not to worry kristie,how about you cindy,can you do anything to change your plans?
nikki
I havent got plans, just al doesnt finish work till 6.30 on saturdays and by the time we would get out there it would be about 8 and tori would be feral! I have asked my sister and mum if they could have tori for the night but both have plans! I also have Luke saturday for my friend libbie while she works so i couldnt even come without al! I dont have enough seats in my car for that many car seats! Sorry love, you know i want to be there, and al is rather disappointed he cant catch up with grant. Sundays are really the only days al is free to do anything which sucks totally coz we mis out on heaps of stuff due to his hours!
Anyway that was a big post about not much at all.
Oh, i forgot to say, i have gone the dummy way with charlotte and she is a much happier bub tonight compared to the last few, she is due for a feed about now though so must be off.
Love to you all
Hi Ladies
Cindy I am glad the dummy is working well for Charlotte. Jordan put me thru a week or so of constant overnight feeding before someone suggested a dummy. WOW at Tori being in a big bed, thats fantastic. I cant even imagine putting Jordan in one yet.
Krisite WOW at the 7 hrs sleep thats fantastic. Hope Louis had a big sleep for you this afternoon so he gets a better night sleep tonight.
Nikki Glad you had a great mothers day you certainly deserve it. Jamie and I will be there on the weekend. We will prob leave early to put Jordan to bed though as he turned into a feral at our mates the other night, something I havent really seen him do before.
Melissa bugger you didnt win on the scratchies, its nice to dream though. Glad you had a nice mothers day.
Missy OOH I am so excited for you .I really hope the IVF works for you and you are preg soon. FIngers crossed for you.
Linda YEAH about nearly being on holidays. You have been so busy it will be nice to take a break. Em is looking so adorable, love the new ticker photo. I am sure she is as sweet as she looks.
Well Jordan had good day with dad today. He has been in the cupboard today though and he nows carries a bag of chips around and munches away. So cute but so want to stop the habit.
We put up the pixie photos I got from mothers day. Heaven help us if we do have more kids as there wont be any room on the walls for any pics, Jordan is everywhere. LOL.
I have Kristen coming to babysit tomorrow whilst I go to the funeral. I am hoping she doesnt go into labour whilst she is here. AFTER is fine :)
Hip hop was great tonight and got home to one randy DH so got some BDing in aswell. Lets hope there is an egg somewhere that gets caught :)
have a great night. XX
Good luck Missy!
Tracey - lol at Jordan carrying around a packet of chips. Any sight of chips here and Benjamin's got them too. He takes the whole packet and sits in Dh's chair like a big boy and gobbles them down. So cute....but so naughty....
Cindy - Congrats on getting Tori to sleep in a big bed. Benjamin's in the transition phase of staying in his own bed at the moment too. It's nice to have room in your own bed, without having toes or fingers in your face belonging to a little one.
Benjamin has daycare today, so I'm child free. Dh is home only because the car needs work. We had to take it to the exhaust shop this morning because the front exhaust fell off yesterday and my car sounds like a V8 not the 4cyl that it is. My best mate thinks the noise is great, considering he is a cars man.
Melissa
Hi,
Just a quick one - Louis is cracking it at my feet! Had a shocker of a night last night - dylan wanted to feed a lot more! Prob a growth spurt. Still, I feel like crap - would have preferred another 6 hours - lol!
Cindy - Glad the dummies working with Charlotte! Found out playdays is near knox - Lewis Rd so between knox and scoresby road on the right...we'll have to try it out!
Tracey - Lol at Jordan with the chips. Yeah on the pixie photos! We're getting some more done soon! Hope this is your month!!
We dtd last night...wasn't too keen but dh has been bugging me...I told him to leave me alone for at least a week now!! LOL!
Melissa - LOl at benjamin with the chips as well. They're such clever little things. I don't let Louis go and get food but I gave him a yoghurt yesterday to hold onto for a second until he sat in his high chair and he straight away peeled the lid off...I was very surprised!
Gotta go and try and have a shower...
Oh my god Kristie on DTD already! We went food shopping last night and we got to where the condoms are and al stopped and would nt move till i chose some! I have told him (and i know im mean) that he has to lose 5kg before he gets any! He is so packing on the weight at the moment! Hopefully that works as motivation!
