy sales is the no deposit layby's and the specials we are getting off stuff we wanted for Rhys for his birthday!! DH wanted to get him a tool bench and tools and all that real boy stuff....all the Tonka stuff was on special at Myer and we saved over $100!! Very happy. Bubba H is kicking up a storm. And I look huge but my Dr said it is because of my placenta being accreta and sitting right at the front.
After our domestic last week....Lol....DH has decided that he wasn't doing enough around the house and did agree with me that he was appreciating everything that I was doing and has been very very helpful the past week and a half!!
AMBER - Pretty cool about K Rudd coming to the bakery!! How is nudge going?? Is Myles understanding what is going on with your tummy growing. Rhys kinda knows but doesn't in the same token!! It's funny when he is sitting and leaning back on my lap on the recliner and he feels a kick he sits up and looks at me and just laughs!! So cute.
PISH - Welcome back!! I wondered what had happened to you!! Lucky girl getting to go on a holiday!!
CELTIC - How you going with your pregnancy?? When do you have your first/next scan??
JULIA - How have you settled in?? Glad to hear that Max has settled in well. How is Charlie coping without you guys back here in Aus??
Well that is all I can remember for now!! Been busy tonight....Will be in more often, I promise!!
Hi girls, just a quickie. Sorry I have not been around, I feel so blah, no energy and tired and have not been bothered with belly belly. Do not think I have even been on facebook as much as I normally would be. I will be back soon, hopefully, when I can be bothered. Roll on second trimester!
I'm back...... Fortunately you ladies haven't been too chatty so I have been able to catch up.
Anyway, we moved on Monday. Underestimated the amount of stuff we have and the time needed to clean our old house. But we are in and slowly working through the boxes and putting things in their new home.
L is loving the new house. New rooms to explore, doors to close and open (door handles are now in reach) and a yard to run around in. Both he and the dogs are having the time of their lives running around on the lawn.
L has been a bit unsettled with it all. He also started his new daycare yesterday. I spent about 90 mins there helping him orient him, talking with his new carers etc. He would go off for a while and I would move closer to the door and then he would run over for a hug and I'd have to stay a bit longer. The feedback at the end of the day was pretty positive and I'll find out more when I drop him off tomorrow.
Willow - hope the blood test comes back in the clear. Hopefully it is one of those pregnancy things that will disappear. Kaz - the first trimester is the worst. I can only imagine how hard it is to have to deal with that and two little ones. Rest up and come in and say hello when you can. Amelia - I'm hanging out for the Target toy sale. This year we'll have both L and bubs to buy for. Bubs will be 4 months at Christmas. I don't know if I should just get a big thing for both of them or separate/age appropriate things. Need to see what they have on offer.
Good to hear things are back to normal between you and DH.
hello to everyone else. Hope you, your bellybumps and tots are well.
We'll now that we are in the house I can start making up bub's room. Her room has a blue feature wall so need to find a nice colour to paint over it. Don't know if we should go pink or lilac. Haven't decided on a theme so no colours in mind yet. MIL is bringing over the basinet cover this weekend so that might inspire me. L's theme is red, white and blue and teddy bears. Got heaps of qulits, blankets, sheets that we should use.
Been a very selfish post but had a lot to tell you all.
I braved the toys sales yesterday with the girls, Phil's cousin & Aunty. Thank goodness i had their help people go a little crazy at them lol.
We got Maddi a Dora rashie, Dora towel, Dora easel & Dora DVD for her birthday & A wooden Country kitchen for christmas. Waiting for the target sale to get things for Kodi.
Kodi's still having poor weight gains, falling below average now. I think if her weight gain is still poor next weigh in they'll start pushing formula.On the bright side she looks healthy & is happy and content. So that's a positive
M's doing well still not eating much, but she's healthy so i'm happy with that.
Amelia - We realise just how much we use our cars when they start to have probs! hahaha nothing worse! Yeah I'm trying to get Xmas sorted to, get everything on laybe this year so we don't have to get such a large amount in one lump sum! Dh is no help what so ever though!
Saffi - A new house is so exciting... exect the moving part! Great to hear you all love it. Must be so exciting being able to set up for bub #2! Not long to go now. Hope all is well for you.
Mo - I've only got a couple of ideas for Tiera's Xams prezzies, dont know what I'm going to do for her birthday!!! Thats a shame Kodi isn't thriving on the breast, hope she starts gaining weight soon!
