Babies born September 2007 #30

[Patooties]

Marydean - you beat me too - onto your second box!!!!!!!! My poooor pooooor dh. lol.

Gracie - I wouldn't change a thing. I don't recall it being a difficult time having them so close together. My first thought when i found out i was pregnant was " how will i be able to love another child as much as Jess?" but there's plenty of love for everyone
They are so close, and have a great time together.

For all you S&TC fans, 7.30 tonight (dont know what channel) the girls are on Oprah! Pls Maddie be asleep by 7.30 hahaha yeah right mum.

Took Maddie for her 2nd flu shot today and it went very well.

LMAO Sherie my eyes popped out at the 20 ejaculations as well!!! I can count on one hand the amount of times we have dtd since Maddie was born lol.

Renee - Nope I've never seen those aldi nappies in Perth. Slow, sleepy Perth, that'd be right hey!? What are the teething tablets that you are giving to Rory called? I need help lol, I've today spotted a new cut in the gum so no doubt our sleepless nights will be going on for a bit longer.

Leanne - Sorry to hear about Jordy. He must be so backed up, poor kid. I'm sure the doctors and nurses will look after him well, hospital is such a scary word. I'd be so sad as well. I hope you are feeling better about it.

Jazmum - Dont worry your DH isnt the only one lacking the loving I've often thought how on earth would I love another baby as much as Maddie.

Arte - I am the same with coping with the wakeups, if I go to bed early I am fine, but anything past 10 doesnt work for me. Wow at Will standing, so cute. Aww he isnt a bully he just knows what he wants. Those library sessions sound great.

Pregpan - Love the book idea, you should go for it. I am fine with Maddie being at sitting as well, I just hate it when other people say omg she isnt crawling yet, how old is she!? That makes me nervous lol. I guess we should be happy that we dont have to baby proof yet.

Gracie - I've often heard of people who put so much effort into trying to fall pregnant having trouble, due to the pressue they are putting on themselves. Whereas sometimes people who arent thinking about it, end up with a little suprise. I'm going on the pill now, but these days i'm of the mindset of if it happens again then it happens, I am happy to even have one child of my own.

Sherie - I know what you mean about childbirth, I really could do it all again to get Maddie. So worth it. But the pain for me was terrible, I feel nervous thinking about it now. I think next time around I will start to get pretty anxious close to my due date, because the first time around I really had no clue what I was in for LOL.

Oh bum must go ladies, sorry for the lack of personals, but Maddie has woken! I'll try get back on tonight for more.

[Leemar]

Hey Girls,

Well I dont really know too much about the procedure all I know so far is they are putting a tube though his nose down to his belly and putting in fluid like the movicol but a bit stronger. We are now booked to go on the 5th June. One of us can stay with him over night he will be in for a few days so far. The Movicol was working but began to get harder and harder to give it to him. He hates the stuff. He is really blocked up so the Dr wants to clean him out and start from sratch and train his bowel to empty normally. I still feel terrible but Its the best thing for him.

Ok so it will soon be 1 month till my boys turn 3 and I have started to prepair for a party. I have sent out invitations and now have a food list. This year its going to be a Cars Theme. with lighting McQueen Cake and decorations. OMG they are turning 3. Time is going way too fast.

Hayley- I am glad the flu shot for Maddie went well.
MD- Xavier what a wonderful name.
Jazmum- We are on to our 2nd Box too. Although the first box had 12 in and the second box I bought had 24 in and DH took a look at it and said well are you planning on some action. lol...
Art- How have you been feeling. I hope you have had some sleep.
Renee- Have fun at your mothers group tomorrow.

Sorry any one I have miss but I am still trying to get though all the post.

Hello to all and Sweet Dreams

[Ginger]

hayley- i'm watching oprah right now
lewis isn't crawling yet either and i do get a little miffed at mothers group when we chuck all the babies on the ground and lewis is the only one that doesn't MOVE!!! he just sits there waiting for some other crawling baby to come past and drop a toy for him to grab lmao!!

jaz- i've had the exact same thought. i don't know how i could ever love anyone the way i love lewis. it's overwhelming. i mean, i love dp, but it's different you know? i'm glad to hear you love #2 just as much. that makes me want a bfp right now!!!

arte- i don't know how i'm coping with the wake ups. i guess i just don't get as stressed about it as i used to when i was working. it doesn't affect me in the same way when i'm not working iykwim? i seem to have changed and adjusted a lot too though. i don't know what i'd do if i wasn't co-sleeping too. atm dp is sleeping in the spare room and lewis and i are in the main bed together, as dp is doing 10 hour days.