We will definately have to check out playdays!
well, i have finally got a quiet house so i am going to go jump in the shower, i am shopping with mum today, usually means lots of money spent by both of us!
We had a bad night with tori last night, she ended up in bed with me and then she chucked up all over the bed which was just lovely and she was devistated by it too as you can imagine.
Charlotte was great though, only used the dummy to get her to sleep early in the night and then didnt need it!
Must get going
Kristie - We limit the chip packets that come into this house, because I'm not ment to eat them, considering I'm trying to lose weight at the moment. Benjamin is in fact a yoghurt addict. He knows how to get the lid off too and where I hide them in the fridge. He'd eat them all day if he got a chance.
Cindy - Poor little Tori...She hasn't got the vomiting bug has she? Have fun shopping by the way.
Melissa
Hi!
Cindy - I know...but he was just getting so annoying!! LOL! How silly am I though - No protection! I know the chances are really slim that I would get p/g now but geez I'd die if I was one of those unlucky people - LOL! What a good deal making Al lose weight - why didn't I think of something like that???
Hope you have fun shopping!
Sorry to hear Tori was so sick...poor little thing!
Melissa - LOL - we very rarely have chips/choccies in the house as well as I just eat them all until they're gone!! hehe. I think Louis would eat anything all day if given the chance! hehehe.
Just got a nap in! Yeah. I was curled up on the couch cuddling my little man! So nice. I wish Louis would let me do that with him every now and then. He very rarely wants cuddles not unless he's hurt himself or is grizzly...
Hi girls, Sorry I haven't been able to post over the past few days. Something has been happening and my posts keep getting lost. My monitor keeps going into "power save mode" all on it's own and then when I get it back on I seem to have lost my post. Aghhh. No idea why it's happening, or how to stop it. Seems to have a mind of its own! Sooo annoying. Anyhow, will spend some time now catching up on your news. Hope everyone is well and that your kids and bubbas are thriving. Will come back on to do personals a bit later once I'm up to date. Have been struggling to read posts to with the power save issue. Hopefully it will behave today. Any suggestions on how to fix this will be super greatfully accepted!!! If you don't hear back from me for a while it's cause the prob continues.
Well Kristen went into labour this morning, I am so excited but so inconvenient as she was meant to babysit whilst I went to the funeral this afternoon :) LOL i laughed when she rang this morning. DH has taken the day off so he looked after Jordan.
The service was really nice and there were heaps of people which was really nice. I guess you dont realise how much a person impacts others lives until something like this happens. :( He was such a great bloke and so young as well.
Krisite Glad you got a nap in and some cuddles. I know what you mean about Louis not wanting cuddles. Jordan isnt still enough nowaday to get many cuddles.
Cindy I hope Tori is feeling better and you all get some sleep today.
Melissa thats great benajmin loves his yoghurt there are worse things he could steal from the fridge. :)
I noticed today Jordan is now copying the wiggles and their danves, so cute. I cant wait to go to the concert. He is also walking funny at times like he has a peg leg. I dont think anything is wrong it just looks odd.
Waiting to hear news from Kristen I cant wait to see her bubs.
Hi all
Well had my collection yesterday and didnt feel a thing untill late athernoon. Just alittle bit of pain, Like a bad period pain. Slept ok and abit sore today but nothing bad. Im alittle disappointed as they only got 8 eggs but I guess that is better then 1 or evern 0. Just waiting for the FS to ring to let me know if they fert. God I hope My little ones are fert and growing.
Hi!
Just a quick one...I'm sooo tired. I let dh sleep last night so I spent a sleepless night on the couch with Dylan...grrrr. He has one bad night and whinges and I'm nearly 4 weeks into it now....He's just been really unsettled at the moment which makes things a bit tough...
Missy - Crossing fingers for you! I'm sure all will be great!
Kirsty - So glad to hear from you! Hope you fix your computer problems...
Tracey - It's always the way!! How exciting for her though! How cute Jordan dancing to the wiggles!
Going to try and have a shower...without fail Dylan wakes up each time I'm in the shower but I have to have one! LOL!
Kristie you porthing, you must be exhausted. I actually had a good night last night, the whole dummy thing is really working for me, i am using it for her to get to sleep and then i yank it out of her little mouth! Last night she was really good and did a 6 hour stint followed by a 4 hour one so i am actually feeling the best today taht ai have for ages!
