I'm around. feeling more human but poor K has a virus, feels like i'm constantly changing her bum poor bubba.
Lauren glad you had a good time away.
Julia I'm loving this age with Maddi was well. Every morning when she wakes up now she goes Morning Maddi lol
What everyone brought/getting their toddler for Christmas?
Trish - Poor K! That's an awful thing to have. Does this mean he will always have cold sores now? Can your Mum come and stay with you to help out this week? Mo - so we have got L a trike and a Thomas the Tank railway set for Xmas. Haven't even thought what we are getting Immi. We have so many toys as is evidenced by the state of our deck and loungeroom I really don't want to get anymore toys for either of them.
Anyway Immi is crying out for a feed so gotta go. BBL
Wow it has been a VERY long time since I was here last!
Saffi - I can't believe you baby girl is already 3 month old!!! She is gorgeous!!
Mo - Oh dear your poor baby girls have not been very well this year. I hope little Kodi is feeling better really soon. I hope 2010 is nicer to you all in the illness area (can you believe we ae almost in 2010!!!)
Trish - I hope K is feeling better really soon. That sounds horrible for him! Great thing he enjoyed is party though, illness and all. I hope you have a good week while DH is in Japan.... Lucky him, I think I would have been asking to join him!!!
Well Tiera also had her party on Saturday and had a great time. She got so many lovely gifts, she is a very lucky little girl. We were meant to go to another party the next morning, but T has an aweful cough and it was raining out so didn't think it a good idea to take her out in it, especially because it was in the peoples back yard, although covered in, it still would have been quite cool. The Dr this morning put her on Ventolin which is my worst nightmare as I am asthmatic and never wanted this for my children. The Dr say that she's not yet calling it Asthma and we will just wait and see how she responds to it all, so we are going back on Friday for a check up.
As for me, I am still quite sick and still tired, hoping that all soon dies down... I'm 15 weeks on Wed, so surely wont stay around much longer!!!
Anyways ladies, thats us!!
Take care all and I'll be sure to check back really soon.
We had a bad afternoon, Mia had a temp of 41. I get a bit freaked when it gets that high. Rang Casey and they put me through to Nurse on Call, never heard of it before. It is a registered nurse service, you go through what is going on and they give advice. Anyway, after explaining she had been sick and was on antibiotics, she recommended I get her into a Dr within 4 hours or if I couldn't to go to emergency. Luckily for me, my new great Dr said we could come straight down. Her ear is really bad again, and her throat is covered in puss pockets. Apparently this explains her temp and the antibiotics not working. So I come away with a new script and a bring her back in 2 days if no improvement. She is heaps better though, after a dose of panadol and nurofen and a tepid bath. So much perkier. So fingers crossed.
As for me, I am getting braxton hicks all the time. They are out of control. If I get stressed or raise my voice they start. So I need to try and remain a big more chilled if that is possible. I have been so hot today, just starting to feel slightly cooler now! Have my gtt test Thursday morning, the 2 hour one. Then Monash Monday, which will hopefully be where I get my delivery date. Then my 4d scan on the 22nd. SO busy busy. My baby is very active and I am buggered. Still have 14 weeks to go, ouch is all I can say!
Pish - Great to see you back. I am glad all is going well and the tiredness improves for you now you are in your second trimester.
Mo - Poor Kodi, poor little bubba being sick. Hopefully the anti's kick in soon and you guys can get back to some kind of normal.
Saffi - I can sympathise with the pressie and toy situation ... we have a room devoted to toys and they still end up all over the house. This christmas we are mainly opting for outside toys from Santa. Cannot wait, as the kids love swings and that is what they are getting. Along with a couple of quads and some smaller stuff. I am sure they will love it!
Trish - So sorry to hear K still is not well. Ouch, how much must that hurt the poor little man. I hope he gets better soon for you. And do a ME post whenever you want, we have all been there and done it. Glad the party was still fun regardless xx
Julia - You got the sex and you want the name now as well ... some things I will have to keep a secret! Glad you are not feeling blah sick this time around with your bubs, but sorry to hear about the gas! Pass on my sympathies to BEN ... LMAO!!
Celtic - How are things going with you? Been thinking about you and hoping you get a miracle babe xx
Kellie - Thanks for the link for the BB meet, I will have to look into it and see what we are up to that weekend. A night or morning out would be really welcome right now!
Amber - I see on FB you wrote your birth story, better have a read after I post here. Also had a quick squiz at your pics and you can definately see a lot of Myles in bub. Do you see it as well?
