Babies Born September 2006 #22

:D Thanks guys for all of your help. I am starting to feel a lot better. I think I let myself get in a rut and now that I am making my way out of it, I am trying really hard not to get back there again. I had PND after having Bella so I think I was getting a little scared I was getting it again which drew me closer to it, if you know what I mean. Ok so here is a go at some personals, sorry some will be a bit vage as I will be going from memory.

AnnaT-I had a bfn before I got a bfp. Just hang in there mate. I am sending you lots of :bluedust: .

Kellxx-OMG they gave him the worng immunisation.:eek: Poor little bubba. I hope that everything goes well and that he doesnt end up with a rash.

Someone mentioned ways to produce a girl. *no orgasm-the male sperm has a tougher time of getting through the cervix and when you orgasm your muscles contract to draw the sperm upwards(so really a great way to fall preg) *yup try and dtd before o'day and then not again. That said it's still 50/50 and you can still have sex on o'day and still produce a girl. I think there is a article on the belly belly main site.https://www.bellybelly.com.au/concep...hettles-method

Nelle-Thanks for your PM I will get back to you soon with my details. It would be great to catch up. You should definantly look at holidaying done here. BFP maybe, goodluck.

Shell-Ash looks so cute in your ticker.

Maz-Thanks for your support aswell. Arent families grand. My fitness is for some of the same reasons as you. I want to run around with my kids, but also be fit and healthy enough for my grandkids. I hope Wilhelms party and bday goes well. I think I know what pic you are putting in the comp. It's got my vote already.

Jodi-Hugs. I hope that Nina sorts herself out soon.

Laurin-Gosh London, I hope you have a great time.

Anna*-Wow 5 mths today. The time has gone way too fast. That means Eithan is 5mths in 2 days eek. I have yet to look at your photos yet, but I am glad that you had a good day.

Adele-Thanks for the info re baby blues, makes me feel better. Glad to hear that the kids slept for you last night.

Chrissy-:whip: Goodluck with all of the baby dancing I hope you get a bfp real soon.

Caddie-Thanks hun. I hope that everything turns out ok with Ruby's head. I think I have missed something. What is this 6-7mth thing?

Now I cant see anymore posts so will be going a little bit more by mem.

Sharleen-Thanks for your PM. I hope that everything is going well. We might not be TTC again either so I am feeling a little bit down about that too.

ugh sorry my mind has gone blank, but you know I love you all and will endevour to do personals to you all when I can.

Love

When we were trying with Nina, we DTD just before o'day and didn't have sex anymore that month as I got sick, and we ended up with a girl. But like you said helen, it's 50/50 so you never know!
You sound a little better in your post Helen so I hope that's a sign of good things to come. Remember we are all here for you.

nelle - I think I've missed something ... do you think your pg? Are you trying :confused:

Speaking of this, I've been having some minor pains in the belly, sore boobs, run down even more than I normally am, etc, etc. All these things were signs I was pg with Nina. I got a BFP 10dpo with Nina so I could be early stages. And we've been oopysing without being careful :eek:

ok call me a stupid ar$e but I just read everyones posts and cried. I cant get over how much we support and care for each other. Oh its gonna be one of those days I tell ya. Im always like this around WIlhelms birthday, I just hope that this year he actually gets it.
ON a different note for everyone that's got teething prob's, i got some heinz teething rusks from BIlo and they worked a treat. Vy grinded a wedge in one side of the thing and it stopped her from winging at me all day. try them girls.
bbl for personals, i need to blow my nose

just dropping by to say Hi had to read 5 pages from last thread 3 from this :eek: and am now dizzy from being in front of comp LOL

so no personals, Jack is doing great, we have, mums group at 1pm so should go do some more work while he is napping on floor :)

Caddie, mum couldn't get any red scrap stuff will be in post by lunch today hope you like what she got

maz I agree, it's great that we've got so much support from one another.
I tried Nina on the rusks and she screws her face up and throws it away lol . I guess she's not intersted. She's been asleep since 10am now ... this is good!!

