meg when you go to post reply scroll downt he page the last 18 or so posts are there :hug:
Meg- maybe J can be a little turd for DH today :lol:
Laurin- hope you had agreat time with hubby last night. so glad you are all back on aussie soil as a family together.
OK i have noticed something. Do some people have to be so me, me me??? (and by noe means am i saying this about everyone) there are some really great women here who try there hardest to include everyone.I mean I am sorry people have so much crap going on but really is it hard to say something to some one else once in a while. I mean its all well and good to lets us know how youa are going with everything but the negativity about somethings are just so crappy. NO wonder this thread has gone dead.
I know i am guilty of doing me posts, just depends what mood i am in or if i have something valid to say.
And please Im really not up to starting with anyone about what i just said. If you want to address me about it please do it via pm cause i dont want tit for tat crap happening i just want people to sometimes care alittle more about others.
removed post as I was annoyed with myself for takign offense to your post Nessa and posting about it here
if you have a problem why dont you PM the person/persons rather than bringing it up in here
ok enough said
Rach- I am sorry you cant concieve without help but i am not going to stop talk about my pg because of that. This is family forum that focus on being pg/ Babies and TTC.
If the comments regarding being pg hurt you so much maybe its best if you stick to the TTC section. I dont know. I didnt have to go through the pain of not being able to concieve.
Dont think i am telling you to go away as im not. Def NOT. Its really hard to word it the way i want to.
All i was saiyng was i wish that it was more active in here but its hard when alot of posts dont provoke interaction (good interaction)
No one has said that. I think if given a choice 99% of women would chose the sex of thier child. Preference does not mean you dont want.:
I dont want another girl/boy
And now what I am saying makes no sense cause you edited your post Rachgee thanks:
narky comments get to me
:
ness I have never said I was angry or upset with any of you being pg I wish I was as lucky as many of you but am I not allowed to say I am jelous etc
so because of this I should stick to the TTC forums well perhaps the comments about being tired of being pg etc should stay in the pg forums seeing as this is about our sept buddies
I give up I thought we were all adults but at times it is obvious the age difference between everyone
so thats all I ahve to say
hope you rall having a good day becuase I am not.........and I am now going to be one of those that say cya for now
thank you for all your support over the last 17 mths I wish you well
I've had such a full on morning, and I've only been awake for 2 hours!
Heath had to go back to the specialist today. Since his op last year, the problem hasn't gone away. He forgot to take the previous ultrasounds with him, so he rang me just as me and Nina were getting out of bed to say 'can you bring down, NOW!'. So I had to literally throw some clothes on Nina and myself, throw her into the car and go down there. They've given him another lot of medication to try. This medication causes infertility while taking it, so luckily we're already utd and not ttc. The specialist doesn't even know if it will get rid of the problem, and it could take a few months to see results. Plus he said with all the problems he's had/having with his testicles, it's advisable for Heath not to get a vasectomy later in life as it would cause too many problems for him.
Yesterday I went over to a girlfriends place, and Nina was playing dress ups with her 5 year old. Nina was putting on little high heels and ballerina skirt and walking around the house. She looked sooooo cute! I should have taken some pics.
I meant to say this week, happy 18 months to Xander, Eithan & Nina!!! :dance: I can't believe they're 18 months old already!
nessa - I have been MIA from this thread lately. Partly because I've felt there was nothing to contribute, and partly because I'm going through a rough patch emtionally and haven't really felt up to chit chat. But I'm feeling heaps better emotionally the past couple of days, so hopefully I can get on a little more. But I do understand what you're talking about.
kel - wow, I can't believe they told you not to give Jesse a biscuit that you had bought from home. I would be trying Meg's suggestion of saying he has allergies.
vixstar - great to see you and Bailey are doing so well.
I have to run, someone at the door. bbl.
ETA: Ach, took too long to post! Not quite sure where age comes into things Rach? And Jodi!! Poor Heath, no vasectomy hey, you gonna be the old woman who lives in a shoe? :p (I hope you know that nursery rhyme, otherwise I sound nuts.) That's great that emotionally you're feeling in a better place!
