Hugs mo xxxx
Message for Bambi - Mummy is ready for you to come out. Mo - I remember those last few weeks were so hard both physically and emotionally. It can't be too much longer. Have you settled on a name (I forget)? How's married life going (hehe)?
Hi everyone - how are we all doing?
Nothing much happening here. I've come down with a bit of a cold. Not too bad, but feeling yucky and all stuffed up. Considering this is my first cold all year I'm pretty lucky to just be getting one now.
Finally booked L into swimming lessons. He starts at the beginning of October. He'll be in the Nippers class (next one after the babies class) but I am confident given his age that he will quickly progress to where most kids of his age who have had lessons are. Going to hold off sending M to lessons until she is a little bit older. It's good timing with summer coming and hopefully spending time in the grandparents' pool.
Better be off and get the kids into bed.
Not even close Saffi, i thought we had a name but now i'm not sure i want to use it as it's becoming popular.
I'm hoping once she is born i'll just look at her know but i'll guess we will have to wait & see :)
Married life is going well, considering nothing has really changed lol
Yes i'm over it, i'm 37wks now so she can come out anytime, I can feel that my UC is going to flare soon & my body just isn't coping well at the moment.
I keep telling myself it's 4 weeks at the most, i can survive that long if i really have to :)
I'm sure L will love swimming classes :D
Boo
So quiet in here now, i guess it was bound happen soon but still i miss our active thread :(
Nothing much happening here, getting closer to meeting my little girl & i can't wait!
Maddi had her birthday party last Sat & she had a great time, we actually had 2 for her 1 at playgroup & 1 at home for family & close friends.
She had a ball & got a heap of presents so she was thrilled.
I'm glad i did it a week early now i can spend my last 2 or 3 weeks relaxing & not having to worry about making sure i have enough of everything etc...
Amber & Trish seeing as i have your mobile numbers i'll make sure i txt you after Bambi is born :D
I hope someone comes in & posts soon!
Hi Mo! Sorry I haven't been posting, I'm absolutely flat out atm! Stock arrives this arvo and I will be all ready to go!!! I've had 4 orders already so I can tell I'm going to be very busy :o.
Glad Maddi had fun at her parties :D. Not long until you pop now, I can't wait to hear the news!! Is someone doing your BA? If not, I'm happy to do it for you. Definitely text me with your news!!
Hi to everyone, I'd better run. I've got three kids home, Joel has tonsillitis :(. He went back to school for the first time this week this morning, but only made it to lunchtime before the school rang me to come pick him up. He's crashed out on the couch now. I thought he would be fine at school, he was good yesterday and this morning at home, but it was obviously too much for him.
Talk to you all again soon!
Mo - you must have had a sixth sense that Bambi would come early (so got hitched and M's birthday out of the way). Congratulations again BTW.
Trish - oh no for Joel. Touchwood - my kids have been really healthy lately. Good to hear that your business is doing so well.
Need to start thinking about L's birthday. He is supposed to have a party this year (we do alternate years with M having her party the other year). Given that it is on our MG day and all his little friends are from MG I might just do something a bit more special than our usual morning tea. What is everyone else planning? Can't believe he is nearly 4. He is such a preschooler now.
Anyway, its getting late and need to get my beauty sleep (big time LOL).
Yep Bambi is here but still no name.
Had a very quick & intense labour, Bambi had the cord wrapped tightly around her neck & came out blue and not crying.
Worse moment ever, took everything i had & more to not keep pushing when all my body wanted to do was push.
Also lost around 1.5 litres of blood & almost ended up in surgery but thankfully my loss started to slow.
Feeling very sore & my tummy is all bruised & swollen from the PPH.
We are both good now tho & that is all that matters.
We aren't going back for anymore, this labour was so hard on my body & i don't think i'd cope well with another birth like this.
Wow Mo, how traumatic. I'm glad to hear that you are both ok. But it must have been so scary to be told Bambi was blue and the cord around her neck. Anyway, rest up as much as you can.
I reckon you should stick with Bambi for a name - its cute!
Oh mo, how scary!
I'm so glad you're both ok.
Can't wait to hear her name.... How about Alice rose? Or is it too much like axel rose!! Lol!!
X
We went with Montana Rose.
Phil picked her 1st name & i got to pick her middle name as it was for my Mum.
It was scary, a lot happened & emotionally it did some damage & i never want to experience it again.
I pretty much lost all confidence in my body to do it right ever again.
Oh babe, I'm so sad to hear you're feeling this way.
I hope you can enjoy your new baby Montana without being tainted by her birth.
