Lol how horrible :( Poor Liberty :( :hug: to you all. Yay for twinkling her fingers, that's sooo cute!! I can just imagine, and cuddling toys haha that's cute too! Ashtons also started saying Ta but it's when you give him something, not when he gives it to you. It's cute, sounds more like da then ta but I know what he means haha
Oh Lauren poor liberty and all of you! I hope her weight picks up soon. I am terrified of Emily getting sick!! Scary stuff.
Pam love the new Av!
Niamh how awful to have those burns! If they are getting itchy doesn't that mean they are healing??? I hope they don't scar to badly.
Captain LOL at chasing Ashlyn round trying collect her pee! I hope they find out what's causing it the rash.
Donna how exciting! Can't wait to see the announcement! I am super clucky at the moment but know its not the right time for us.
Kerry Matthew will be quite the jetsetter! You need to come to Sydney!!!
As for us we are not sleeping well at all!!!!!!!! Well Emily's not sleeping so I'm not sleeping! I'm not sure what's going on but I am going to ring the sleep school tomorrow. I think we need help.
Its prob not that bad to others but I find it really hard to cope. I feel sick and anxious every time she stirs. If she just needs a little resettling its not to bad but waking up and 3am and being wide awake and wanting to get up is not ok!!! I go back to work soon! I need sleep.
Other than that in this past month she seems to have really grown up with clapping, pointing, head shaking, blowing raspberries (video on facebook) and this very cute scrunchy face.
We are planning her first birthday and dedication. Its going to be fun...hopefully not stressful!
Hi girls, just wanted to quickly come in and let you all know I haven't skipped town, though I would like to right now.... Bella cut 2 top teeth and it was sheer friggin hell and I was tempted to list her on e-bay until she broke out in a rash and it looks as though she has german measles.. poor bubba has been screaming day in and day out. Took her to the hospital and they just put me at the end of the que even though bella hadn't had fluid for 2 days, had stopped weeing and had high fevers that I couldn't control.
Looks like she is on the mend now, might take her to the my gp just to check her over..
I wil attempt personals one day soon i promise, have to go and call the plumber, have water spewing out of the kitchen and also need to call energex cause something has blown up in the fuse box and I have buzzzing walls :rolleyes:.. take care xx
Hi girls..
SSSShhhhhh!!!!!!
:tmi::confetti::crying:lah lah lah lah:hide::jawdrop::heartbeat:
Very mixed emotions when I got a:bfp:this morning...
DH was suppose to get snipped onthe 3 July but forgot to go? and now here I find myself...just a waiting game my body is going to do its usual bleeding thing, but the others are here and maybe this one is supposed to be??? I have no idea about dates, just felt like AF should be here and tested not really expecting to see 2 lines... needless to say I am like a bear with a sorehead...:doh:
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!PAM!!!!!!!!!! Congrats!!! But i can understand your apprehension given everything you've been through. WOW! What a shock for you. Big hugs.
Hi girls!
Something told me to pop in and say hello today - and then I saw Pam's news!!! FANTASTIC !!! What a huge surprise Pam - congratulations - and you are right, if this one is meant to be it will be!! I really hope you don't get any bleeding this time around, but you know if you do, then that's just normal for your body - one day at a time! Wow, I wonder how far along you are? I'm so glad you will be joining me in the crazy house with another gorgeous bubba!
Sorry girls I have not read back over everybody's news - I hope you are all doing okay!
Ezymay - I went shopping today and got Emily something - but when I got it home I realise how gigantic it is (to post!!) so am having a re-think, and might keep it for Remy!! and get Emily something more postable!!! But at least I'm getting organised!!!
We head off to France in 1.5 weeks - so much to do - will be so glad to be out of the Tassie winter and the chances of catching swine or any other flu are greatly reduced in the heat of the european summer.
I'll be checking in more to see how you are going Pam!
Lee xo
Holy moly Pam, what wonderful news. Lets hope that this pg will be a bit less exciting than the last hey.. congrats hun xx
Lee - bon voyage, wishing you a lovely holiday.. DF is planning a trip to france in 4 years time for the 100th tour de france, he is a cycling nut.
We are well again and getting together some warm clothes for our trip, doesn't get too cold here so need to buy some extra layers. Other than that, nothing too exciting.
Pam I just got home and checked in. What exciting news. Congrats :)
Woohoo, Pam! Wow! How very exciting! :leap: May you be blessed with a trouble free pg this time around. Congratulations! :hooray:
Lauren, how awful! I hope Liberty catches up with her weight quickly. Dreadful how quickly it's spreading. Poor little Liberty! :cry:
Suzie, glad that you're all better again. Was it measles? That's so wrong that you were made to wait with Bella. I thought babies under 12 months presenting with those sorts of symptoms would be seen pretty quickly... Anyway, glad all's well again. Happy packing!
