yes, dh has promised not to drink at all and to be available on the mobile at all times. it would probably take him 4 hours from my phonecall to the hospital.

I posted before but it seems to be gone??
Rainy is it this weekend? Has he gone already? Its good that he is able to go and not drink.
I shaved Logans head. Still long as I did it on a number 4. He gets so sweaty so hopefully it is a little cooler for him, plus I have been saying I would do it for ages.
katie- no he's not going till the weekend of the 7th feb, i'll be 37.5weeks by then.
how did you get logan to sit still so you could shave it???
He had just watched DH shaved his head so he sat still and giggled at the sound. I dont know what I would have done if I only got half way through.
lmao! yeah, that's what i was thinking!
i don't think lewis would let me do it. does he look all grown up now?
Yeah he looks grown up when it goes flat, it sort of looks like an American buzz cut lol. I have some pics on FB.
Better post so we don't fall off the page!!
Mum and I took K down to the little creek this morning. She had so much fun splashing around.
Oz - have fun camping
Rainy - glad you got some baby free time and are feeling better. Re DH's weekend away, is he able to keep the promise about not drinking (ie is it a bloke's weekend and they'll be bagging him for not drinking or are his mates mature enough to understand?) Do you have a doula?
MM - if it's still 6 weeks to the wedding, couldn't you get your eyebrows done now and then again just before? I do mine every 4 weeks with my legs when I go to the beautician.
Someone doesn't want to have a nap - better go.
Rainy do you have kids screaming "Hi Miss" from 500 meters away ever time you go there? It's hilarious stepping out with my stepmum who has been a teacher for decades, she runs into old students all the time! Glad you enjoyed being eyebrowed. One of these days I'll finally develop enough sophistication to walk into one of those beauty places for the first ever time LOL.
Cally yep I just spoon yoghurt of choice into Tupperware iceblock moulds. The go-gurt tubes are good too, I just chuck the whole box in the freezer. No mess. E bites the ice out but if it's been out of the freezer for a couple of mins it's pretty soft anyway.
MM - wow that's a fantastic bargain on the rings! Did you know it was going to be that cheap or was it a total happy surprise? Must've put a big smile on your face, that's for sure!
Katie, so NOT jealous of your camping trip. Feel like I've been camping in my half-unpacked house for weeks LOL. Only joking, sounds lovely.
Arte - sorry you've been feeling so crummy sick. :hug: Thanks for asking about my sis, she is loving life. She's off at a huge lezzie-fest (her words LOL) this weekend so I'll hear all about it for the next month or so.
Update - well had another attack last night (worst ever - I think ppl thought I might've been having a baby PMSL). Good thing it coincided with the day lovely Junior Dr Surgeon was there, he dragged HH Surgeon round to me this morning and now finally I'm on the urgent list. Will find out next week when I'm going in. :) Pretty bleh today though. Had to cancel social engagements tonight. :(
Cally:
how is the weekend with your folks going?
Hayley:
what a bargain on them rings!!!!
Katie:
Hope you got your camping gear sorted out. Hope you have fun!
When I shaved Alex's head last year, I had to hold him down like I was shearing a sheep <giggling>. glad your experience with Logan was more simplified.
MD:
am very sorry to hear about your gallbladder attacks however, I am happy to hear when it occured & now that something will be done. :hug: hope the w8 isn't long now.
US: ... no lessons today as my friend cldn't make it & I am coughing like a lawnmotor that won't kickover ... still went to the pool today!! ... tookthe boys to macca's then came home & Jack slept in this horrible heat ... then they were cranky so we went back to town & did some shopping! ... was over 40 here this afternoon :S
Jack is cracking me up l8ly. He's so cute & cuddly. Loves drumstick ice creams!!
Hi girls!
MD: big phat hugs comin' at ya! :hug::hug: that really sux that the thing is getting worse, but i guess now that you are on the urgent list you may get in and get the horrid wee things out. (i'm searching for that elusive silver lining LOL!)
Andie: oh wow, that is getting hot up there. have you got a cold? hope the coughing stops soon.
Oz: i'll have to check out the pics!
Arte: yeah i reckon these babies are going through such a great phase ATM. you can barely take a bad picture...so many smiles and so little time.
things here are slowly improving. i will feel better once i see this PND specialist and know where i stand and how to go forward. i have a feeling though that the TTC will be put back, which is something i will have to learn to resign myself to.
