adele, just saw your post. I hope Riley gets better soon, it's great that he's kept the temp down for a few hours. I hope you're not too drained and get plenty of rest tonight.
We just came back from the hospital. Nina woke up with one of those screaming fits I was telling you guys about and couldn't breath properly as her nose was blocked and she wouldn't settle and started going blue around the mouth/nose. By the time we arrived at the hospital she's cleared up and was all giggly and talking to me, the little buggar! The paeditrician checked her out and she had good oxygen and her chest was clear so we were given the all clear to come home. We've got to keep an eye on her and if it persists or gets worse than we'll go back. Fingers crossed she doesn't have a bad night tonight.

Wow Jodi - that sounds a bit scary with Nina. Cheeky little bugger she is tho.

Adele - I hope your two get better soon, you don't seem to be having much luck health-wise with them as of late.

Maz - Have you got that nappy cover yet? Postage is probably a bit slow this time of year, but I hope you get it before Xmas.

Sorry, no other personals tonight, I've had a glass of wine now my little man has gone to bed - and just too giggly to type anymore. LOL.

Wont be online much this weekend, as taking a trip whoop whoop (Bunbury) to pick up my new car, then got pre-Xmas dinner with a friend... and brekkie do Sunday morning. Arggghhhh too hectic.

Hey, I just noticed that I too am now a 'teenrager' !!

[Anna**]

OMG!!! GUESS WHO IS FOUR MONTHS OLD ALREADY?

Sh*t time is going way too fast.

[Visitor7]

YAY anna, I'm a teenrager too. I was hoping for a glass on wine tonight too, but it didn't happen. Have a good weekend.

ETA: happy 4 months Xander ... that means Nina is in 5 days!!!!!

[Rach75]

[Visitor7]

[Anna**]

but yet again jase went to bed and left me with jack, dishes bottles etc

That happens every night over here as well *sigh* I rarely get to sleep before midnight, despite Xander going down by 8.30pm.

[**Helen**]

Hi guys.

Adele-Poor thing I hope Riley gets better soon.

Jodi-I hope that Nina gets better aswell and you all sleep well tonight.

For those BF and comp feeding. Is there any sign of Af for you guys yet. I am thinking mine might not be far away and was just wondering if this is normal or am I just unlucky.

Sleep well ladies.

Love

[Visitor7]

helen, I got AF back 3 weeks after having Nina and have had it every month :frown: My first one was awful, very heavy and painful, but it seems to have gone back to normal now (sorry for TMI)

[Rach75]

well fingers crossed jack is down, washing up is done, just waiting for bottles in micro then this little duck is off to bed, and god help me if jase trys and makes a move when I go to bed LOL, I will scream

[maz]

Anna - Yeah hon, I got the cover (I thought I mentioned it way back) and your a naughty girl for putting that $10 back in there! 3 firm smacks lady and not at hungry jacks either. Thanks you for that mate.
Adele - holly cr@pola woman. Its doesnt rain for you but it pours. When is your bad luck gonna stop?! Thank god Simon is there. Big hugs mate.
Little P - I stop and chat to new mums all the time so I can so totally relate to you. I see a new born and I dive on the poor mum. They must freak our from me.
Helen - My periods still arent right and im on the pill. Ah knowing my luck I'd be up the duff again..ops cant be cause I haven't let Jed near me in the last month (bugger for him).
Forgot to mention but I got my hair cut last night into big layers and died it blonde on top and dark brown underneith (probably did mention it and no-one noticed:frown: it ok, its only me lol)
Ive gotta wrap some pressies for tomorrow for my brother whos to slack to do it.
Have a good night, I hope to hell I do, alone with the kids
xxmaz

RAch - PMSL at you hon....Ive got the bed for myself to night...I might get scared NOT!

[Nelle]

Ohh Jodi isn't that scary when they can't breathe properly.
And Adele, hope you and Riley (and Simon and Akira) get a great night's rest tonight, and stay healthy.

I'm another clucky one, got a pregnant friend who's getting her bump and ohhhh man I just have to not look at it cos it really makes me want another! :P

Ohhh man I can hear River whinging again...he's really unsettled tonight...perhaps he has wind. Later girls xo

[shellbell3]

Morn all,
Can't believe some of you are clucky already, don't think I want another for awhile, I'm still getting up twice a night at least!

Adele- How is Riley, still keeping his temp down?

Jodi- How scary for you, these babes of ours love to keep us on our toes!

Rach75- Tell that husband of yours to get off his butt! If you cook he should wash up.

Hello to everyone else, feeling bit slack at moment.

[Cougar]

helen, i havent got my periods back yet either, i stopped BF last week when i had to go to hospital, but i was bottle and breast feeding, so im not sure when the witch will rear its ugly head, but now im TTC, i hope its soon so i can work out when im ovulating, so i can try for a BOY!
