LOL awww dont make me feel even worse...... ;)
Peach: That is fantastic news!!! :dance: Any idea when you'll be moving? I'll be able to fully and completely sympathise with the difficulties of moving with a young baby!
That was good that you got out yesterday and could visit another young mum. I can only imagine how great it must be to talk with another mum. How is Winter going with teething, and how are you going with Winter teething? I have to admit I'm really not looking forward to when Oliver starts teething...
Rainbow: Bad baby buddy, lol :lol:. Nah, don't worry about it - we're all busy mummies - we still love ya! How is Bella going?
Blip, Antheia, Moose: How you girls and your lovely bubbas going? :)
AFM: Well, things are good... and bad. Oliver is happy and fine (sleeping through tremendous amounts of noise, thank goodness - I'll get to that in a sec), and my Dad finished painting our house today (DH couldn't get time off work), so that's fantastic! Still not sure when carpet is being put in, so we're still not quite sure when we're moving... but anyhoo, the bad:
The owner of the house we're currently renting decided that he'd like to install natural gas for hot water and floor heating... that's fine. Ages ago some guys came and did some work on the outside of the house, but yesterday and today, and who knows how many more days, the gas guys are back finishing everything off... it involves them getting under the house, but also being inside the house installing vents in the floor in every room. They keep parking me in so I have to ask them to move whenever I want to go anywhere, they have to have the doors open to run their power cords through the house (and it's really cold in Tassie!), I feel too self concious to feed in front of a bunch of strange men, so I have to keep finding new places to feed where they're not going to be, and in order to get the holes in the floor to install the vents they have to make heaps of noise and mess with their drills, and move all our furniture out of the way! Aaarrgghhhh!!! And all this for something that we're not even going to be hanging around to enjoy. It's the worst possible time they could do this, when I'm trying to pack up the house at the same time. Thank goodness Oliver went down for his morning nap without any fuss, and thank goodness he's been sleeping through all the noise. The gas guys are still here though, and probably will be all day. I really think I'm just going to have to give up on packing for the day and go to my parent's house to escape... that's if they'll bloody well move their truck out of the way first!!!
Phew... and vent over.
peach: WOOO congrats on the rental! thats fantasic to hear! :dance: what kind of dogwhere you thinking of getting?
as for my nanna she's broken a bone in her wrist :( she's got a cast on for 6 weeks - the poor thing. but it could be worse, she has ostioprosus (sp??) and 11years ago broke her hip in a fall.. so its a blessing in a way!
afm: as soon as i got off BB last night darren woke up!but i did get dinner cooked :dance: and if i may brag, i made a killer garlic white sause haha. made me realiase how much i miss cooking. so this weekend we're having friends and their kids come over and maybe my MIL & FIL too...and im determond to cook for all of them! haha. my GP appt was ok. mind you he told me 'wait a a while" before DH and i start trying for another bub! hah i think we will wait untill maybe april next year (selfishy 'cus i want to be able to drink for my 21st LOL) but if it happens before then...well...its ment to be! DH and i are going to look at a car (or two) today after he's finished work...i hope we find something soon...i drove DH's car on sunday and now i want a bigger one haha
hope every one is having a good day!
Ah fast posting people!
'bow : your not bad. just a mummy! :hug:
sterla : aww about the noise! stupid work men...you do realise you have a wepon on your hands. one of oli's pooy nappys! that'd clear a room, i know darrens can! haha! i hope you get to move in soon, nice and realxing for you!
Blip: That's no good about your nanna :hug:. That's great about the cooking. I'm a hopeless cook - not that I can't cook, cause I'm actually an okay cook, I just don't really enjoy it very much for some reason. I wish I did. And yes, that's right - if it happens it happens ;).
stelra: yup. thats what DH and i keep saying LOL DH and i are thinking of going on a short driving holiday...and he said "ooo we'll be able to get some good solid practice in!" hahah...typical man!
Sterla- Thats pretty rude for the owners to be installing gas now... couldnt they have waited a week or two untill you guys were moved out? What a PITA! When we were moving back up here from Melb literally in the last few days we were there the owners decided to put in a new fence so I can sympathise. That is so not cool about you feeling uncomfortable feeding in your own home though. Grrr!
Blip- Good to hear your Nanna's going to be ok. Good luck with car hunting!
