    whoot! Heaven. Fantastic news hun!! So very happy for you guys and sending you lots of or perhaps some this time around?

    Shell - my mum had similar symptoms to what you are describing a few years ago. She was told she'd had a virus in her inner ear. It eventually went away by itself. I hope the ENT has some answers for you. Do you have to wait long to get in?

    OP - try not to stress hun. Easier said than done. No idea about pre-e but hoping like mad you don't have it! Hope DD is feeling better soon too xx

    Hi girls! Hope you're all having a nice long weekend. Sorry can't stay long to do more personals. I shouldn't have carried on about DS's great sleep last post, it's been pretty crap the last week or so. He's cut another tooth the other day so we knew why but last night was an absolute shocker for no apparent reason that we could work out. Lots of wake ups then awake from 12:15am to 3:45am then awake at 4:30am then just before 6am and screaming so hard he was dry retching for over half an hour until we got him up. I think he might have just gone back down now so I'm following. Poor DP had to go to work today too. I'm worried he's gunna have a car crash or something

    shell my mum had something similar at christmas and was also told it was an inner ear infection (?) it lasted a few weeks, i grew up with something similar to menieres disease so i know alllll about vertigo, terrible i hope your feeling better though.

    OP yikes on the high BP i hope it comes back down for you chicken

    pinny look forward to seeing you next tuesday!!

    kaz hugs darl on the sleep i hope once all his teeth are through things settle down for you.

    AFM M took a tumble down our steep driveways yesterday so mum of the year award goes to me, she ok a few bruises on the face and a few scrapes to her head. sleep has been better finally, slept through the past two nights shocked i tell you!
    also found out friday that she has an intolerance to nuts! found out via her bloodtest from the naturpath, so back there tomorrow t find out more, but the digestive enzymes must be assisting the better sleep along with the grommets! we've also stopped night feeding, so really its a combo of the 3

    olive - so happy for you that Miss M is sleeping through. I hope it continues as a general trend from now on!! It's so the way to have two or three (or more) things combining to affect them. Makes it so hard to work out what's going on and what will help in any given situation. I know babies are not one-dimensional and are complex little creatures and most of the time that's positive but when it comes to sleep I wish they were more straightforward! I'm straightforward: It gets to the end of the day. I'm tired. Therefore I sleep.

    Hi ladies,

    Sorry for my absence - I'm still here, still in one piece! Nesting furiously and trying to get everything ready for the little one's arrival. Have a feeling it'll be soon.

    Kaz - so sorry about J's sleep issues again! Hope you and DP are doing ok through this rough period...
    Thanks for asking about DD - she is much improved since the weekend

    Olive - yay about Millie's sleeping! Really hope its the beginning of a good pattern for you - you deserve it!!! Poor love falling down the drive! DD fell off the couch today and I was right there so I guess mother of the year is out of my reach this year too.

    Shell - two weeks to go for me by dates. Feel like it'll be sooner though... he's already engaged which I wasn't expecting til I went into labour! So we'll see... Glad your vertigo has settled down (saw it on fb) - that must have been a real pain! And kinda weird...

    Lilima - thanks for your thoughts. I still feel fine - no headaches, swelling isn't too bad, no vision problems so I'm thinking I'm fine. You're probably right - it probably was just because of being at home with a sick toddler all day by myself!!!

    How's everyone else going??? Heaven - thinking of you!!!

    Hugs all round!

    OP- Oh wow, 2 weeks so close! I'm looking forward to hearing the news and what name you've chosen. You packed up your bags already? yeah I'm so glad the vertigo settled, I feel like a new woman!

    Kaz- How things your way? I know J had a shocker the other night, how he doing now?

    Olive- poor Millie, they do everything and anything to themselves. I bet she'll heal quickly, its great on her sleep tho, hope Sophie goes ok, have you got vaporiser on with eucalyptus, sometimes too I out the eucolyptus on a hankie under the pillow, helps a bit.

    My vertigo has settled, thank god, still will prolly go see the ENT just to see if I can prevent it in the future cause have had probs in past (not as bad as this time tho) just gotta call up and make an appt now.

    Wow OP - 2 weeks!! How exciting! I am on standby and my phone is always charged

    Olive - yay at Millie's sleeping. We have had some shockers recently but last night Miss J slept from 6.45pm - 5am so that was a bit better!

    Kaz - how is the sleeping going for you?

    Shell - I hope you are continuing to feel better! Vertigo would be awful.

    Hi to everyone - I am trying to keep up but failing miserably

    For anyone going to the Sydney meet next year (planning in advance) I have booked a room and need a roomie (I booked a harbour view so slightly more expensive - it will be $328 each for 3 nights) so I thought I would put it out to any of you guys first to see if anyone wanted to share? Let me know if you are interested.
