Katones - So sorry Jack is having a hard time with the infections, maybe an Op is for the best. Let us know how he is doing. Woohoo for November.
Moi - Sorry to hear Maya is still unwell, its worrying isnt it when they are so petite already and they turn off food etc. You just want some fat on their little bodies to help. V got over her Flu, but now she has it back again worse than last time. My other DD's have it too, which is how she got it. Sending lots of get well vibes your way hun for little Maya.
Zarava - Goodluck with your move on the weekend. I so dont eny you right now getting the fluid drained from your knee. OMG cant imagine how painful that would be. After having that done, you would hope they find something. How are your little princess going?
Teruteru - Yay congratulations on having a bubby boy. Woohoo. As well as another October bub.
Belfie - Gee you lot are having a rough trot of things, sending lots of hugs your way. Enjoy the redecorating of the Z & A's rooms rooms, I love the name Annika, so pretty. hugs
Georgi - How cute BJ trying to count to 10. V used to try and say the abc's. She would go abcd then back to a again. hehehe. She hasnt done it for a little while though. I feel for you with all that MS. hugs
Well have three sick kids at home, all with the flu and Little V is one of them. I have been dreading this time of year, just hoping like crazy V doesnt get too bad like she did last yr. The 3 of them were due to have their second swine flu injection this weekend so it doesnt look like they will be getting that done. V's new word she likes to say is You bugger!!!! Or if she dirtied herself she looks at herself and says Ewwww bugger!!!! lol. Well by my LMP I am due 31st Decmber, by the first U/S 5th January, but will continue to go by the 31st December.
Zarava - I hope they can work out why you are getting fluid in your knee! Could luck with all the packing and moving!
belfie - I just went out yesterday and bought some echinacea (I've been taking vit c and garlic tablets too!). I've never heard of andrographis. I just googled it and it sounds good. Where do you get it from? You sound like you're having a run like us. Here's hoping we're at the end of our illness run! I nearly passed out a couple of times when PG, so the fainting could be PG related? Your ILs sound very clueless. Can you ask them for help? ohh.. so you are revealing the name. I love the name Annika. There's a girl at work called Anneke, but I like Annika better.
Georgi - I definitely don't miss the MS. Mine was terrible when PG with M! Hope it passes soon! M is also starting to talk a lot more. She counts to three, but says two, two, three. Very cute.
csab - I'm sending some well vibes back (though I don't know if I have any well vibes to send at the moment. I hope none of your DD's get too sick and they all get well very soon!
M seems to be doing better today, so hopefully she'll go to CC tomorrow and Friday. But her nose is still running and she still has a cough. We have finished her course of ABs and she's eating well and is a happier girl again. Hopefully that's the end of it.. at least for a while! A break from illness would be nice!
M is ramping up her words suddenly. She tries to repeat words I say now and she's putting two words together at times. My favourite word of hers is pasta which actually comes out "Paapa". So cute!!
I keep meaning to ask if anyone else has problems cleaning their toddler's teeth? M hates having her teeth cleaned and will clamp her mouth tightly shut, so most days she doesn't get her teeth brushed at all! Sometimes she'll want to try to clean her teeth herself, but all she does is chew on the brush for a bit and then hands it back. Any ideas? I'm just worried about her getting cavities.
AFM I feel worse today. I've lost my voice! I'm thinking I'm going to have to miss work this week, which I feel bad about cos I missed work last week too!! I'm seeing a dr this afternoon so I'll see what she says.
Moi - how are you feeling hun, any better?
I find if i lay A down on the change mat after her bath i can brush them quickly and then she does it while i dress her, in the morning sit her infront of the mirror and show her me brushing mine then try and do hers quickly but it doesn't always work.
csab - is everyone feeling better? How cute... BUGGER....
Belfie - you poor thing, sometimes the IL's can suck, it's not that hard to offer to help, hope everything has settled down.
I love the name Annika, it's so cute and girly. Am sorting out the girls rooms today... argh!
Georgi - hope your feeling better and the MS is settling a bit.
AFM - had the aspiration on Friday and my knee felt HEAPS better but it's starting to ache again now so i give it 2 days and it will be swollen again, still no answers but have a review appt next mth.
She got just under 10mls out of my knee
Moved on Sunday and have so so much to unpack and do, it's CRAZY.. gotta complete the mail redirection forms, call places and change address... am sorting the girls rooms today though.
Better go.. Z is grizzling, ready for bed i think... then off to sort A's room.
Zarava - thanks for your comment on our girl's name I'm still so excited about it. It's getting hard to keep it a secret (only BB knows) but hopefully we can manage it! That's such a PITA re your knee, as for 10mls out of it... yeeeeouch! Such a nuisance when you're running around after 2 little ones AND moving house! Hope the unpacking is going well.
Moi - I think I got the andrographis from a normal pharmacy, pretty sure that Blackmores makes one, plus some of the standard other brands. I hope you're feeling better, I have my fingers crossed for both of us!! And yes, re the name it's BB only - soooo long to keep it a secret, I hadn't planned on deciding on a name so soon, but it's the way we seem to work. Did it with X too. That's so cute re M's talking, X is a bit behind with his (typical boy lol). Re teeth cleaning he's pretty similar. Just kinda chews on it, but lets me do a little brush sometimes.... I need to work at that a bit more!