MM: IKWYM about the mark-ups. my BF at school her dad was a buyer for the big companies and the stories he would tell were shocking. but that's the business i guess. how exciting though! getting all ready!!
AFM: well my 'twilight' obsession will be coming to an end soon as i am halfway through the 4th book. totally devoed. what will i do now??!! LOL! at least i have hooked my BF onto them and now we giggle like two teenage girls over our infatuation with all things sexy vampire! LOL! oh we are sad!
Leila is doing great guns. she is just in the best phase. always smiling and really trying out the language stuff. we got our first sentence today....e' per te...(in italian) it means: it's for you! she was handing me some half chewed banana. i am sooo stoked.
Clare, OMG, that is soo cute & in another language!
I come down with sinus issues the other nite & I'm not sure why the cough, I think its part of it. It doesn't help that the weather is like 40 one min then 25ish the nxt! haha. Something is in the air, am sneezing like a trooper .. it is cool enough to put Jack in a wondersuit today! Go figure :s
MD, I loooooove you!!! After all this time I finally got around to trying rice milk and it worked! I gave W a bottle with ricemilk when he woke up last night and HE ACTUALLY TOOK IT!!!! He has never had a bottle in his life. I gave it to him at 11.30pm and he slept until 4am - that is 4.5 hours of sleep, the longest we have had in months! (Paid for it when he got up for the day at 5am, but anyhow...) I hope it works again tonight because I am so close to resorting to some sort of cry it out method and I really really don't want to but I can't go on waking every two hours. It is so consistant that I have no hope of him growing out of it, I think it is definitely up to me to do something about it.
I've been found....
Oh Arte I love you too! LOL :hug: Glad the rice milk worked! I suggest once you've got him drinking it enthusiastically every time, start adding a bit of cowjuice, then gradually put more and more in (over several weeks) until he's on real milk because there's not a lot of goodness in the ricemilk. Don't be hard on yourself if you do need to resort to stricter methods, you need to look after yourself too. :hug: With us it was a case of getting over the hump, we've all been happy and well rested and not needed to use the cry techniques after those first few weeks.
Clare when is your appt with the big gun specialista? She better be good! PMSL at your vampiric obsession, you'll just have to resort to old runs of Buffy and Angel to get you thru LMAO.
Andie - if you're not using it already, get some Fess Spray. It's nasal spray which is basically just salty water but it is a total godsend. I use it during spring/summer and it even stops me from snoring LMAO. *ssssh* That's our little secret.
Thanks MD, will give it ago. Just from a chemist?
Hi girls!
MD: you just saved my day!! i have the entire buffy box set in my cupboard all ready and waiting just for this moment!! you are a champ!! my friend in canberra had to beg at borders today to try and get on a waiting list for the last 2 books of the series and they wouldn't!! LOL! love it.
Andie: yeah you get it from a chemist, but just make sure that you get the adult version!!
Arte: yay for the rice milk!! we use that too when Leila is beside herself. she usually takes it more often than the cows milk. the only other thing that she prefers over the rest is goats milk. but at almost $5 a litre it is a 'special' treat LOL!
AFM: well we had a lovely day trip to healesville today. soaked up the glorious rays of sun and i had a scrumptious fig, honey, rocket, blue cheese and walnut salad...mmmm DH ditched the lunch and went straight to work on the dessert menu! Leila ran around like crazy with a pack of other toddlers.
Andi, yep, from the chemist, spend an extra couple of dollars and get the big bottle cos if you have sinus probs you will love it an use it all the time LOL. :D
Clare, oh your day out sounds luuuurvely, Mmmm salad, mmmmm CHEEEEEEESE!! BTW I'm totally jealous of your Buffy collection, I only came in on the last couple of seasons then saw the first and a bit season on old reruns but there's a huuuuuuge hole in the middle of my Buffy viewing. *sigh* You could watch the Underworld movies again, that's vamps v. werewolves LOL. Bit un-tamer than Buffy tho.
hi girls
happy australia day everyone :dance:
clare- was that meal at the healesville hotel? did you visit the jewellery shop while you were there? my ex is a healesville boy born and bred so i used to be a bit of a local around there. :lol:
arte-so glad the rice milk is working :clap:how did you go last night? you will get there hun, i promise, lewis only wakes 1-2 times a night now :lol:
md- yes i can't go anywhere around there without being spotted. the worst is when you just run into the supermarket to grab something quick and students want to introduce you to their cousin and aunty and little brother gggrrrr!! does my head in. my friends refuse to go there with me as they can't stand being followed around, you end up having to do parent-teacher interviews while in the line at the chemist!
you have to go to the beautician one day- you'll love it!
cally- i'm pretty sure dh will be abe to stick to his promise of not drinking cos they're actually going there to watch a ski-boat race, so they're not just sitting around doing nothing iykwim? they'll actually be out and about doing stuff and he's actually driving a competitor's trailer so he can't drink in the day.
i do have a doula as well, so at least i would have her there.
so what is everyone up to for their australia day?
