kaz - 16 sleeps but who's counting??. I'm sure he will be "baked" perfectly. I love those hiccups. Trish - you're game going on such a long caravan trip, but it does sound good. I've never been to WA (really must go sometime). Julia - how'd the scan go?
Hello to everyone!
We are going well. Weighed M yesterday and she is now 7.28kg. This puts her around the 75th percentile for weight so a chubby bubby.
M had some photos done with one of those shopping centre photographers yesteray. The shots I saw look so good. I can't wait until they are ready to be picked up next month. They were the first professional photos we've had taken of her. Thinking I should get some of L and of both of them. Maybe not....
L is good. His vocab is expanding all the time and he is now talking about things that he did (like going for a walk to the shops with DH). DH says that L was dreaming about dinosaurs last night........
Hope all of you in the southern states are surviving the hot weather.
Hi all! Man it's hot!! Luckily it doesn't look like it will reach the forecast 40 degrees today. Come on cool change, we need you!!
All is going well with us. DH took K to the physio today to get his legs checked. They are still quite bowed, we were told they should straighten by the age of two, but only his left leg has slightly straightened. I started a thread asking if anyone knows about bow legs, but it looks like they don't LOL! We are getting a referal to see an orthopedic surgeon at the Children's, hopefully he won't need anything drastic done.
Poor K got stung by a bee yesterday . Luckily he got over it pretty quickly, but it was so awful.
Saffi - I hope you post the photos on FB when you get them back! It's so cute when they start conversing with you isn't it? They say the cutest things
Kaz - Thinking of you in this heat!! Not long to go now, I'm so excited for you and can't wait to hear the good news (and the name!)!
Amber - How are you and your cute boys going?
Mo - Poor Maddi has had such a bad run of luck with infections . I hope she has a nice clear run of health from now on! I can't believe it's nearly K's 1st birthday
Kellie - I hope you're coping in this awful heat!
Julia - Have you had your scan yet? I'm dying to hear about it!!
Hi to everyone else , hope you all have a great day
I am so sorry it has been sooooooooo long since I was in here last but dear oh dear it has been busy here! I have found myself working a lot more than we all expected I'd need to, but thats ok, it make the time go faster.
Trish - Poor K getting stung by that nasty bee, I've never been stung by a bee so I don't know what it feels like but it sounds horrible and I think I'd cry if T got stung. I wish you all the best with your app with the O Surgeon. Does it take a long time to get into places like that down there? Hopefully they don't have to do anything too invasive to fix the prob.
To all of you sweltering through these hot hot days I really do feel for each and everyone of you especially those of you UTD, its not nice! I worked on Saturday (which was extremely hot up here) stripping and making beds, cleaning cabins and it was horrible! Thankfully we have a little cafe at the park during the peak time so I got a slurpee the moment I was done! It is not cool only having about 10 people to clean over 40 cabins in one morning!!!!
I hope you and your little people are all happy and well and enjoying all the summer festivities.
hi all.....sorry for being mia but i here now. just quickly tho......
trish - my nephew has a bowed leg, he is 3 next month. he has to wear a brace to bed on his foot/leg and also special soles in his shoes. his leg was 30 degrees out at 18 months old and his check up just before xmas he was only 10 degrees out of being perfectly straight. so no surgery or anyhing for him, just a long process thats all.
julia - yay for a girl!!
cant remember who suggested the name hunter for someone but that is my other nephews name....we call him hunter thr grunter cause he was snoring just after birth.
girls, hope you are all well. It has been really quiet in here! I just have an update in regards to when Baby V will arrive ... frustrating ...
So I have had a few issues with the hospital that I am meant to be giving birth at. I was scheduled for my c section on the 8th of Feb, then they brought me forward to to the 1st because of my pain with my pelvic instability. That was all good. Then I get a phone call a week or so ago to move my date again, scheduling issues at the hospital and this made it better for them! So they moved me to the 28th of Jan, even better. Then yesterday I get a phone call telling me the list has now been cancelled on the 28th and they are moving me to the 3rd of Feb. I cracked it and said no way, we have people coming from interstate, my husband and MIL have already changed their holidays twice ... you can't keep changing it. I also said isn't the 3rd list full (as I had tried to deliver that day) and she is like yes you will be an emergency! I said put me back to the 1st then, when I was originally put in and she said that list if full and I would be an emergency. So I said to her what if I stay on the 28th, she said you would be an emergency! I am like, so why bother changing me, every date you are giving me I am an emergency anyway? So that means I have to go to the hospital at 6am and if they have not had time to do my c section before 8pm that night the baby won't be born until 'most likely' the following day! I am really unhappy. I rang the doctor back later in the day as I was really stressed out about it and explained my situation to her rationally, apologised for being short with her and she said that is ok, we are just trying to do what is right for everyone and you sound like you really want that date. I was like its not a matter of that, but more that you guys keeps giving me a new date which I might not even be able to have the baby on anyway! So annoying. So I have a new date for now, but that might change. We are keeping it quiet because I don't want to have to tell everyone a new date every time they change it on me. So keep your eyes out, we will post on facebook once bubs is born ... and I will let Kellie know she she can do my announcement on here as well.
It all feels a bit too hard at the moment. Maybe Baby V will make a move to come into the world by himself ... you never know!
Kaz - What a stuff about! I too would have got a bit cranky. Hopefully they don't change you about again. I'll be keeping an eye out towards the end of the month for your birth announcment!
They've put you as an 'emergency' because of your pain....so surely the EARLIER the better (as long as bubs is cooked )! Why not change and faff around with the elective c-sections that have no issues along side them.....pffttttt!
Hope it all works out OK
HI everyone else! Hope you are all well....just a quick update....
Had my scan the other day and all went really well. Definitely cooking a pink one and everything is growing nicely. My placenta is low and JUSt clear of the cervix...phew! Happily plodding along getting bigger!
Singa's is going well now, not feeling as blergh about it. I still miss Charlie too much though! I'm going home in a week for a friends wedding...and will be there for a week so catching up with the MG girls and as many friends as I can. Then I'm back there in March and then April! Time is flying! I'll have a baby in a minute I bet!
Trish How did K go at the physio? I checked out your FB pics too....your family is so gorgeous! Amelia How you going with Rhys now and keeping Harri up? Pish I can't believe how far your ticker has ticked all of a sudden! Wowzers!