Mel, yay for Ashton cutting more teeth. And for more wet nappies. I've been noticing that since I've been on holidays, Matthew's wet nappy count is back up too with all the extra breast feeding. Back to work on Monday though :(
Donna, good luck with the "not not trying" :crossfingers:
Niamh, congrats again on your weight loss, wow! Love that Eireann is a happy babbler! I'm enjoying Matthew's attempts at conversation and singing!
Tenille, thanks for saying that. I've been feeling like I'm not doing a very good job at anything lately. Would have liked to have had more of a chance to sleep while I was in Brisbane, but the willing helpers to watch Matthew didn't seem to materialise as often as was promised, lol. However, did get to eat a couple of meals in peace and was able to enjoy a shower again. And got to go to the hair salon for a couple of hours! :dance:
Lee, bon voyage for August 4. Hope you have an easy flight and enjoy your time away. Mmm Warm European summer sounds goooood. :D
Erin, would love to get to Sydney to see you and Emily IRL :D Hope Emily sleeps through for you tonight. Sleep school sounds very attractive!
Brisbane was good but even though we were there for five days, we still didn't see all my family and I wasn't able to catch up with Jo or any of my old friends. Just need longer holidays! Was nice to be somewhere 10 degrees warmer though. Been feeling terribly cold since we got back. And Matthew's got a horrible cough and cold. Back to work Monday, sigh.
Hello lovely ladies,
Pam whoo hoo I'm delighted for you and hope all goes well and you have a very happy healthy pregnancy:dance:my Af still hasn't come so makes it 3 weeks late by my old cycle but as with I'm feeling a OK no sickness I know I'm ok :D
Lauren how are you all feeling now you poor things, swine flu is not so bad here so far its spreading more and more but I am just really worried about the children. esp Eireann.
Kerry thanks I never got a chance to go to weight watchers the last two weeks but Im back this Thursday so hopefully down even more Ill get there. Hope Mathew feels better soon Eireann has a cough as well and just when I'm falling asleep she has a coughing fit and wakes up:rolleyes: I'm still waiting on my rest as my boys are on summer holidays now.
Lee have a great time in France I love Paris so beautiful, reminds me I must go again. :) some day.
Nicamber, oh not talk about every thing happening at once on you, I hope Bella is all better now, I think Eireann is going to cut another tooth on the bottom soon.
well not much going on with me we rescued a little black Kitten, Ild say she is only about 7 weeks old poor thing so we decided to keep her as DS1 is a star and feeds her and brings her for walks in the garden he is great. My poor DH was over ruled on the vote LOL. Eireann is standing up on her own and stepping around the furniture and falling lots I don't put socks on as she gets better grip and the fact she hates them and pulls them off.
hope every one elsae is doing great xxxxx
Hi Girls!!!
We have TEETH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally!!!!! The bottom left is through and bottom right and 2 front top ones are jsut about through so she has just about gotten all four at once!!! SHe has been pretty good about it though, slept through the past 2 nights! I just wish I could get to sleep before midnight. I'm starting to get anxious about going back to work. Back on Monday!!

I'm doing great - just had my big scan this morning and everything looks healthy and normal - so VERY relieved! Was trying to check out between the legs, but my Ob's not letting me cave now - oh well!!! We are off to France on Tuesday, so just wanted to drop by and say hi and bye to you all - I think I can get Net access over there, but it won't be very regular - so will try and drop by and tell how awful a time I'm having ;)
Hope everybody is doing great and HAPPY BIRTHDAYS to the earlier bubs in our group!! 1 is such an ADORABLE age!!!
Lee xo
lol Lee, have a great time...say Happy birthday to Remy from us when your away.. fantastic news on your scan, I can't wait to find out babies sex!!! Yes August 16th seems like an eternity, but things are going well, good HCG doubling, no bleeding ;)so I am very happy...
:leap::leap::leap:as she dances off to find somewhere else to tell her news!!!!
Pam that is great news!!!
Lee have an awesome trip!! That's great about the scan! Emily got her birthday gift thanks so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Will have to send yours off now when you get back. I had plans to do it earlier but ending up with 3 extra kids this week made it hard. (that's a whole other thread if you want to read about it)
Little miss isn't sleeping well again and I'm stressed! How will I cope at work? I don't want to go back I'll miss her too much too. :(
Lee wow France, I am soooo jealous! I am so over the Tassie cold :( We've been exposed to swine flu on Thursday but so glad that we are all healthy! It was very close to home. Have a great trip!! Can't wait to hear all about it.