rach - did you have a good time away? Good to hear Jack is behaving himself, at least one baby is.

hey girls,

just got the floors to do now then im finished. but i dont feel like doing them i might do them later tonight it might be a bit cooler then.
;)

shellbell - i paint anything i can get my hands on lol. ahhh no on the hot weather tomorrow is going to be 40 out here thats when i start to cry lol. try and stay cool..

helen - your welcome if you want to find out more do a search for beyond the blue they have lots of info on there. me and simon love that site as they have helped out simon heaps over the years.

anna - i love it when its cold here. hate it when it hot here i cant win. im a fuss pot lol.

ahh maz you big sook :lol: .

well im off to have some lunch now while riley is asleep.

chat later

Adele

oh the january photo comp pics are up..there's so many good ones

Hi gals,

Thanks for all your hugs and worries for Jess. He seems so far so good. Will see as the week goes on. Hopefully he wont break out in a rash.. though every tiny little dot now im worrying about.

Jodi.. Jess and i took a trip to Penrith this morning and got your Bonds suits. We got you a pink one and a purple one for lil Nina.. should keep her a lil cooler hopefully. Will post it today when DH gets home (have a post box across the road) so keep an eye out.
:eek: OMG Could you be...??
Ohh im so gonna try the Girl theory!!Even if we end up with a boy thats fine. I wish it was October already!!

Shellbell.. aww i do that all the time when putting Jesse's little clothes away. He's topo big for his bouncer now, and doesnt like it anymore either, so we had to put that away too. He use to love it when he was little. I was going through some photos last night of him and theres one one his first day home.. he was sooo little.. what happened!
YAY.. hopefully Ash is on a roll and will start lessening he wake ups!

Maz.. you dont have to get Vy christened if you dont want to. I know alot of people dont do it these days.

AnnaT.. im so impatient too and when someone else has something i want i feel exactly the same towards them.. but here.. hope this helps :bluedust:

Laurin aka Boo Boo .. Ohhh wowwww!!!How exciting!!!! Id love to go to England! If you see The Beatles over there, say hi for me and tell them i love them! Hehe.. well, Paul and RIngo anyways.. if you happen to see John or George, make sure you take a photo and we can start a scandle like the Elvis one... Theyre alivvee!!!

Caddie.. Panadeine fort are great.. so are Nurophen Plus! Hope you and Ruby are feeling better today.

Helen.P.. I have had a little blood too. About 3 or 4 weeks ago i had it over a few days then stopped.. then this morning i had some more. I researched it on the net last time and they said if it was dark coloured blood then it is usually from inside and can be serious but if its light or bright red then its possible just a hemeroid or something. I had a quite large roid after Jesse and am just hoping thats all it is. Im kinda a little scared about going to the doctor about it too as im sick of people looking down there. Ill see how it goes over the next few days though. Hope youre ok though and i hope things pick up for you. You know we're all here if you need someone to vent to or have a chat or a sholder or a cuppa :hugs: I think you need some time to yourself. Would DH mind the kids for you one afternoon or weekend so you can go for a coffee or a walk around the shops? My DH does that for me every now and then and its a great way to clear your head.

Nelle.. WOAHHHHH! Happy 1000 Posts!:biggrin:

Rach.. thats good to hear about Jack doing well.. very pleased.

Ok finally caught up. Gonna go clean the house a little before the Jessman wakes up.

Hope all the munchkins out there are behaving themselves!

Ciao for now
xx

OH wow!! Has anyone put any photos in? :biggrin:

hey Kell - we're not ment ot say anything you dag but when I read the caption I laughed.
Jodi - I had a look on satuday for the suits aswell - all sold out! @rseholes! sorry.

What a chatty bunch we are today!