We want to get a staffy(Black male)... I really want to save a life so have been looking at rspca online and dog shelters but its sort of something Im having trouble with. DP and I have both grown up with them and dont want a cross breed. So I feel terrible but I think we will end up getting one from a breeder. I just wish people would desex their damn animals then there would... you know what Im gonna stop my rant lol
Sooo stoked about the house! We pick up the keys thursday(gotta get Captain One Toof vaccinated tommorrow :() its so cool we're allowed pets, now I wont have to hide the feline everytime someone knocks on the door!!
Oh how good is this getting lots of BB time today!
Peach, great news on the house, congratz!
Sterla, what a PITA! If it were me i would complain. But i love to complain lol.
I'm so tired today. Only for 4 hours sleep from 3:30-7:30am. I layed in bed for over 3 hours and i just could not get to sleep even though i was tired. My mind just wouldn't shut off.
That is so cool about the house! And great about being allowed pets - we have two cats and it was always a little hard with rentals.
:( That sucks about the vax... Oliver might be getting his tomorrow too, so I certainly feel your pain!
Antheia: You sound like my DH with the sleeping thing. It takes him ages to fall asleep cause he says his brain just won't switch off, whereas I'm asleep not long after my head hits the pillow. Hope you get to catch up on sleep :hug:.
AFM: I have escaped the gas men and am at my mum and dad's place. I'm hoping they'll be gone by the time I get home :crossfingers:. Oh well, Oliver gets to hang out with his Poppa and Aunty Bec for a bit :).
Hiya ladies,
WE are ok, Sammy has gone from growth spurt to teething so I am still getting up
at midnight 330 and then usually up by 6, so needless to say I am buggered. I was in bed by 8:30 last night. She is pretty good but you can just tell she is in pain, she's been wuite whingy but poor poppet is in pain obviously...oh and tomorrow we go for her 16 weeks shots! At least Dh is off for 5 days so will be getting some help. Sammy has gained 180gr last week with us cutting formula in half so we are very happy with that and we are slowly gonna cut more formula to see how she goes. I am coming off dairy on Friday and I must say, Sammy is not spewing like she used to at all, so am secretly hoping that was a phase as opposed to an intolerance because I WANT CHEESE & CHOCOLATE!~! LOL
Dh is so nice, he is going to stay home with me tonight to watch State of origin instead of going out with the boys. I will actually need a nap otherwise I won't make it!
Sorry no time for personals right now but will update more once I am back from MG this aftternoon.
Mxx
Hiya ladies :)
Moose: Aww about Sammy, poor little girl. I hope the worst of it passes soon enough :hug: and you can catch up on sleep. Have fun at MG.
AFM: I took Oliver for his vaccinations this morning. He was so good and brave - he screwed up his face with the drops of course, and cried when he got the needles, but he was very quickly distracted by the lady there jingling some keys :). He fell asleep in the car on the way home and has been asleep ever since. Hopefully he's okay this afternoon.
The gas people are back again, and they're even more in the way today. I'm in my bedroom typing on my phone cause I can't really be in the lounge room. I think they're finishing today though, so that's good.
Ah well, back to reading my book and eating chocolate while Oliver naps :).
Hope everyone is well.
Good day!
Sterla- That is so rubbish that you have to hide in your own home, I hope they finish today. I love that even though you got out of the house you still managed to get on BB at your folks(did someone say addict?? ;))
Im glad Oliver went well this morning with his vacc's, we are taking Winter later this arvo, SO not looking forward to it. I cried last time... eeesh Im getting nervous just thinking about it, quick change the subject!!
What kind of cats do you guys have? How are they with Oli? Our White Devil is 7 years old and is a turd! But I do love him :P
Moose- Oh dear, I hope you get some sleep soon! How horrible is teething? and the worst part is that this is only the beginning! Its great your DH is supportive, it makes all the difference I reckon. How was your MG? Anything interesting?
Antheia-I know what you mean... Im such an over-analyzer(sp) its hard to switch off sometimes. I know your busy with 3 littlies, but have you ever tried meditating? You could even try it when lying in bed just concentrate on breathing and trying to relax your mind. Easier said than done!! :)
Blip- Where are you today?! :)
Raver- Hello and Happy Birthday to Logan!!
So all is well here, DP is bringing boxes home this arvo so we can start packing, SO excited! Then as I mentioned Winter is getting her vaccines :(
Tommorow we have MG which Im excited about, then we sign the lease, then no doubt we will go strait to the new place and have another geezer(even though we did that last night!). Hopefully should get onto BB quickly at some point in the day but if I dont get a chance I probably will be away till mon Id say.. Oh what am I thinking there is still friday in the week! Duh.
