Bugger it shell - just stay home mate.
Chrissy - PMSL....hope it works again.
:oops: :oops::
I didn't realise we couldn't say which was ours I also am presuming you meant me not Jodi
also mum got ya some scrap stuff so will pick it up friday and send it saturday sorry for delay, but with going away etc, thanks for bottles etc, I feel so slack I didn't get you stuff away straight away sorry............:(
Sorry rach!! I forgot about the scrap stuff!! Look forwrd to it.Your gonna have to win with that pic anyway.Its way cute.
It is cute Rach, but did I recognise Millana Caddie? It looked like her...cos she's cute too!
Lol, sooo I shouldn't rely too much on the withdrawal method hey Chrissy? :D Well thanks Helen, it's a better suggestion than me just saying 'well...I haven't got my period yet so we might be okay'. Haha $10 says I'm the first to fall pregnant! (It's $10 I wouldn't mind losing :P)
Lol, I'm probably already preggers, I fell so easily with Riv. Is there any way if I can tell whether I'm ovulating or not, while I'm breastfeeding? I wonder.
no probs Caddie :)
so I know its been asked but who is TTC OTL or finished or waiting, after our effort at xmas I would have to say we are OTL/TTC, OTL as in not worrying about charts, pills etc :) mind you a little more of a gap than 11 mths would be nice, presuming I have c-sect at 37weeks again
Rach75- No TTC here. We still haven't even done the deed! I think now Nelle has broken her drought I'm the only one left. We just have no sex drive in our place.
Nelle- I'm not sure how to check for ovulation when BFing, maybe try those ovulator predictor sticks that you wee on and if its negative then it could be okay? Not sure.
I got round to going to mother's group its nice to get me out of the house. we've been having it at each others place each week.
My sleeping beauty has awoken and is crying, chat to you all later.
;) That is millana
Hi girls,
Thanks for the warm welcome back :grouphug: I will endeavour to keep up with you all! Julia is doing so well, shes feeding every 2 hours at the moment must be going through a growth spurt and is so talkative... im exausted at keeping her occupied!
Nelle - hello mate, I seem to have my cycles back.. I am ovulating at the moment and have the egg white cervical mucas (EWCM) do you have any of that? I had AF about 2 weeks ago I think I didnt get much bleeding though. How is River?
Shellbell - how was mothers group? How is gorgeous Ainsleigh? We have ours here once a week they are lovely girls, its so funny they have decided that the pub is the best place to meet LOL...there is about 16 of us that meet up every week.
Rach - good to see you are back, good luck TTC again I hope it doesnt take too long for you.
Caddie - hi mate how ru and Ruby and Milana going?
Maz - did you get my message? I hope you feel better soon and Vy is doing well too and the boys. Happy 4 months VY!!!!!
Helen - Hello. How is Bella & Eithan? How was your XMas? Will give you a call this week to see how you are going.
Chrissy - hi there, good to see you. How are you? Are you official TTC again?
Little P - best wishes with the move! hope it all goes well.
Rikki - thats great they found your bracelet! I would have been so upset too if it wasnt found. I bet you are happy now!
Jodi - how ru and Nina going? Lets catchup soon on MSN, hope you are well.
Sharleen - Goodluck with the househunting... Thats so cool Ambah loves rolling, I wish Julia would learn how to.
Mel - hello, thats so cool about Kiara rolling!!!
Adele - good to catchup with you today, thats great news Riley has gotten the all clear.
Anna - are you around?
Well that was a mammoth post. sorry if I have missed anyone will try and do more personals later.
Ahh Belle. I've missed those incredible personals posts! :P
And ohhh poop. I've got EWCM at the moment :rolleyes: Well, could be nothing hey...time will tell...surely my b/fing will delay ovulation...lol! Can you tell I'm slightly pooping myself? :lol: Hee hee...reminds me of that quote I just heard on the Simpsons:
Lisa: At least I was planned!
