Babies Born September 2006 #109

I so dont envy you girls right now....I think the last 6 weeks pg are the worst :( be brave girls...it will be over before you know it.

I have a swearer :rolleyes: im not surprised....anyone who knows me knows what my mouth is like but ive been trying to be good around the kids lately ;)...anyway Vy was dressed up in ehr tutu shopping yesterday adn this lady kept going on and on how cute she was. Vy was trying to hide (as she is quiet antisocial) and the lady kept chasing her...int he end Vy turns to her and sayd in a nice loud voice

FARK OFF! :o

What gets me is that she used it in the right context......still very embarrassing lol

hey its your DD today Shell wtg - not long now, hang in there. What hospy are you going to?

Maz- Lol, funny for me to read but i reakon I would've died if Ash did that! Or I would've made out Df was the culprit. Lol.

Laurin- Going to Sandy hosp. Hopefully very soon!

Ha Ha Maz - silly lady shouldn't have been annoying her!

Meg - just checked out the pics on FB - gorgeous !!!

Shell - maybe tonight's the night!

Well, we have two grumpy children with colds here, FUN.

Okay, better get back to it, and try and get Finny down for the night and me into bed at a reasonable hour.

L x

Your bubs is gorgeous meg!!! Well done.
Goodluck shell, fingers crossed you go soon!
maz, my goodness! I wouldnt have known whether to laugh or scold but if you make a big deal of it they just tend to say it more.lol
A day at home today. Im hoping the kids are going to behave.Lately they have not and millana just doesnt take "no" for an answer.
I have my markets on in a week and should be getting organised but seem to get disracted one way or the other..
Mum and dad are on a cliff on the eyre penisula. Scrub oneside and a huge drop to water on the other. Lets hope there is no fire and they dont get trapped. 44degrees there today. yuk.

I don't think I have Meg on facebook and would love to see photos! Can someone please help?

LOL Maz - I can just see Tiana doing that, although I am really trying to be careful with what I say around her!

PMSL maz, well you know that my mouth is very much like yours, caity must be Vys twin, as last week, i picked jessica up from school she had a job interveiw, at mcdonalds, anyway i take her there, my parents are looking after the kids, i get home, walk in the door, and mum starts screaming out fo me to help her.i go up to the hall where she is and theres jessica, she had raced inside trying to make it to the loo, and she had spewed up all over mum, liam, and caitlyn was sitting on the loo...and caity screamed out FARK JESSICA...as she was pretty ****ed that she made a mess everywhere..it was so funny, but all mum kept saying was where would she learn that word from..dumb *****..anyway jess got the job

Well I think things are actually happening but with all these false starts don't want to get hopes to high but thinking its for real.
Been awake since 1am, contractions coming 4-5mins apart. Getting more intense.
My mum will look after Ash while we're at the hospital and she is about 30min drive from me so just trying to figure out when to call her, want her to sleep as long as possible, but don't want it to suddenly go really fast!

Few potty mouth kids in here lol, Ash has repeated some naughty words but I just quickly change topic so she doesn't realise they're naughty. Its so hard tho sometimes not to swear around them, esp in the car I am a road rage mouth.

Good luck Shell!!!

Goodluck Shell, cant wait to hear the news. my guess is boy

Goodluck shell!! Cant wait to hear the news!!
Well, ruby called me a "poo bum" at the dinner table last night. Very charming. I didnt even do nothing:)
Not much happening here. Maz saved me from a stress meltdown yesterday so thanx:lol:
Kids were driving me insane and also trying to make a newsletter for playgroup was doing my head in. Sometimes i wonder why i volounteer for these things.
Anyways playgroup today and hopefully when i am back on shells has popped!

:ROFL: Chrissy - ahhh that is a ****er!!! Im laughing my head off!!! ahahah defently something Vy would do!!!

Shell - you go girl...gonna start stalking in the birth announcments!!

Caddie - ah chicky.....it was good to talk to you...im at my wits end with my kids today. Mateauz is sick and wont stop crying...arhhhhhhhh

BBL when I have stopped headbutting the wall

Don't get too excited girls, after bloody 7 hours of contractions, getting more intense and like 4 mins apart everything stopped. Its so driving me nuts and puts me to tears. I can't keep getting no sleep all the time cause of this!