Missy - my fingers are crossed for you!
OH, got to go, tori is chasingthe dog and all i need is for her to lose an arm! Not that i think he would bite but if she hurts him who knows! She has such an evil laugh!
Well it ended in tears!! She followed the dog under the table outside ans proceeded to stand up and nearly knock herself out with the table.
kristie,hang in there sweety,tis hard the first 3 months .soon you will have him in a settled routine.i have a shower when dh gets ready for work at 6am,otherwise i dont think i would get to hqave one eather,it gives me just a bit of time to have a cuppa and dress before the clan wake.that way i feel far more motivated and can get on with everything else.
kirsty sounds like your internet security needs tweeking.hope you and gus are well.
tracey,wow,that just doesnt happen,how exciting for kristen,i hope she has a speedy labour.
i cant wait for the dorothy show also.i am assuming that you have got your tickets?hope the funeral goes well and he is remembered in a cheerful loving way.
chantelle has been terrible at nights for the past week or 2 and is starting to get frustrating.not sure what is bothering her.
cindy hope you guys are all well.
missy,congrats on a successful procedure,good luck with the results,how did it all pan out when you did the same with callum,you7 must fill us in on the journey you took to conceive him and we can compare the 2.
nikki
:wave:
Just thought I would come by- its been a while. Bub is now 18mths :o
He has started using the toilet yet doesn't speak much he can still communicate well enough. He is feeding often yet he eats a lot too. Very cheeky! :D
Hi!
Just a quick one as I just can't seem to focus...
Went shopping again today (omg I'm sooo naughty - no wonder we're in debt!) I bought Louis this cool Quiksilver jumper and t-shirt....so trendy! LOL! We had some nori rolls for lunch and a banana smoothie and Dylan slept most of the time so it was nice to just chat with Louis. He's such a gorgeous boy...I hope he understands why I'm so busy at the moment - hehehe.
Cindy - Wow on such a great sleep - I hope it stays that way for you! Poor little Tori...she's such a little cheeky!!
Nikki - Thanks - I know - it's only for such a short time really...Sorry to hear Chantelles waking..Louis has been waking a couple of times a night as well at the moment. He actually cried last night when I walked out but I just left him and he stopped after 5 seconds. I just can't deal with him sleeping badly as well!!! At least he just wants his dummy...It's such a funny time for him with a new little bubba in the house - I think he's doing really well considering...
Gobblygook - Wow on your bubba using the toilet! How clever!
Best go and start dinner...
just a quickie
Missy glad the procedure went well I hope it turns out well for you
Krisite i hope you get more sleep soon. I am sure it will settle down soon. LOL about your shopping
Cindy glad to see the dummy thing is working for you. OUCH about Tori and the table
Nikki I hope chantelles sleeping improves for you. Yes we do have tickets to the dorothy show
Kirsty nice to hear from you hope all is well.
Well went to see kristen tonight, she had baby girl yesterday, Mia Charlotte. She is a cutie, looks just like mum. So cute. Jordan wanted to push the basinette thing around whilst she was in it OOPS
just got back from dancing I am knackerd off to bed hopefully then back to work tomorrow. Only 1 more week of this craziness.
night night
Hi!
A bit of a better night in some respects - Dylan decided to go at least 4 hours between feeds but wouldn't settle after his 4am feed - took about 1 1/2h! Seems he loves to be with his mummy. He hasn't slept on his own at all. I've always been someone that doesn't co-sleep but it seems to be the only way he has a good one...I just feel so uncomfortable and I don't sleep that well though...He's going to be a big mummys boy I think! LOL! Louis never really wanted a bar of it...
Tracey - Yeah on Kristen having a little girl! LOL at Jordan wanting to push the bassinette....Glad you had fun at dancing!
Try and scoff some brekky now!
Hi all
Well out of 8 follies 5 fert. So im off today at 1 to have 2 put back in. Im excited and scared at the same time. I will let you know.
Niki, With Callum we had 13 Follies and 11 fert. But when we went to have 2 put back in 2 days later 7 had gone so left us with 4. We had the 2 put back in and I fell first time with Callum. Im hoping the same goes with this one.