Hehe, let's all point and laugh at Ness the crazy lady talking to herself. :p
(by the way Rach, you're more than welcome to edit your posts, it's just makes me giggle how now Ness looks like a crazy lady. You crazy lady you Ness. Suppose we'll keep you though. :D)
Kell, that's FLOPPING ridiculous about that playcentre's food policy! What if your child had a food intolerance/severe allergies or something? Surely she's not allowed to do that!! Hope you chase it up mate, keep us posted.
Meg, what Rach said, you should be able to see people's posts under your reply? Just keep scrolling down, and all will be revealed...:p
And what a pain about this morning. Does your dh get a sleep-in often? Sure hope he thanks you for it!
Laurin, have a brilliant reunion with your dh! How long has it been since you've seen him? Are you mostly unpacked now, or has all the illness set you back?
Now, what else was I going to say...how are our lurkers?? Pop in, pop in! Update us!
Anna, how are you and Xander? Have you had much of a chance to terrorise your neighbourhood on your bike recently? Or decorate a cake?
Annat, how's Ripley going? How are you adjusting to two?
Annie, how's the work/life balance going for you? Happier now?
Uh oh...I'll stop there, cos I'm going to end up just forgetting one person, and that won't be cool. So, everyone else, I'm thinking of you, get your motherly butts in and update!
We had our first playgroup today, Mum took Riv last week when I was sick, but we went this week. Pretty cool, he's VERY into anything that spins, and there were enough spinny-type toys to keep him amused. Pretty tiring though, he's down for a nap, and I'm resting on the bed.
I should pack my labour bag today hey...:p
Nelle- i am a crazy lady, i just think its one of those days for me. im hot bothered and grumpy.
Jodi- Its understandable we all go MIA!!! i have been thinking you just been enjoying all that swimming you do. I mean mylittle pool is ok but i want a real pool like yours!!!! Hope the dr can help heath.
so so hot!!! and humid yuck.
You got air con Ness? Or a local indoor pool? What icy poles have you been eating? Have you tried the Bee Movie ones? I think they're called Bees (surprise!). They're coke and pineapple flavoured.
Oh, and try freezing some yoghurt in small containers...mmm...
nelle.......i am that old lady that lives in that shoe!!
i got air con nelle, and super dooper icey poles. I go through like 24 in 3 days eeekkkkk. i think i may turn into a icey pole
its the humidty!!!!!!
Chrissy- Lol, now I have that story running thru my head.
Nelle- So how'd you get along with the other mums at this group? They seem like a nice bunch?
Jodi- Oh poor Heath, i forget the exact prob he had, was it something with fluid building up in there? Hopefully these medications do something, must really get you both down at times having a health issue that just won't sort out.
Have you finished at your job now?
Meg- oh your Dh needed to be booted out of bed! he should be doing the morning duties if you're going off to work, I hope he has a cooked dinner for you when you get home!
Oh and thats great your SIL is paying for your accomadation, makes sorting out your trip much easier now.
marni- Oh what a lovely way to wake up! Lucky for me Ash is down the hall in her cot so she has to wait for me to wake up properly before I go get her.
Laurin- Only 4 hours to go!!!
I have mums group at my place today so all tidied up. Forgot to buy something nice to drink so it'll just be plain old water or tea/ coffee. I do have some chocky bikkies though. Bring on the cool change too. I can feel my headache returning, got so bad last night was bordering on migraine.
God I just realised I haven't even eaten yet today! Just had a milkshake while out. better go nourishe myself.
Hehe Chrissy, you got any room for Jodi and her fam in there? :p
Nah you won't Ness, with Riv, Shell was convinced my amniotic fluid was just all melted Frosty Fruits, but it was all fine. :D
Shell! You nuffer! I hope you're eating a good meal right now! (Says Nelle who had an Up & Go for brekky, and a few jubes)
Hey beautiful ladies -
I am so excited about seeing DH again, more for Rylee seeing her Daddy again, it has been 6 weeks, last time he hadn't seen her for a month he just held her for about half an hour and wouldn't let go and stared at her, I could have been in Mars...
