That's no good about your friends, Erin. :( It's hard when you get drawn into their dramas. Hope the stress eases soon for you! How clever is Emily?! :clap: Have you posted any video of her walking on FB yet? I'll have to have a sticky! Matthew is very close to taking his first few steps unaided, I think. He's balancing without support for much longer now.
Yes very quiet!!! Everytime I come in hardly anyone has posted:shakehead:
Kerry we haerd bubba the first time we used it, had to chase her around a bit, got a little bit then she moved, so hunted for about 5 minutes, very nice to hear her and HB is going at a good rate 143BPM similar to the US . I am feeling her a bit but because they are still little flutters, sometimes its hard to be sure, so this is just added reasurance. It is in excellent cond and was ready to go, thanks so much...xxxxx
School holidays have finished here, back to kindy today for DS. Have a great trip to see DP, hope he makes an effort!!! Have'nt traveeled with a baby on a before, but I reckon lots of food :pa drink for take off and landing to equalize his ears and just up and move around a bit when you are in the air... with luck he might sleep???:pray:
Erin a couple of years ago I had a bit of high school drama with a long time friend :redface: so awful and embrassing, but sometimes these things happen, we are friends now but I am a lot more wary of her and it will never be the same.
Hi to everyone else I am 15 weeks /15 weeks 1 day depends on which scan /OB, that 1 day makes a huge difference.:lol: Got my ticker up and running first part is US pic, second part is ticker. Bye!!!!
Yay for 15 weeks Pam!!!
Kerry I don't have any of her walking will have to take some and put it up for you!
Is daylight savings messing with anyone else? I love it but it does take some getting used too!!
That's great, Pam!! :dance: I was starting to worry! Glad everything's in order. And congratulations on 15 weeks! :clap: What a fine looking u/s pic! How's DH, post vas?
Yes, good idea. Last time we travelled, I had a friend with me so that made it a little easier. I will try lots of food, drink and book, plus toys. Just think I'm going to have my hands full!!
Erin, I just hate daylight saving. At least this time everyone's just started holidays here because it really messes with the kids at the start. I will miss my long mornings at home. I was telling DP that I think it's a capitalist ploy to keep workers at work longer during summer. :lol: Joking!
Off to take Matthew for a walk in his stroller with the aim of getting him to sleep, as he hasn't had a proper nap yet and I have lots of packing to do! :rolleyes:
Hi girls!!
Erin - just wanted to say THANK YOU!!!! Remy's gift arrived and she's looking rather swish!!! Very cute, thanks!!
Pam - fantastic all's going well with bubs!!! Such a relief!! Keep well and try to rest.
Hi to everyone else!! Not a great deal to report from me - think I'm nesting, spring cleaning etc..... we are extending a bedroom to make way for the new bub, so have plenty to keep me busy. Am really feeling slow and large already, the more pregnancies the more pregnant you feel!!! This is definately my last one!!!
Hope you are all keeping well!!!
Lee xo
Hi everyone
Pam woo hoo for 15 weeks!! Love the ultra sound picture. It makes me all clucky. How are you feeling?
Kerry, I would take an activity bag, with a couple of new toys in it if possible. One thing that was really popular for mine was an old purse filled with card sized photos of different things. They love pulling it apart, looking at the pictures and searching for more. Hope you have a good trip
No daylight saving here so I don't have to worry about that. Great since Ashlyn is just moving to one sleep a day. That's a big enough change of routine for her atm.
Poor thing has got four molars coming through!! One is almost out and the other 3 are just big lumps. She has big gaps in her mouth because not all of the front teeth have come through. The best thing is she has finally started sleeping through at night!! It has taken a year but finally I am getting some sleep. I'm starting to feel normal again because everything was getting on top of me before. Hope it lasts.
