    Hi all,

    Sorry I didn't pop back yesterday after the scan, was having some mixed feelings and wasn't in the best head space, but I'm here now! Everything went really well with the scan. Bub is perfect, growing nicely (although a little small, still in normal range), was doing all the right things at all the right times making the sonographers job easy. We didn't find out the sex of the bub.

    Well I don't have a boy so can't help with your Qu Willow.

    Hope all is well.

    I wasn't going to say anything As it's just a selfish post.
    Kodi in the last week has had 2 seizures, both lasting around a 1min & both times she has become unresponsive while having them.
    We got into the rapid review clinic at Casey & she sent K off for an ECG(Normal), blood test (waiting) & She needs to have an ECG done(Waiting for Monash to call back with a time).
    I'm so worried about my baby girl, i'm hoping it's nothing & it was just a twice off thing.


    Tiff so glad your u/s went well & i read your other post & i'm very sorry

    Thanks Ladies, i'm not in the best head space at the moment.
    They weren't big seizures, but her body was shaking. Kinda like she was shivering really bad.
    She had a blank stare & when we called her name etc she wouldn't respond.
    I'm really hoping we don't have to go through this ever again, it's very scary.
    I'd be so lost without you ladies

    Hi everyone

    Thanks everyone for the congrats on the blue bundle, we are very excited. T wasn't happy with the idea at first, but I think she is coming around.

    Welcome happy mummy!

    Kaz - I didnt think PP had much either, although its hard for me as I need winter clothes and all the summer stock is still in. I'll have to check out the other store you mentioned. Hope you are all feeling better!

    Saffi - I'm with Mo on the vax thing, I wouldn't get it for myself so i'm not doing it to T either

    Nic - that must have been scary, glad he is ok!

    Pish - glad to hear all was well with the scan, sorry you didnt get to find out bubs flavour

    Mo - dont ever think thats a selfish post! Thats what we are here for! I'm sure K will be just fine... hugs

    funny story from me, T was asking for chocolate yesterday and I told her she'd had enough, so this morning when I was asking her for kisses before I went to work, she gave me one, and when I wanted another, she told me I'd had enough kisses! Cheeky monkey!

    Hi to everyone else!

    Hi Everyone,

    Thanks for the warm welcome! I didn't get back in as DH and I have been having some issues, but all seems ok for now.. Just a lack of communication..

    Kaz - hope the family starts getting back on track soon. It is so hard when you have a low immunity from one bug, cause you just get the next one, and it seems never ending. And missing fun events really sucks!

    Saffi - We won't be getting the swine flu vax for DD. DH and I never considered it for ourselves either. I just don't feel enough research has been done.. We put our Xmas tree up and DD kept shoving decorations just on branches, but she had fun. And it is the 1st place she goes when she gets up or we get home too.

    Mo - the cubby sounds great. We are thinking of something like that next year when DS can enjoy it too. But my parents have just split up, so we are taking the swing set as neither of them will have space for it. So hoping that is enough for DD in the meantime. I hope your DD is ok. Fingers crossed that it was only a virus or something that caused it!

    Nic - how scary?? That must have been terifying. I am always so nervous taking both my kids on my own. I only ever take them to someone's house, that is about the level of my comfort cause DD is so fast and is only 2.

    Boomba - I can't even get DD near Santa,not even screaming, so unfortunately not even going to attempt the photo this year. Not to mention how high my blood pressure goes just thinking of going to the shops.

    Pish - men and drinking.. Must be a special gene. My DH got so drunk at DD's birthday party (he managed to hide it till everyone left though), and was so sick. No sympathy from here, but he did agree to getting a plastic climbing frame for DD, so I held him to it, LOL. At least your friend made mocktails for you!!

    Willow - thanks for the congrats on DS. Still trying to get used to it myself, LOL.. I know I don't have a 2 yr old boy, bbut we are getting DD an overnight bag with wheels cause she tries to steel everyone's when they visit, and just some kids cooking stuff, and undies. More practical stuff. She got so many toys for her birthday and the family are getting her toys.

    Julia - I think the teaset sounds great for a boy. My DS will be playing with that kind of stuff. My brothers, all older, were given stuff like that before I came along. But my 2nd eldest brother hates his son playing with girly stuff. No idea why. They need to learn life ettiquette somewhere.

    Kellie - your DD sounds so much like my DD. The things they come out with!

    Hope I didn't miss anyone.. But I never do posts like this, so don't get used to it, LOL..

    AFU - DD has been very clingy today. Not sure if she is coming down with something or whether she just picked up on the fact that I was going somewhere today after dropping her off to daycare. She chucked one almighty tantrum which she has never done there before.