Anyway, I digress, I agree Shell bring on the cool change, ovah this weather completely, if our pool was in a fit state we could be in there but it is a nice shade of green, have to get DH onto it.
Nelle - good on you for taking Riv to a playgroup I am trying to get into one at the moment, looking forward to meeting other mums.
Jodi - I really hope Heath's problem can be resolved and sorry you havn't been in a good place emotionally, it is difficult isn't and you have all those pg hormones buzzing about too.
Anyway, going to go and lay down while R is asleep, I am tired and still have this stupid headache soooooooo a bit of a sad sack.
BBL
Laurin
Yay im home finally.. oh being pregnant really takes going to the shops out of you :lol:
Rach.. i do have to say before i left this morning i did see your post regarding you having taken so much time to fall pregnant and others, such as myself, had no problems. To me it kinda made me feel that you may think someone like myself doesnt warrant being pregnant as much as those who have had to go through such troubles. Perhaps you didnt mean it that way, thats just how i interpreted it. I am sorry you are having problems. I think everyone here wishes you werent, but thats just how what i read made me feel. I didnt have time before i left to post that so i am now. Secondly, i saw the quote in Nessa's post regarding certain people not wanting a boy or a girl. I think it is more that some would "like" to have a boy or a girl, me being one i would really like a daughter, but that doesnt mean i do not want a son just as much. I dont think anyone here does not appreciate or wish away the gift they have been given because they maybe going through a rough pregnancy, or are having the opposite sex than what they maybe have liked etc. As you most probably know being pregnant is not an easy thing to do and I think alot of us come here in here for little support and being we have known each other for so long, i think most would like to think they can count each other. I do have to agree with Nelle on this last one too, i dont understand what age has to do with anything? I just wanted to put across how what i read made me feel.
I havent been visiting her much, well, i have been visiting and catching up but i honestly dont have much to say atm.. and lol, half the time dont have the energy to type hehe.
Meg.. i think i might do that. By the looks of it, it looks like a going thing that you cant bring food for kids to these places. We're definately not going back to that place after the way i was spoken to, but once we find somewhere else will say the same i think. Hope your day flies!
Jodi.. oh gee i hope this medication can help Heath. Must be so uncomortable for him.
Nelle.. i know, i just cant get over even that my girlfriend was not allowed to feed her baby cooked puree food from home. Like a BABY. I think they really need to get their priorities right at that place. Ohhh one of the mum's in our mum's group was thining of turning it into a playgroup. Sounds like he had lots of fun!
Shell.. ohh im coming over for tea and bikkies!
Oh the weather is yucky here too. Just crazy. In the mornings im trying to work out to rug up and wear pants and jumpers and then come 11am its stinking hot! I too perfer the cooler weather and being able to rug up and get all snug :)
Really starting to feel pregnant now. Havent felt much movement as yet. I think i feel very faint touches here and there but no real kicks like i had with Jesse. His first was at 16 week 4 days.. but then he has always been a super strong man. Friday week i have my next scan and hopefully they can tell me if we're having a "C" or a "K" :)
I wasn't going to po sthere any more but I have to say my post this mornign was about my mums group friends here in moura was nothing about your girls on here as for the boy/girl issue I was not saying anything about anyone it was more people who find out they are having a boy/girl getting distressed because it isn't what they want look at my god damn sig I think pink doesn't mean if I have a boy I will be disappointed:
well except for the fact I am jealous as all hell as all my mums group girls are UTD bar one, and she is her words to selfish too have another one yet either that or she isn't telling anyone she is I have 1 who is due june another 10 weeks pg another 6 weeks pg the ones who are 10 and 6 weeks both had m/c last year
Rach- tell me thinking pink, ok fair enough now. What would you call the feeling you will have if thinking pink doesnt work for you??? is that not disappointment????
Oh and god dam?? a little inappropirate.