Pam BIG congrats! How exciting!!!!! Bring on the 16th!!
Ezy hope you start getting some sleep soon. And YAY for teeth!!! :dance:
Here... well it's been a long and stressful week...
I had to take the morning after pill :redface: last week and the DUMB doctor didn't tell me there were SAFE ones to take while breastfeeding so I had to give it up for 3 days :( So from Thursday till Sunday Ash had no booby and when we started again on Sunday he hasn't been happy, seeming overly hungry and refusing to feed. He will turn his head and scream and I gave in a few times and gave him a bottle.
The good thing about it was that Ashtons dad came on Saturday morning and took him over night. I just thought since he was on the bottle it would be a good oportunity for them to have some time. It was the first time he's seen him since April. And it went great :) They enjoyed eachothers time and he was apparently an angel. And what did I do... well I went away! And I had the BEST time. I felt like a new mummy!!
We went and got a room at Bridport, walked on the beach and took photos (there are pics on my FB), had the BEST dinner in peace :lol: then went to the pub and had a few drinks, played some pool and listened to music. It was bliss. The best bit? I got to sleep in till 8 and LAY IN BED till 10!!
Who is we? Well it's Jamie. A lovely, great guy that I've been friends with for 7 years and it's gone to a whole other level ;)
Today I have gone back to no bottles and just pushing through it all... and after a morning of crying, and lunch time was horrible, he is finally drinking from me again and he seems happier!! So we might not have to give up feeding yet!!! :dance:
Ash has also started sleeping through. Well it's been 3 nights so we will see how long that lasts. The first 2 he went down at 8 and got up at 12.30 for boobie but then slept till 7.30 but last night he went down at 6pm and didn't wake till 7am! I had to go check him to make sure he was still breathing!!
That's about all here. Hope everyone is well!!
oh wow congrats!! i am so jealous of all you pregnant girls :) i'd love to be pregnant again but dh has said no more until he passes his probation at his work which isn't until january. my sil has just told me she's pregnant, my bestie is pregnant and i'm getting my period again atm. sigh never mind. at least i have one bubba!! i'm sure there's plenty of girls in the ttc thread who would love to have just the one.
sorry we've been mia, liberty has been sick 3 out of the last 4 weeks and between facebook, ebay, all the other ways i waste time and caring for a sick baby i don't have much time to spare :)
she had her first ambulance ride on monday last week. she had a bad attack of croup and was vomiting heaps and wouldn't stop vomiting making funny breathing sounds and coughing and choking and when we tried to put her in the car seat to take her to hossy she just kept on spewing up and choking on her vomit and we decided just to call an ambo. i didn't know what croup was then all i knew was that she was breathing strangely. she was given steroid medication and got over the croup really quickly but she is still on antibiotics as she's still got lots of flem.
no sleeping through here haha. faaaaar from it!!! heaps of teeth coming through atm, about 6 new ones just broken through the gum. she's not walking despite her earliness to start standing up and walking along furniture. she's a very fast crawler and oh yeah that reminds me, i turned my back for two seconds and i was only a step away from her when she fell down the stairs two weeks ago too which was another hospital visit because she landed on the back of her neck/head and fell about five steps as our stairs curve around and she fell off the end. they are carpeted luckily and even though after tears she seemed fine i wanted to get her checked out..... and she fell out of bed that same week too. we've just had a real crap time of things. i broke the golden rule of co-sleeping and let her sleep in my bed when i was over-tired and i didn't wake up when she wriggled out of my arms in her sleep and even though when she's awake she can get off the bed fine but turning around and lowering herself off because she was asleep she went head first off the bed and landed with a big thump as she was a dead weight. oh and i drove over a nail so fingers crossed my tyre doesn't deflate.
gees look at my post, you can tell it's period time!!!
missymoo sounds like you had a wonderful break , you deserve it. and fingers crossed things go well with your new friend ;)
erin - i hope things improve sleep-wise and that it's not too hard on you being back at work. i feel really sorry for you that must be so frustrating as you need your sleep now for work.
Hi girls... Well, sounds as though we all have our hands full with bub's getting into mischief. I have just ordered a playpen off the net and it should be delivered in the next day or two. Bella is just into everything and eats every little thing off the floor :sick:.
Still not really crawling, just comando. She's quick though, boy she is quick. She does rock on her knees but I think cause we have tiles she just slips, so think if we had carpet she''d be off.
Sleeping well, 6pm to 6am. We are still co and still loving it. Have cut the 3 day sleeps down to 2 now cause the extra on in the afternoon made for a much restless night.
We are off to NZ on Sunday. Trying to pack now so it's not a mad rush and I forget anything. Can't wait, in desperate need of a holiday.
Hope you are all well. xx
