Yay Annie :)
Yeah Nelle, its like domino's in here. Your going to eventually fall over like us :P
Annie- Have you ever tried Vitex? Its meant to help regulate your cycle and help with the hormones that get you ovulating, just buy it at health food shop. I started on it couple months before I got preg with Ash. Good luck with it!
Ash loved gymbaroo today, it is quite expensive- $18 session, well in my eyes that is expensive but she really loved it and had a good time. Much better then when I took her few months back. We went out for coffee afterwards a few of us.
More house hunting tomor, looking at townhouses, 3br units or houses on blocks that have been subdivided. Anything that doesn't have too much land to bring the price up too high. As long as they are a decent size inside and at least have a decent size courtyard.
Annie-Goodluck with TTC I hope that things go smoothly for you I know how interesting it can be for you.
Anna-I agree with you, being on here is great support.
Nessa-I hope that you are feeling better.
Belle and Rach big hugs.
Missed so many people but Eithan has done a poo, he stinks.
Well I will be starting Eithan on milk soon and once he has got that sorted out I will be finishing BF. He only has 2-3 feeds a day now, and I dont think he will miss when I dont offer it anymore, he is kinda self weaning anyway.
Well better go.
Love
you stink eithan!!!!
Hi all,
Cold and foggy here this morning. James was up 3 times last night. I didnt need to go in tho. He sooked for a few mins and went back to sleep. Was up for the day at 5:45am wich is really early for him. Made him stay in his cot till 7am. He kept shouting out for us, but we just ignored him.
He is so thrilled that his dad is home. Has not left his dad's side all morning.
Awww how cute that James is staying by his daddy.
Yep he stunk and as soon as I took of his nappy he rolled over and sped crawled off giggling. This is his new trick and it looks adorable if not annoying, but hey he is only a baby once.
Love
sounds a bit like caitlyn, helen........STINK.....the whole downstairs was so FERAL yesterday after one little miss decided to poo, when she had a day time sleep, and im lucky if she sleeps for 20 minutes usually of a day (if that), but the stench of her ars must of knocked her out as she slept for 2 hours.....yes it was a bit of delemer....do i wake her......do i change her........i let her sleep... :)
Hehehe, Chrissy, yes I would have let her sleep too. Maybe she flet better getting it out.
How long did it take for you guys to get a regular AF. I am up to day 21 and I dont think that I have ovulated yet, so I dont think I will be getting AF again for a bit. I do have PCOS and irregular AF anyway so I dont know if this is affecting it, but after I had Bella I went to 28day cycle but the pill stuffed it up again, so who knows.
Love
Looks like everyone is having a busy sat!
HelenP- I just got my first real AF so have no idea yet.
Meg- Be nice break for you too if James decides to stick with his daddy. And yes 5:45 too early a start and too cold!
Ness- How you going? Sounds like th e-bay store will keep you busy and your mind off things, let us know bout it and we can all be your customers.
Not much here, found couple places we like. there 2 on the block at both places so its not too bad, i don't really want to buy where there are too many townhouses/ units together. Very nice inside and have parks very close by which is good seeing as they don't have much of backyard.
Shell - Isn't house hunting draining? I hated it. It is a very emotional thing. I am glad that we have sorted all our house stuff out.
Not much happening here. Tim has gone out for the night. I went out for lunch with a friend today, and Tim looked after james. It was nice to go out without having to worry about what he would get into!
Hope everyone has a good sat night. I bought the new Harry Potter and might head off to bed to get reading....................
HelenP - I still haven't got my AF back! I had a couple of spots today, so maybe she's coming back soon (this happened a couple of weeks ago and got no AF).
I've got AF, and she's pretty regular, with a few wierdances here and there. But I was like clockwork before, so I'd kinda expect to be regular again.
Shell, with backyards (hope this doesn't complicate things for you), but think about what you'll do if you have a rowdy boy who needs to expend some energy. Or are you hoping to have moved again by that stage? (I am really hoping we'll be somewhere with a good backyard by the time River's older)
Just came back from a Nutrimetics spa party...I'm so sleepy now, we all lay back and drank tea and listened to relaxing music and made our skin soft...mmm. I booked a party for late August, just so I can lie back again and have a snooze. :p (And I got free stuff for booking.)
