Hope everyone had a great easter & the little ones didn't eat too much choccie.
Everyone is doing well here, K had a little bit of choc yesterday & broke out in a rash later that night.
Not sure if it was Choc or a delayed reaction to her 12 month needles tho.
Maddi is doing really well, she has become a parrot & now we have to watch everything we say.
She's caught us out a few times but luckily she hasn't repeated it.
The girls did well for Easter, I hid all the choc last night & M has forgotten all about it today, so more choc for me Kodi got clothes & money and M got Clothes, Money, a DVD & Chocolate.
Kellie are you going in for an induction or you going to let nature do it's thing?
Mo - still havent decided.... I dont know what to do! I'm worried about having the induction and then having a horrid time, but I'm also worried about not making it to the hospital in time if I have a spontaneous labour! Also the organised person in me likes the thought of induction as it means I can organise Tahlia and all the other stuff a lot better
As Mo said, hope everyone had a great easter & the little ones (and the mummies) didn't eat too much chocolate!
Kellie i know hard the decision is, but i know you'll make the right one
If we ever have a 3rd i'll most likely be doing an induction as i can't afford not to be in hospital when i give birth.
If you go the induction route, ask if you have to be hooked up to the synto drip etc..
Mo - my ob seems to think that as T's labour was quick, all I need is for my waters to be broken, she'll then send me for a walk, and within a few hours contractions will start. She said I may need some gel as well, depending how favourable I am.
I asked about the drip and she said that she couldnt rule it out completely, but was pretty confident I wouldnt need it, but having to have it is what worries me!
special hi to trish, tiff, amber and anyone else I've missed... come back and tell us how you are doing!
had my ob appt this morning. Bubs is nowhere near engaged so dont think anything is happening any time soon. Discussed the induction idea again and we have booked it in for about 1.5 weeks away (keeping the date a secret!), as long as I am favourable. She is going to do an internal (yuk) to see how I am next Thursday, so fingers crossed all these braxton hicks are doing something.
anyway, i'm off to watch SYTYCD... hope Phillipe makes it into the top 4... droooooool....
Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't been in here for a while, just been busy. It's been school hols so I've been extra busy having Joel home and business is busy too. I hope you all had a great Easter! We went to Inverloch for the 4 days and had a great time (I'm sure you'd all probably know this due to all the pics I put on FB LOL).
We had a bit of a tummy bug last week. Joel got it on the Sunday, I got it mildly at the same time (luckily I just felt nauseous), DH got it on Thursday and K had a bit of it over the weekend. It seems to hang around! It was pretty mild luckily, although poor DH was the worst hit with awful tummy cramps. Alana has had an ear infection which has made her pretty unhappy. I'm missing my happy girl!
K is going great, still saying and doing cute things. Tonight he called out to me after I put him to bed and said "Mummy, you forgot kiss", so cute!. He LOVES going to the beach and after a trip there a couple of weeks ago he said "Mummy go beach again? Right now! Nah, just kidding Mummy!" I love this age, it's so fun!
Alana is crawling around like a pro and can pull herself up to standing now. She's growing up too fast! She loves playing outside and will stay out there for hours.
It's been nice having Joel home, I've been trying to keep him busy to keep away boredom. We've had lots of play dates and trips to the park. We always seem to run into someone we know at the shops or park, it's so good!
Anyway, just wanted to pop in and say hi to you all! I can't believe you're about to pop Kellie. You're pregnancy has gone so fast!
Hi girls, thought I better pop in and say hi in case you thought I was in a chocolate coma or something! This is my worst easter for choccy, cannot stop eating it, yum! Not helping with the kgs and I keep telling myself tomorrow will be a better day!
We went away for easter, was a great trip. Kids travelled great, 6 hours in a car is a long time but they were champions. We had to wake Luka there and on the way back for feeds, other than that he also slept. He is growing so fast, how do you keep them your baby for long I have no idea? He has a bad cold at the moment and is coughing a lot. DH has also been home sick with the same thing all week. Girls and I are fine so far touch wood!
