Thanks so much for your kind words and support Kass.

Well everybody I have super fantastic news!! I don't have to wean Leila!! I spoke to a friend the other day and told her how I'd gone on medication and had to wean Leila and how upset I was about it. Anyway she is about to have her second baby and had a lot of trouble BF her first so has been reading up and read in an ABA book that most antidepressants are safe to take and she gave me the number of a helpline to ring as they tell you what you can & cant take. They said my medication was perfectly safe to take, especially with a baby as old as Leila! Woo hoo!!!!!! Now I don't have to feel guilty about weaning her because I had to go on meds - thankfully I had still been expressing a little and my milk hadn't dried up. I'm really happy.

Fi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Amazing news!!!! I ring a certain number when ever Im unsure about medication that Im about to take! It's amazing how wronge we get it! MOST medication is perfectly safe to take while feeding
Great news hun At least thats one thing you dont need to worry about

[fi1980]

where is everyone!!

[Kazmar]

Im here How is everybody and their tiny ones???

I have just moved Lucy out of our room into a room with Annabelle. Mind you she is still in our bed by the morning haha Both Annabelle and Lucy are lol

Saw the health nurse the other day. All is well Lucy is a tiny bubba as I do breed teeny ones lol
Still breastfeeding nice and stronge. Still a clingy baby, which I sometime whine about, but really wouldn't have any other way haha

Have I know got everybody on fb????

Is anybody else thinking of TTC again? Just curious

[fi1980]

Kass what do you mean is anybody else thinking of TTC again - are you ready to go again!!

I've thought about it but not just yet for us! We will probably TTC sometime next year as I've always thought an age gap of 2-2.5 years is the way to go

No no not yet for us lol

Just seeing if others are

We have just under two and a half yr gap between our girls and its perfect I wouldn't want any furthur apart
We will asses it again when Lucy is over 1yr. 18 months or so. Annabelle was 18 months when I fell pg with Lucy

[fi1980]

sweet - i'm thinking the exact same timing so maybe we will be belly buddies again!!!

[Kazmar]

That would be awesome!!!

[Rach75]

I've been a bit slack with BB lately been suffering headaches and dealing with Jacks tantrums...

Kass I would go back now if jase said lets go again, we started TTC when Jack was 3 mths old but we dont fall pg easily, Luke was my surprise baby I had given up in the dec (08) decided we were happy with Jack and our tiny angel Katy then wow out of no where we fell naturally with Luke

[ElleJay]

Starting to wonder if I'm the only one that's happy to wait till DS is 2-3yrs old before we even think bout trying... Although with all the friends of mine that are having kids, it is kinda making me a little clucky

[Kazmar]

Rach- maybe let things that there course, and another surprise might happen???

Liz- each to their own What ever works for you and your little man

[Rach75]

am on the pill now Kass......as I told jase I am not ready for anything permanent, if we did decide it would have to happen naturally no clomid or fertility stuff for me

[fi1980]

Liz - nice to see you in here! Everybody will be ready for more babies at different times and origianlly I had thought that 3 years in between would be good but sadly I am not getting any younger and things don't always go according to plan which is why I will probably ttc earlier. I hope you are feeling better these days.

Rach - I think that is a good attitude. If you have to go through fertility stuff if can be very stressful. We were a bit like you and fell naturally and easily with Leila but prior attempts were not so successful and when I did fall the first time it was through clomid. I really don't want to do that again so I'm hoping for another natural surprise!!

Well poor Leila has been so out of sorts lately. I was at my witts end with her not knowing what was wrong finally I took her to the doctors, expecting them to tell me she was just teething or had a virus or something. Turns out she has a really bad ear infection. Poor little thing, now I feel terrible for not realising sooner that something was really wrong We have an appointment with the health nurse this morning so I'll log back on later to give you all the stats on my little girl.

Fi

[fi1980]

great report from the health nurse, Leila is doing just wonderfully! She's 8.7kg and 72cm long and aside from the ear infection is a very happy, healthy little girl

[Rach75]

[Kazmar]

Rach- My mchn sends me a text the day before now as I always missed them