Might head to bed...mmmm....sleeeepy. Hope everyone gets a great sleep tonight! Rans is at a buck's night and he'd better not wake me (OR River) when he comes in!
Hey all,
yesterday was the day from hell and I had a bit of a 'mummy meltdown', won't go into the details but thank goodness DH came home early at 3.30 pm but then he had to go out for dinner and then the meltdown continued....but today has been much better, we went out for brunch then wandered around an antiques fair and then went and joined the gym up the road (they have a creche so I can go and have a work out and Rylee will be looked after - will give me a break even if it is only for 45 mins a few days a week).....anyway I kinda feel like I am back on track.
AF came back for the first time last week - coincided with me finishing BF so I was expecting it.....so will see how long it takes to TTC - not that we are desperately trying but not doing anything to stop it either :)
Have a good one.
Laurin
Wow Ness - I dont have that much time to read. It will take me weeks to finish it.
Laurin - Hope you are OK. I think you need a "me" day. Can you leave Rylee with DH and have a day to yourself?
Nelle - Nice to have a night out with something relaxing.
I got AF back about 2 months after having James and it is regular as clockwork. and I was fully BFing then. Needless to say we were using extra precautions as I didnt want to end up like TIm's mum and have 2 babies under 12 months old. It only took me 2 weeks to get preg with James, so I must be pretty fertile.
Congrats on finishing the book Ness... I just don't have that sort of time to read! Like Meg, it'd take me weeks to get through it.
Idiot Df has lost his phone again! His dad said someone rang him at midnight saying they had it but now its off so maybe battery went dead who knows? He is always losing things when hes pi$$ed, he just puts stuff down on the bar and walks off.
Laurin- :hug: Could you afford to maybe fly and go stay with your parents one time when DH is away next, that way they'd be there to help out and prolly make you feel heaps better to see them again. The gym sounds good to, all those endorphins flowing.
Nelle- have thought of that, backyard isn't too small, enough room for like a swing set or trampoline but prolly only just. I will have to make sure get the kids to the park (very close) and get them into sports!
BBL Ash is getting into mischief (again)
Morning! Nothing much to say but ohh poop I have to leave for church in 3 minutes and I haven't showered yet....can anybody say 'late again'? :p Better rush, River needs his nails cut too so I don't get my eyes gouged out when I'm praying. Oh, and he's hitting the lappy with a spoon, great.
Actually, just thought, he can't gouge my eyes out if they're shut can they. LUCKYYYYY.
Have a great day guys!
OWWWWW he just hit me with the spoon! OWWWW my knuckles. CONFISCATED!!
Nelle.. haha you make me laugh crazy woman.
Ness.. good stuff finishing the book. If i were to read it i think id be still reading it when im 64. Just dont do reading.. i like the pictures!
Meg.. glad you had a lovely day out.
Helen.. i cant remember, being i stopped BF at 9 days so they came back pretty much straight away. Though i do remember i had a month of continual spotting. Next time AF was properly due i went back to complete normal.
Shell.. did they tell your dad where they were or where they could find it? That sux though. When are the auctions for those places? Well at least it will be a start hey, then you can upgrade and get your own yard in a few years hopefully.
Laurin.. :hugs" hun, hope today is a better day for you.
Well we had a worrying 2 days with Jesse. Friday night had a raging temperature and wouldnt stop crying.. which came on in a matter of 5 minutes after we woke from his afternoon sleep. We gave him some panadol which calmed him down and also the temperature. He had his dinner and bath but wasnt himself. Yesterday was quite lathargic, no temperature, but if you made eye contact with him he'd start crying. Didnt want to do anything but just sit. He ate his food and drank his bottles but just seemed like a different person. As if he didnt know who i or DH were. He just looked at us really weird like with a straight face. Day went on and he seemed to get better, also after the panadol. Tried to get into the doctors but were booked out and the medical centre was closed. Were contimplating taking him to the hospital if things didnt pick up. In the evening he had his dinner and bath and after that just seemed so much better. This morning he's his old self. Was really strange and kinda scarey. He has no rashes or anything. Is pooing as per norm. Dunno. Am just staying close to him.
the main thing is that he is OK Kell
hi ya girls
just poping in to let you know im still alive
Kell - breath matie
BBL have to change pooh bum and blah
Maz- Hows the nausea and all those horrible things going? Settled at all? You still getting dizzy spells?
