Ok gonna get ready.. hope its a happy happy day in here today..
PS.. Pinch and a punch for the first day of the month!!!!!!!!!!
I have just spent an hour reading all the posts incredible I tells ya, incredible!
Okay, before bailey wakes up -
Shell, way back on the last thread, we was talking about In-Liven! I cannot beleive the changes I have such as, my complexion on my face is smoother and even Rick has noticed, no more stiff ankles when I get up in the morning (left overs from being preg), heaps more energy although I am aware I am tired in the evenings, deal with issues that would have sent me into dispair (PND s@#t!) love playing with bails now coz I feel like the old me. Oh , the list goes on. It was WORTH THE MONEY!!!!
Kell, Day 2 of not breastfeeding and Rick is already calling my boobies his again. he he he. I told him to wait until my milk is completly gone. I feel sad in a way, kinda like I have disconnected with Bails....
Sharleen, IF you are reading this and if someone is staying in contact with the poor girl. My heart completly broke for you and I DID cry. No Bull. I have no idea what anyone is talking about re your SIl (or was it MIL?) but I know what it is like to have someone go behind your back. I hope you and little Ambah thrive and that only good things happen from now on. Can someone let her know this pls & I am kinda glad I don't do the chat thing. The other day I asked for a copy so I could kinda be a part of it....don't want it now.
Chrissy, another one leaving. I know you must be really busy but don't forget to say hi to us. I understand many of the girl in here are really missing you already....all the best.
No personals today, bit shocked at what I have read in the past hour. lets stick together. I know I was here when we were all preg, left and now have come back and there was a reason for coming back......I just love saying to Rick on BellyBelly I found out I can do this or On BellyBelly, one of the Mums suggested.... I love feeling a part of this group. I have joined other sites and they are not the same. This is a unique group and we deserve to be able to trust and be trusted.
Today is a new day............
Oh yer, nearly forgot, (1) why won't my email address show up in my profile??? & (2) Who's feeding thier bubs pasta yet? I read somewhere about some tiny little star pasta you can buy. I can't find any shops that sell it...
AHHHHHHHHHHH Maz send me some of the water. Puhleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease. I think I'll need it.
Morning ladies.
Im tired. Jett went to bed at 7:30 but woke at 11 just after I'd gone to bed, he slept through til 6:30 but I tossed and turned all night. Was having hot flushes and feeling very sick. I also needed to pee during the night for the first time since I was preggo *eek* Im sure its just the clomid doing its thang, this TWW is going to kill me. Have to go for my CD21 b/t tomorrow so I guess by Thursday I'll know if and when I ovulated. Hopefully itll prove that Im def 6dpo tomorrow.
I think its almost time for a nap sooooooooooo we're off to bed.
Vixstar - Try a traditional Continental Deli, they will like have the little star pasta or just about every other shape you would like. I've been feeding Xander pasta since about 7.5 months... he loves it! Just had a thought, you could also buy Risoni which is pasta shaped like rice.
Rikki - Is there anything I can do to help? I constantly live with a bub like you are describing right now so can totally understand how frustrated you are. If you need to get out of the house, I can meet you up at Carosel or something for a coffee?
Kelxx - I get so many comments about Xanders' eyes, such a compliment really as I have the same eyes (just hidden behind glasses)
Ambz - I love the rainbow post! I take it you already have Vista - which edition? We are looking at it, but not if nothing is compatible with it.
Nelle - Nup, no green stripes on the Aussie BabyLegs website so they must be out of stock. Bummer as I really like those ones.
ETA: AnnaT - Yep, sounds like Clomid symptoms to me. Are you still taking them or have you finished your 5 days worth? I found that once I stopped the tablets, the 'symptoms' stopped for the rest of the cycle.