Thanks Clare & MD .. will invest in some next time I go check the post box. Thank you.
Sounds like a lovely day out you had there Clare. Wish it was sunny here so that I can take the boys out somewhere. The weather is miserable & Jack is still in a wondersuit (now with snot pouring out his nose, noticed when he came to show me the biscuit he was munching on)
Rainy: what are you Aust. Day plans?
I have none, which didn't suprise me till I was sitting here dwelling on it. Don't even have anyone to visit. Just realised how lonely life is here (my neighbour / friend went out to her parents house in the heat wave the other day & hasn't come home). Plus Alex has been up since 5.30 & I've prob been up since with maybe a 10 min dozes & a 20 min one.
Off to get some dimetapp for Jack & see if I can actually do the dishes (water's in the sink & everything already! haha) ...ttfn
hey everyone! I haven't had time to catch up on all your news yet - DH has been doing a grant application so he's been on the computer for nearly 4 days, so I've not had a chance to get near it ROFL. So i'll be back later - I have a million and one things to do on here first to get caught up.
Just popping in to say hi, we are back from camping. Had a great weekend but now I am left with all the washing and cleaning out the tent etc. Will come back later to catch up, have loads to do and tones of photos to upload to facebook.
Happy Australia Day everyone!! We haven't done much, took DD to the pool and we are having lamb for dinner!!
Oz - saw the photos, was it a bit wet?
Clare - have been meaning to read the Twilight books. I assume they are pretty popular and I'm not going to have much chance of getting them at the library.
Rainy - that's why DH never does the shopping in the town where he teaches - goes 20 minutes up the highway so they don't all talk to him!
MD - bummer about the attack, yay for getting it seen to quickly!!
Happy Aus day all!! Woo hoo!!
Oz - Glad you had a good time camping, I noticed you put pics up on FB. I want to check them out but we have used all our download for the month & the net is soooooo slowwww. So I'll check them out in the next few days.
Cally - We are heading to the pools shortly, thats as far as our Aussie day celebrations are going!
Rainy - Ohhh no I didnt think about that, god they must drive you nuts. Maybe I dont want to be a teacher after all!
Arte - Thank god you've found a solution. Hope it keeps working for you.
Andie - If it helps, we are on our own today as well as our family are all away travelling & the only ones here, DP's parents, have decided I'm in the bad books lol.
Clare - Sounds like you guys had a great day yesterday, I love watching M run around with other kids.
Gotta keep it short, we are off to the pool now!
Hi Ladies
Just touching base here with you. Our Aust day has been pretty lame. Not even lamb or lamingtons. Honestly, didn't think about it this year at all. Will have to make up for it next year. Sarah and I did have a paddle in the pool, she bailed early so I lay down for a rest. Not so funny until you realise that its only one of those clam shell ones. Was hilarious tryig to get back out.
Anyway...hope you're all well. Better put S to bed, miss cranky pants has a runny nose and a cough so dosing up on panadol as well as going to try that Fess out before bedtime. She hates me picking her goobies so will be fun to see how she goes with this stuff.
Hugs to all
Thought i'd pop in and say hi too....
Mum and Dad came up yesterday and looked after L while hubby and i went out for lunch and had a lovely day. It was fantastic i must say. First time we've been out together without her since she was born. Stupid thing was i missed her and couldn't wait to see her when we got home.
Had a shocking night last night. L was restless and upset from 10pm until about 12.30. No idea what was wrong with her, she is fine today.......Then Dad woke me at 6am in excruciating pain wanting some pain relief. Mum took him to the hossy, turns out he had a kidney stone, but passed it, so all good now. He was trying to tell me it was worse than child birth. :rolleyes: Dad's eh? If he wanted to leave my house early he could have just said so! ;)
Hi girls!
Rainy: yeah we went the healesville hotel. pretty nice! i didnt get into the jewelry shop...for some reason DH picked up the pace around that time LOL!