Marge: Stop it, none of you were planned!
Hey Rach, what does OTL stand for?
I just made chocolate choc chip muffins! Might get Rans to bring me one with a glass of milk while I feed Riv, which I should do now and then put him to bed hurrah!
Take care girls! xo
Does anyone know if you can ovulate while BF and not get your period but still not be preggers?
Hiya Belle, nice to see you on here.
Love
Hi Girls
You sure have been busy, I have been reading through all the posts.
Happy 4 month birthday to Vy - unbelievable!!!!!
So glad you found your bracelet Rikki!
I am definitely not trying TTC - although DH was just saying the other day about having another one - give me a break - I can't keep up with Rylee let alone be pregnant as well!!!
Sounds like all the bubs have been replaced with ones that are going through a major growth spurt, same here too, Rylee seems like a different bub. I took her to the doctor today as she is still doing major spit ups after feeding and need to give her gaviscon before a feed, she also had some flem on her chest so needs cough medicine, poor little thing.
WE went away for a few days down south - went okay, Rylee seemed to enjoy it though it was pretty hot.
Not much else to report.
Laurin :)
I think ruby is having a growth spurt,teething or being a rat! I was up 3 times last nite and each time took over an hr to settle.Grrrr.Not use to it and now im a grumpy ****.
She has just been squeeling like a pig and unsettled the last few days.Im taking her to a dr tommorow about her head,diarrhoea and needles.Should be great fun.BBL squeeling again.
someone pass the match sticks please so I can keep my eyes open. Vy was up heaps to las tnight Caddie, i swear Ive got a comb over now from pulling my hair out.
Belle - I'll give you a call this afternoon. My voice is almost back to normal yet I still seem to sound like one of those 1900 ladies......Jeds in heaven Yes!
BBL for more personals need to eat and go out before it gets to hot here.
good morning girls,
had an alright night had one of simons mates over forthe afternoon and he didnt leave till 10pm lastnight so i was up till midnight doing bottles and washing and just tiding up.
riley has finally slept a whole 7hrs yaya:).
sorry to hear that all the babies were up and down alot last night. hope ypou can all get some rest at some point today.
caddie- hope ruby getting better soon. good luck at the dr's.
laurin - hope rylee gets better soon.
well im off for a while gotta get some more washing done :(
later
adele
Ash too was unsettled, she woke 3 time overnight which isn't unusual for her but one of the times I picked her up to give her the boob, she had 3 sucks then just started crying, I have no idea what was wrong, it was that full on crying only went for 10mins but felt alot longer then she calmed down and had a good feed!
Plus we seem to have ****roaches, had 3 the last few days, 2 are dead but one got away in Ashleigh's room, hmmm, maybe she had nightmares about it thats why she was so distraught!
Ewwwwwwww at the ****roaches Shell. The warmer weather seems to bring them out.
Sorry I haven't been online much girls, I have been reading your posts but by the time I've finished reading I never have time to do proper personals (and I feel bad if I just post about Xander and I).
I do still loves ya all, but the little man is taking up so much time at the moment so I probably wont be on much for a while yet.
Hopefully I can get back here soon!
ok I am going to do personals now dont all faint :lol:
Shell, glad you got out to mums group I dread going at times but then I enjoy myself, sorry Ash is unsettled, and ditto to Anna about ****ie we have had a few too, I think a lot has to do with our renos being done therefore timber layoing around etc but they are dead when I see them inside so pest stuff must still be active
Nelle, OTL is open to life, basically come what may if it happens it happens etc
Laurin, poor Rylee hope (bad me but) she?? is better soon
Sharleen :wavey:
Maz, I will make Jack pass some of his sleepiness onto Vy I need him to wake up so I can't go out
Adele, great chatting with you the last few days, and again yay for 7hrs
Anna**, me too which is why I rarely post but not today I am doing personals WOOOO!!!!