    DD is a great big sister and is so helpful with DS. Apparently she even went into the nursery at daycare today to 'help out' as her room was short staffed. And she is moving up to pre-kindy early next year too, if I get her TT by then. They won't move her up until she is trained. But I am no hurry for either. She went a few times, and now asks for a nappy again, so will just wait another week and try again.

    hope you are ok mo...

    lachlan has worked out how to bribe me

    i always buy him a flavoured milk when we do grocery shopping, and when we went near that fridge the other day he looks at me with this beautiful face and says
    'mummy, milk, pease, miyum miyew' (translation, 'mummy, milk, please, i love you') it was the cutest thing
    not much else going on here, the new job is fantastic and lachlan is enjoying being back at day care 2 days a week. he is with my mum one day, craig one day and me the other so it has all worked out perfectly!!!!

    Morning ladies

    Mo - Oh you poor thing! That must be terrifying for you all! I really hope everything is ok and it mever happens again! Keep us up to date with how it's all going.

    Kellie - Have you been out blue shopping yet??? hehehehe you must be so excited! That is such a cute story! They really pick up on things so quick to use it against us! Too cute.

    Happy - My DD is a great helper when bubs are around too! I think she'll make a great big sister. You must be happy that she enjoys being a big sister, I'd hate to have a 2nd child and the first hate it!

    Kate - hehehehe Thats so cute... T tries those ones on me too, it's so hard to resist!! I get kisses and all!

    MiniMax, Willow, Trish, Saffi, Amber and anyone else I missed.

    I'm taking T to the Wiggles next Wed, she is going to love it and I can't wait!!! We're going with my aunty and little cousin so they'll have a great time together.

    Thats about it from us. Hope you all have a great day.

    Mo, we're all praying for you here. Hope you get some answers soon.

    Mo - That must have been terrifying. I hope all of her results come back clear and it was just 'one of those things'. I was talking to a friend just last week who experienced a very similar thing. Turned out her little girl had a virus and after she recovered was just fine.

    Pish - Just read your other thread. So sorry to hear you were so upset after your scan. I hope you and DH can resolve things. It's hard - my DH didn't want to know for #3 either but I was happy to just let it go. We are also going to see the Wiggles next Friday! Are you going to Newcastle or coming down to Sydney? Keep meaning to say, I didn't realise you were in Forster (or had forgotten) my mum and dad are up there and I lived there for a short time when I was a kid. We're hoping to move back up that way in a few years, although not that far north as DHs work is relocating to Newcastle.

    Misskate - That is so cute! L says 'Wuv ooo mummy' for 'love you mummy'.

    Hope everyone else is well. Thanks for all your tips re xmas presents. Have decided on a trike, just trying to get him one that doesn't cost the earth!

    Better go, have a busy day of cleaning ahead of me, having a BB meetup here on Friday

    Hello all

    Mo - hugs to you. Please, please, please tell us about these things. Hopefully you will get some answers and even better that they never happen again. When I was a baby I had febrile convulsions and I turned out ok (mostly) LOL.
    Heather - my DS (L) is going into pre-kindy too next year. Noone has said anything about TT but we are starting to train him so it hopefully shouldn't be long.
    Pish - were you upset because couldn't find out the sex? Great that bub's is healthy.
    Kate - how cute!
    Amber - have a nice time at the hairdressers. I seriously need to get my hair done. It was last done just before M arrived.
    Julia - like the idea of the tea set. They play home corner at daycare with a kitchen set. Nothing like getting boys trained up early!
    Willow - I bought on line a personalised placemat for L and M. L has recently joined us at the table so he needs his own (easy to clean) mat. I still have mine from when I was a kid so its like continuing on the tradition.
    Trish - hi!
    kellie - I was disappointed at first when I knew L was a boy as I thought I'd miss out on all that shopping for cute outfits. In the end I actually enjoyed shopping for L. Boys clothes seem to be classed into surfer, country, preppy etc so once you decide what style he will have you can go from there.

    Anyway, need to have a shower etc. Have a good day.

    Hi everyone! I'm going to attempt to post while Alana is asleep and the boys are happily playing!

    Mo - Still thinking of you guys, let us know how you go with the test results .

    Amber - Lucky you getting your hair done! Make sure you post some pics on FB!

    Willow - Trikes are so expensive aren't they?! I looked into getting one for K for Christmas, but was put off by the price and quality of the ones I saw in person. The really good ones were unbelievably expensive! We have bought K a wheelbarrow and I'm going to get some garden tools to go with it. He absolutely loves helping DH in the garden and I know he'll have a ball with his wheelbarrow

    misskate - Heehee, Lachlan is so cute! How could you say no to that?

