OMG Georgi... SNAP!

as of today... I'm so excited! Both my PG's, I got PG straight away... so I'm thinking surely it won't be straight away this time... but omg what if? Anyways, I'll keep you all posted.
Gotta run now but will try & BBL

Hope everyone had a wonderful Xmas and Happy New Year!!!!

[Georgi]

OMG Belfie... I had no probs conceiving either. I have a feeling it may take a little longer this time as I'm not going to pressure DH into DTD this time I just haven't heard the end of it since last time lol. Are you going into the TTC 1-6mths thread? I've been in the pre ttc thread so I'm 'Crossing Over' tomorrow. Wow, i'm so excited we can share this together... Wowee..... I hope we can become belly buddies then baby buddies again, how cool would that be!

MOI - Glad your MRI results were ok... Sorry to hear you had another attack though. Boy, I hope you will see the end of it this year *hugs*

I forgot to mention I got a coffee machine for Chrissy... Mmmmmmm, having a cuppacino now, yummy!

Hey everyone it's like a sweat box in here so wont be long...

Georgi & Belfie GL with your TTC journeys... you guys must be excited.

I am still here and no little one to report as yet... i'm sure Moi will let you know as soon as there is anything to report anyway.
It's VERY hot here at the moment (36) and it's killing me... i'm ready for bubs to be here.

Ava had a friend over today and they went for a swim in the pool, DP's home and she seems to be enjoying his company.
She had an awesome x-mas and was VERY spoilt and has been enjoying drawing, playing with play doh and blocks etc. She pretends to talk to people on our mobiles and actually chats on the phone to our parents etc, she also talks to my midwife and has a chat with random strangers.
She runs everywhere, is into climbing everything and just wants to spend all her time outside, she rubs and kisses my belly but has no idea what she's in for.

Well best be off... over this heat and going to hide back in the lounge.

[Moi]

Happy New Year!!

I hope 2010 is a great year for everyone (and I hope one of good health for me!)

We invited a few people to our house last night cos it's harder to get out with Maya. We had a BBQ and sat around and chatted till midnight. It was nice, especially watching all the lightening!

Oh belfie and georgie how exciting TTC. Good luck with it all and I hope it doesn't take too long. I also conceived the very first time I tried (miscarriage) and then the second time we tried was Maya. I have no idea if it'll be that easy the second time. I'll be waiting to here pregnancy announcements. With Avasmum's baby there might be three new babies this year. I'm still hoping I'll be well enough in 2011 and that's when we'll try, or maybe towards the end of this year. I still worry if I'll be well enough to carry a second baby, but I sooooooooo want another one.

Georgi - I ended up having two attacks this week. Both not too bad compared to what I was having, but still not good. Yes I am very much hoping maybe 2010 is the year I get well again!

Avasmum - Yes the heat has been hard. So glad it's cooler today. Waiting for news of Zara. I guess she wanted to be a 2010 baby.

[Moi]

Zara Grace was born yesterday (6/1/10) at 11:08pm. Birth announcement here.

Congratulations Leah! So happy for you and your family and glad that everything went well.

[belfie]

oooh wow, that's great news! Thanks for letting us know!

Moi - happy new year to you too! Glad you had an nice BBQ at home, but sorry to hear about the increased attacks! Re the m/c, you, me and Georgi all had m/c's in Oct 07, isn't that weird.

We've been busy TTC and we're in the 2WW now. It's doing my head in, so cross your fingers for me lol. X has just gone off to FDC for the first time today! It feels very weird sitting here at home without him! I think he'll settle in well though . I've had 2.5 weeks of hols and we have been flat chat... catching up on some big household chores (anyone wanna do some painting? ) and bookkeeping. It's so sad, we had one designated "holiday" day! I'm doing a huge effort to catch-up on 2 years of being unorganised/behind with my bookkeeping... wanna do that before I'm UTD again. So been working nights, weekends... everthing ah well, it'll be worth it. And I'm just so relieved that we've got a bit more care for X now, should ease the pressure, and I reckon he'll love it.

He's not really walking yet... takes about 4 steps max, and shuffles on his knees the rest of the time lol, lazy boy reckons it's easier that way! Otherwise, he's just as cute as a button, waves at us and grins - cheeky fella!