Will bbl to let you know if all 5 servived.
missy - good luck - sounds promising though doesnt it??
Kristie - I say do what you have to do to get some sleep! If co sleeping is how is it goingto happen, atleast you are both getting some shut eye!
Tracey- how cute is jordan wanting to push the bub araound! Hows the baby making going for you? are you at the stage of not wanting any more sex yet?
Nikki - hows the house? When are you going to have your bbq now? al wants to do another one here on a sunday in the next few weeks so let me know when one would work girls!
Must get going, the princesses are sleeping and i have kim (from bellybelly) coming over soon so i should do some tidying! Had to get on her eand say hi first though.
Kristie just so you know - kim has chesea who is 5 months and is 4 months pregnant again! Just goes to show it can happen that soon after having a bub! She actually found out she was pregnant at her 6 week check up.
What do they do at that check? I have booked it with my doctor but cant work out what it would be for.
Hi!
OMG Cindy - you've just freaked me out!!!! I'm sooo scared now! LOL! I think I'd have a heart attack! hehehe.
Yeah I'm basically doing whatever it takes. He really does seem to sleep better in the bouncer so we're going with that again...
Umm I can't remember my 6w check up. I think they just check over bubs and do a general check on you. They also check if you've got stitches etc/do a pap smear if your due, prescribe the pill/birth control...Someone might have some more to add to that...
Missy - Good luck! Sounds good though...
yep that just about covers it,they also ask a couple of questions just to make sure that you dont have PND.
OMG about kim.is she freaking out,my god her babies will be close.remember the same thing happened to katkins.
we are free any sunday after footy,corey usually finishes at about 11am so about 1pm onwards.we would love to come.not sure when we are re scheduling but will prob make it a sunday also so that cindy can come!!!!!!probably next weekend but i will check with grant first.
ok off to preston,taking james to buy some basketball gear.$$$$$$$$$$$$$
nikki
On the kim thing, she actually handled it well, there will be just andi mean just 11 ,months between them and i dont think she really realised how hard it may be untill today when she came over and had tori all over chelsea etc! She is excited about it though. I remember it was abit of a shock at first though as you can imagine!
Kristie - i didnt want to freak you out, just make you be careful next time! Al has been bugging me the last few nights but i am saying no untill we have the contraceptives worked out
ON the BBQ - like you nikki i will talk to al about a weeekend. We are free this weekend though if you have yours?
God i hate this cold wet weather! I was just talking tp a friend up on the coast and he said its lovely up there, he was playing tennis and evreything! I so miss the coast (nobody let al know that though or we will be moving back there tomorrow) but mainly for the weather, most of my friends up there have moved further up north or down here now! I could never leave you girls anyway!
Well, i am off to get tea cooked or we will end up with take away for a 3rd night in a row! I am in need of proper food tonight i think.
Hi!
Gorgeous piccie Cindy! How fast is the time going??? I can't believe it!
We got our first smiles today!! I was so excited. I wasn't sure but he did it twice and dh was there to see and he reckons it was as well. I was doing silly voices/faces when he did it as well and it was a whole face smile iykwim not just a windy looking one!!
He's been so unsettled today - I hope he sleeps ok tonight...
We're having takeaway tonight! Fish and chips - healthy hey? hehehe.
I told Michael about Kim and he's like - that wouldn't happen to us - Yeah right!! It can happen to anyone!! I know it sometimes doesn't matter but was she bf??
Yeah, we're mostly free on weekends...This weekend we're away and next weekend we're doing stuff for my b'day and our anniversary though...after that I'm free for ages at this stage...
It was so dark and miserable today...I'm so not a winter person - although I didn't cope to well with being p/g and hot weather either - LOL!
I think I'm going to give Louis a break next term from swimming - cos it's at night and we'll be right in the middle of the cold weather - but was wondering if anyone had some ideas with something to replace it with??? We've done gymbaroo so I was thinking maybe music or something?? Any ideas would be appreciated!!
Nikki - Hope you didn't spend too much money!!