Well, Xander only woke about 5 times last night so a vast improvement on the previous week of 10 + wakings. He's still full of snot but heaps better.
thanks anna and nessa for your wishes. i was reading a sleep chapter in a book last night after i had my mini meltdown, and she has all the classic waking characteristics due to teething, so will just perservere. i have started the brauers again, but might get some hylands. looking forward to seeing you sat anna, think i can survive till then. I feel like such a whinger when you go thru this every night, but just so hard when sam is away and there feels like no support. just needed a sook, so thanks girls. oh yeah, and she only woke once more and it's now 8am. i am going to def have a sleep when se does today to make sure i can cope better when she is grumpy grumpster tonight
as for the pasta vix, my neigbour who is italian gave me some of the stelline and it's great, but yesterday i cooked some of the kids pasta in a blue bag for ains as finger food and she was fine with it. made sure it was nice and soft, it's a teddy bear shape about the size of a 10c piece. we've being doing pasta for about a week now. we made a cheesey tuna pasta and ainsleigh LOVED it! i'll flick you the recipe if you like. (was her first time on tuna too)
annat - hope the symptoms subside for the rest of the cycle like anna said they did for her.
kell - enjoy your coffee with friends, we're off to swimming lessons this morning.
hello to everyone else, but most importantly
Happy 8 months birthday to Princess Ainsleigh!!!
I finished taking the clomid on CD10 soooooo over 10 days ago Anna. I still feel sick in the stomach, get headaches, just feel cruddy in general. Atleast the cramps have stopped but now I have bad gas I had really bad cramps to the point where my sister wanted to take me to hospital on Thurs and Friday of last week, I could hardly stand. Did you ever have that?
Vix - Jett's been having homemade spaghetti bolognaise for a month or so now and he LOVES it. I didnt give him any the last time we had it because it was close to bedtime and I wouldnt have time to scrub him clean (the sauce stains lol) and he stood at the table and gave us the evil eye til we gave him a taste. I usually give him more pasta than sauce, I use Vermicelli and just cut it up with a knife into smalls strips so he wont choke or anything.
boy oh boy was yesterday a hard day for me. I forgot what it's like to have a sooky baby, I've been spoilt for the last couple of months with her. She eventually went to bed at 9.15, woke once at midnight for a quick drink, then slept till 7. But I only managed to have one toasted sandwich yesterday, she was just too cranky for me to do anything else. She's a lot happier this morning, but I can hear her whinging in bed ATM. She's had a play, she's fed, she's got a clean nappy, so she can stay there !!!! She's not screaming the house down, just a little whinge, she'll be right mate!
Heath didn't get home till 9.45 and I was in bed by then. I think I cried myself to sleep, cause last night I was starting to get really angry with her. I didn't do anything to her, but I could feel myself getting to boiling point. So I put her to bed so I could go and have a shower, and would you know it she went straight to sleep! The little bugger.
ambz - oh that's so cute. Nina says baaaa and gggrrrrr a lot, but that's about it. I've told her that she has to say mum for either Mothers Day or for my b'day this month.
nessa - sorry sweetie, don't want that 3 yr old you're giving away, maybe check out ebay
anna** - 5 times is better than 10 !! Hopefully things start improving soon. I think it's Nina's gums causing her grief more than the ears, well I hope anyway.
Morning all,
Jodi- I've felt like that at times, it can get so frustrating and you end up in tears. Theres been a few occasions I've just had to leave her cry and I go have a shower (so I can't hear her) then feel ready to start again.
AnnaT- Maybe call your Dr and ask if all those things are normal side effects to have?
Rikki- Hopefully you get some rest today, Hugs to you having to do it on your own, its so hard when they get like that but even harder if you don't have someone coming home to take over for a while. Oh and happy 8 months.
*Nessa*- Oh no whats Teleah up to now? Cheeky girl she is.
Anna**- Oh god, I didn't know Xander was waking so often you poor thing. I hope he settles real soon. Are you getting some rest in the day?
Vixstar- Thanks for that info, I might have to discuss with Df about getting some. Seeing as he wastes money on ciggarettes I should buy something that is going to benifet me.
ambz- How cute Savanna saying your name like that. We have to organise something with this meet up. Are you planning going out on the sat night for your birthday? Maybe go out Fri night and come on the sunday?
I think we decided on the sunday?
Kellxx- Wow, I love the story, so exciting, wish I could say I've done something like that! You should write to Thats Life or Take 5 mag and get it published, they pay cash for those kind of stories.
God screamer is screaming again, always for her first nap of the day there is a massive battle to get her to sleep then the other nap goes down without a peep. I don't get it!
