WOW, it seems like forever since I have been on here. Just haven't had the time and/or energy!

Lily is so big now. She is crawling like a speedster and standing on her own, but no walking yet. She still has only 2 bottom teeth (through around Christmas time) and is waking 2-3 times a night lately

Lily plays happily on her own for about 20 mins, but then comes to check that I am still around, and if I'm not ... the neighbours even know about it. I have stopped playing netball bacause last week I could hear her crying from the second quarter for the most of the game and it was horrible. She will have to get used to it though because she'll be going to day care in about a month, when I go back to work 2 days a week.

She says mama and dada and can clap and wave.

She is pretty much eating any thing and everything now, except sugary stuff and cows milk. I have made her piklets on breast milk and put apple puree in instead of sugar, and made her some quiches but with no milk. She has still about 6-7 BFeeds a day and then wheet bix most mornings, fruit for m/t a 1/4 sandwich or quiche for lunch and fruit for a/t and then what ever we are having for dinner. She eats mostly with her hands, except wheet bix and maybe dinner, depending on what it is. Her favourite food is MEAT, any meat!!

She was only haveing 2 x 30 min naps during the day, but over the last couple of days has gone back to one big nap of 90 or so mins, so that's been nice.

She loves her big sis and follows her everywhere!!

I am finally back to my pre-pregnancy weight, actually under!!! I have started doing triathlons!! Just small ones. I did my first complete one 2 weeks ago at Caloundra and I have my next one next weekend at Raby Bay. I think I am over compensating still for the fact that I didn't give birth naturally so I am trying to become superwoman in any other way that I can. I still feel $hitty when I hear of my friends giving birth naturally, so I am no where near over it! Oh well. I am just burying it for now and I'll deal with it later!

Now ...


Infinity - I hope Will got his teeth through ok. Lily was up every half hour for 2 nights. Geez, that was difficult. How is your pilaties going? I am so jealous about your BFP! Yay for you!!! I have not seen AF yet, so we're just waiting for her to arrive and then I hope to join you!!! When did AF return for you? Were/are you BFeeding? Sorry, I lose track of everyone!! So glad that you're going to stay here and share with us!!! Can I please suggest that you get a doula for your VBAC, preferably one with midwife training. I didn't and I think this is why I failed. I so wish I did. I will definately be getting one next time and I don't care what the cost will be. Good on you for going for a VBAC. One other thing stay upright as much as possible during labour. This is also where I went wrong. Mind you, I had 3 days worth of contractions, so I don't suppose I could stay upright all that time . LOL

Jen - Bet you feel like a new woman with your hair done! I am due, but can't really justify the money at the mo. How is child care going??


Ang - Isn't it gorgeous when they say mama!!

Sorry I cut the perssies short. Lily wants some attention and I like to give it to her when she wants it seeing she plays so well on her own a lot of the time. Balloons are her favourite at the moment.

Take care all