    Heather - How gorgeous that your DD helped out with the babies! She sounds like a little mother hen

    Kellie - Tahlia is so gorgeous, what a cheeky thing to say! I love the stuff they come out with. K was trying to undress himself (out of his PJ's) this morning and I asked him if he wanted some help. He said "No mummy, STAY!" and held his hand up at me LOL! Such a cheeky monkey.

    Tiff - I'm glad the scan went well and your bub is doing well . I hope you are feeling a bit better today .

    Julia - A tea set is a great idea! I used to have tea parties with Joel and his teddies all the time!

    Saffi - It sounds like M could be teething. Hopefully she teethes quickly and easily for you! L sounds like he's done well for Christmas!!

    Nic - That must have been so scary . I'm glad you were there and that he was OK .

    Kaz - How are you poor sickies going?

    AFU - K has come down with a cold atm, he ended up in bed with us two nights ago because he was upset. I heard him start getting sniffly while in bed with us so he must have been feeling a bit ordinary. Last night was such a battle to get him to stay in bed, he carried on and wanted to come out. In the end I got him up because he woke Alana up with his noise and poor Joel couldn't sleep through it. I put him on the couch, turned the TV and lights off and told him to stay there while I have a shower. By the time I got out of the shower he had fallen asleep so I put him back to bed and he slept until 8am this morning. I really hope this isn't the start of night-time battles, I don't need it atm! Alana had an ordinary night last night, she'd done a poo at some stage overnight and it gave her a nasty rash which I'm guessing is why she was unsettled. I'm hoping tonight is better!

    Hope you are all well!

    Still waiting on Monash to call us. K seems good today, She has a little bruise from her blood test other than she is happy

    Thank-you for the thoughts, i know deep down she will be fine, but i really hate having to wait.
    Especially since Monash could take a few weeks to fit us in for the ECG & then another week for the results to come back.

    I'll bbl later with personals, I promise i am reading everyone's posts

    Evening ladies,

    Willow - We're going to the Newcastle show. I am going with my aunty and she is a complete stress ball when it comes to taking her daughter in the car!! All my family are in SYD so originally we were going down there but she thought NC would be a better option so we're staying at my nan's place in Swan Sea Tues night as it is a 10am show (I think!). If you're even heading up to see the fam let me know, I'd love to catch up for a coffee if you get the chance!

    Amber - Thats great you got to do your chopping child free... T goes to family day care on Thurs so I try to do all of my shopping then, but it is pention day for all of the oldies in town..... My goodness it is the worse day to go to the shops, or even be on the road!!! I know that sounds so rude, but Fortser has the nighest percentage of over 65's in the entire country, so when they're all out verything moves oh so slowing... I wont even get into the driving thing!!! So I am glad I put most of the Xmas prezzies on layby back in July. It's great you and Terri are so claose and the kids get along we well!

    Trish - I hope K is feeling better soon. T cried and cried and cried last night when she went to bed, got herself so worked up DH and I had to take turns on going in there and calming her down, I really don't know what her prob was though. It's good he fell asleep on his own still, even if he wasn't in bed. I hope he does better for you tonight.

    Lauren - Great to hear from you. Hope you're all doing well. Take care

    Mo - The wait must be so hard for you! I hope they call you really soon. Poor little bubba, it's just not fair is it?!

    AFU - (for those of you that didn't see my post), I was so disappointed I didn't get to find out the sex of our bub. DH was completely against it so I really didn't have a choice. No, DH and I haven't spoken about it again yet. I woke up the next day feeling a lot more relaxed and wasn't mad anymore so didn't really want to revisit those feelings again. It will definately be discussed further later down the track, but one of the ladies said to me that she wanted to find out with her DH so they could share the happiness which really got me thinking!!! I don't think I could find out without DH knowing, I want to share it with the one I love... I know I'm pathetic!!! As for the Epi thing, I did say to him right through my last preg that if I ask for it I want my wishes listened to, to which he replies, 'no you'll be right' and that hasn't changed this time either, so when I book into the hossy I will be saying to them I would prefer not to have it, but if I ask then I am desperate and to give it to me (if time permits!). He will be furious that I have gone over his head but I am doing what I feel is right by myself, as selfish as that sounds.

    Anyways nothing else happening here!!! Hope you all had a great day!
    Going to visit my friend who had her bub yesterday (ktdancer, you may have seen her about here), I can't wait to meet her little princess!

    Have a great night
