Hi all. I was supposed to go to work today https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...hell-cope.html and I lasted an hour before Mum called me as he was screaming. 8 month seperation anxiety!:shakehead:
And last night DH did the vaccuuming after the State of Origin & Mr I woke up & wouldn't go back to sleep. DH watched Pretty Woman with him, then I got up at 11:45 with him and got him to sleep at about 12:45. Should go to bed, but I'll do a bit more work first.
Hey snowy,
I just read that :( Sorry to hear he wasn't a happy camper. On the up side thats so great that your work are so understanding - how awesome! Did you end up getting much work done at home?? Its definately a little stage they go through.. Are you still working once this busy period is over, or is it just to help out for tax time? Hope your day was too stressful :hug:
sarah - i'm totally with you... after reading ina mays book, i'm such and advocate for natural birth! I have SOOOO many pregnant 'friends' (i highlight the word friend, cause really they're just a mob of cows), who i try and recommend her book to and they just blow me over. Argh, drives me nuts! I think BB should be a must for all mothers. This website can be so enlightening! How is hennie and fox going too?? That new pic of harper is just divine.. she is a nice mix of you and your DH, she really is just stunning! And just cause I haven't told you for a while - youre such an attractive woman, and i love you to bits! woow....... stalker lesbian much? :redface: Ooo you should put some pics up on the hennie and fox FB page too!! Im super keen to have a squizz!!
xxoo
hehe telly, i <3 you too, blushing, thanks, i think harper is a bit cute too
im so all for natural birthing too. that frame of mind really helped me in labour i think
i have the worlds clingyest baby
man my arms and bb's are going to fall off
im taking photos of h&f tomorrow, ill add em
love madame
Hi Girls,
Don't know how long i've got til Archie cracks it....
Sarah: OOhh Hope everything turns out good for your SIL. I am TOTALLY all for as natural as possible.
Is there a Hennie and Fox page on FB???? Why can't i find it???
Telly: I cracked up when i saw Kaili's typing! So cute! Brit was a crap sleeper too... maybe it runs in families..... hmmmm.
Angela: Oh lovey, hope your next day at work goes alot smoother than today!
Bec: I think Archie is getting his top teeth too! Geez i'll have my everything crossed that Luke's scan is all clear xx
Mon: I've started reading the Twilight books! I wonder if i'll be team Edward or Jacob... hmmm....
Natty: It sounds like you've got heaps going on. Big hugs.. Oh how i'd love to do sleep school... i might look into that.
Ahhhh crap gotta go xx
Hi Madame - re your SIL do they suspect a big baby then as that's common with gestational diabetes. I know a girl who was left till 39 weeks and had a 12 pounder, yes 12 pounder and she tried to give birth naturally and got ripped to shreds and ended up having a c-section, her baby now has shoulder problems and a bit of brain damage because he had already started to try and squeeze his way out. Very sad and I know this isn't common or anything but just thought I'd share. I recently had some conversation on FB with the BellyBelly people and got quite offended at their opinions on c-sections, I felt like I was being lectured and ridiculed for having it even though it wasn't planned and really was the only choice I had in the end and yes I do believe it was the only choice, the only "safe" choice left. I think they are very quick to judge on why some people have c-sections, we're not all out there booking in for them willy nilly so for those of us who had no choice it makes it a little hard to swallow hearing the "anti c-section" comments. I'm not having a go, just sharing my point of view hee hee - love you all so hope that read ok peeps. Anyway, I'm sure they have her best interests at heart. I was all for a natural birth and look at me and to be honest while it took me a bit to get over the disappointment I'm glad they did what they did or Amelia would most likely not have made it. I guess we all have a story to tell and it's a personal decision. I've become a lot more open to reasonings behind c-sections since having one, I wouldn't recommend it unless necessary though, as it is I've missed out on experiencing that part of childbirth. Unless I try for VBAC next time which I'm yet to decide on and read up on before I make my decision. Hopefully I can. Gosh sorry I went off on a bit of a rant then didn't I, I think I'm tired and it's time for bed, sorry girls, didn't meant to get so intense! xx
not intense
sorry, still one handed. man my whole day has been one handed
yes ali, induced at 1030 this morning due to worry of big bub but i believe all went well and an 8 pounder something Esperanza?? sp? was born a little after 9pm.
although i did hear stitches and general anastethic in there somewhere. not sure on all details. no doubt mil will fill me in tomorrow. everyone seems well, dad seemed tired but happy! another girl!
love m x
LOL 8 pounds is not big, WTF ha ha! Well, not for a gestational diabetes bub anyway, Amelia was 7 pound 14! That's one thing that bugs me is how off they can be with sizes, now if you opted for a c-section thinking it was going to be big then that irritates me and they said that to me in labour that the baby was going to be around 9 pound and I might not have a big enough pelvis to get her out......I wasn't going to say yes just based on their size estimation though, but ended up with other issues to worry about anyway! Esperanza, is that the name? Anyway, find out the details and let us know tomoz. Definitely lots of girls in the last 12 months. One of my friends at mums group had a girl - she's 8 months now and she's pregnant with another girl, due in December, yikes!
yes Esperanza is her name, not sure on sp. BIL is american of mexican background. Rodriguez as their surname
ill find out details today!
if i have the strength to listen, shocking night here
x
Esperenza Rodgriguez.....love it!! She'll have to be an actress or something with a name like that!! Really grand sounding if you know what I mean???
I am a terrible mother - I have been giving Abbey Panadol AND Nurofen the last 3 nights in the hope of getting more sleep....hasnt really worked, she still stirs but I havent really had to bounce her to get her back to sleep so it might be working a bit.....wish they came with an off switch!!
TMI coming - poor DH hasnt had any action in god knows how long so I was trying to put an effort in last night and DTD and we were interrupted at least 3 times by Abbey and once by JD.....see there's a reason I dont bother - the whole freaking ordeal takes about an hour with all the interruptions and I really would prefer the sleep!!! Midnight I ended up shutting my eyes, then out on the lounge with her from about 1 and up and down a fair bit and DH slept in and woke up 10 mins before he was due at work at 6:50....not worth it! Terribly naughty and no protection but AF only finished on Tues so I would be really in the clear hey?
xoxo
Oh nice to know someone else is crap at it lol.. V has a dtd radar and always kills the mood haha
Ooo I really like that name Sarah!!
Totally agree with Shayna, a movie star in the making!
Having a lazy day and loving it! But soon to be ruined.. grocery shopping. Boo!
Wow Sarah that is an exotic name, me three agreeing with the others, makes me think of Penelope Cruz for some reason lol! Bet she has beautiful skin and dark hair? You'll have to get some pics up on FB.
LOL Shayna - I'm too scared to take chances, AF just finishing or not - depends on your cycle really - I used to have short cycles so always felt like I had AF, was fertile, then got AF again - they're out to 28 days since having Amelia now. I have mine at the mo, god they suck. But getting back to the DTD debate, I just find I can't be bothered, how bad is that! I do to keep DH happy but quite honestly I could easily go without these days, gosh I'm sounding old. I used to bonk like a rabbit when I was younger, obviously did too much of it bahahahahahahahaha.
Weather is crappy as in Perth, I am meant to be going to a clothes party tonight and I just want to stay home and snuggle on the couch with a pizza (great for the diet) and a DVD. If I cancel my friend will be so angry at me, boooooo.
Hi Ladies,
sorry it's been ages since I posted, but to be honest was not sure where to find it again!!
I am in full agreement with the Bumbo Seats, my little escape artist was breaking out of it over a month ago and yes I found out the hard way he fell from the kitchen bench to the floorboards so I get the bad mother award! can't use it now as he just gets right out so I have it on the floor at all times, so be very careful if you are using one keep it low!
my little one is in to everything, and standing on everything, i can't even change his nappy in peace no more he just has to move move move!!! my daughther was so different didn't do any of this till 10mths I guess she was lazy!! but no teeth still!
how is everyone else going?

Hi BellaB - it's been quiet in here, we've been conversing on Facebook more often lately lol. We certainly have to watch our little ones don't we, you don't realise how much more tiring it is when they start moving, more fun, but more tiring lol. I'm hoping this is the stage where the extra few kgs starts to drop off! Amelia isn't crawling yet but she is rolling from one end of the loungeroom to the other and just wriggles her way around as well. I'm in no hurry for her to crawl I must admit! We have 2 bottom teeth and I think the top 2 aren't too far away, she's got her fist in her mouth again and keeps putting her tongue on her top lip so not sure if that's for the same reason. She's also a bit of a nightmare to change, she just wants to move and roll, can get quite frustrating can't it! Woops for Anton falling out of the bumbo, was he ok? Amelia was rolling when trying to change her nappy the other day so I sat her up, she is still a little wobbly sitting for long periods of time but as I was putting her shirt on she fell slightly to the side and of course she was right against the wall so she hit her face. There was that horrible silence for a second and then she screamed - she ended up with a little bruise on her cheek, I felt so awful. DH told me there's going to be more of that as time goes on and I guess he's right, it's going to be horrible watching her fall and things but I guess to an extent it's part of learning isn't it. I don't mean really bad things but just the odd little minor thing here and there. Not looking forward to those times at all. Wish we could wrap them up in cotton wool! BTW, was looking at some recent pics of yours on FB the other day, gosh Anton is gorgeous, he's such a little man, super super cute and you look hot in your sig pic. You're soooo pretty and your hair is just gorgeous.
Hi everyone else, hope you're all well. xx
I'm bacccccccccccccccccckkkk... yippeee!!!!!!!!
Mind you, now my house is a complete pigsty again. It would be so much cleaner if I didn't have kids you know...
oo i second that comment.
so much cleaner if children wern't involved, haha.
DH said to me at the dinner table tonight, "do you ever wish you could have a day off??"
err... yes!?!
Lovin' your ticker too woman! Little monkeyfarts - and beautiful monkeyfarts at that! ;)
Bahahaha.. yeah I had lots of things in there.. blessings... kiddies.... monkeys.... oooh.. monkeyfarts.. that works.. LOL
Ladies... My hair is falling out :(
WTF?! I thought it might have been that I changed my shampoo to that Tresemay (sp), so I changed back to herbal essence, but its still coming out?! Not so much falling out, but breaking off... Like LOTS of it!! What do I do??
I'm addicted to washing it, sometimes twice a day. So DH has told me to not wash it for a week and see how it goes. Today is day 2... i feel so dirty... i want to washh...
has this happened to any of you? :(
My hair fell out lots after Lucas at about 8 otr 9 mths, but I've got lots of hair so you couldn't notice anything on my head, just the amount of hair on the floor (polished floors really show up long hair). This time I've cut it all off so I'm not noticing anything. They say you don't lose hair while pg so the extra loss now is making up for what you didn't lose while pg.
Thanks snowy!
I thought it may have bee related, but i thought this long after pregancy it wouldn't be linked.
ahh i feel a bit better now!
thanks again!
Yeah my hair does exactly the same thing.. and you are going to think I am so dirty but... (deep breath) I only wash my hair once a week. I use moogoo which is all natural and no crap in it, so I really don't need to wash it before a week is up...
Going back under my rock now....
i only wash mine twice if im lucky x
i can hear it now-
"mum, those girls arimeh and madame....they're so dirty, they only wash their hair once a week....eeewwwwww...mum....."
when i was a teenager i washed it every morn before school. Now my hair is nicer washing once or twice. i use tresemme telly and its great for my hair
still bfp, but loads of cm and no af yet.......is cm an early preg sign? i cant remember!
ROFLMAO!!!!!! Bahahahaahahahahaah!!!!:
Ahhh thats funny..
Hey ladies sorry I haven't been keeping up I'm sick and tired, just wanted to tell my twilight girls to get the twilight the graphic novel it's so good tells the story in a comic strip type style though great artworks in there
And mally is 6 today *cry*
Lucky you girls! I have to wash my hair every 2nd day, sometimes every day as it gets oily - it was great while pregnant, got away with it every 3 days but now back to 2, sometimes every day. Sux cause I use decent stuff and it costs me a bit!
New thread time baby buddies! :)