Chat later...
mmmmm.yes i spent too much money.
nikki
Ok im back from having ET done and all is good. I had the 2 put back in and we lost 1 but have had 2 frozen. The doc said they were good ones and looked great. They didnt rate them as he wasnt the doc that did it in the first place. But he did say they were 4+ sells so that is good for 1 1/2 day old embies. So Im in the TWW now and if I havent got AF by the 4th I go for BT. Im so excited and cant wait for the TWW to end.
missy,fantastic,OMg you must be so excited.so does that mean you have 1 or 2 fertilised eggs inside you?ooohhh i cant wait for the news.bet this will be the longest 2 weeks of your life.GOOD LUCK HONEY.
nikki
Hey Nikki
I have 2 fert eggies in me. Im sooooooooooo excited. And yes this TWW is going to be the longest. I just hope its all worth it in the end. Im abit scared but trying to stay Pos(++) ..
Thanks so much for the excitment you have been showing. Its nice to see others are excited for me too. I havent told my side of the family and only DH side know. But they have been wonderful. I want to tell mum but after the last ectopic she doesnt think I will be able to handle a BFN so I just decided not to tell my side. I want to talk to her and let her know. You know how it is us girls need our mothers...:cry:
Missy thats excellent news I hope all goes well for you and the eggs stick
Nikki LOL about spending lots of money. It doesnt take much at all these days to spend a fortune.
Krisite sounds like a good idea co sleeping if you can get some sleep. I am sure Dylan will settle in his cradle/bassinette soon enough. In the mean time get rest when you can :)
Cindy Not much BD happening this month actually so looks as though its a dud month. Good to see you are doing well though.
Well 1 more day of work and then back PT for a week. Its been crazy the last couple weeks. I feel like I have lived at that place, its terrible.
I am doing good. Talked to Jamie about getting OPT next month but he doesnt want me to get all obsessed again TOO LATE :) So we will take it as it comes and I am trying not to count cycle days and just be romantic.
Cant wait for the weekend so I can relax and chill out with my boys.
Night night
Hi!
Wishing lots of luck Missy! I'm sure you'll be successful!!
LOL Nikki at spending too much money...
GoodLuck Missy! I hope the TWW just flies past for you :pray: Now is the time to find things to do...Shopping, read a good book, get on here and natter to all of us...You know the drill...
Melissa
Thanks so much ladies. just a update
18th May
Ok day 2 of my TWW ( is it my day 2 or 1) not sure. or 1 1/2 days...lol...oh well will say day two. Im feeling good and im so Pos (+++) and im convinced that I will be pg at the end of this TWW. Not much to tell. Just taking it easy and doing lots a praying. Only problem I have is bloody DH keeping me up with his snoring......gggggrrrrrrrrrrr.....
Hi!
Had Dylans mchn check up - He's gained 742g in a f/n and now weight 4.602kg!! OMG! Big boofa...no ideas on why he's sleeping so bad though...Oh well...I guess I just have to deal with it...Can't last forever!
Hope you're all well!
Kristie- wow on dylans weight!! He is a boofa isnt he! thats about a kg more than charlotte at her 4 week check. Sorry to hear the sleeping still sucks, at least you know he is growing well though.
Well i have just been to the dentist and spent $1500! Oh my gosh and that was mates rates from my old boss! Then went shopping and spent more on stuff i so dont need. I did try to get some clothes for me but i dont like what is in the shos at the moment, none of it would be good for feeding or it looks like maternity wear and i dont want to look like that anymore! It did open my eyes to myu need to lose weight though, nothing like those change room mirrors! Starting next week i am going to start walking every day and i am going to do my fit ball dvd workout too! Lets see how long i can keep it up hey! I'm no good at dieting so im not even going to pretend im going to do that!
I must get going, i have hair dye on my head and its starting to burn and itch! I am out tonight for dinner with my boss and the others at work to celebrate the practices 2nd birthday! It will be nice to go out and have adult conversation again! I am leaving tori with her dadda and just taking charlotte with me!
Hi!
Heading to bed soon...
Cindy - Hope you didn't burn your head - LOL! Dylan had a big arvo sleep and seems a bit more settled tonight so cross fingers. Maybe it was just something i ate a few days ago?? Omg at spending so much at the dentist!!! I'm not that fussed on clothes in the shops either at the moment...just sticking with trackies and hoodies - lucky it's winter! LOL!
Good luck with the walking - my gym membership starts up again in 3 weeks. There's no way I'll get out walking in the cold weather - I'm such a sook!