Hey - we are home. Tired but doing OK. Emilia was up on the hour evry hour last night!
J loves her so far. I hope it keeps going that way. He is being very attention seeking and loud today. DH has just taken him down to buy some groceries. My boobs are ROCK HARD and very sore at the moment.
I will come back an post another time about the birth.
Take care all,

Shell - hugs to you hun, can you have a nice bath to try and relax, sending you lots of labour vibes, hope it is not too far away, it is such a bummer when you think something is happens and then boom it stops.

Meg - right at the beginning we had issues with Rylee in regards to not getting enough attention, but it is nearly three months and she is starting to get better. The only thing I can suggest is like what your DH is doing and take him out to do special 'big boy' things and you do special things with him when bubs is asleep. Finn woke up on the hour every hour for about 2 weeks I think, it gets better....bet its lovely to be home....

All well here, I took Finn to a chiropractor this morning to sort out his 'issues' so will see if we see any improvement, it is a work in progress and I will try anything at the moment.

Have a nice day, crossing my fingers we don't have a repeat of Black Saturday here in Victoria today...

What issues does Finn have?

What issues does Finn have?

Great to see you back Meg! I saw the FB pics too, Emilia is gorgeous. Hopefully those rock hard boobs will get Emilia cosy enough to sleep stretches before too long.

Aww Shell. :hug: You sound so frustrated. Will pray it happens soon.

No potty mouth here, because no words at all really! Just the occasional one to describe what he's doing, like clap or ssss for snake or coptah for when his helicopter. I think it just hasn't clicked that he can move his mouth to make different sounds and then add them together! :p

Meg - just the last three weeks, he has been screaming alot, arching his back, seems very uncomfortable and having 10 minute cat naps in the day, just extremely unhappy. Needs to be carried all the time just a very unhappy baby, so I took him to a baby chiro this morning - she said he has alot of tension in his neck, lower spine and head so did some gentle manipulation, apparantely this can happen alot with quick births.. anyway, along with this I just had an Amby Hammock delivered this morning that I hired and also a friend has lent me an automatic rocker that plays music to see if that will soothe him a bit too. I know alot of people think I am crazy taking a baby to a chiro but I will try anything and he does seem like he is in pain so we will see how we go, we have another appointment for Monday. Another thing I was going to say I did with Rylee was do a reward chart as her behaviour did deteriorate quite a bit with Finny arriving, so I just did really basic tasks for her - eat dinner, clean teeth, be good when I am breastfeeding, go to bed happy - and she got a sticker when she did them and was happy that she was getting that attention, I ordered it online from a company called pottytraining dot com dot au -

Anyway, sorry everyone i have blabbed on enough and bored you all. Sorry this post is all about me.

Hope everyone is well.

Shell - that sucks butt. Hoping bub gets the hint and evacuates today/tonight!
Meg - welcome home! Emilia is just gorgeous! Cant wait to hear all about your birth.
Hi Laurin!

Oh man. I just lost some plug and Ive been going #2's all bloody day, not badly but frequently. Also got some ouchy cramps and a backache. I will be majorly po'ed if this little booger comes before March 22nd. I do NOT want to miss out on my waterbirth when this is last bub for us. Otherwise I might have to have another one :rofl: So he is on warning to stay where he is. I can do pre-labour or even early labour for the next 3wks but I am not having him now. Even Dh said 'Man you know he's gonna come before 38wks and you wont get the birth centre birth.....' lucky he was in the shower at the time or I would have belted him.

Stay put AnnaT's bubba!! on the other hand, you can arrive now Shell's baby!!

Laurin - You are not mad to take him to a chiro. My sis is an osteopath and treats babies all the time. In fact I will prob get her to give Emilia the once over. J had a very stiff neck as a newborn, and she fixed him right up.

Nelle - Words will come soon enough, then you will wish he never learnt to talk. Ok - better take my sore boobies off to feed

Whats this random act of kindeness thing you got meg? Is this something new on BB i havnt heard of?
Annat hope today the contractions have eased!

I dunno. I just noticed it. Not sure what it means.
Well this baby will only sleep if I am holding her. Night and day. Any advice girls? As J never did that.

What about a sling meg? would that help? I had a friend who's child was similar and she ended up getting a bassinet thingy that swings? cant remember but it looks like a stork to me.lol
Plus, she is only a newbe so she is probably wanting comfort in this strange world..hard i know with another young child to contend with.

Yeah - well she isn't even a week old yet, so need to give her a chance to get used to the world.

:D

Yay to you Shell, huge congratulations to you on the birth of baby Emily, so happy for you :)

Thanks AJP for letting us know.