Kaz i hope these AB's do the trick for Mia, Seems like we have both had a really bad run illness's this year.
Good luck with your GTT i really hate that test.
Tiff will you be finding out the flavour of your bubba? Glad T had a great day & i really hope she isn't asthmatic.
Kodi is still getting her high temps, without the panadol her temp goes to 40.
She's not sleeping for longer than 30mins at a time & i can't put her down. I'm sooo tired & i know she's exhausted. She has bright red eyes from always rubbing them. Really hoping the AB's kick in today.
I just wanted to bid you farewell. I am leaving BB due to recent issues i have had. I wish all the new bubs, pregnant mamas and those TTC all the very best.
I'll only be popping on to congratulate the new mama's when their bundles arrive and if good friends fall pregnant.
Thank you for all the support i have been given over the past 3.5 years
Hi everyone
apologies for being so slack.... again!
Celtic - good luck with your scan tomorrow, I hope you get some answers
Julia - thanks! I can't believe you are already 12 weeks!
Mo - we've bought Tahlia one of those plastic Dora cubbies for christmas, got it in July at the toy sales. I'm sure she'll end up getting more than that though!
Trish - hope Kierans leg is all better now! I bet its great having your DH back!
Mo - how is Kodi today?
Pish - sorry to hear about the asthma diagnosis, that does suck! I'm still very tired too, but the sickness has passed, so shouldnt be too much longer for you! Are you finding out the gender of this bub?
Saffi - how are L's bites now? poor little thing!
Amber - how are you going? Hope the bleeding has settled down
kaz- sorry to hear bubs is giving you some pain! I just said to mum the other day that I couldnt wait for the strong movements that people can feel from the outside and she just shook her head at me... she probably remembers me complaining about Tahlia hurting me when she kicked like that!
AFM - Miss T has an ear infection at the moment, so she is on ear drops. They thankfully seem to be clearing it up quickly though. Friday night she woke up screaming and going 'ouch my ear' and 'panadol', so it must have been horrible for her! It is good (in a funny kind of way) that she can tell me where her pain is now, rather than me trying to guess.
Got my ob appt tomorrow so looking forward to a quick scan of bub to see how he/she is going... and less than 3 weeks till my big scan.. I can't wait!
Kazaraz - I hope bubby has moved into a btter spot for you! As stupid as it sounds I am looking forward to all of that again! It is comforting to know bubby is ok with every push and kick.
Kellie - I LOVE your new Avi!!! I haven't noticed it as yet so please forgive me if it has been changed for a while! We're not finding out what we're having, we didn't with DD either. I'd like to but DH really doesn't want to know and I would be able to keep it a secret. It's really nice to play the guessing game and have the surprise at the end though. Are you going to find out??? I'm only a week and a half behind you!!! Our bubs will be nice and close again!!!
Really nothing much to report here. T is saying more and more words and sentenaces everyday. She is a funny little Miss!!! I am REALLY loving this stage.. I know I say that about every stage, but she is just so funny and so fun these days, its the best!
to everyone else out there in the land of toddlers! Have a great day all!
Kellie - L's mozzie bites are much better, thanks for asking. We have been covering him in repellent and have a bug zapper on in his room so hopefully he shouldn't be attacked anymore.
I had to laugh when you said T asked for panadol. I can't imagine L ever asking for medicine. We still have to hold him down to get any medication into him. Tiff - this stage is pretty good isn't it. Mind you there are also some whopper tantrums too (for us anyway). Amber - Myles will settle down and get used to his little brother. Great that Flynn is being good to you.
Hello to everyone else.
Going to be a hot one here today. Got all the windows open but it is still hot. DH has come down with a virus or something AGAIN so he is home. I've sent him off to lie down as its better than him moping around.
Saffi - Oh yeah, T throw some great tanties! Thank goodness they don't really last long... YET! It is really hot here today too, so I can only imagine what it is like in sunny QLD, I am so glad we have aircon (although I don't have it on atm as there is a nice breeze coming through). Hope your little man is feel better soon!
Mo - great news about Kodi. Let's hoping for a long stretch of being healthy.
Some good news for us. L had the whole of yesterday morning in underpants. Daycare put him in undies as it is so hot up here they thought he might be uncomfortable in cloth nappies. He was dry the whole morning. They are transitioning him into pre-kindy and I assume that most of the kids are TT. So now I'll have to go out and get some undies. We have started TT him so now we'll see about maybe having him in undies too. Trish/Willow - any tips on what worked for your kiddies?