ok now I have said HI to ya all, oh HI to those I didn't reply too
I can talk about Jack, oh my he has been so good, I have to say it, while at agnes we were getting on average a 11 hr sleep out of him he would eb up for a hour or 2 and go down for a 2 hour nap then have 2-3 45min catnaps during the day, he wasn't waking till 8am which meant we could shower and have breakie together was so nice
he is still sleeping good now we are home, except he has woken aroudn 7am, but no dramas as he is back down withint he hour yesterday he slept till 11.30am *eek* and today he has been down nearly 3 hours but I need him to wake as I have to go out
what else we are off to mums this weekend YAY!!!!!!! she gets to see jack again she has seen him 3 times since he was born *sad*
the next weekend of to gympie to see jases gran her first time seeing him
then the weekend after on call we get to stay home YAY
then aussie day weekend off to agnes
ok gotta fly the boy is awake
CYL
Ahh Open To Life hey? Well that's how Riv happened :P
Girls who's babies aren't sleeping very much - I hope they're good for you today!
That's wierd about Ash Shell, could she have had wind? That seems to be the only thing that distracts River from his beloved boob.
That's interesting Sharle, I hope I'm one of the late ovulaters! My mum reckons she didn't get her period the whole time she breastfed so hopefully I'm the same!
That's great that Jack sleeps for so long Rach! River's averaging about 11hrs too, which is such a blessing cos I always feel so tired these days! I think my crap eating is starting to catch up with me. And perhaps Christmas and all that rush has taken its toll a bit too.
Lol, have been feeling nauseous sometimes too, but I remember that the nausea started BEFORE we broke our drought, so it must be something else :P
Hey, what do you do for a gunky eye? Just keep it clean? I need some tricks of the trade to get rid of River's!
Hey Laurin, how's Namibia? Is it pretty? What's it like over there?
Well better go, the Rivmeister's on my lap now, he woke up so I might play with him for a bit! xo
I heard boobie milk is great for a gunky eye Nelle.
I sent off the cd's yesterday so hopefully you guys will all get them in the next few days. Shell I hope you get yours today.
Anna - you know were always here no matter what. I just hope you ok and that Xander isn't draining you to much
Rach - what a post OMG I take my hat off to you, I always seem to forget people and feel like cr@p afterwards.
adele - your so organised. F'curry man!
Ive changed NIkolaus' room around (almost finished really) cause everytime he went on his top bunk, the ceiling fan would hit him in the head. What a job! I was sweeting that much afterwards that my top was wet. Must be this dam cold I still have.
Ok going to finish his room now while I can and then have a breather.
xxmaz
Nelle - Boobie milk and saline are great for gunky eye...
ditto for Booby milk for gunky eye.. i was all set to take Alexander to the Dr's for the sticky eye and started a squirt of milk each feed and in 2 days the eye had cleared up.. No antibiotics or nasty eye drops~!
Alexander has turned from being a 2-3 hour day sleeper into a turd.. he only cat naps for 40 mins!!!!! HORRID!!!
BBL
Nelle, glad river is sleeping well too, the only thing with jack sleeping that long means I do as well, and then I am tired all day I think I am getting to much :lol: I just wipe jack eye with a damp cotton ball when it gets gunky
Maz congrats on changing Nick room around no way would I have the neergy mind you I want to change Jacks room around and put hi cot where the bassinet is dont know yet and as for post they are few and far between when I do big ones, and here I am 2 in one day
LP maybe we swapped babies :lol: Jack is already back down well he fell asleep ont he floor after being awake for all of 1 hr 20min :lol:
where was I when I had too go, that right, well jack woke, gave hime quick bath because OMG he stank, how can a baby who does nothing but sleep eat and play a little smell so bad :lol:
then we ducked to tyre centre to get our tyres checked well turns out only 1 tyre is legal *eek* but we are up for between $150-$175 a tyre and we need 4 *sheesh*
well seeing as Jack has crashed again I might have a cat nap too, I am not doi ng anything today I decided it was veg out day
man I was going to say something andnow I have forgotten what it was...............