And how are you pg friend in real life any dif form the pg people online???
what the hell is it pick on rach day for having a friggin me moment
ok I apologise for everything I have ever said obviously I offend people with what I say or do, nothing I say or do will change this so lets forget it
why can't I comment I feel jelous etc, is that a crime............I am truly happy for every single one of you who are pg, I wish you all the best
now I am sure I am goign to be shot down for having a opinion but to be honest I just dont give a damn anymore
Cut it out guys. You don't want 3 firm smacks from me, cos I'm eating hot cross bun with too much butter, and I'll leave greasy handprints on your bums.
Anyone else in love with hot cross buns? A bit bemused at the easter eggs that have been in the stores since January, but I got no probs with the hot cross buns!
Mmm...one a penny, two a penny...
(hehe, is this the day for nursery rhymes for me, do you think? :p)
me me me me me me me me me me me me me me
I havent been on for a while im sorry but ive been flat out.
I really cant be farked commenting on the $hit in here atm! Im to tired and really....who gives a toss! ness didnt direct anything at any one imparticular!
Life is far to short to get upset about this - I dont come in here much anymore cause I have to many of my own drama's to contend with.
hope YOUR ARE ALL WELL!!!!!!
Oh dear Rach i think that was WAY out of line.
Nelle.. oh i want one!!!!!!!!! Hehe i want whatever everyone else is eating!!
Maz.. big :hugs: hun, you know you have so much respect from me hun, you dont need to hear that crap as its just utter BS.
Hmm.. i just made a tuna sandwich.. where did it go?? Did i really eat it that fast? Bugger.. i want another now..
Sorry but i think people leave because they cant be bothered with the crap that goes on here. For frigs sake everyone is allowed a "me" day and sometimes people dont agree with others but we dont need a ***** fest and gang up fess everytime it happens.
I think that rach you are doing marvellously well considering that one you are having difficulties( i can remember some people complaining when it didnt happen in like a couple of months) and you lost a baby previously and have had heart ache.
Other people on here are also hurting and suffering depression.We too support you and i think sometimes you need to sethat what you write can hurt others and two it can be something little that can be blown out because of a down day.
I just think we need to take a breather before things are written. if i have offended too bad,everyone will get over it,i like u all but its how i feel.
Maz i think you have had every right to feel the way you do.You have had it tough mate.
But my beleif is people have left because of the *****yness.
Ladies, can we please keep on track with the conversation? :whip:
LOL...
Lets keep it nice, and if you have issues with someone please chat with them offline so we don't ruin everyone else's experience here... *mwa*
No more ladies ;) Moving on............. so kiss and make up or agree to disagree (or whatever!) or we could always ban you from the thread for 24 hours so you have a forced cool down time :cryinglaugh:
Kelly I apoligise for letting comment sget to me, no need to ban me from thread for 24 hrs becuase I am putting a self imposed ban on myself, I thought I had made friends here but in reality I haven't
I will miss the couple who have been supportive of me, hopefully you know who you are please PM me for my email details
All I have to say is - exactly why I am not posting as regularly as I used to - I dont have time or energy for mud slinging BUT I can make time for mud wrestling :cryinglaugh: Ive had my fair share of crud re fertility/pregnancy and I wouldnt wish it on anyone. And I apologise if Im me me me, comes with the territory of having 2 under 2 and being tired/slightly crazy/busy.
Oh and Nelle, you are crazy :p But its what we love about you. You never fail to make me laugh with your posts. I must be the only person who DOESNT like hot cross buns. Easter eggs I can do (and have been trying to avoid whilst shopping, Im really trying to stick to my Weight Watchers but I dont think Coles/Woolies etc want me to :doh: )
Maz, nice to see you pop in! Any new piccies of Mat in your gallery? I just love seeing his adorable face. Can you believe they are already nearly 2mths old :D
Ripley is doing great. He's a bit more settled now which is giving me *some* sanity back. I must confess I have given him a bottle of formula before bed the last two nights and boy has it made a difference - I actually got 4hrs of sleep in a row and he's much more content during the day. He is still first and foremost a booby boy though, I wrestled with my guilt since I did it but decided I have to do whats needed to get me through the next few months. Eventually I'll cut it out if I need too. He's much more alert and smiley, we've taken to calling him DZ (Derek Zoolander) because he gives us 'Blue Steel' looks all the time..............oh and he is really really ridiculously good looking :lol:
Jett is a nutcase. I seriously dont know where my placid kid has gone - he bounces between being crazy funny or being devil spawn. He really cracks me up (even when he's auditioning for Jacka$$ or telling me NO GO AWAY while throwing toys!) Proud Mama moment - he can count to 5! I dont know how he learnt it (maybe counting at swimming?) but whenever someone says 'one...' he comes back with 2,3,4,5! We do have an unwanted house guest though.............Elmo *sigh* He's a kid obssessed, everything is "melmo", he carries his Elmo everywhere, picked out Elmo jammies, watches the DVDs 20,000x a day. Red is my new least favourite colour hehehehe
I cant believe the kids are all on the downward slide to 2 - time certainly has flown by! Anyone thinking about birthday parties yet????