Kellie - Wow so so so close. I can completely understand the whole induction thing, we as mums have so much more to consider when we already have kids. Good luck with it all!
Julia - How is Max? The doctors there sound as bad as some of them here. We had a weirdo the other day that took 30 minutes to do Luka and Mia's immunisations. He was so slow it was painful, he had to look stuff up online, never gives you a lot of faith when they do that!
Trish - You sound busy and I bet you are looking forward to Monday when you can get back to a routine. Mia has been bored these holiday's and really missing kinda. As am I !
Saffi - Well done on the egg hunt, I wanted to do that but since we were in a motel room it was a bit hard. My sister put my nieces eggs on the end of her bed and they woke up to her being covered in chocolate, it was almost gone, through her bed ... I don't think easter bunny will make that mistake again!
to everyone else. I better get back to bed, it is 6.30 here and has been the only chance I have had to sit down and post something significant!
Just popping in to say I know I keep brewaking my promise about staying up to date I jsut feel like I have nothing important to say anymore
Anyway...Kellie good luck hun you will do what you knwo is right for you guys , Trish hoppe the troops are feeling better , Jules poor Maxy is he better now , Kaz sound slike the trip away was great!
Hope evryone who is sick or has been isck is feeling better xxx
Had a good long weekend - my last before I go back to work. On Friday we went to the zoo, on Saturday the museum and L and M had their first train trips, and today we went to the beach. So a busy weekend here.
Easter sunday was good. The "Easter Bunny" visited at 4.15am and laid an egg trail around the house leading to L's presents. At about 6.30am L was woken up by M's crying, saw me and of course got up. Anyway, he followed the egg trail and was so excited. The little boy next door also had an egg hunt and it was so cute to see and hear them both.
Kellie - IKWYM about wanting to be organised. As my waters broke late at night with M we had to call DH's parents for them to come and look after L. They live about 45mins away. But both my labours have been really long - so long that my Mum was able to fly from interstate and get here before either of them were born.
Anyway, tried to get us organised for the morning. Wish me luck for tomorrow.
Saffi - good luck for tomorrow!
I am quite lucky in that my parents are only 5 mins away, as long as mum is home when the time comes, she should be able to get to my place quickly. Its if she isnt home that worries me!
Mo We all go back to Perth on the 23rd April (2 days before Kellies EDD....I'll use her ticker...minus 2!) I can't WAIT! I hear you on the parrot talk.... Maxy dropped something the other day and said "Oh S*&T!" Whoops!
Kellie You are definitely stuck between a rock and a hard place....having been induced with all the drips, I wouldn't recommend that, so can understand your reservation there, but on the other hand, I can see WHY you'd want to be induced too.....planning and being organised are big to me as well! If you 'knew' that you didn't have to have the drip then I'd go for an induction too probably....but I'd definitely have to know that it wouldn't be too drug induced IYKWIM.
Saffi Good luck tomoz You sound like you had a fabbo weekend!
AFM - We had our 'helper' start today....weird knowing someone else is around the house, but I think it will be OK. Max isn't very well...took him to the doc thinking he might have had Hand, Foot & Mouth...he has these awful pimples around his mouth (but not inside) and couple of random spots on his hands, he also gets them in the panty region. The doc didn't think that it was it.....but I am not sure. The doctors here are so annoying....they just send you away with a load of different drugs as potential remedy for what your kid MIGHT have....it is so annoying. If it's not HF&M...then anyone have a clue what else it could be? He's had a temp, the snots, what looks like a bit of a sore throat and now he has diarrhea (sp?).....Poor monkey...he's still being hillarious though!
Hope everyone else is well.....COME BACK everyone!!!
Kellie that's positive that she wont be forcing the drip on you. I only needed my waters broken & K was born 2hrs later, so maybe you'll be the same
Who's doing your BA?
Jules not long till your back home, i bet your looking forward to that.
Not sure about Maxxy, but i do hope he feels better soon.
Kodi got clothes & money and M got Clothes, Money, a DVD & Chocolate.