just about to hit submit and I remembered is it bad for babies to never lay on their back, Jack has pretty much from week 2 slept on his belly he hates laying on back on floor, he will stay there for maybe 5min if we are lucky before cracking it, he will lie if propped up my a boppi pillow for 10min but that really isn't on his back, he prefers to lay on tummy, and he doesn't seem interested in playing with anything, he will bat at toys on his prams and swings but thats it he never grabs a rattle or anything I dont know any clues
guess who's a clever little girl and hold's her own bottle now? She was cracking it with me cause i was holding it, then i let go and she gave me a cheesy grin and kept going. are babies are growing up so fast...they turn 1 this year....
Maz- Just braved the heat and went to check my mail box and Yay! The CD was in there. Thanks heaps, I've set it up ready next to the cot for tonight. Hopefully after a few days it will be a nice sleep cue for her.
Its nearly 3 o'clock and all Ash has had since getting up at 8am is a 40min nap and 20min nap. I know she could do with more but she just will not resettle. At least she is all whingy (touch wood). I wouldn't mind it so much if she slept longer at night but these short naps makes it impossible to just go lie down after getting up often at night.
I am sooo hot, too many warm days now that the house just stays warm. Maybe thats why Ash isn't sleeping much today, she could be like her mummy and hate this weather!
Im such a lazy woman, I have done NOTHING today. No housework, no dishes, nada. I just cant be stuffed. Im tired which is silly because Jett slept 11pm til 10am this morning :happyforyou: and I actually managed to be asleep by 12.
He is such a grump today and chewing madly on everything he can find, including his bottle teats instead of drinking it. Its driving me insane!
Doesnt help Im also hormonal as today is "O" day soooooo I guess we'll see in 14 days whether Im going to be a Sept Mama again or not. My guess is or not :lol:
ETA - Maz, Vy is just so beautiful! I want a little lady just like yours.
Shell - im so glad that you got the cd....I checked and made sure they all worked before hand. I hope that it helps.
AnnaT - oh you could already be pg....Im jealous mate.I cant wait to have a big fat belly again even if it means GD's,throwing up everyday, having extreme moo moo pains, short breath, back pain...my god have we forgotten ROFL. Next time round but I'ld like a Jett flavour, with the same cute looks. Little boys just melt me.
Have just been working my butty off and sweating up a storm (trying to sweat this dame cold out) Ive changed Nikolaus' room, totally gutted and re cleaned Wilhelms and now Ive gotta get tea organised. Grilled chicken with a salad and vegies for the kids. I might try and squeeze a shower in there too somehow while Vy is still snoozing.
Oh right now girls do we want to have a Vic meet up or what? If so can we make it on a weekend so I can just bring one amigo instead of 3? And maybe in March or April when it's a little cooler cause I hate driving in the heat. Just thought I'd put my fealers out there and see what you guys think?
thats it, i have to shower, have a sweaty plumbers crack!! OEWWWWWWWW! TMI!
Yeah def need that Vic meet up, March sounds good, maybe end march when its cooler? Maz and AnnaT can see what day suits you both seeing as the two of you have all the driving to do. Anyway still have couple months to think bout it. Just think by then our babies will be 6-7 months old!
Well a weekend would be great as Dh and I would go down over night as he has a mate there he can catch up with :) March or April is fine for me. Maybe we could catch up for lunch or something? One day we should plan a girls night out without babies and we can all party hard. I know Maz will be up for that ;)
Ah Maz dont know if you should be jealous of me, some days I have doubts about another one so soon. I know its the right thing for me to do though, I want my life back for more than just a year or two, having them this close means that the sleeplessness and dependence on Mama is over sooner. That said I guarantee I wont get pregnant til he is atleast 1 year old :)
Just quickly Nelle-wow River looks like his daddy in your new ticker pic.