Kell- its such a worry now being a mum isn't it. Hows Jesse now? Prolly was one of those 24 hour type virus's where you can't do much cept lotsa TLC and panadol.
Nelle- Lol, your posts always make me laugh. So are you one of those ppl that are always late and your friends say "oh we better tell Nelle half houe earlier to get her on time?"
Df still hasn't got his phone back, the guy who called last night and said he'd call this morn never called back and when we tried to call the phone went straight to voice mail. I thought maybe battery dead but Df said they had a 3 phone also so had a charger for it cause his dad asked that. So we dunno whats happening, maybe they decided to keep.
hi girls.. have had a few issues with b/f the boy of late.. he seemed like he was not getting enough.. i was getting a bit down about it to be honest.. however things seem the be improving the last days or so...
so ill be back more and more!!! WATCH OUT!
xoxo anna
Annie - Really happy to hear that things seem to be on the improve re breastfeeding. You're doing a great job breastfeeding him, so hang in there!
OMG... I've got AF!!!!!!!! Well, sorta anyway - it's pretty light. It's my first AF since November 2005!
Fingers crossed that we'll now be able to start TTC properly now.
YAY Anna, thats so fantastic for you .. i am so happy that you can start to hopefully TTC easier.. im going tio email you a really funny website to get the gender right!.. insert shallow penis! LOL
That's great news for TTC Anna! Hope things come really easy for you. Ooer, does that sound wrong? I hope falling pregnant is fast and easy for you this time is what I meant...
That's great that Alex's feeding is improving. Could there have been a change in hormones (AF, pregnancy??) or something you ate to make him go off, or has it been sickness or teething that's been the culprit, or something completely different? It can be tough hey.
River is so easily distracted, and it's so cute to see him looking up at me enquiringly with milk dripping from his mouth. :p Not sure where he gets his lack of focus from...
Shell, hope your df gets his phone back! How hard is it for him to keep it in his pocket though? :p So glad Rans doesn't drink in that respect, he forgets enough stuff as it is, lol!
Hope everything's okay with the Jessman Kell.
I've napped since about 5pm, Rans brought Riv into me for a feed at 6, and then I woke up just before 10. I'm eating a bowl of cornflakes and then heading back there soon. Hope everyone (and their families!) sleep well tonight. xo
Hey all,
Rylee had her first birthday party to go to today - went well, until she did a huge projectile vomit all over myself and her (including her new party dress), yeah, the poor girl, keeps bringing up all her formula, I am taking her to the doctor tomorrow, happened three times Friday, once yesterday and once today (so far).....
Anna - go, go, go , on the TTC
Annie - it sometimes gets a bit stressful when you are bfing and you wonder if they are getting enough, your doing great to be doing it for this long!!!
Nelle - wtg on the napping tonight...
Not much else to report, having people round for dinner, not in the mood for it TBH....
Speak tomorrow
Laurin
ANNA thats fantastic news, now gwt that whip out girl :)
talking of AF, it has been around 3 months since that cantraception injection RAN OUT, ands 3 doctor visits later, i have not stopped bleeding, spotting, i had around a week of nothing when craig was in hospital, but then the bledding started again, i bit the bullet, and went on the pill to get me back on track, its day 8 on the pill with it stopping the bleeding for 3 days......now i have a full blown period again!!! :(
Whats a nappy hunt?
Chrissy, that totally sucks, weren't you bleeding/ spotting the whole 3 months you were on it also? Those Drs better sort it out. Go see a female Dr (if you haven't already) I reakon a woman would be more sympathetic to that prob and want to solve it.
Laurin- Maybe her digestive system just getting used to the formula? I don't know, maybe change brands or give smaller amounts more often so she still gets same in 24 hour period? I hope you sort it out.
Anna**- Sounds like your body is firing up again, :crossfingers: you get lucky real soon with ttc.
We gonna go southland today, mon seems to be out day at the shops, less crowds. Just gotta get few things from coles and want to go buy Ash some wooden blocks seeing as she seemed to enjoy playing with them at mums group last week.