Anyone doing anything exciting on the long weekend??
GO THE MIGHTY BLUES! (sorry heheh)
Hi ladies!!I know you will all be like who is this???Im so sorry!Am I allowed back in?I have seriously felt like i havent had any time at all but i finally feel that things are going better and i missed you all so much,i felt so alone i should of just made myself get on here regardless!!I hope you dont mind im back,i did keep coming on to read everybodys,just then found i had no time to reply to any!Things are quite good now,i felt really guilty as i had to stop breastfeeding at around 8 weeks,Summer just wasnt gaining enough and i tried everything but just felt i was stressing over it too much so shes been on formula since about then.But she is gaining and doing so much better which is the main thing.She sleeps really well,to be honest since shes been fed better(lowsy boobs)shes been pretty much sleeping through the night usually from say 8pm til 7am,so thats good,everything else seems ok.Well,i just mainly wanted to say hello and can i come back???
Of course you can come back PJ! :D It's been awhile, hey?! Glad Summer is doing well (we have a Summer and a Winter, lol). Try not to stress about breastfeeding - 8 weeks is awesome!
Hope you manage to get on BB a bit more. Great to hear from you :D.
ello my lovies! i missed you all! eheh!
moose: im glad to hear sammy is gaining! you're doing fantasic! :hug: as for teething - i think daz has started. he chomps on everything BAR the bloody teething ring thingys we got him! he likes my finger though hahaha! good luck with the 4 month needles!
sterla : stoooopid gas men. use oli's pooy nappy as a missile then claim "im tired and tripped" as an exuess, they'd soon learn! haha. i hope oli was good for the rest of the day for you!
peach: :wave: here i is! ooo glad to hear your excited about moving, i think i'd be packing my pants thinking about moving with daz right now! but i guess it'd be easyer then when they can crawl/walk!
PJ: hey darl. its ok to have to stop B/f! i know i have. daz has has that meany issues. im even slowly stopping expressing. it was making me depressed, you're doing whats best for summer, thats what is the most imporant thing :hug: if you need to talk PM me and im happy to listen - i totaly understand :hug:
AFM: today Daz was very clingy! he had a 30min nap this moring (well from 12-12:30) and i only had enough time for a quick BB surf and half a shower! (yes i said half! i had to stop mid-shower and bring daz into the bath room to stop the screaming!) then off to MG at one of the girls places. it was nice. she had the cutest cats and dogs! was very relaxed. we talked about all kinds of things...from labours (mine was 'hellish' they thought cus of the 24hrs of 5-7min apart contractions!) and poo we meet up agian in two weeks! which is nice to get out the house for a while...its amuseing daz's hands are his own worst enmy right now. he push's his bottle out with them then sooks about it...although today he worked out if he keeps chomping it keeps coming so he keeps drinking haha smarty bum he is....
other then that. not much has been happening. althogh Daz has a 6th sence for when NOT to cry...dh and i where snuggleing up and BANG he starts...so i jump up and almost run into his room...just in time for him to...STOP! hah, so i told DH i'd wait up for his next cry lol and feed him! haha
Welcome back pj! Of course you can come back! I hear you on the breastfeeding. I had to stop about 2 weeks ago because of low weight gain (Orson lost 600g in the first 4 weeks and just didn't gain well after that). Lucky he has always slept through the night though!
Well i still have this damn cough! Only at night when it's cold though but it doesn't help with my sleep.
Also i forgot to mention (those of you on facebook should know though) I hurt my rib last Thursday. I tipped over and fell onto the bed post. I have an absolutely massive bruise (bigger than my hand). It's a nice black/purple/yellow colour, lovely huh? It's starting to heal but there's a reallybig lump in there aswell and i'm not sure if i should get that checked out or if it's just torn muscle or damaged tissue..
Orson's ear is pretty much healed up now too. Just have to see the GP in 2 weeks to make sure his ear drum has sealed up. However he now has oral thrush due to the antibiotics so he's on Nilstat which is really sticky and bright yellow...hmm lovely! :P
anthiea aww about the oral thrush. daz had that...the nilstat hurt him so we had duktarn for him. it didnt taste as bad eather (i tried nilstat and it bought tears to my eyes it was that bad LOL! but it was the cherry one!) i hope your feeling better RE the rib! and i'm glad orsons going better!
what Forumlar are you giving orson?
blip, we use S26 formula. What about you?
WB pj!!
im off ladies, will see you gain on monday.. im heading to the BB meetup WOOO!!!!
take care girls xxx