ok back now. Nina is being such a little turd today. I think it's because her morning was so out of whack today. Thanks alot to Heath!
nelle - mmmmm yum, I love hot cross buns. Mum bought some choc chip ones over the other day, and I ate most of them.
kel - I can't believe you're almost 18 weeks now, where on earth has the time gone!! How are the headaches?
Thanks for your thoughts re: Heath. Yeah, he is in pain with it all. Lets just hope the medication sorts it all out for him.
nessa - hot and humid down there hey, you should spend a day in Cairns. That'll show you what hot and humid is, lol! And yeah, I do spend pretty much all my free time in the pool. Nice big pool it is too :p
Laurin - 6 weeks, that's a long time. He must be missing you both so much, and vice versa.
I'm another who is hot, and cranky today. I've got the a/c on, but I've had to strip down to my underwear to get that little bit cooler. Very attractive, not!
ETA: annat, Nina can count to 3, it is so cute. I think she learnt it from swimming too. And her favourite thing ATM is her dolly. Dolly goes everywhere Nina goes. It's very cute!
As for parties, Heath and I were talking about that the other day. I have some ideas on what I want. Definitely face painting.
ETA #2: I forgot to say that I'm going for another ultrasound tomorrow. I'm not convinced that it's a girl, so I want to double check it is before I set up her room.
Oh I forgot to add - Dh got asked for his posting preferences last week so now we get to put them in and hopefully find out where we're moving to in May :dance: So only a few more weeks til I know if Im stalking Kell or Jodi :cryinglaugh: ;)
I've been meaning to ask about that anna. Where is his preference, is it Sydney?
We get 5 choices I think - ranked in order of most wanted and least wanted choices. I think we'll be applying for -
#1 (most wanted) - Sydney
- Adelaide
- Brisbane
- Townsville
#5 (least wanted) -Darwin
I reckon we have a very good chance of getting Sydney regardless of choice but word is theyve got all of the guys on his course going to either Sydney, Townsville or Darwin. I refuse to go to Darwin ever so if he gets it he'll have to go on his own and do a fly in-fly out visiting arrangement to us in Sydney. Im happy with anywhere but Darwin.
ggod luck with your scan tomorrow jodi
and kell sending pick vibes for your scan next week.....and belle when is yours???
i had my scan yesterday, and we have changed my hospital now, as they couldnt see the heart chambers properly, so i have decided to birth at John hunter ( the biuggest in newcastle)as Liam has to be checked right out after birth by specialists
:clap: maz....did you like those videos i send you :)
chrissy - I love the name Liam. That's good news that you could change hospitals to a bigger, better one. Do they think Liam will need to be in special care once born, or will he just be getting checked out?
anna - I wouldn't want to go to Darwin either! Or Townsville for that matter. I hate Townsville. It's so hot and dry there. It's hot here, but it's a different heat here than Townsville.
JODI..he just needs to be checked out at this stage, and we take it from there, but we dicided to change hospitals as the heart specialst yeterday adviced us too, and i would much rather be at that hospital, and not have to change if something is not quite right, IYKWIM...and its the same distance as the other hosp i was booked into.
Chrissy- glad you were able to change hospitals, its always better to be safe then sorry. hope nothing is wrong with Liam though.
Jodi- thats not very nice, teasing me about your pool. good luck with your scan tomorrow.