Helen - I hope you feel a bit better (you sound a little better) after getting all that off your chest... like the other girls said, we're all here to listen and help however we can

Jodi - Xander is 7.4kgs, so lighter than Nina now... his growth is finally slowing a little bit (about time!)

Maz - I'm gonna try the rusks when Xander starts solids next month, till then I'm having heaps of success with frozen breastmilk cubes which I put into a tommee tippee food-trap so it is safe for him and not a choke risk. Verrrry messy, but hey, he's happy and anyway being messy is half the fun when you are a kid.

Naughty naughty to all you girls who have been oopsying!

Opps! Ill edit my post before i get in trouble :)
Haha yeh i know.. I thought it was funny :)

Anna - thats a fantastic idea, i never even heard of a food strap, I might go and investigate...thanks hon

Anna**.. is that those cups that have a lid on top that have slits for little ones to get their snacks out of without spilling?

i thing the food trap is that has a mesh bit they but in there mouth and the food sits inside it and has a handle.

maz that photo of vys room you sent ages ago is that a toy boxand bookcase together

Helen my mum and dad live in the next street.They are going for extended holiday caravaning where ever they like in australia.They wont get to see ruby crawl or walk and will probably just make it for her first bday.Millana loves them and my sister to death and non stop talks to them.She is going to be so lonely now and me too so i may have to go to playgroup an extra day for company.They are my stress relief and now i will only have my 2 friends here.But thats life i suppose.
Just spent money i dont have on scrapping stuf. OH OH.
Took me 20min to read the posts bbl for more but im talking to belle on msn!

That's the one! Maz - I sent you a link to the website. They are less than $10.

Hi girls

Wow you guys talk to much I cant keep up!!! Julia's doing really well she chats heaps, shes on her playgym at the moment chatting non stop. Shes 4 Months today!!!! WOW where has the time gone!!! I went shopping yesterday in Big W and bought her the cutest two piece swimming costume, we are taking her swimming next weekend! cant wait, will take pics!

MAz - havent pushed DH out the window yet, LOL Im cooking him a roast chook tonight so hopefully he will be in good spirits today... apparently his work is crap and hes been grumpy with me grrrr it explains a lot.

Anna** -- love your ticker!! is Xander behaving today or still playing up?? can you see his teeth yet? Anna - happy 5 months to Xander today!!!

Nelle - hellooooo hows River?

Helen - mate thanks for your email, I will respond very soon, I just want you to know I am thinking of you and sending you big hugs mate.

Caddie - great to catchup with you mate, hope Ruby is doing better today.

Kellxx - OMG at your Dr, geeez how rude of them and incompetent... how is your little Jesse doing today is he ok?

AnnaT- goodluck today if you test? any news???

Rikki - Hows Ainsleigh? are you guys still on hols? hope you are havinga good time.

Shell - hello... howd you go with the sippy cup???

Sharleen - so sorry about your doggie, Im sending you big hugs mate.

Nessa - hello and welcome!!

:hello: to Laurin, Rach, Chrissy T, Adele, AMBZ, Little P...im so sorry if I have missed anyone.. its so hard without the list on the front page anymore, I will be back to attempt more personals when Julia is a asleep.

MERRIE - where are you mate???? thinking of you...

Hey Belle matey good to see you! Yeah River's doing well! You'll have to take pics of Belle going swimming!

Oh and Anna, can you send me that link for that foody thing you put ice cubes in - sounds really great - any toy Riv can put in his mouth is sure to be a winner!

Now. I googled 'Fisher Price' and the second link was online games - River had a good ol smile mashing the keys and making things pop up! Worth a look!

Hey where are all you AWOL girls? Rikki? Merrie? Who else hasn't been here? What happened to you Pip?

Well, got a :bfn: first one, and I'm happy with that. I would have been happy with a BFP too, I'm not really fussed...but I would have been surprised with it, because I'm hoping that the breastfeeding will mean I don't ovulate for awhile - mum reckons she didn't get her period back til I was about 1! Here's hoping I'm the same!