Bye for now :D
Hi All
Pam I was only thinking of you 15 weeks congrats and well done, delighted its all gone well so far :) I still have those dresses and I will send them over I'm terrible I have been so busy lately. I joined a group of mothers fighting' to protect children here in Ireland and it is a full time job, I have been on the TV in Ireland and England. but I'm so tired now decided to take it easy this week and take a break from the computer and the girls got worried.
ezymay I feel the same head is screaming no no no but my heart says yes lol DH is a huge no though.
right I will have to come back later and read through all the replies going to be late and bring the boys to school
HEY girls!! Sorry I haven't been around, internet time has dwindled... been busy busy busy!!!
Ashton is walking and talking and has began to 'run' which is so cute. He's a cheeky thing and will look at you with the cheekiest smile when he knows he's doing something naughty!! His new word this week was "cudooool" for cuddle hehe adorable.
Big news here, Jamie and I are expecting a baby!! I'm about 6 weeks today :) Very very excited and hoping for pink pink pink to even out the 5 boys between us :)
Sorry no personals, Ashton has just gone to sleep so I better get cleaning!
Mel - congratulations again, eeeekkk, I can't even imagine being pg again.. I know this is definately it for me. Trying to convince df to get the snip now.. lets hope you have an easy pg and most of all it would be good to get a pink bundle. xx
Captain - yay for the sleeping, you sound as though you had a rough patch there.
Lee - whoa, you've got a bit on the go there, hope you find some time to rest up in between.
Pam - gosh your pg is going so fast too. Not long til the amnio now then, I am sure it is all good. Take care of yourself x
Kerry - Hope your trip is going well. I see that is so cold down there, we were boiling hot yesterday, had 37 last week and it's pretty cool this morning :rolleyes:. As for flying, for some reason as soon as Bella gets her seatbelt on and the plane takes off she thinks it's sleep time LOL. Other than that when she was awake a bit we let her play with stuff out of the plane seat like the plastic covered menu thing, her toys didn't take her interest LOL.
Erin - eeeep you might be the next bun in the oven then hey. cluck cluck cluck...
Niamh - I see on FB that you do so much campaigning I bet it's taking a toll on you. mmm, another chook on the cluck hey ;).
Well nothing new with us.. Have had a really bad back and have been struggling to look after Bella. She was so clingy last week I thought my back was going to break.
Still only 5 teeth and no sign of any more. She is walking around the furniture now and doing a few little stunts with her walker toys :rolleyes:. My heart is always in my throat but no huge stacks, yet...
Well gotta run.
Hi everyone
well, well Missymoo congrats and good luck with that little girl...it was only a little while ago i asked the ??? maybe I helped:lol: I think it is easy to get pregnant when you are'nt trying!!!! also when people ask you and when your bubs are at that cute stage or lots of people around you get pregannt for have newborns. (just my thoughts anyway)
Niamh, you are sounding so busy, good on you..
Sue take care of your back that alone would convince you not to have anymore. Dh got the snip, no big deal, had an involutry test that night:shakehead:while sleeping sorry if that is tooo much info and then tested himself a few days later apparently is working fine:redface: me just not interested, so the poor boy had to test himself.
Captain feeling good, abit of MS still in the avro probablly becasue I am tired, daylight savings is great but... always a problem with the kids getting into the swing of things.
Lee glad everyhting is going so well, I am looking forward to looking pregnant instead of too many cream cakes look.... am bigger than other pregancies so won't be long..Spring cleaning, early nesting... I am hiring a cleaner, too much effort to do it myself!!! :rolleyes:
Hi everyone else hope all is well, my amnio is next Tuesday, so looking forward to getting it out of the way and getting results back, so I can start to enjoy everyhting. Will be taking it very easy for a few days, so will post when i can. Thanks for the support xxx Pam.
Lee I'm glad you got it! I hope the weather warms up by summer time so she can get some wear out of it!!
Congrats again Mel!
Sue I really don't know when we will try for another one I am so clucky!! I wish it was warm here...its been so cold!
Pam I hope everything goes well on Tuesday! I'll be thinking of you.
Kerry I hope the trip to canberra is a good one!