Shell - still feel yucko but atleast im not spewing anymore. Stil having dizzy spells and now my eyes feel like sandpaper..Jed has ordered me to slow down (ha ha ha)
14 weeks yesterday...unbelieveable and I dotn feel pg at all just sick and blah!
Anna - YAY on getting your flow back...woo hoo you could be UTD by the end of the year woman
Annie - as Anna said Hat of to you for BF this long...im jealous of all you girls that can do it full stop. I hope I get it down pack this time round.
I AM NOT DOING THE NAPPY HUNT this year!!!!!! I got to hooked on it last time round.
grrr VY keep sfinding my smurf stash
BBL
im doing the nappy hunt as well..
xoxo
I'm not doing the hunt this year... spent way too much time hunting around online last year!
Chrissy.. i had issues when i first started the pill too. I bled for a month until my next period was actually due.. but it maybe different circumstances? Not good though you poor thing. How is Craig doing now?
Maz.. i have to agree with Jed! Go lay on the couch or something!
Shell.. hope you have a nice day out. Have you taken any more pics of the princess lately? Would love to see them! Shes such a sweety. That sux about the phone. I hope they charge it and call you back. Does your DF have insurance with the phone?
Laurin.. hope the little miss is ok and is just a bug or something.
Nelle.. i bet that long sleep made you feel so refreshed! Thanks hun.
Anna**.. yay best of luck with the TTCing. So what do you have planned for mr man's birthday cake? or is it a secret? Cant wait to see it.
Annie.. glad things are picking up with the BFing. Look forward to seeing you around more, and in a months time!
Caddie.. how you doing hun? Have you started your treatment?
Meg.. thankyou.. Hows things with you and little James? is he sleeping good now?
Jesse seems to be back to his old self now which is wonderful. I missed that little boy the past few days. Its scarey when your baby looks at you and cried as if he doesnt know who you are. Gonna go spend some time with my little man..
Chrissy, I've heard that's normal with the injection, for some to spot the whole time, and others to get nothing. I have a friend that spotted her whole time too. Unlucky for you though. Hope everything goes back to normal on the pill.
Argh, might come back another time, River can reach the delete key which is really annoying! Cheeky smiley little thing.
Kell - Great to hear that Jesse is back to his normal self. Hate it when they are sick. As for Xander's cake... I'm doing a very understated one, mainly because it'll be the last time because I think from next birthday on he is gonna want ultra bright loud typical kids cakes! This year I am doing a clown model on top of a RTR iced cake. Very simple.
Chrissy - That's gotta suck re the injection. Hopefully it all gets sorted out soon so you can start feeling 'normal' again.
Nelle - I've given up typing when Xander is around. It just ends in fits of laughter (what else can you do when they delete your posts!)
Hi all,'
James was up for 2 hours last night. He is gnawing on his hands so I think he is teething again. Cant wait for him to have all his teeth!!! So we are all a little tired this morning.
Kell - Glad Jesse is better.
Nelle - You must feel nice and refressed now.
NEss - Are you still playing notpr0n? I got up to level 6 then stoped.
Maz - time is flying, before you know it, your new bub will be here.
Laurin - Hope you sort out the vomiting. Poor little bub!
Shell - Have fun shopping.
Belle _ how you goin?
Caddie - Hope you are getting on top of your new diet.
Chrissy - I have heard those things can take a while to get your af back into rhythm.
Annie - hope the bf is back on track. I am still BF. Although I am giving formula as well now.
Anna - good luck with TTC.
AnnaT - How are you going?
Hi to everyone that I have missed!!!!
Big W have special this week on huggies nappies, big boxes $30.
We are back from the shops and Ash should be tired but instead she is playing and laughing in her cot, oh well as long as there are no tears.
Meg- won't it be great when they get all there teeth, altho then they'll prolly find something else to keep us awake with.
Kell- I have been so slack with photo taking, I don't think I've really taken any for ages! Then I get slack with downloading them onto the computer. I better take a few this week.
Maz- Yes, slow down, we all order you too!
Okay I'm still sitting here wondering what on earth this nappy hunt is. I figure its regarding cloth nappies. Do you search for certain kinds?
I want to know what a nappy hunt it too!!!
hi girls
