fi Oh hun...its so tough being a mum...try not to be too hard on yourself Give yourself at least a year for your body to go back...9 months to grow it 9 months to get it back is my motto x LJ WTG William! Woohooo! Stevie hun you do whats right for you....and if you are UTD then thats awesome....babies are always a blessing
Not much happening here...Flynn is a porker...I shold get him weighed..I am sure he has cracked the 7kgs He is so strong holds hi head really well. I saw one of my bf the ohter day with her new baby he is 2 weeks and we put them side by side and Flynn looks like a sumo lol!
boomba Luke was 6.8kg on 3rd Jan can't wait to weigh him agaiin I reckon he is close to 8kg talk about strong we have been using our activity centre the ones like walkers but not walkers and he sits up in it fo 10min or so loves it see my latest pics on FB, I swear he will be crawling soon the way he moves around his cot and on floor, you can't leave him on a queen bed he will be at the edge in no time *sigh*... also he was desperatl trying to roll fom belly to back today, he had the legs up and hips over but his arm was stopping him :shock:
I know Rach...I miss my newborn baby..yhe is growing up way to fast..I will ahve to look at your pics again I didnt see that one? 8kgs wow I dont think Flynn is far off
he's huge its ridiculous, he has just less than the recomended formula quantity but he is so big he wear some size 0 clothing he got given a heap of target 2 piece pj's in size 00 for xmas well a few of them are quite snug but then other things like rompers short leg sleeveless some are 000 so who knows but target is generally pretty consistant wish I had asked for size0 but who knew
I so need to make another CHN appoint I love knowijg how long they are and how much they weigh... my MIL thinks I am padantic about it but its nice to be able to look back and compare the boys..with Jack I was at CHN every 2 weeks or so but now its moved and well they dont do as many appoint
Thought I'd pop in and say hi to my belly buddies group....... Alyssa was born on the 6 November so I didn't quite fit in with the baby buddies dates and I've been in the November group, but I'm thinking I might try and keep up with both if that's okay!! It's very quite in the November group and there's only about 4 of us in there....
I can't believe how quickly the timeis going!! Little miss Alyssa is growing up way too quick for her mummy!! She's just about grown out of the bassinet so I think I'll have to start putting her in the cot. And cause our room is so far away from the nursery I'm making DH sleep in the spare room for a while until i'm used to the idea!!!
Anyway, just popping in quickly to say hi. I'll start going back and catching up on how everyone's little bundles are going.
Hi Emma - it's lovely that you are joining both groups so welcome to you and Miss A too!
Rach - I think it is super adorable that Luke goes to sleep with his hand on yours, that would make me cry every time. I sing with E during the day but when it is bed time i just put his mobile on. Atm his favourite song is prob incy wincy spider.... sad i know.
As for rolling over... i put E on his tummy mat last weekend (it is a mat that has a little pillow which goes under his upper body) he kept rolling himself over to his right side. i was super shocked. i know he was aided by the pillow being there but he is getting so strong now.
Fi - sorry i didn't post about your tummy last time Fi (that sounds odd doesn't it?). Don't stress too much about losing the weight/getting back to pre-baby. It's hard and our bodies are very different shapes to what they were previously. If i remember right, you had a CS like me... i personally think that has contributed even more to having a flabby tummy... i have pretty much lost all my baby weight too but i have this flabby tummy that hangs down yukky and means that some of my old clothes still don't fit even though i am similar weight. i think it is hard to get our tummy back to that way it was because our muscles etc were cut so it is going to take quite some time for healing etc.... at my last OB checkup the Dr said that for the (up to) 6 months my internal wounds etc will heal so i am figuring i have 6 months to gradually heal and get my body back to normal. Hugs to you cause i know how frustrating it is... i get really angry that i weigh almost the same but my clothes don't fit because my tummy is fatter.
Boomba - i like your motto of 9 months to gain, 9 months to lose!
Also to Boomba and Rach - sze 00 and 0 - OMG! i was really surprised to read that cause E is not that much smaller but he just moving from 0000 to 000 now and still fits 0-3 months Pumpkin Patch clothes with room to grow still. i think i mentioned that he was 6kg and 62cm at 9.5 weeks so prob about 65cm and 6.5kg now (he grows at over 1cm p/wk). Must just be different proportions........
Tam it does melt my heart a tad he lieks to hold my hand when I am feeding him as well, which means I can't be bad a feed and surf net to much he gazes up at me as well awwwwwwww........melts my heart I tell ya...

: managed to sort Luke out so will do a decent post LOL
Welcome back Emma! Was wondering where you went1 Congrats on your beautiful baby girl! I am officially a November mum too but am more comfy here Tammie its a good motto hey..i mean our bodies are amazing and they know what to do with a little help from us! Plus we all cant look like a supermodel after having a baby
Well my DS1 went to his first day of care today A friend is starting up a FDC and I cant bring myslef for him to be looked after by a tranger just yet So this is perfect! Had a lovely day wiht DH and Flynn so it was great..DH is off to get Ds1 very soon
just a short update.. am cooking myself a one person meal (which SUCKS lol) and Miss A hasnt been asleep since 6 am this morning :O so she's gettin a little stroppy and i think overtired,
i couldn help myself and took a hpt this morning.. im pretty sure there was only one line but as most of you know if you look at it long enough you swear you can see a faint faint other line.. ima wait a week and see how i go..
ill be back shortly for personals i promise xxx
Well, we had our appt today - DS was 6.29kgs and 60cms long - all up to par
Back later - DH is going out tonight and i'm going to be home alone with DS - Here's hoping I can get some stuff done and have him sleeping by 10pm... And so much for me having my 'morning' for myself *sighs*
Fii know what you mean about being tired, when they slept so well for such a long time you get accustomed to getting a decent nights sleep. Miss A is doing this to me at the moment, she wakes at 2-3am and this wrecks me, i drop off to sleep so many times during the day, if i sit down BAM im asleep LOL. and sweetness, your not being vein, i think we are all going through that at the moment, i was convinced id fit into my pre pg clothes by now but no, i dont im not far off them its just this flabby belly, and this huge a@@ i managed to get. and with DH not living up to your expectations, i hear you there too, but i dont need to go into my situation, you all know what its like for me and your all so supportive, so if i havent thanked you enough already...