Ange: bummer about the restless night. hopefully she will be ok tonight. LOL at your dad's birth comments! what a crack up. i hope your mum jabbed him in the ribs LOL!\\
Kate: we too partook of the mighty shellpool today!
Cally: yeah the books can be hard to come by. i have begged, borrowed and now spent a fortune buying them all...vamp trash is worth it though.
MD: oh you SHOULD be jealous of the buffy box set. it is LIMITED EDITION...oohh wahhhh...
love it. love the musical episode the best. you MUST get your hands on it. i dont mind the underworld stuff. it is a bit loose on the details, but it gets you by. i see there is a new one coming out...
Oz: i will try to check out the pics. from memory, last time i went i couldnt see any...
AFM: well our Aus Day was spent in true fashion. set up the barbie, invited the neighbours, got burnt, drank fosters beer, cooked waaaay too much meat (and vege sausages for the vegos amongst us). the dog stole a sausage straight off the barbie. the kids did nudie rudies through the backyard and in the shell pool and sandpit. people arrived at 10am and left just after 8pm. we listened to the Triple J hottest 100 and all agreed that no.1 and no. 2 should have been switched. DH is now asleep blissfully unaware that he WILL wake up hung-over and sunburnt te he he he.
all in all a great day.
oh, and BTW....
Leila is no longer a booby monster. she turned away from my offer last night and tonight just asked for her milk... bit sad at another time in our story coming to an end, but also happy that it was the timing of her choice. *sniff sniff*.:(
Thanks Hayley. How was the pool?
Had two ferals today. All afternoon they fought & carried on. Even got a vid of them. OMG, Alex was lashing out at Jack big time on occasions. Just didn't want a bar of him.
Anyways .. off to bed :) .. nite nite u lovelies!
OMG That's too weird, EXACTLY the same thing happened here, yesterday and the day before. (I hadn't posted yet because I'm still a little in denial). Thereby amplifying my claim Clare that we are really twins that were separated at birth! LOL:
Leila is no longer a booby monster. she turned away from my offer last night and tonight just asked for her milk... bit sad at another time in our story coming to an end, but also happy that it was the timing of her choice. *sniff sniff*.
just quickly, about to jump in the shower..
clare- have to disagree with one little point :)the hottest 100 was exactly as it should've been..both songs crackers, but number 1 definitely more of a cracker than the other!! lol
bbl ladies, very hot around here atm..i'm melting!!
hello all!
clare and MD that is rather freaky that the weaning happened at the same time for you both... but amazing that it is of the girls choosing and so phenomenal you have bfed til now. congrats to you both!
we have also been spending quite a lot of time in the clam pool. geez there must be a zillion of them in homes all over the country!
arte - glad the rice milk is working - how is it all going now?
all good here - had a great weekend, BIL, SIL and nephew came to visit which was great - the boys had so much fun playing together and we had such a great weekend. got bitten by a march fly yest at a picnic though and my arm has swollen up HUGE! off to chemist (again) i go!
ok better go do some work...
Quick post from me, we have visitors this week.
After the first night of success with the rice milk, the second night was a disaster. He woke up even more, refused the bottle so I had to BF. But then last night I was able to pat him to sleep and when that didn't work I offered him the bottle and he grizzled and rolled over and went to sleep - he went the entire night without a BF. So I will keep going, I have promised myself to try everything for an entire week to give a fair chance.
Clare, so the Twilight books are good? I have seen them in the shop but thought they might have been teen-trash so didn't get them. Have you read the vampire chronicles? How do they compare?
MD and Clare, I would say I am sorry that E and L weaned, I guess it is a sad end of an era thing, but really I am just jealous lol
PAP, glad you had a good weekend. My cousin is here with her 3 year old girl, it is sooo cute watching her and W play together. Hope your arm is o.k.
Who were first and second on Triple J?
W has started building with his blocks now instead of just knocking them down, he can make 'owers' (towers) that are about 5-6 blocks high before they must be destroyed lol So cute.
MD and Clare - :hug: for DD's weaning. DD is going through a weird stage. Not interested for 2 days, then wants a morning and afternoon feed the next day. Then repeated with nothing for 2 days. This has been going on for just over a week. Poor boobies, so confused!!
Arte - sorry the rice milk didn't work again, but well done for getting him back to sleep without a BF all night!! That is definitely a bonus, you know he can do it so you can be stronger next time!
We don't have a clam pool here, but we have a blow up one. DD was playing in it even without water yesterday and carrying it around the backyard. I put it away in the garage for the week and you should have heard the scream!! DH came running, thought she had really hurt herself!!
Good luck to all you Vic girls with the heatwave down there this week!!
DD had a big sleep in this morning, 7:15. That is only the third time past 7 since daylight savings switched on (and that first morning hardly counts as one)
And we had to have dolly propped up on the bench this morning - every spoonful of weetbix had to be offered to dolly first before DD!! Painful, but less painful than letting her do it herself!
JJJ #1 - Kings of Leon, Sex on Fire
JJJ #2 - MGMT, Electric Feel
wow on the sleep cally - gotta love that!!! hope she keeps it up!
so cute re the dolly!! i wanted to get N a doll (call it bubba) but DH put his foot down. i think he thinks i am going to make N into a girl LOL...
that reminds me those who are preg again, are you doing anything to 'prepare' toddlers for the new baby? i dont know what to do...
the bite is terrible - my arm is so swollen. dh came home at lunch and is shocked. i put some hydrocortisone cream on from the pharmacy but so far no chg. guess i will do to gp if it continues to swell. geez i havent been v lucky lately - feel like sucha sook!
MD meant to say poor you re the attack, but glad it means you wll get things sorted sooner...i see u have been online toda so guess you arent being gall bladdered!!
Arte - sorry the rice milk was a 1 trick wonder - but big woooo hooo on the no feeding last night. a light at the end of the tunnel. how are you feeling?
i am a bit down, my grandfather is not doing well the last few days - really awful... poor mum is dealing with it all... didnt sleep well lastnight thinking about it all.
i wonder how jaz is???
PP -so sorry to hear your granddad's not doing so well. Also full sympathies on the bite. Those marsh flies REALLY hurt, I've never known any one to puff up like that before, do you get a reaction to mozzies as well? :hug:
Arte - I think it sounds like you're making progress, expect an occasional backslide on the way forward. xxx
Cally - so cute re the dolly! Ah E just insists we take a bite of everything before she eats. Last night she had her dinner out of DH's plate cos she didn't want hers, she wanted his. *sigh* I can tell that's gonna get old real quick. We've just started a heatwave here too, 36 yesterday then three days of 41 (or more where I live). Crack out the icey poles!
Rainy I hope you've got aircon? If not, find some, quick! xxx
hey everyone just a quick check in to let u know we are alive haha
dp and asha had a horrible vomiting bug and ive had just the nausia and awful dizziness but i spose that could be pregnancy related..
am so sick oif the tiredness thought that would be over by now *sigh* pitty party at my place!!
anyway i really dont know what to post coz i am so all over the place still hopefully will be back some time soon i a better state!!
hope everyones doing well.. especially those in melbourne about to get (or already getting, not sure) the head wave..
hi ladies
yes i have air-con, but it's not the most effective air-con ever, better than nothing though. i am incredibly hot though and really struggling to do anything, i really can't believe the timing of this heatwave.i feel quite nauseous most days....anyway, enough whinging from me! i've got swimming tomorrow with ange and lu, but i do admit i feel a bit bad that lewis isn't really getting enough stimulation atm, poor little monkey. we took him to the beach yesterday, but it's just so hard with dh working all the time and me struggling so much now.
noni- hope asha is doing better now
pp- sorry about your grandpa, big hugs hun. we haven't done anything to prepare lewis for new bubs. i had a read of the chapter in toddler tactics about it, but tbh i think he's still too young.
arte- well done on the no bfing thing, keep it up hun!
ange- hows your dad doing now? must be something in that franga water
MD yes i do react to mozzie but not like this - it is more like they get kinda infected quickly... gross. this is kinda bizarre and it is still swelling, now it hurts a lot when i straighten my arm...
Noni - poor DP and Asha, that is awful especially in the heat. i hope you dont catch it. are you at the end of the 1st tri yet (sorry i am sure you are, i just forget where everyone is up to)
Hi everyone!
MD and Cally :hug: to you both on the weaning front.
MD, I was going to suggest that you go all out and have a bit of a self inflicted binge to bump yourself up the list, but it looks like mother nature took care of it for you. I hope that they give you a date soon. And you'll be FINE!!! Is H all excited about her new school?
PP, can you take phenergan while pg? You definately need something done for that arm. I hope that's what you're doing right now....
Well we are sitting out the heatwave in our pool LOL. Mum brought the kids one of those INtex self supporting pools for Christmas and its been brilliant. The kids are about to head out for a swim now (I like to wait till 5 when the shade of the tree is over the pool or otherwise they cook) We can all fit in it - it's nearly 4m across and 70cm deep. I am just loving it. I even sneak out when they've gone to bed for a swim in my birthday suit ROFL. I feel so free when I do it LOL (but please don't try to form a mental picture of it ;) it ain't pretty)
Hi girls!
so how about this heatwave huh? LOL! just thought to state the obvious for us victorians and south australians!! can u believe that it actually went from 34 degrees to 36 degrees at 5.30pm??? they reckon that it will hit 38 before tonight...
and 42 tomorrow. oh joy.
MD: that is soo awesome that our girls (like their mummas) have got that connection!! LOL! how cool. still feels really strange that she just doesnt care or ask and that the girls are reined back in...
Arte: in all honesty, i have never been sooo taken with a series of books. maybe it was the timing, but i just loved them. my friend in canberra was convinced as is half of melbourne uni's english and media PhD students. we are a sad bunch.
it does sound promising with the feeds. yay for a full night with the mighty boob. baby steps, baby steps. :)
Sherie: i am soo jealous of your mermaid moments in the pool (nudie rudie). i just love it too. love it when you are in the ocean like that. back in the day before slip slop slap us kids were always nakie at the beach. it was awesome.
PP: that bite does sound nasty. i reckon call the health line and get an opinion on it. i reckon it's because your immunity has had such a battering lately (especially from the tonsilitis) that it's just taken a bit of an extra hold.
i'm sorry to hear that your grandpa isn't well. it is so scary, especially if you live faraway. my Oma has been sick too, and i feel for her and my Opa who has to look after her.
ah stuff it and get Noah a dolly LOL! my neighbours got their baby boy a dolly and a stroller. you can get some awesome boy dolls these days (just to appease DH a bit!). I love watching them mimick and play with them. too cute!
Noni: oh that virus doesn't sound like too much fun. how do the bubs go with the vomiting? what are you meant to do??
Cally: that is so cute with the dolly! aw, you have a sharing girl there! i'm sure leila would rather bash dolly over the head than offer her her weetbix.
AFM: well we had mums group at the pool today. we all packed lunches and picnic rugs and hung out at the toddler pool. it was so much fun. then all the kidlets were so zonked that they all slept for hours! LOL!
Hi everyone,
I hope you're all fantastic!!!! I haven't been on in aaaaages!!! I like being able to catch up with many of you on Facebook though. It seems to be the quickest way for me at the moment.
My girls are all wonderful, Jess and Zoe are off to school tomorrow. There will be some tears (from me) as Zoe starts Prep.
I'd love to say I'll be back on soon to catch up, but the 2 hours that Hannah sleeps during the day is when I try to keep on top of everything , like housework :rolleyes:
Preg are you on Facebook?
Have a great night everyone. :) Miss you guys
hey everyone,
well i am going to sign all the papers for ashas enrollment this morning, after the morning weve had i wanna put her in more than one day let me tell you haha but we will just start with one for now lol i cant afford the extra bond anyway haha.. coz we get a really good percentage from centrelink on the ccb so sending asha is only $23 a day but the bond system they use means you have to pay 2 weeks in advance of full fees which is like $70 something a day lol u get it back obviously.. i spose they have to have that in place as a bit of security incase u just run off without paying..
jazmum - great to see u popping on.. gosh im nver on top of this housework! cant resist the couch when asha is sleeping!
cassius - yeh the vomiting in bubs is horrible.. not much u can do except try and comfort them and do ur best to get the fluids in them.. i rang the health helpline we have here and they told me as long as she was still having wet nappies it was safe for me to keep her home so we just went by that.. wow i dont envy you with that heat wave! where we live we had a few days that were in the 40 degree range and i absolutely hated it hope u have air con!
trillian - yay on the pool! we only have one of those little plastic ones (similar to the shell but its a square) its just not as good as submerging urself tho!
pp - sorry to hear about ur grandad.. not technically at the end of the first tri yet im 13wks today so next week i will be.. how r u going with everything? tell me the tiredness ends soon?? haha
rain - u poor thing can u get some help from family or someone when dh is at work?? enjoy swimming!
hi to everyone else hope everyones surviving in the heat! cross ur fingers for me tht it dosnt get too hot here as i have to walk down to the daycare at 10 n its about a 20min walk away..