[Isadora]

Gracie - My DP often moves to the bed in the spare room as well on those horrible nights with Maddie. He does long hrs at work too so I dont mind at all. However I do expect him to pull his weight if need be on Sun & Mon nights as I work the next day!

Leemar - How has he managed to get himself so backed up? Do they just forget to go at that age or what happens? Must be so painful!

[Ozstar]

Hey lovely ladies,

your all so chatty, I have been jumping on through out the day to read but haven't had time to post.

Logan's tooth is popping through, I can feel it and think he sick of me trying to get a look in his mouth lol. He had a little bite while I was feeding him today, I took him off and said a firm no he just looked me with a big goofy smile.

I seem to have a very lucky DH, we DTD at least once a week. Probably more info then you needed lol.

Gracie I had to have a giggle at Lewis waiting for toys to be dropped off to him, I think he is very clever...why move if he doesnt have to lol.

Leanne your party sounds great. You can get tones of Cars stuff for parties too.

Hayley glad Maddies flu shots went well.

MD $350 thats a big phone bill, bloody men!

Jazmum there is nothing better then the smiles you get when they wake up is there. Logan is always standing in his cot when I go to get him and gives me the biggest smiles when he sees me.

Renee Logan loves the Hyland teething relief too, he opens his mouth when he sees the bottle. Have you tried one? I did the other day to see why he liked it so much, they sort of fizz up then melt. What does your dress look like?

Arte I love that pic of Will painting, he is soooo cute. The bubs are at such a great age for visitors now aren't they, have fun with the inlaws.

A big hello to everyone else.

I got my new Ergo today and am in love with it. I went to the shops to test it out and it was so much easier then getting out the pram just to quickly run in and grab something.

[Leemar]

Katie- Congratulations to Logan on his tooth
Hayley- Apparently its really common for toddlers to get constipation. I dont really know how it happened. I feel really slack. May be he as always had bowel problems because he was so premmie. Oh I really hope this works.

I am off to bed good night to all and sleeping vibes to all babies.

[Isadora]

Katie - How has Logan been going with his teething? Not in too much pain I hope.

Does anyone know if you can put nurofen into a bottle? I cant get Maddie to take the 4mls of nurofen, she hardly lets me put anything near her mouth apart from a bottle of milk. I put panadol in a bottle and that seems to work?

[AnyDream]

Katie, Yay for getting an ergo!! I said to DH - our mission over the next fortnight is to learn to use it in the back position. I'm quite excited about it but I need a "spotter" the first few times LOL!

Hey did anyone see my post in the baby names thread? The more I think about it the freakier it is! It's even spelt Elisabeth with an S. I'm going to try to find some really old albums.

Gracie, BTW I meant to say thanks for the warning re 21. There were a heap of really good movies a couple of weeks ago but they've all dried up cos Indiana jones is playing so many times a day. I think it's hilarious that Lewis waits for the other babies to come past! E will find a little friend and then they both sit there taking toys from each other (and neither one minds).

Arte, Re the V - I didn't know they had to do retests?? Will ask DH if the dr said anything. I read about the spontaneous rejoining thing 10 years later too but I figure if that little baby wants to come through that badly well then so be it. LOL It sounds like you were very lucky in the boob department. My girls are both Leaky Lucys.

Jazmum, please tell me your box has more than 10 in it???

Leanne - PMSL at your DH's comment when he saw the 2nd box. Well the menfolk can live in hope anyway! RU going to make the Lightening McQueen cake? that's very adventurous. My way of doing themed cakes is to buy a 3D figurine and plonk it on top of the cake (with matching icing of course).

ETA - Hayley, 4 mls is too much, isn't it? The infant nurofen (infant drops) we have is a dosage of only 2mls! Have you got the infant drops or the other one??

[Ginger]

katie- what colour ergo did you get? i LOVE my ergo

re- lewis lying there waiting for toys to drop- the funniest is at swimming when they have a big floating matt and they put the babies up on it on their tummy and they have to crawl to the other end, well lewis just lies there flapping his arm like a big wet dead fish. it is hilarious cos he is the biggest baby in the class but he can't move!

md- i've googled lewis' name and there is one kid in nsw surf riding club and that's it.

[Patooties]

md - we don't use condoms - i'm on the mini pill. I think i need to get my mojo back!!!

I think my dog Chloe, who is 13 years old, is going to die soon. She is a border Collie and i've had her since was a tiny puppy. I tried playing with her today and she didn't have the energy to chase the ball. Tonight she didn't even touch her dinner. I'm feeling really guilty too, because before we had our girls, she was my baby. I would sit outside and cuddle her and fuss over her. Now i barely have time to pat her. I feel like a horrible mummy.
Dh is away again tonight and tomorrow, so i hope she doesn't pass away while i'm on my own with the girls.

sorry for the downer.