Hi girls, Just popping in quickly as I am flat out!!!

Kiara has been rolling for back to tummy now!!! My clever little chicken... I missed it the first time as I was at a job interview... which I landed... how good I am working a few shifts ina HUGE baby store!

That's all my news ATM, I am busy trying to clean my house, and get organised for work and life!!!

Sorry no personals this time... fingers crossed everyone is doing great and those beautful bubbas are doing even better...

luv ya's all

Mel

ps... happy 4 months Julia

hey Mel how Kiara? good to see you, awww Kiara looks so cut on her ticker...

Jodi - mate thanks for the chat the other day on msn. Hows Nina today??

Nelle - definately thank god found my lost camera under 3 months worth of filing LOL

Hey Anna**, would you be able to send me the link too?

Belle.. i know, very rude indeed! He seems totally fine today, his uual happy self so will see how things go.

Yay for Kiara rolling over!What a clever girl!!

hi girls,
well, it has taken me two days to sort through the posts! three full threads since i left two weeks ago. our holiday was brilliant, and ainsleigh was a gem. all the family loved her to bits (of course!) and she was a perfect angel on the planes, even with several delays. the christening went really well, although missy was so tired she fell asleep half way through the photo session!

can't keep up with personals, but as far as hearing tests go, generally the one they give you in hospital can give you a false deaf reading, but not false hearing if that makes sense... and grommets are a very commen and simple operation that involve putting tiny tubes (the white of your little fingernail) in to the eardrum to drain the fluid that is collecting behind the eardrum. grommets will lead to an immediate improvement in hearing if fluid is the problem. hope that helps, got to get back to the laundry... will try to keep up!

Happy 4 months to Julia and Happy 5 months to Xander!

Wow Ash had a nap for 1.5 hrs this morn, she never goes longer than 40mins!I hope this is a sign of things to come.

Tried Ash with her MagMag cup this morn, its good in the fact she doesn't really need to suck, just biting it gets some out, I just tried her with water to practice and I think 99% she spat out but its just practice to get her into using it. Luckily she didn't scream or cry I think she thought of it as a toy so we'll just have a play around for awhile then in few days may try formula or EBM in it.

Kell- I'm stressing when Ash is too big for her bouncer cause we still use it sometimes to get her to sleep in the day! Don't know what to do without it.

Mel09- Congrats on the job, and the rolling, still trying to get Ash to roll, she doesn't seem interested in that.

Nelle- Hope I don't get my period til Ash is 1, the later the better!

Helen.p- Good to hear you sound better, just keep getting things off your chest rather then let them get on top of you.

Hello to everyone, hope your all having a great day.

Havent tested. Im having some minor cramps off and on so I guess Im out for this month.
I might test tomorrow anyway just to make myself disappointed one more time so I can get on with it.

to hot to think to hot to think
Vy's just screamed the house down and deafend poor Belle on the phone - sorry mate.
Anna thank you so much for that link. Ive botta go to big w this week and pick up some pics so im gonna go and buy one of those guys. I think its a fabulous idea.
HOpe you had a great holiday Rikki.
Ah ive gotta go, headache starting again...

hey i just went for a swim and got a pic of Caity in her new AIROPLANE, she even held onto the handles

Belle, sorry i wasnt in the house when you started a chat on msn

chrissy - just gorgeous! Does she like the water? Nina loves the water, she's in the pool almost every day. We have something similar to that, but a bit more boring lol

shell - thanks for the chat

maz - I know what you mean about the heat. It's stinking hot here once again. a/c running all day again. Our elect bill is gonna be huge!

Chrissy, what a cutie!!!! I so wish we had a pool. Jesse loves his baths.. so im sure he'd love the pool. Its like he tries to jump in before his clothes are off!

