OK Clare, you saaaay that you aren't planning another bundle but then you hang out on FF and the Ob threads??? Should we be awaiting an announcement? Luteal phase it the time between ovulation and AF. It is usually about 12-16 days and needs to be at least 10 days. Mine is currently 5-7 days which doesn't give any potential bubs time to implant. Hope the bully guy leaves you alone.
MD, big bummer that DH is away again! Sorry you had another gall attack (sounds like a netball position lol). Lucky you found out what was causing it, I would be terrified if I had an episode like that without knowing the reason.
Trill, don't ya just love the days when you are looking at the clock wondering if they will go to bed at 4.30pm lol. That is so cute that A is making himself dizzy.
Ozstar, wish I still lived close so I could come and get some photos done. L sounds like a clever little boy.
Cally, glad K was good while you were away. Kisses are adorable. I was looking at your pics on FB, K is one cute kid!
Hayley, are you kidding me? Does you DF really not do any of the day to day care? Does he look after her if you want to do something? You are a far more generous person than me, I would have cracked it a long long time ago if DH didn't pull his weight. I hope he continues to do the little things, it will make a huge difference to their relationship.
Clare- got her on the kids inner health plus. The packaging has been changed and it says on the bottle that you can give it from 3 months. It used to be 2 years. So that's good.
Arte- we'll have a corn off, i planted mine last week!
Ange, we've tried growing corn a few times and it just never works for some reason. We don't eat a lot of it anyway, so it's not a drama though.
Arte, how long did it take you to fall pg with Will or was your LP not an issue then? Would be so cool if you did get a 09-09-09 baby. That would mean you would have to get pg mid december though - so fingers crossed...
Arte - Lol no I am not kidding about my DP, however I tend to let him off a little as he does work long hours and comes home tired. Dont worry I've had my days where I've cracked it at him big time and he gets the hint. I also told him to forget more babies until he starts helping out more. lol good luck with the corn! We also did corn last year and it didnt work out for us either, but I dont have much of a green thumb hehe.
Clare - Oh I dont like bullies, glad you are getting rid of him you poor thing & well done to standing up for yourself. Yes I agree when they come running towards you after a day in daycare it just makes your heart melt.
Trillian - Hmm you've got my mind ticking again about vaccinations. The info all seems very hazy iykwim, it seems like people just go with what the govt tells us to do, I'm one of them. As for the same size dosage, that makes sense to me, M has barely ever had a reaction to any vaccinations (touch wood) & she is a chubba bubba, whereas for example my girlfriends little girl who is the same age, but a tiny little girl, always is affected by them.
Falguni - Oh wow thanks for mentioning inner health plus, I never knew they had changed the age bracket thats awesome.
Oz - You have the coolest job ever. I'd be another one in line for pics by you if you lived close by. What a smart cookie labelling body parts.
Kate - What a friend!
MD - Hope the time away from your DH goes fast. I hope you can get your gallstones sorted soon?
Cally - I am envious of your hands on hubby
Just went to the shops with a girlfriend, she was absolutely amazed at the tanties that M was chucking. She kept saying 'omg Hayley where has my little sweetheart gone' LOL. She bought M a ball as well, so cute, she dotes on her.
He's only away 2 nights (QLD oops it never even occured to me to wonder if he'd get caught in a storm ). Had an attack last night but it wasn't as bad as the previous night so thankfully it's not going to be that painful all the time. Which is sort of reassuring if it's going to happen frequently, esp if I have to wait awhile to get the op done. I'm still not convinced that it's possible to eat a 100% fat free diet (like my Dr seems to think) so it's something I'm going to have to live with for a bit. Now ENOUGH of me talking about my granny health problems!!
Funny E and H both forgot DH wasn't here this morning, it's kind of like the new normal, more surprising when he is home LOL.
We had a lovely morning having a coffee with our very own Cally today! K couldn't make it tho cos she was having a playdate with Grandma. It was absolutely lovely to see you again Cally. I kind of feel sad that there will be no more catch ups, as infrequent as they have been. xxx
Clare "Weeride" great idea! I think that's what DH wants to get for his bike and he also wants to get a bike for me but I'm not riding anything except a proper old fashioned lady bike haha. Always feel like I'm going to fall off the other sort. Sorry you're feeling so sensitised by your work problems, sounds like you'll get the last laugh. I had to upward-manage a hopeless supervisor for over a year, didn't realise how stressed it had made me until he finally went to a different work unit (where he is much better suited) and finally all that stress fell off my shoulders. Where did you work in Canb?
Trill *SNAP* on the dizzy spinning!! H taught E to do it about a week ago and she does it all the time now. Fun when she's not crashing into furniture! I hope A is a bit happier and more cooperative for you today.
Arte - haha Gall attack = netball position. I'll have something funny to laugh about next time it comes on. What sort of corn are you putting in? I've tried growing it a few times but I've never really had enough space in my small veggie patch to get it growing really well. What else have you got in your garden?
Ok so it looks like a few of us need to know your corn secrets - Ange and Arte - spill!!!
OK well after promising myself for the umpteenth year in a row I wasn't going to buy any more Chrissy decorations, I've gone and done it again. To be fair, we don't have a wreath for the door (the one I made when I was 22 has finally died), and there was this gorgeous sparkly number, it's completely covered in huge 10 cent sized coloured sequins and beads. Very wooweewoo. Now I've just gotta wait until 1 Dec to put it up for a whole 2 weeks before I've got to take it down again LOL. Is anyone else excited that it's Nearly December??!
Trill, no probs getting preg with W (was actually trying to avoid lol), the LP issues I think are because of the breastfeeding. He still feeds 3-6 times during the day, more if he is having a clingy day, and then another 3-6 times at night. My neice was nearly a 05-05-05 bub but she stayed in a few extra days, I love the cool birthdays like that.
Ange, challenge accepted! How many did you plant? I suspect we might have enough corn to feed a small army.
MD, we have so far planted cabbage, lettuce, radishes, potatoes, sugarsnap peas, peas, capsicum, pumpkin, courgette and the corn. I have never been very successful with corn. My first attempt as a kid got ruined by someones dog and the second attempt got eaten by cows. Hopefully this time we actually get to eat some. My secret to growing corn is to plant some popcorn in some damp potting mix then leave it in the hot water cupboard to sprout. Then I shifted them outside for a few days to green up and now have planted them in the garden. I am sort of excited about december this year, we have decided to organise a christmas party for my family just before christmas and have talked the IL's into going to FILs mothers for christmas with the rest of the extended family (there is some sort of history there but I don't care- I want a big christmas!!!)
MM, those must be some mega tanties! I forgot to say I saw the vid of M dancing on FB, how frickin' cute is that! I couldn't believe it, she has a whole heap of groove on.
I got a massive bargain today. I was at bunnings and saw a cute little kids plastic picnic table. I asked how much it was and because it was the last one they marked it down from $50 to $35. On the way out the door I noticed that one of the clips to attach the seat on one side was broken so I took it back in for a refund. Then I overheard them saying it would go in the bin so I offered $10 to their social club and bought it again. It is completely usable, just if you pick it up by the seat one bit pops out, nothing a bit of superglue won't fix. So I was quite happy with that and W loves it.
we're back from holiday, was fun but lewis got sick and woke up at 5am and spewed all over me. he was sick again this morning at 3am and he's feeling pretty miserable....
the good news is though, when we were away he started WALKING!!! yah!
he's so happy with himself. df is upset that he didnt get to see his first steps, but was nearly crying when we got home and lewis walked to him. awww so cute..
hope everyone is well
bbl to catch up with you all xoxo