Make sure you ask for help, and de-brief if you need it xxx
I'm working through it Jules, tho it does make me sad that my last birth was such a crappy & scary one.
Bambi is doing so well, she is just a dream baby at the moment, i was afraid we wouldn't bond after her birth but if anything it made me much more grateful.
Both older girls are doing well, l'm so bored at home i can't do much as when i over do it my bleeding gets worse & i get some horrible tummy cramps.
The girls have been pretty good about it, which is surprising!
Hey ladies,
Poor you Mo, that sounds like a pretty traumatic time you had. If it's any consolation my last labour was my worst too. I don't want to do that ever again either. :hug: It's funny, i feel so much love for little Peppi, i wonder if it has to do with her being my last baby. She wants to be held all the time and i don't care i just want to kiss her little head! I love Montana Rose. Is that the name that is becoming more popular that you had before you had her? How did the pics go with Sam?
Happy 4th birthday to all the big babies in here. I can not believe how the time has flown. i got Lu a leapster explorer, she loves it. What did your babies get?
Ange it was horrible & i never want to experience anything like it again. I know next time i may have a wonderful labour & birth but there is a bigger chance of me having a quicker labour than 84mins & bleeding out worse.
That scares me.
I remember you telling me how hard your labour was, seems like we both had rough a pregnancy & birth :hug:
Montana was Phils choice, he wanted that name for Maddi & Kodi, he is sooo happy he finally got to pick lol
I feel the same, i'd happily hold her all day & i can't believe how much i adore her.
Omg you two please stop it, or I may need to procreate!!
Ange, I didn't realise you'd had a rough birth with peppi too.... Or did you mention it and I've forgotten?
I know, I can't believe our big kids are 4 (well almost). Max is getting a real (kid size) drum kit.... Which I may live to regret! Lol
Xx
Nah, i probably didn't mention it, I'm like that. :p Loving the new do. How long has you hair got??? How is D going Yules and K Mo? S is totally doing my head in....
Your not a sook like me ;)
K is totally doing my head in, talk about stubborn. She's not a drama queen but man is she strong willed.
M is being a total down right terror as well, Sometimes she is so good, she'll help with B but other times..... There are no words for it.
K & M fight like you wouldn't believe. Oh the joys.....
So ange you going to tell us now? Or are you over it? My hair grows like wild fire..... More than doubled in length in a year! Just needed a change, although max told me to put it back the way it was!
D is going well, she is so funny. M is also being a bit challenging at the moment. Dh keeps going away and I really think it's starting to take it's toll. When he was littler it wasn't so bad..... But now!! Gah! We had a set back with Kindy so he's bawling everytime we leave him again. He also still doesn't get along with D.
She now growls at him as a result...... Which he dobs on!!!
Kids..... Who'd have 'Em!
Mo, what's happening in your house!?
Hi everyone else xxxx
Hi all
Been lurking..... sorry ...not much to say.
Mo - sorry to hear of your horrific birth experience. But it sounds like Montana is making up for her arrival with being a dream baby.
We are fully into party season here. We have been invited to two 4th birthday parties from L's kindy friends. We're going to have a party with my MG crowd on his actual birthday, a family dinner in the evening, on the Friday a cake at DC and then on the weekend we are going down to the Gold Coast, staying at SeaWorld Resort and going there both days. The trip to the Coast is not for his birthday but well timed all the same. So I think all up he will have more than enough partying. We're giving him a scooter for his birthday plus a few other toys.
Got an M story. Yesterday was photo day at DC. I had it all planned what the kids would wear and timed it such that they wouldn't wear their photo clothes all morning before we went to DC. I got L dressed no problems, he let me brush his hair and teeth fine. When I tried to get M dressed in her cute little dress, she cried and carried on, refused to let me dress her, had me pull out all her clothes to persuade her to wear something else. By this stage I was totally over the whole thing and threatening not to go to the photos at all. In the end I packed them into the pram with a selection of her clothes thinking that the carers would have better luck in dressing her. Well, she was a perfect angel, willingly had her dress put on her, her hair done and when it came time for the photo was the perfect model. Why do they always turn into little horrors for their parents. I'm going to load some pics onto FB so you can see her all dressed up. She was too cute.
Hi to everyone and hope you are having a good day.
Saffi kids are so funny aren't they.
B is looking to be a silent chucker, doesn't bother her at all which is good.
I feed her then she'll kinda choke & then chuck, it's really strange.
Hi gorgeous friends, I'll BBL for a chat, but have to close this thread for now!
New one is HERE ;)
Hope you're all well!!