Meg - a sling is a great idea. The only way I can get Finn to sleep in the day is that a friend has lent me an automatic rocker, I can get a decent sleep out of him other than that it is 30 mins in the cot....but yeah, she is so new at this stage and the world is one big strange place to her, it is exhausting though especially with a toddler.

Yay Shell!!!

Welcome to the world Emily!!

:rofl: How did you guys miss the RAK stuff? Before Feb 17 you could get 2 for 1, so upgrade for yourself and also include a friend, or upgrade 2 people! They were revealed around Feb 17 (some a little later once payment went through). You musta been RAK'd Meg, lucky one! :D

Thanks for letting us know Jolsy baby.

Kid free tonight - at the inlaws - wooooooooooooot! Am being noisy. :p

Oh thats right! I remember that nelle but im already upgraded so didnt really get it?
Congrats shell on emily!!! im off to read the announcement!!

Congratulations Shell!!! Enjoy little Emily.

Nelle - So someone RAK'd me. How do I find out who, as I want to say thanks! Does that mean I can organise a new AV again, as I don't have one.

CONGRATS shell - I LOVE the name Emily. Emilia is the Italian version of Emily.

Hi all,
Had E in our bed again last noight. I am all for the watever works motto. She slept basically from 9pm to about 2:30am and then asleep again till about 6:30am. She slept in the middle, and gee it made a difference. If she doesn't want to sleep in the cradle again tonight, she will be back with us. I feel so much better and it is really the first night of decent sleep I have had in a week. She is also a good feeder and will feed well with me lying down, so all I need to do is pop a boob out. She has had 2 good sleeps today in the rocker, and 1 in the sling. I took J to the festival in town. He ahd a ball on the jumping castle, pony ride, train ride etc. It was so lovely for me to spend some time with him, and E was in the sling, so could keep me hands free for J.

Ahhh I'll take that one to my grave Miss Meggie :p The idea was that the RAK'er stays anon, while you bask in your specialness, so keep your special nose out of it! :D
And yep, just shoot an email to *I think it's* avatars@bellybelly.com.au. Might wanna double check the email address, it's in the plat section somewhere.

Went and looked at house colours today...who would have known the headaches deciding between an olivey grey and a bluey grey could cause! :p

Happy birthday
:birthday2:Belle honey :birthday2:

21 again right ;)

mauws babe hope your having a truely wonderful day!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BELLE - have a good one

Happy Birthday Belle


ahh as for me i have broken my toe and am on crutches for two weeks. it hurts so much. and the crutches hurt too :( feel like such a tool cause im complelty unco on them...



Nelle- did you realise its almost out bubbs 1st birthday!!! omg so soon.

Mj is standing on her own now, so walking wont be far off

Happy Birthday Belle!!!
Hope you got spoilt rotten!

Ness- How'd you break yr toe!? I hope not alcohol related, guess its lucky yr at your parents must be tricky chasing 3 kids on crutches. Can't believe MJ and Silas are nearly 1.

Nelle- So your finances worked out then? When you planning on buying/ building?

We are home now from hospy, would've liked to have stayed another night but they only keep you 2 nights post delivery. She was quite unsettled last night but nice staff took her so I could sleep, said its normal 2nd night til the milk comes in which it is starting to do. Feeling very baby blue, I remember this from last time, I cried for like a week, get so anxious about every little thing. Drives me nuts.

You poor thing Ness!
How will you go carrying MJ??

Welcome back Shell!!


umm i broke my toe by stubbing it into the skirting boards pretty hard.. its a nice clean break apparently so will heal well.

umm well atm i cant carry MJ, i feel like crap because of it... My ex has taken the kids for me tonight and is dropping them all off at care tomorrow (I got teleah a emergency day and i cant take her to kindy atm) and i hope by wed i might be well a bit more mobile

hi girls wrote a big post and my computer blue screened me augh... will start again !

Thanks Maz, Meg, Caddie, Jodi, Shell and Ness for the birthday wishes here and on FB, you are all really sweet, we had a good day and julia cooked a yummy cake with daddy.

Shell - Congrats on your beautiful little girl Emily! good to see you back hope all is well.

Meg - great to see you back too, congrats on your little girl Emilia hows it all going?

Ness - hope you feel better soon hon it must be tough for you, sending u hugs

Havent been much on BB since mum was in hospital at beginning of Feb have been spending more time with her at her place and the kids and also I have a confession, I found Bingo Island on FB and have become addicted to playing bingo its a great stress relief. LOL.

I hope you are all well and hugs to everyone.