Thanks ladies, it means the world to me Tamits good to see your persistance is paying off with E's sleeping. Miss A is the same when she sleeps through, she almost chokes she's shuggin it down so fast LOL Amber and rachEi weighed Miss A the other day at the parenting class, but there scales were in pounds and i couldnt work out how to change it but she was 11p 5 i think, i think i worked it out to her being just over 5kgs. but she's 000, the legs are usually too short in 000 but if i put her in 00 she's swimmin in them lol. Emma of course your welcome in here the more the merrier. i LOVE your babies names btw i actually wanted to spell mine with a 'Y" but DH wanted the 'I' i was just happy we'd chosen a name that i liked so much lol. RachLOVE it whne they hold your hand Miss A always holds onto my thumb (or finger) when she's feeding, and she'll stare up at me soo freakin cute, gonna miss it when she's not tiny anymore Amberi hope all went well with DS1's daycare day im sure he had lots of fun!!] LJ i know what you mean about not getting much time to yourself, i swear i get more 'me' time when DH is away, but i think its coz i get a little routine going when he's gone, and we dont really go anywhere when he's away, but when he's home we spend all day everyday running here there and everywhere lol. i hope you get all that you need done
AFm, as far as me getting the result that i want, i dont really mind either way. some parts of me are screaming 'no.. no.. we arent ready yet' other parts of me just knows how much of a blessing another baby would be. theres so many pros and cons, and you know what, whats ment to happen will happen, im a great believer in that!! it will all work out the way its ment to. ive had a little bit of spotting today, so im not sure if this means AF is about to rear her head or what, but im not gonna think about it for another week, and this time next week we'll see how we are then lol.
On other news, DH finally brought me a new car well its not new but newer than my 17 year old baby parked out the front LOL. 04' Dual cab 4x4 rodeo, AUTO (im crap i know) but i told jon my needing an auto is a blessing in disguise.. at least he cant thrash the **** out of it like he does his SSV we should be getting it in about 2 weeks, we went to our local holden dealers and test drove one similar (the one we are buying is in sydney) and compared to my teeny tiny lil car, this think is a freakin boat LOL!! ill be ok once i get used to it but its gonne take some getting used to, DH keeps telling me ill be ok, but he's had his licence for long enough that he can ajdust easily into any car (plus he drives massive trucks in the mines) ive had my licence for 6 months... its gonna be hard to get used to driving something to massive.. but it has a bullbar so my advice.. "OUTTA MY WAY!!!" heheh
anyway Miss A didnt sleep ALLLLLLLLL day, and im not kidding, she woke at 6am and i put her down at about 7:15pm... she wasnt even in a bad mood, just very playful which was awesome but now im knackered and am off to bed so nighty night ladies xxx
Boomba how did Myles go today I will be so nervous when Jack eventually goes if he doesn't get called up for early kindy he will be in 1/2 day care one daya week last term of year so he can transition to 3 day kindy next year :yikes:
Stevie thats what Luke did Monday I had my eyes hanging out of my head by time Jase got home, let along trying to do it alone
11lbs 5oz is 5130grms for new car th eonly thing I can say about getting used to a bigger car is carparks and very deceptive we used to have a nissan patrol when I got my licence (only had it 5 years ) so I was ok then but we moved down to a falcon and crewman so goig back to a triton in nov was like holy crap when it comes to parkigg I still suck, getting better, if I am by myself (outhere doesn't matter) I try to park out of the way might mean a walk to shops but better than sideswiping someone elses car or having trouble with reversing
AFM : off to Gladstone this arvie till mon or tues, Jase had hoped to get the boat out but weather sucks again for fishing anyway should be interesting few days I refuse to sit around his parents place doing nothing bores me ****less I could do that at home at least here I am relxed LOL see how it goes
hope to get Luke weighed sometime this weekend so shall let ya all know what fatty boomba weighs LOL lets see if this weekend thrwos the boys routine out of whack again, I dont really have a routine but lukes like to go to bed early and Jack goes to bed at 9pm which never happens at IL's ... but this week it took 3 nights to get Luke back to good sleepign after spending fri and sat night with IL's in agnes and Jack well we have been doing night TT he was dry sat sun mon nights tues night he wet and same wed night last nigth I went to take him to loo before I went to bed at 10.30pm he was already wet *sigh* so put a nappy on him ... see how we go ... but he has been so tired lately refuses a day sleep and is up down when we put him to bed grrrrrrrrr........ so I am being tought this weekend and besides tonigth when we will go out for tea etc he is going to bed at 9pm latest....lets see how it works anyway all I have to do is iron a couple of things for me to take and irong some uniforms for next week...
Oh hun...its so tough being a mum...try not to be too hard on yourself 
xxx
and your all so supportive, so if i havent thanked you enough already...
well its not new but newer than my 17 year old baby parked out the front LOL. 04' Dual cab 4x4 rodeo, AUTO (im crap i know) but i told jon my needing an auto is a blessing in disguise.. at least he cant thrash the **** out of it like he does his SSV