AnnaT- so even though adelaide is second choice its really not a option???
Hmm i will be confirming my sex on friday.
well bubs is playing soccer in there so i need to lay down.
Anna T - I had to laugh when I read what you posted about Elmo. It is all that I hear too. Tiana runs around saying el-mo, el-mo and chases me with a DVD until I put it on for her. I used to like elmo but lets just say that it isn't quite so amusing to watch anymore. Do you have the dress me elmo doll? Miss loves that one!
Maz - Just wanted to say that I think your childrens names are beautiful!
Nelle - I love hot cross buns too, as long as there is so much butter on them that you cant actually see the bun... At least why I continue to put on weight isnt really a mystery.
Chrissy - I'm sure that your bubba will be just perfect but changing hosp. as a precaution can do nothing but make you less stressed about the birth and your baby.
Jodi - LOL at checking she is still a girl! I remember asking the ultrasound tech if Tiana still had girly bits at our 29 and 30 and 33 week scan. I was only slightly paranoid that she had grew bits. Only cos when I was told she was a she I went a little crazy with pink bubba clothes!
I had an interesting morning. My gorgeous daughter and Riley a little girl I look after Tues and Wed were in Tiana's room supposedly going to sleep. I went to check on them when they had been quiet for 5 mins and they had somehow gotten sudocream from the top of the bookshelf (still no idea how?) and painted themselves, the carpet, Tiana's bed, books all of the shoes, stuffed toys and anything else within a one metre radius. They were both white from head to toe! You could clearly see handprints on them where they had taken it in turns to paint eache others backs!! Anyone know how to remove sudocream from carpet??!! I had to laugh if only to stop myself from crying.
Good luck for Friday ness! Hopefully bubs behaves.
Marni - that's so cute what the girls did! I have no idea how to get it out of the carpets though.
Ooops - what a day to pop in here :(
Ah, I've got a shocking headache atm, and Ambah's been feeding constantly for about 4 days now, my supply seems to be disappearing - not sure why? Anyway, have barely slept for 4 nights now, so I'm buggered. Not helping my patience levels, thank god the girls have been pretty good (pupil-free day today).
Ummm, not sure what to say to everyone, big :grouphug: to everyone. I'm thinking of you all - would do personals but my head is killing me. Belly rubs for all those gorgeous preggie bellies, hope those gorgeous newborns are doing well Maz, AnnaT and Ambz, and big hugs and kisses for everyone and all the toddlers as well.
:lol: We haven't had a sing-a-long for ages....hmmm.... I've got one that's been stuck in my head for days (:rolleyes:) Toot toot chugga chugga big red car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hehehehehehehehehe, don't worry 'bout me - I think I've been taking crazy pills instead of panadol!!!!!!
ETA - Marni - I'll get back to you about the sudocream - Ambah just did the same thing on the side of our couch and the rug while I was in the shower a little while ago LOL
Marni- please tell me you took a pic!!!!!
um and good luck getting it out, its oil based so it will e hard
hhmmm .... thanks for getting that stuck in my head shars!!
I hope Ambah isn't coming down with something, and that your supply boosts up soon.
Hehehehehe, you're welcome :P
Jodi.. Good luck with your scan tomorrow! Will be nice to see bubs again!! Oh i know i cant believe how fast all of our pregnancies are going and well babies are growing up! Its just bizarre! My pregnancy with Jesse seemed to take forever! Havent had one migraine in weeks. Well since i was 7 weeks which is great. Have had the odd headache here and there though but thats nothing compaired to the migraines at least.
Jesse cant count well... he likes to pretend to count his dinner (like sausages or nuggets) and his counting is " derrr.. der.. derrr.. derrr... derrrr" hehe so cute.
AnnaT.. hope you finally get what you want, to come home to sydney!
Chrissy.. oh thats a great name! Will go very well with your other kiddies. I hope John Hunter can offer you and Liam better care.
Nessa.. would love for you to find out youre actually having a boy and what you thought was a bun was just his 2 veg :)
Marni.. oh dear!! I do hope you took photos too!!