Congratulations, Mel!! How wonderful for you, your new man and your beautiful boys! :hooray:
Good luck, Pam, for Tuesday. Will be thinking of you! :pray:
Suzie, hope your back is better and you're able to take it easy. Matthew kills my back too when he's being clingy, especially when we're out shopping or somewhere and he takes an active dislike to being in his stroller...
Niamh, I've been following the campaign a little on FB - good on you! I hope it makes a difference!
Tenille, that's a great suggestion about the purse and photos. Will definitely try that and the activity bag. Will need plenty of tricks up the sleeve because when Matthew starts lunging about, I'm hard pressed to hold him. Wow at Ashlyn getting molars through! Is she drooling heaps as well? Matthew is drooling so much, I've been checking to see if there's new bumps (much to his delight, because he loves to chomp down on fingers :p) or food lodged in his mouth... I'm jealous that you're getting good sleeps at night, too! Matthew sleeps no longer than 5-6 hours at the beginning of the night and then he wakes up every two or so hours for feeds. I'm exhausted all the time.
Back from Canberra - brrr, it was cold there! Didn't get to spend as much time with DP as I'd hoped but we got to see Matthew take his first steps on his own, which was brilliant. And DP got some special time with DS. I really hope I can swing a teaching job in Canberra (or near to) next year for all our sakes.
Hi All finally a few quite minutes if you can call them that 3year old and 1 year old up to mischief .
cheekyfrog Thanks its really hotting up now as we get nearer to the budget date lots to do its scary what ahead in Ireland now mas immigration is on the cards for many. we had a huge brain drain in the 80's another on the way now.
Pam good luck let us know how you get on, reading your post is making me laugh, we are finished our family but I was updating my chart and adding in when I had AF last I miscalculated I thought I had my AF the 26th of September and we had fun last Sunday the 4th and Tuesday 6th wasn't thinking about it and DH normally uses extra protection we were lax stupid may be:redface::redface: but we did not this time but I should of still have been ok. but I had AF on the 23rd so slap bang in my fertile time. by my normal calculations and signs I ov on the 8th so I guess I will know why if AF is late feel like a tool but calmer than I though I would be and I will worry and think about it when the time comes. I am still breastfeeding and it may effect my fertility. lord Im not even going to think any more on it shhhhhh its a secret ok LOL
Nicambhar what did I say on FB tha has given me away of being cluky LOL may be I missed that my self, its a good busy feel I am making a difference hopefully a good one for children here in Ireland how are you all OK now I hope :)
Mel congrats hope its a healthy and beautiful pregnancy so when are you going to do a gender poll I want to have a guess good luck with every thing wish you the very best happiness for you all :clap:
Hi all. Pam has just sent me the wonderful news and asked me to post it here for her - baby is healthy and a little girl! Woohoo!! :loveshower: :babygirl: :loveshower:
yay pam!!!!! Thanks for letting us know Kerry. I was wondering. That is great news.
That is Brilliant a little sister for Poppy whoo hooo well done Pam
Love the video on FB of Emily walking/running, Erin! Made me laugh! Also loved the one with her having fun with Daddy. Very funny!
Good luck, Niamh!
Was supposed to go to Griffith today for haircuts (me and DS) and shop for an outfit to wear to my brother's wedding at the end of the month but then I remembered that Matthew was booked in to have his 12 month immunisation needles. So postponed trip to Griffith to tomorrow, only to find that the community health centre wasn't open. Would have been nice to have got a call to let me know, although I suppose I should have double checked. Was very cranky! Whinge over!
Okay, better try to get Matthew to have a nap, he's very tired.
Hi everybody. I am really slack about coming in and actually posting. I do actually read everything but never seem to respond.
Pam congrats on a healthy girl :) :cheer: I have some stuff I put aside for you so hopefully I can meet you to give it to you
Mel Congrats on your great news! I did post in you announcement thread but never made it back here. All these new bubs are making me so clucky.
Niamh I have been reading about your campaign on FB too. Good luck with it all.
Sue How is your back going?
Everyone else I hope you are all doing well :) There isn't much to report from here. Moo has a few new teeth and more to come.