Happy 8 Months Ainsleigh!!!! Xander sends big dribbles
Hang in there Rikki - and you are not whinging! This parenting thing is damn hard work. Look forward to catching up on Saturday. Hope the swimming lessons perk her up a bit.
Jodi - I hope Nina stays much happier today, otherwise, just pop her in a satchel and express post her over here.
AnnaT - I never got what you describe, but evertone is different on Clomid. If you are worried tho, ask your fert specialist.
Nessea - Sounds like you have a 3 year old going on 16 year old!
ok I don't know what is going on here. Nina ALWAYS has a roughly 2 hour sleep mid morning. She went to sleep not long after me posting my last post, and she's awake already! She's happily playing in her cot, singing to herself. What is going on. She'd better not be starting to drop that sleep cause it's the only me time I get all day. She has an afternoon nap, but just that, a nap. NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! go back to sleep
rikki, bummer about swimming lessons . I don't know how you do it all on your own. I hear you on the slapping, pinching, scratching of the face.
anna - one naughty baby coming your way
nessa - I hope Teleah settles for you soon, hopefully it's just a phase.
well he slept thru till 4am then woke screaming I dont know what has started this, so today am dropping back to 1 solid feed of vegies only no fruit or cereal
looks like the extra formula hasn't hurt him, except OMG!! he is farting farting he ended up sleeping till 8:10am then cause it was fricken cold 16c we hopped into bed with his bottle and watched desperate housewives, and we both fell asleep again at 9.15am and slept till 10.30ish so lazy day for us
well best fly and have a shower and head to IGA for some bread and vegies, what a life
Oh god Jodi, I feel for you, having a cat npper myself I know all bout it. Theres barely enough time to make something to eat, shower etc.
rikki- At least try to get put of the house just for a bit fresh air, maybe a walk or something.
Nessa- Sounds like one very strong willed little girl!
I just got my screamer to sleep 20mins ago and now she is awake!
We've got mothers group this arvo so maybe she'll sleep in the pram on the walk there.
OIL!!!
BBL for personals
I've had a migraine now for 3 days (again) and Vy woke 3 times last night and Wilhelm twice. So over tired its not funny and i have a mountain of house work to do.
PLEASE PLEASE Shoot me
Rach, Riv wakes up crying suddenly when his teeth are bothering him. Well I think it's his teeth - bonjela sends him back to sleep.
Anyway, I'm having a good ol giggle here, heard Riv's little chuckles to himself and happy noises, looked towards his room, and there was a cheeky little head poked around the corner of the doorway! His new trick (which I discovered yesterday while I was chatting to Helen) is to work his way out of his room and into the foyer. He looks so small, and he moves so slow, but he just gets so happy. Funny kid.
ETA: Maz, oil yourself mate. Have you taken anything for your headache??
Grr i have had no interenet for like overnight and all morning and 2 pages have been written.I have read it but in one ear and out the other im afraid.
But happy 8 months ainsleigh!! A walk would be nice if she is unsettled but so's our weather!! Gotta dodge the rain!
Yes please send us a pic anna would love to see maz's handywork.
Kellxx what a fab story.Touring america hey! My sister worked on american cruise ship,had a long time boyfriend but neither were wanting to leave there country for one an other.So it wasnt meant to be!!
Maz,sorry bout the migraine.What a bugger.
Me,have to go and sit and mum and dads house for 2hrs and wait for foxtel to come and take thier decoder,so much fun!!!
OK,better run before millana has a coronary.When her dvd finishes she yells"stop" and pushes at the tv! Im scared she's gonna push it over,though it is rather large!
Ok,lets all be friends and please stalker woman be kind and no more shenanigans.
Nelle I know its not his teeth as he hasn't had any probs with them so far and he has 6 already
I do think it is just too much for little belly to cope so am dropping back to one meal a day for a few days to give him a rest then will slowly introduce it back to 3 even though he is only having 2-3 TBL at a time
well best get something to eat we been to shop and he is down for a nap so got maybe 30min till he wakes again, god I can't beleive it is 1pm already *shakehead* where did today go
incredible I tells ya, incredible!