Immi is having her long morning sleep so might go and have a shower and get my day started.
Pish - yep, we're finding out the sex! 2 weeks tomorrow! I cant wait!
Saffi - with the panadol thing, she actually hates the panadol brand, but we get her dymadon and she loves it, she just calls it panadol. Have you tried that one? Go L on the toilet training! How is he going today?
Amber - good luck with the photos! I'm sure you'll all look gorgeous!
Julia - great news about the scan results, its such a relief isn't it!
Kaz - glad you got some answers, and hope the treatments help out! It must be hard being so sore and having to look after the other 2 as well! Take care!
Willow - Good luck at the paed tomorrow! Tahlia is much better now, thanks for asking
Trish - the pics of K on fb are so cute! He looks so grown up
Tahlia says her name too, most of the time its associated with not sharing ie she says Tahlias book, Tahlias doll when someone else is trying to play with it. cheeky monkey. Its actually quite weird how she also gets some of the 1st letters of words wrong, she says 'rink' instead of drink, but she can say d cause she says daddy, doggy etc and she also says 'pinished' instead of 'finished' which is also strange cause she says 'funny' so she can make the f sound... weird. There are others too, but they are just the ones I can think of at the moment. Hopefully she'll grow out of it!
Kaz - pelvic instability is really common in/after pregnancy. I am being treated atm for 2 bulging discs in my back and an unstable pelvis. I am wearing a brace at the moment and it is great as it provides a lot of support. Another good thing is that it sucks in all the lumps and bumps. Hopefully you can get some relief soon. Kellie - I haven't been able to get out to the shops yet, so will get some undies on the weekend. Willow - GL for tomorrow. Trish - L's language is developing so fast too. Today we were walking past the library and he pointed to it and said books. He has only every been inside once!
Twilight fans - when are you going to see New Moon? I only saw Twilight on the weekend and I surprised myself by enjoying it.
Thanks everyone for the suggestions for TT. I'm a bit nervous about letting him run around without pants on. If he does do an accident I wouldn't know whether to "blame" him or the dogs LOL.
I don't think L can say his name yet at least I have never heard him. What I find interesting is that any photo of a women (ie in a catalogue) he says Mummy, a man is Daddy, and a baby is Immi. I showed L a page in a catalogue which had both a baby and a boy toddler and asked him where is Lochie? He didn't know which one to choose.
Kellie - I hope you are going to share when you find out this time!
Saffi - Max also HATES the panadol brand with a passion. Would throw up if I tried to give it to him. He is also a fan of Dymadon like Tahlia, it's a bit sweeter and not so gross to taste, maybe give it a try. Do I EVER want to go and see New Moon, but it doesn't come out till the 3rd December here so I'm being totally ripped off. I'm going to go and see it gold class with a friend who is as equally obsessed as me. I got her into the books
Max also says his name...and he can say it properly, it's a pretty easy one though. It's cute when he says it coz he points to himself when he says it like "Max's turn" "Max's Mower". Like you say though Kellie some letters you know he can pronounce but he doesn't say it with some words. He could always say Nanny really clearly, but his "NO" used to be "Doh" (like homer) He's got it right now though. The funniest one I've worked out with him is "Abu daddit" which apparently means, I want a drink! He says LOTS of please and thank you's....LIke just the he just said "more pasta pease" then I get "da doo Mummy". He is edible! Although, he does have a lisp! Anyone else's kiddies have one? He certainly can't pronounce 's' with his tongue behind his teeth IYKWIM.
Although Tiera doesn't actually say her name, he refers to herself as "me" or Missy May (as thats what I call her a lot of time, so I guess she thinks she is saying her name?!), she is saying things like lady and man (and most of the time gets it right, but when we go to a check out she ALWAYS says lady!), she knows all of our 4 dogs names, Tonka, Dodge, Mac and Viper (not easy names but she gets them spot on) MIL's dog Tyson, close family friends Ma Suzie and Uncler Arthur (although she can't yet say Uncle), she LOVES dogs and say mummy puppy.. Peeeeeeeeeeeease, then asks the owner "puppy cuddle"? (I don't much like her going over to other dogs and don't let her do it much but she gets so excited when she can!)
I think she is doing really well with names etc and never really seems to get mixed up, although sometimes says mummy nanny as I think she forgets who she talking to!
I really love all of the talking, just so cute!
I'm sorry it's a selfish one. I'll BBL today or first thing tomorrow personals.
Take care and have a great day all