Have fun out for dinner!
kristie,give me your address and i will send you some disposable nappies.they are for boys and are size 4-8 kilos.harry is still well within that weight range but they are a different brand and are too small.there must be atleast 20 there.no point waisting them when they could be used on dylan.dont worry about postage or anything,tis my treat.
i took harry and corey to sign up with tinlids today,she took one look at corey and was very excited indeed..i also signed chantelle up for another year as her membership expired in 2 weeks.corey was pretty happy as he got to have a day off to meet carolyn today.me bad!!!!yes i was in box hill.it wasnt until i left this morning that i realised that i should have called kristie and cindy and popped over for coffee.we stopped at kfc for lunch and all of a sudden i noticed that harrys ear (TMI) warning was absolutly full of puss.it was really thick and yellow,definantly not wax and it was seaping out everywhere.at first i panicked cos i thought it looked really bad but then had a think about it,he wasnt unhappy or running a fever so have decided to just wait and keep my eye on it.there has been a bit more since but he is still content.
he is due for his 4 month immunisation as he is 4 months old today.
nikki
hey girls, long time no chat. Been so busy renovating I can harly get on here for long enough to check my email and do a quick read thru! Conrats on becoming mums for the second time Kristee and Cindy! WOW, time has sure flown, it feels like only yesterday you were all announcing ur pgcies!!!! And now you have healthy bubs in ur arms. I am so happy for you! It's hard having two young ones isn't it? Hehehe. But so worth every minute!
Hoping those wanting a BFP get one soon and I will try to get in here more often and keep in touch better. Sorry guys! Love to all!!!
Hi!
Just a quick one - we're off to the PIL shortly (dh is just getting us some new tyres - I'll feel so much better now!!)
Dylans seems to have settled a little - went 5h/5h/3h overnight! Woohoo! Hopefully he keeps it up. I really think it must have been something I ate that made him so unsettled those couple of days...
Louis just had a tumble off the couch...little cheeky kind of cartwheeled off - lucky we have a soft toy in the corner. He cried more out of fright I think as I couldn't see any marks and of course wanted to jump straight back up and throw himself around again - boys!! LOL!
Nikki - Thanks! Ummm I'll give my po box...PO Box 4405 Ringwood Vic 3134! Sounds like a nice day out with the kids - I don't think it hurts for them to get a day off ever now and then!! Gosh..Louis' must expire soon as well..I'm not sure whether I'll join again.. alot of money...I got my pictures!!! hehehe. We shall see.
Ooh Sorry to hear about Harry - I hope it doesn't turn into anything...Wow at Harry being 4 months already - I suppose that means Dylans 1 month tomorrow! I can't believe how much quicker the times going this time around. I mean the time with Louis went fast but this time's going 10 x faster again....I think because I'm so much busier than with just 1!
Kerrie - Great to hear from you! How are the girls?
K - better get organised while Dylans having a snooze - Not sure how we'll go with 1 1/2h drive but we should be right! Catch up with you all on Monday arvo!
Well dinner was really nice, it was gret to have adult conversation for a change and not have to worry about tori. Charlotte got lots of cuddles but was way overstimulated by the end of it and beside herself on the way home so i ended up staying at mums fo rthe night rather than drivingthe 45mins home with her upset. she ended up sleepingright through, only woke the once and hada 10 min top up and back asleep till 8.30. Tori and al had a nice nigth without me which is good, they dont get any time alone while im not at work now. I will be going back starting the next financial year, so anothe 6 weeks at home at this stage. i just want to get charlotte into a bit of a routine before i start back but i do miss my work lots!
Kat - good to see you back here! too cant believ i have a bub already, that second pregnancy flew by!
Kristie- good ot hear you got some decent sleep last night, i wonder what you ate?
Nikki- oh course caroline wanted corey - he is a good looking boy! I hope harry's ear doesnt turn out to be something yuck!
I soooo cant believe you were on our side of town and didnt hook up! How rude!!!!! sounds like it was a nice day though. Have you ben paid yet for that first shoot?
Tracey - another week of work over for you! are you part or full time next week? when are we all going to be able to catch up?
WEll i have no plans at all this weekend which is already annoying me, i go crazy if i'm not doing something and out of the house. Anyone got any suggestions for us for tomorrow??
best be off, my girls are sleeping and i am thinking of geting a nap too!