Shellbell.. yeh i know.. Jesse still fits in his but he just doesnt like sitting in it anymore. Though when i hang out the washing he sits in it then but any other time no way maaa.

Kellxx - I don't have your e-mail and the one in your profile doesn't work. Basically if you go to the Tommee Tippee home page and intp the feeding area, you'll see a section for bowls'n'cutlery... just follow that link and it should be there

Ok will do.. heres my email anyways: kelknott@optusnet.com.au
Thanks Anna

maz, just found the rusks in the cupboard, which i totally forget about, and Caityn has chewed it down to an absoulute mess all over herself, but hey it keep her quiet for ages!!
she is also on solids, and cant get enough of them( i have breed an absoulute pig)

I hear you on the food chrissy - Vy's eating now (jeds feeding her) My god she looks so grown up in her ticker pic. All hail rusks!!!!!
i totally kicked buttock on ebay. I sold my 12 new just washed coloured nappies for $41. Ive gotta get some $$$ together to get my ensuite finished.
Chat later ladies when I dont have sweat dripping in places that are TMI

ainsleigh was weighed and measured today... and she is 8.66kg :eek: and 66cm. she is overweight for her height, but not to a worrying degree. the CHN said it is probably because she is on the thickened formula for reflux. her reflux is improving, so i will try and wean her off it and see how we go.

and yes maz, we too will be trying to conceive at the end of the year...although someone has stolen my perfect baby today and left me a grumpy one in her place. poor little mite is always more unsettled when daddy goes back to work

Rikki- Wow shes growing big, at least shes healthy, wouldn't really worry bout being considered in the overweight part, she'll eventually grow out.

maz- i saw on weather it was hot up there, luckily in Melb got to 24 but hot for next few days. Hows Vy? settled with the screaming? All our bubs are getting unsettled.

I know my chemist stocks Tommee Tippee so some stage I'll go check out those
meshy food thingys, God I've already forgotten what they're called, just looked not so long ago at them!

hey girls,

just a short one before i go to bed.

wow its seems all out kids like there milk or food. nice heathly babies.

sharleen - hope all goes well for your nephew.

maz- well done with ebay.

well im off have a good night

Adele

Sharleen - Our thoughts are with you and your family for your nephews' well-being. I hope all is ok.

Rikki - Wow, last time I caught up with you, Xander and Ainsleigh were the same size, now she is more than a kilo heavier... your arms must be getting sore! I wouldn't worry about her being a little bigger than average, I mean, we don't all fit into the same size clothes (as adults) so I don't know why everyone expects babies to.

Shell - It's called a Fresh Food Holder, but here it is called the Boobsicle!

Kellxx - Thanks for the e-mail addy, I've added you to my msn.

Maz - That's a pretty good price for terry flats! If you are any good at tie-dying you should tie dye some and list them... I got heaps for the ones I did.

I'm going to go get Xander weighed and measured tomorrow, I know his growth has slowed heaps... I bought all these 0 sized clothes because he was growing so fast, but it looks like he'll be in 00 for at least a couple more weeks (maybe a month). I know it's perfectly normal for a breastfed baby to slow growth wise about now, but I'm just so used to his massive weight gains! Oh, and I am starting to think our horror run with him as of late may be reaching the end... finally! He went off to sleep without a peep tonight again, so fingers crossed I get another good nights' sleep.

Well done on ebay maz!! Its addictive.I just sold stuff to BB girls.
Ruby took ages to settle tonight.She would drift off then rouse screaming.I could feel she had wind pain and i think her teeth too.Panadol helped but i feel like im drugging her?
Hope your nephew is okay sharleen.How scary and i hope its nothing serious.Poor parents.
Rikki,wow.That is a chuba chup girl. Ruby is plumpy but is only 6kgs.She must be short as she has michelin man rolls! But ansleigh will probably even out when she starts walking.
Just did some srapbooking and im off to bed for some shut eye!