Love
Does he? Let me see. Oh and I'll finish this after I've changed stinky's nappy.
Ooh yeah he does in that photo...the mouth. And perhaps head shape? Dunno. I'm about to pop some more photos that Rans took yesterday on anyway. There's a good one already there of Rans carrying River back to his room after his bath :)
You reckon it'll take that long AnnaT? I've heard that generally people fall pregnant sooner with the second one...guess your body knows the drill by now.
But my reasons for having babies close together are similar to yours, I just want to enjoy bd, and I can't find a contraception method that allows for that. As well as Rans was close in age to his brothers and LOVED it.
I'm totally up for a weekend in March or April! Hopefully there'll be no weddings or anything on that weekend! People can stay at my place if they need! Not that there's any room, but it'd be fun! :P
AnnaT - I had the boys 18months apart and I loved it. Dont get me wrong, it was bloody hard but worth every min. IN saying that I love the age difference between the boys and Vy now. Looking at TTC at end of year for the same sort of age gap as them. God wont school drop offs and pick ups be fun. How the hell do you do it Chrissy?
I wouldnt be able to do a night out if I came down. I'd be coming down by myself with just Vy and leaving Jed and the boys at home. Depending on were we'd meet, I could always then stay at one of my 3 SIL's places
Jed just had a good thought...what about around Easter? We would be going down to Mt ELiza to stay with Jed's parents for it and it would give us a little bit of a breather. When the hell is Easter anyway? What do you think guys?
Easter is great for me as Dh has easter off work I think (atleast a week I reckon). I have no idea when it is though lol
Easter sounds good, it's the holiday where I think 'it's Easter I should be doing something' and I never do :P
Do we have plans? What will we do?
hi all..,.. cant belive it outr toilet is blocked... we are weeing on the lawn! and pooing in a bucket!!! With DD toilet training its very hard to tell her not to flush!
the cheapest quote we got for a emergency call out tonight was $450.00 ! WHAT THE!!! so we are having a plummer come tomorrow morning for $90.00 !!! blocked system!! DD said yucky mummy poo poo is on the back garden... !!!
littlep eww hope the plumber comes out today and soughts everything out
ok girls I have asked it before Jack is now only taking around 6oomls a day over the holiday he had 2 days where he was on around500-550mls I got him weighed in agnes and he has gained around a lb since CHN weigh in 3 weeks ago so I know he is gaining weight, he is sleeping thru and having good naps, when he is awake he is happy unless he hasn't pooped then a little clingy besides that extremely happy baby, so stupid:icon_question: can he survive onthat amount of formula I see CHN next on the 23rd dont know if I should try to get in earlier or not:icon_question:
rach stop stressing. Jack will let you know if he needs more. Your quiet obviously doing something right cause he osund slike he's alittle angel sleeping and being happy for you.
little p - I bet you'll have the best lawn ever with all the weee on it. We had to get our toilet unblocked and it cost us $100. Wilhelm had decided to flush 2 rolls of full loo paper down there. I could have killed him. Thankfully the plumber came straight away. We're the hell are you putting your pooh or is it pushing the TMI part lol.
Nelle - at least our bubs will celebrating something special together. Maybe a BBQ somewere in a nice park or picnic lunch. I could bring my buggers with me then. Is there a nice spot near you somewere? Were abouts in Melbourne should we meet?
thanks girl I know I am a worry wart mum just had a go at me, saying now if he was sreaming for food and couldn't get enough is when I should be worried not when he is the way he is :oops:
anyway have to obrag finally my boy woke this morning 11 1/2 hrs after he went to bed :D and he just lay there for 15min while I was on phone and taking pics of his big grin, yesterday he got up at 7am was back in bed by 8am slept till 11am went down at 2.25pm and slept till 5.30pm and was back down at 7.35pm he lay in bed for 15min just looking round then closed eyes and went to sleep till now not a peep out of him
ok gotta go drop of car to get them tyres which from price must be made of gold :lol:
