Hi girls
Shell thanks for the PM would love to do the KK.
Nelle - good to see ya, hows things? your right I do need some of my own time, got some right now for 40mins YAY Tara sleeping and inlaws and Jeffrey have taken Julia to the park, they are going back to Melb tomorrow!!!!
Meg - honey thanks for your advice, I called my LC from last time and she has given me wonderful tips until Wednesday then we can get the attachment sorted! Heres hoping all goes well. Re your anxiety honey, I had the same issues, I saw my psyhcologist on a fortnightly basis up until Tara's birth and she called me 2 days after to see how I was. When I had the meltdown in hospital she told me that none of this was my fault it was all their expectations. We worked on me having no expectations so I wouldnt get into bad anxiety. I also increased my meds 4 weeks before the birth as thats when my anxiety started coming about the birth. That helped and also doing relaxing things helped too. Can you see someone on regular basis to have steps in place for the birth? My psych told me take one step at a time only and it worked wonders on my way to the hospital, having the drugs and then being operated on and then in recovery. How is J recovering honey?
Shell - congrats on your pregnancy!!! great to see you, how you feeling? thanks for the hugs.
Caddie - honey how you doing?
Helen - Your pregnancy seems to be going so fast! probably not for you though, how is everything?
AnnaT - congrats on being 5 weeks/ nearly 6 weeks, praying for you for sticky vibes hon.
Chrissy - hi mate, so happy you liked the photos!! great to hear from you hows your tribe going?
Jodi - thanks for your support mate, I really appreciate all your help and advice. Will call you tomorrow, MWAH
MAZ - sweetie hope you feel better soon mate... sending you big cyber hugs. Breathe Breathe honey.

-
hi girls ,
popping in.... glad to see everyone...
Belle- congrats agin on your beautifl girl, and OMG at the IL's gosh you poor thing
Shell- your a champ for doing the KK
Meg- how is j now from his op??
maz get well soon
Jodi very cute on the talking, must say im kinda relieved annika doesnt say much at all.. which is nice cause Teleah doesnt shut up. She did this morning run up to me and point to my nose and say "nose" very proudly
having a bit of a *****ful tima atm, seems like people like to kick people while they are down and i just feel like im constaantly dogged behind my back. Its like high school all over again.
as for Annika well she must be a mini she is still in size 1 lol
so likes - Dolls, drawing, LOVES animals, size 2 summer clothes
dislikes doesnt watch TV, no teddies
well im off to craawl back into my hole
-
Hope you feel better soon (by the way, Cat's bub is spelled Ceri). Still wish I'd gotten to see you when you were close! Ah well next time.
Wow at Nina's sentence Jodi! (And haha at Annika pointing out your nose Ness) Riv doesn't talk still, but he knows what's what, and he's starting to have different sounds for things. I just think talking's not a priority for him. (He's probably too busy figuring out how to climb things and escape from places. And he's figured out how to use the microwave too :rolleyes:)
As for the KK:
Needs/Likes:
- size 2 pants, size 1 or 2 tops.
- Anything to do with music
- Doesn't have many bath toys
Don't needs/likes:
- more teddyists (like racists or sexists) here. Don't love branding plastered all over things either.
- things without batteries are easier, but it doesn't really matter
I'll come back and add more later, dh seems to be more interested in video games than parenting (can anyone tell I'm annoyed? :P).
-
Ooh, I double posted and didn't realise! Nothing to see here folks...
-
Well ruby is a mini too because she is still ina 1! But still a few months from summer time.
Millana has just fitted into 3's but some pants still big in the waist.
Ok likes for miss ruby! Loves the fairies,dora,books,clothes,high heels,being a princess,playdough.Shoe size 6 target for summer. shirts buy a 2 but pants a 1!
Dislikes: dvd's (i have so many id probably double up),soft toys(make my own),glue,glitter,paint.
But all my kks in the past have been great so i am not fussed everone,as long as its not paints,millana would have a freakin great time!!!
-
Hope everybody had a great weekend!
Belle - I hope that you get the attachment sorted out really quickly, and you can enjoy the time spent feeding your little girl.
Jodi - I have a talker like you - Tiana tells me all sorts of things now. (some not so good) The other day it was 'not cold mummy, no jumper' I was really stunned at that one!
Nelle - Once you find a way to make husbands parent more let me know. DH is on holidays and I hate it. I just have double the people to clean up after now.... :(
Bea - Hope that things improve really soon for you.

-Hi Five
-Size 2 clothing
- Books
Dislikes:
- As with everyone else - please no more teddies/ stuffed toys she has soo many.
With us - went back to the DRs again tonight and Tiana can finally come off the antibiotics. Her throat is still red but they think it is just a virus now and not anything sinister anymore. Now we jsut have to get through her ultrasound tomorrow and hopefully there will be no more drs for a bit! We are at the stage where if she can recognise the person as a dr or nurse she just automatically starts crying.

-
Hi Ladies
Sorry I have been AWOL for awhile
Huge congrats to Belle & Kell on the birth of their beautiful little girls - lovely news!!! Belle - sorry to hear about the issues with your family, big PITA for you, hope you are getting some respite from them and things are going alot better.
For the KK:
Rylee is size 2 and likes anything......
I had my parents over from NZ for 2.5 weeks, they were such a huge help to me and Rylee was sick while they were here so they took over all the cooking and cleaning which was great as she just wanted to sit on my knee the whole time. Now DH is home, if only he would take over the cooking :(
Anyway, better get back to it all.

-

Caddie - thanks for the chat yesterday...you always seem to put a smile on my dial afterwards.
IM all excited about this KK now....I love the person I got :) and IM gonna have so much FUN!!!! can we make something for it????
-
Hi all,
Belle - I am pleased that things have improved from Tara.
Hi To everyone else.
In regard to J, he likes/needs the following.
Elmo is still his fave
Likes to colour in
He is in size 3 tops, and size 2 pants.
Loves books and reading.
I am sick again. I swear I have never been sick so many times since I had J. I seem to catch everything. J has a cold at the moment and he has given it to me. I have taken a few days off work as I just don't have the energy to go. I am just a sook!!
-
Maz- i made my gift last year for a certin little boy.... (Meg- you never did take that pic :lol:)
Im racking my brain to find the best gift for my KK.....
-
thanks Ness...I want to make something a little special on top of what i bought today :) and matie - have fun tonight on your outting
meg OH no....stupid colds and being sick!! im so over it aswell. I can barely talk and ive gotten this dame stupid cough to go with it
hey Chrissy - Ive got 2 pat-a-cake nappys up in the classifieds if your interested babe.
-
Ness - I totally forgot! It is definitely hanging on the wall in his room. I just don't know how to put pics in the BB gallery.
But yes - it was a very lovely, thoughtful gift. I really appreciated the effort that you put in to such a personalised present.
-
:hugs: Meg, hope you're feeling better soon
Belle - Yay for little Miss Tara feeding well - I hope you both share a wonderful breastfeeding journey :kiss:
Shell - Do you want us to let you know when we post the pressies?
-
Mum3girls- Nah, I trust you all. Maybe if ppl can say they got their pressies so the sender knows it got to the ok?
Meg- I don't blame you, I struggle thru each day as it is a cold would make it twice as hard.
Belle- :clap: Thats great news, glad things are going well. As time goes on hopefully it will get easier and easier.
MrsT- Is he still getting pain in his ears?
Had my Ob appt yesterday, had it booked for 10am and didn't get in til nearly 11am! Don't understand how at that time of the day they can be so behind, then she sent me for blood test so everyone that had been waiting to see Obs were also at pathology. Everyone else seemed to have someone with them and I was all on my lonesome trying to keep Ash entertained the whole time.
Anyway have my u/s booked for next Wed, because I decided not to do that downs test she wasn't even gonna send me for u/s! As if I can wait til 19 week one, wanna make sure there is something there and its all looking good.
-
Sorry Shell will clear my pm box for you now.
For the KK, at the moment he is way into cars, playdough, animals, books. He wears size 2 clothes and size 6 shoes. He doesnt need any more stuffed toys. We are happy with anything from our KK.
Im at the library. Our net should be hooked up BUT there is a fault in our phone line that wont be fixed til tomorrow so I cant use it. I have my ultrasound in a hour and I am nervous as all heck. Apart from feeling tired and hormonal/sooky I have had no morning sickness at all which isnt usual for me and Im getting worried it might not be a go-er. Guess I'll know either way in an hour.
Loving our new house, its so big and fancy. Im sure my boys will destroy it in no time though. Just a few more boxes of clothes to unpack and then we are done. I told Ry I am not moving again so he'd better like it up here :lol:
Hope everyone is doing well and all our new bubs are blissfully sleeping :)
Jodes - could you pm me your address so I can send a birthday invite! Ta.
-
Hope the scan went well today AnnaT. Thinking of you.
Hope Tara and Keira are being good babies.
We are happy with anything here for Eithan. Just no more soft toys. Size 2 clothes. Happy with anything home-made. Can't wait to go shopping for my KK.
Pretty exhausted here.
-
Goodluck annat!!! hoping it went well?
-
I did a trial of Nina's b'day cake yesterday. Turned out alright, but I'm not completely happy with it. I'm having trouble getting the icing looking smooth, anyone got tips on how to do that?
I also cooked a delicious roast last night. Heath was very impressed, roast AND dessert, and all home made :D Now he expects to get this everynight :cryinglaugh:
I lurve this time of day. The Night Garden is on, so Nina is busy watching that, and Emily has gone back to bed. I've got a Bowen Therapy session this afternoon. I've been getting niggling little headaches this week which are annoying.
caddie - thanks for the chat this morning. I really appreciated it.
annat - how did you go yesterday?
How are all the new babies going? Is everyone settling in alright?
-
Just a quick hi to everyone.
Also checking on all the mums with newbie bubs and all the preggo girls, hope everyone is okay in here. :)
All fine here, Woo Hoo to you Jodi on your roast and desert, I bet Heath was impressed.
Shell - the 12 week u/s is so exciting to see your bub for the first time, you can't miss out on that one.
Okay, Rylee is at child care today so DH and I are going out to lunch at one of the wineries down in Red Hill, I can't wait to have a child free meal.
Better get going, am back at uni this semester, last paper so have some of that to do.
Laurin xxx
-
Laurin- I know thats exact what I thought. I remember with Ash the 12 week one was our favorite, just seeing for the first time and knowing there is something there with a heartbeat.
Jodi- I'd have to be last person to ask cake advice! (if you saw my last year attempt you'd understand, lol). I was thinking of cheating an getting ice cream cake with Dora on it.
AnnaT- How did the scan go? I hope everything is ok.
Helen- I'm not surprised you are exhausted! I feel worn out just carrying one (well I think there is one!) So I can only imagine how you're feeling!
Nearly could have been 4 car pile up today! Old people should get licence review. This old duck went thru red light, and car in front of me had to slam on brakes to miss her, I had to slam on brakes and so did car behind me! Thankfully we had only just got a green light so we weren't travelling that fast if we were prolly no one would've been able to stop in time. Tell you it gave me such fright I actually had chest pain!
-
That does sound nasty shell!! So scary having a near miss esp when pregnant too!!!
Just been to the specialist and i just had some bloodworks done and i need a ct scan to check my lymphnodes.
Mum and dad could be home earlier!! at the end of this month!! Yay. Super excited..
-
I've had a very exciting day. Nina has received 3 parcels today for her birthday coming up :cheer: (one of which is from Ambah). I think I'm more excited than her, lol!
-
Bl00dy hell Shell I hope your alright hun...stupid old woman drivers...hope im not going to be one :ROFL:
Caddie - catscan...you poor chicken...YUCKO hope that it brings good news
jodi - **** 3 parcels..im jealous
Laurin - hope your enjoying your lunch with DH..I love the wineries in Redhill
AnnaT - no fair woman...come and share your news!!!!!
Hello everyone hope friday is fairing you all well.
Ive got a major sewing bug atm so im off
-
ooops, hit the reply button before finishing!
shell - thank goodness it didn't end up any worse.
caddie - when will you be having your scan? And when will your results be in?
laurin - very jealous, I would love to go to a winery for lunch! Hope you had fun
-
Must be day of old ppl drivers! Got stuck behind one going 30km (in 60 zone) then got another one in a station wagon of all things nearly back out of his driveway into me! Am I a trouble magnet? Had to swerve to miss!
Caddie- When do you have to have the scan? What in particular is he concerned about?
Jodi- Wow lucky Nina! Hope they're hidden away til her actual birthday!
Maz- Lol, I can see you as an old woman driver!
So whos gonna watch opening ceremony tonight? Starting bit late for me (10pm) prolly only watch short while before I fall asleep!
-
Just quick from me. I have had a small bleed, so a little worried. it seems to be old blood atm. I have been lying on the couch all afternoon.
-
meg, thinking of you honey, hopefully it's nothing. Stay rested & keep us updated. :hug:
