    JM - they aren't worth it hon.... though it must feel pretty rotten at the time, especially being in such a small community.
    Do your fitness regime - you will then be even more super dooper gorgeous and they will have even more to feel jealous of!

    Even if they did invite you, you'd hate it anyway because if they are that way inclined to exclude people in the first place, then you just know that they will spend the entire time *****ing about people

    JM, that would feel terrible. Bet she is just jealous of your beautiful girls. Is she the one that can't have kids? I am sure it is only her issues and nothing to do with you. I know some of the ladies from the local activities have their own meet ups - at the house across the road from me.

    Spew free today! Finally got a physio appointment but it took so long that the pain has settled to a discomfort now.

    i'd still go and get it checked out Arte... so no cancelling appts ok?!

    i know that some of the chicks from my MG meet up outside business hours. i *try* not to get my nose out of joint...thankfully i am so busy with being famous (hahahaha) that i tend to forget rather quickly...
    but it totally totally sucks considering how pointed the exclusion is. nuttin' more than "behind the school shed scrags" JM!

    And there I was lamenting the fact that I never had a mothers group - maybe it was a good thing!

    Yeah, you're all right. If i was in Aus i wouldn't give a second thought to it. She is the only other expat here with children. A 3 year old and a 9 year old. But she is not really the kind of person i'd want to be friends with anyway. She treats the nationals as second rate and tells anyone who will listen how they are doing everything wrong. I don't even want to be her friend, but i wouldn't be actively nasty to her, this is such a small village we have here, it's just not worth it. The one without kids has been organising cards and not inviting me becasue, she told someonelese, "I would be too busy" Thanks for telling me how i must be!
    But anyhoo, i'm over it now.

    Off to a ball in Lae on Sat night, should be a bit of fun. It's the ball associated with the Lae Agricultural Show. I am going with my most beautiful accessory..... Miss P. At least in the close carrier, she hides my baby belly a bit!

    The ball sounds like it will be heaps of fun JM. LOL at your accessory too!

    Took P to the Dr for an ENT referral on Wednesday too. He said they are huge and will more than likely need to come out but he said he couldn't say that for certain. Made the appt with the Paed ENT - for January 31, 2012 LOL! That was the earliest appt I could get. And it will cost $350!! but hopefully if he does do anything the wheels will turn quickly because we have the PHI.

    I know! It's mind blowing to think that even though the appt is next year, it is still less than FOUR MONTHS AWAY!

    G, how did you go getting private surgery for L?

    Trill, that is a long wait!

    JM, I would need at least twins to hide my baby belly!

    This year is just whizzing by - Erin is already nearly a month old!

    Went to the physio. Apparently the mega pain in the few days after the birth was from the pelvis ligaments being stretched too far during the birth and the lesser pain that I have now is muscular from the muscles taking over when the ligaments were strained. MD, I thought of you when I was getting my bum rub! Is this a common after birth thing? I have never heard of it.

    oh wow. i just realised that when P has the appt in january we will be already living in LA!!!

    Arte: are there any exercises that you need to do for the ligaments/muscles?

    Wow Cass, that makes it all very real! We will miss each other by a few weeks! I am still coming to melb on the 7th and 8th of Feb next year.

    Arte, it is just one of those things that some women will get and others wont. You had a bit of SPD during this pg didn't you? In women who have a lot of issues with ligaments during the pg can have them for a while after the pg because of all the relaxin hormones.

    G, I hate it when they wake up cranky!

    A very happy (belated) birthday to Lewis!! I hope he had a fantastic day. What did you do for the cake in the end?

    Cass, no special exercises yet - was only a 20 minute assessment though. Have a longer appointment next week. I am hoping it is just massage and I don't have to do anything lol

    There are a crazy amount of huge babies in this thread!

    Ella, I forgot to say congratulations! I keep reading when I have my hands full, replying in my head and then by the time I post I can't remember if I have said it or not. Thankfully neither of my big kids are interested in picking up the baby. W wants to hold her all the time but they don't try to move her anywhere. So far it is hugs and kisses

    G: that is great news re the appt! if it is like in my case he can probably get L in the following week lol.

    i too, cannot believe how the time has gone and that our 'babies' are now on the threshold of true 'childhood'. i remember being 4 like it were yesterday and that also freaks me out
    the other day DH was carrying L and i looked over and saw her hands and her feet (it was a rare, warm day lol) and my goodness...they were not the hands of a little toddler, they were the hands of a child ITMS. very grounding.
