    Hi Ladies

    Sorry been MIA for a while, Madeleine has been so sick for the last 2 months. We've been back to the doctors every week and they have put her on antibiotics, asthma medication and a few other things and nothing seems to work, spent our first night in emergency last week as she was bruning up coughing her lungs up, sleeping 20hours a day and not eating a bite... we are still no closer but are hoping this lot of antibiotics are going to work this time. We are due to go on holiay in 2 weeks so hope we don't have to cancel but wont be much fun if she is so sick. We think it's been the childcare that has made her so sick as she seems to be bad after we pick her up... I feel so guilty for going back to work, if only we could afford not too... I'm back 4 days now and struggling.

    Congrats to those who are pregnant, I really want another but bub being sick, our jobs a little shakey in this climate it's all on hold for quite a while.

    Lauren, what a fright hope liberty is getting better now

    Sorry for lack of personals got to catch up

    CJ - oh no, hope you don't have to cancel the holidays, sounds like you just might need them.

    Ez - Yeah, I feel pretty lucky, I read so many mums trying to cope with the sleep deprivation and feel thankful. I would be stuffed if she didn't sleep cause i don't have anyone to hand her over to for a break.

    to all. Not long til we are singing to our not so little one's. I can't believe that time has just gone so quick. I was looking at Bella's 000000 outfit that she came home from hospital in the other day and felt really sad. I have also sold her baby rocker/swing on e-bay and almost cried when the lady picked it up..... no, I don't want anymore babies PML, just getting sentimental....

    hi!!!US yesterday 1 baby measuring 6 weeks 4 days, so I must have had a very long cycle?? Cause it seemed I was weeks overdue, HB 126BPM.. I have been having some very minor bleeding but it is stressing me to the max!!!!I ripped DH head off last night...I should really apologise but.... I don't want to (redface)you know how men bring this on themselves... but I just did'nt stop when I got started!!! It was all about my tummy??? It seems to already have potted out compared to how it was looking a few weeks back and I had started to fit into my old clothes , no hope of that now.. and DH said, well it is'nt the baby its a speck!!! Welll that was it, worst thing is he probablly is right, although I have only put on 800grams and it look smore like 5kgs, so not happy, anyway it go tme down and he paid for it!!! Darn pregnant hormones!!!

    Lauren, your time will come.. you have lots of years up your sleeve and when it is time you will really enjpy it.. the wait is worth it...I am excited but down about this one cause it was'nt planned and it is taking a bit to get me head around it, especially when Dh was booke dfor a vas, I wa getting used to that idea then find myself BFP, kind of turns your world upside down!!! Poor Liberty and you / DH very scary experences, DS spent 10 days in royal childrens on a breathing stuff caus ehis croup turned into RSV, I hope she's better soon...Hopefully this means she will get less bugs later on..

    Sue I hear you on the feeling upset selling all the baby stuff, I just got through selling all my maternity clothes, and newborn clothes, doppler etc when I found I was BFP!!! doh always the way...
    Have great holiday.

    Candy Jay, sorry to hear all you sickness problems, a major worry... I am sure you are right about childcare, my eldest always was sick...I hope bubs is okay soon, the last thing you want is ongoing meds....

    WWWWWHHHHHHHOOOOPPPPSSS look at the time!!!
    I have to go I'm late to get DS from kindy, I will update when I get back and finish my personals. SORRY!!!!

    Back...Ezymay, sounds like Em is really going ahead in leaps and bounds, osunds like you had a lovely trip, always nice to have a break we have'nt had one for awhile.

    Missymoo good luck with your friend, hope things are going well, sounds like a really nice guy.

    Poppy is getting close to crawling... up on her hands and knees moves her hands but does'nt know what to do with her legs?? Rolling everywhere then sits up and pushes herself a bit on her bum and pivots then rolls and gets up on hands and knees, pretty much can get where she wants to. Still only 2 teeth ,1 top tooth was partly through but has gone back? Other than that no other news...
    Catch you all sometime soon, hi to everyone else hope all is well.

    Hey everybody. Sorry I haven't been around much. Mum passed away nearly 2 weeks ago so I have been busy dealing with that.

    I just had to come tell you that, after lamenting that Molly just didn't seem to move around, she started to crawl the day mum passed and within a few days of doing that she started pulling herself to standing but only on certain things.

    I will try and catch up on this thread when I get some time.

    Take care all

    Oh Donna I'm so very sorry to hear about your mother. I kind of gathered from facebook but wasn't 100% sure. Big hugs to you.

    Donna, I'm so sorry. That must be so tough. Big hugs for you and the Moo.

    Sorry I haven't been posting much lately. Have been lurking though and trying to keep up with everyone. Pam, hope you're not stressing too much. How wonderful to see that little twinkle of a heartbeat again. I still have my doppler, let me know if you'd like it and I'll bung it in the post to you. Don't worry about the weight, your body knows what it's doing and that's preparing a good home for the new bubba.

    Erin, being back at work full time is really tough, I just never seem to catch up on anything. I'm fantasizing about taking tomorrow off, dropping Matthew to the sitters and coming home to have a good sleep. I won't do it though, because there's a group of kids at school that are counting on me turning up every day because I'm the facilitator for their team in a competition. I so need a good sleep though. I'm also missing being with Matthew. At times it feels like I've handed over that important job of bringing him up to someone else.

    Suzie, hope you have a lovely time in NZ (Q. Where do cows go for their holidays? A. Moo Zealand...) Happy packing!

    Candy Jay, sorry that Madeleine's been so sick, I hope the new lot of antibiotics does the trick. Matthew's on antibiotics too for a cough that's lingered now for more than four weeks. Thinking of getting a referral to see a paediatrician in case it's asthma.

    Lauren, love the little green patterned skirt you made for Liberty, she looks so cute. Scary ambulance ride for her. I hope she's on the mend now.

    Mel, woohoo on being happy with your new man And hurrah on being able to get Ashton resettled on the boobie. Stupid doctor!

    Lee, lovely, lovely news about the scan. Hope you're really living it up and enjoying yourself in France. Make us all really jealous!!

    Niamh, hahaha about Eireann and the sock pulling. Matthew's just the same. It's the hugest game for him. I've had to put slippers on over the top of his socks to keep them on him. Be all right, if it weren't winter!

    I've organised an appointment for Matthew to have his first haircut on Saturday. Those of you on FB might have seen the pictures I've posted of his wild looks in the morning. Need to get the hair out of his eyes.

    Must go, lots to do and I'm so very tired!

    Donna - I am so very sorry to hear that your mum has passed away. to you and your family and just know that we are all here for you during this tough time xx

    Kerry - LOL, MooZealand. DF keeps asking if I am going to pack my Jandals LOL, will need to bring out the german in me and wear socks with them though cause it's freezing over there

    Pam - Oh just the bloody way, to sell all your baby stuff. The day my power swing went I thought I was pg. The one time we dtd and stoopid df has to be irresponsible with the protection IYKWIM... glad to hear that you saw the hb on the u/s, would be a big relief.