CSAB - I hope little V is ok, I'm sending her the healthy vibes (that none of us have, haha!). I remember how scary it was for you last winter, so just praying that can be avoided. What an awesome EDD you have, teheh that's great. How are you feeling?
Georgi - how are you feeling? I really hope the m/s has improved, it really is the pits. I'm SO with you on the "never again" bit.
AFM, I've got a new avvy, woo hoo! DH was too funny, he wanted to know if he still looks "super-buff" in the avvy hahaha. Plus I managed to get the IL's to babysit last sat arvo and X slept for 3.5 hours!!!! I'm like, wtf, they didn't have to do anything! But then they cooked us dinner too... so we booked in for a repeat this arvo as well. Last weekend was rushing around doing errands that HAD to be done (ordering furniture)and this weekend we just chilled out. I had ONE day feeling ok (Friday) after trying to eat really well all week - so I rushed around (like an idiot) catching up on chores and indulged in some retail therapy tehehe (it was bliss!). But now I'm feeling totally crap again, foul sinuses and horrible dry cough all night. Think I'm gonna go to the doctors tomorrow, this is ridiculous. Think I've had 1 week and 1 day this PG where I've felt human, and I've had this cold (or is it more than 1?) for a month! But on the bright side, we've ordered some new drawers for our room, so X gets ours, and Annika gets his. So I'm just relieved I've got the furniture all sorted now, and it's ordered with enough time if anything goes wrong.
Hope everyone is having a good weekend and no-one else is sick anymore!
Zarava - I hope your knee improves and they can work out what's wrong. How are you settling in to your new place? We've finally seen a place we really like, but I am worried it'll go for higher than we can afford.
belfie - Love the new avi. So sorry to hear you are still sick (or sick again?) I hope it's all over now. Oh and Maya also just chews on her toothbrush. She refuses to let me brush her teeth. So I dunno if she'll end up with heaps of cavities.
AFM I ended up with the flu and not just a cold. I'm still getting over it now, but am pretty much back to normal. So I was sick for about 2 1/2 weeks! I did go back to work last week, after missing two weeks, but still felt a bit off.
M seemed to get over the flu and ear infection and then one night woke up at 2am and wouldn't go back to sleep till 4am. Just crying heaps!! (right when I was at my sickest too!). So I took her to the doctors the next day and found out she had an ear infection in both ears! So the first ear infection must not have cleared. Now she's on some super strong ABs for TWO weeks!! Then we go back to the doctor next week to make 100% sure it's all cleared up.
And on top of the ear infection her nappy rash is soooo bad from all the ABs she's been on lately! So the DR prescribed a cream for her.
She got over the flu and now has a runny nose again!! Arghhh.. so I think she has a new cold. It feels like she's forever sick at the moment.
I took M to the paed this week and she is now 9kgs! (well she was just below 9, but I'm rounding up. And the paed is so happy with her progress he doesn't want to see her any more. She's just a small girl and will probably always be that way.
I'm so busy with work at the moment (report writing time) I don't have time to get sick again!! So fingers crossed I remain well. I also made it to the dentist today for the first time in .. ahem.. 4 years. I've been having lots of pain and it's from my gums. So I have to get them cleaned under local anaesthetic. I've booked in for the first day of my holidays.
Will be back later but just had to say MY GOD these kids learn quickly, just went to get Z out of bed and go into the lounge and Ava is infront of the TV, she had taken a dvd OUT of the dvd player, put in a new one (right side up) and had the TV remote trying to change the channel.. WTF get back in your box child...
back later for personals just had to share... couldn't help but laugh at her
Thankyou for all the get well vibes especially when you all needed them too. They are all better, V still coughs every now and then but other then that all is good.
Zavara - Yay for the big move. Hows the unpacking going? How are the little ones liking the new house? hahaha how cute.
Belfie - Hope your feeling better, sending loads of get well vibes to you. Yay for having everything sorted with the furniture. It is an awesome date huh to expect bubs, but highly doubt they will let me have bubs that day or even in the new years, due to another c/s. I have a feeling it will be arranged for either the 21st, 28th December and maybe the 4th jan, yet I highly doubt they will let me go over to Jan. I believe they will do the earlier one. They dont want me going into labour due to a high risk of rupture. Yet still along way away yet. I so love the name you have chosen for your little princess, so cute.
Moi - Yay thats excellant that the pead doesnt want to see M anymore. V keeps hovering just under and sometimes just over the 8kg mark. She lost a little bit over the past couple of weeks from not feeling too well, turned off her food etc. We have the dietician appt in July so I am hoping they arent going to be disappointed with her progress. The pead isnt until I think Oct. Hopefully she would have gained a good amount of weight by that time.
Had my hospital appt yesterday, and well let me just say, I am sure V remembers her stay at hospital as as soon as we stepped foot in the doors she played up. Mind you we were there from 8am until 1.15pm. I was sooo exhausted by the time we got home. So not looking forward to future appt's if she is going to be soooo sooky.
Sending lots of get well vibes your way hun for little Maya.