Hope you all had lovely Xmases and New Years with your little cherubs & mischief-makers!

Cheers,
Belfie

Very quiet in here.

belfie - Hopefully some good news soon. Glad to hear X's day at FDC went well. Maya still isn't walking either but wants to walk all day holding on to my hand. I'm so sick of walking with her all day long, because it gives me a sore back. Everyone sees her walking holding on to me and says "oh not long till she's walking". I have heard that for MONTHS now. I have no idea when it'll happen.

I've been trying to encourage Maya to walk on her own, between me and someone else and by letting go of her hand when she's headed towards something. She walks fine, but just won't take the initiative on her own and often gets annoyed with me for making her walk without my hand.

Maya is getting another tooth at the moment. She hasn't been too out of sorts luckily.

I've been attack free since the last ones I mentioned. I've been feeling a bit wobbly though, which isn't nice. But I am hoping I am finished with attacks forever now. I had some more tests done last week and get the results this week. I think they will just confirm Menieres, but good to rule out other things.

I am still planning on trying to go back to work at the end of Jan and I am starting to freak out now cos it's only a couple of weeks away! I enrolled M into CC last week. I'm both excited and nervous about her going to CC. I really like the centre though. They are very flexible with sleeps, eating, etc and everyone seems so happy and friendly. Plus it's a small place which I think is nice too. I just hope M likes it. She starts orientation this week.

Hello to everyone. I hope you are all well.

[teruteru]

We are officially TTC as of tomorrow so i'll make the ticker change then.

We've been busy TTC and we're in the 2WW now.
X has just gone off to FDC for the first time today! It feels very weird sitting here at home without him!

oh wow, there's a few of us TTC here, us too

georgi: good luck! im not familar with charting but it all seems too complicated to follow.

belfie: im not too familiar with the 2WW but i 'think' AF is due on 17th so we'll see what happens. but im still BF'ing so i dunno...as for X going to FDC, he was fine right?! I remember the 1st day i sent D to CC i was so lost and I actually had a break-down at the centre right after i dropped him off i still get like that 3 mths down the track but his CC days are my work days so i've learnt to deal with it but he never goes down quiet...

hope everyone had a great christmas and a great new year

May 2010 bring many new beginnings and challenges

[1MOREPLZ]

been a while since i have posted in here
hi everyone

not much happening here....no TTC here just yet...am on the weightloss train and we are going to commence our 2nd cycle of IVF at the end of the year...we are also buying our first home around June/july and then we will start with the IVF in NOV/DEC for bubba #2 (#4) then i will give up work next year

big congrats to avas mum

[Moi]

Avasmum - I hope you are getting enough sleep!

teru - ohh.. good luck with TTC too. I'm worried about M crying when being left at CC so my DH is going to drop her off. It makes more sense for him to do it anyway, because it's on his way to work. And that way I won't have to hear her cry when I leave.

Katones - Maybe we'll be pregnant around the same time then.

Three mothers from my MG are already pregnant again.

M is getting another two teeth. She's still not walking.

I got some test results today that confirmed that I have Meniere's (which I was sure of anyway but I guess good to rule out a couple more things). The results also showed that my ear is doing a bit better in one way but still not normal. So I guess that's a good sign. I just hope it continues to get better.

I also talked to this specialist about trying to get PG again and he said that there are a few things we could try to help me get off the medications. Don't know if it'll work or not though, but at least there are things I can try still. So hopefully next year I can try again!

[belfie]

I have a little announcement to make!



OMG OMG OMG! (and yes, I'm a dufus who didn't check the due date before trying cos I didn't think I'd get PG the first month I tried... so the due date is the day after X's b'day!).

(Pls keep this quiet on FB of course.)

[SamiH]

WOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTTTTTTT - that is fantastic news hunny - congratulations to you both - how exciting - poor X though, no birthday party to be planned on his day huh LOL.

I will keep stalking to see how you are going .... I am so happy for you, more exciting times ahead.

XXXX Kisses and hugs from us all

[~ Zarava Flutterby ~]

CONGRATULATIONS BELFIE.... how exciting.
Hopefully they have separate birthdays but still close together, save cash on parties

Hi everyone, we are going pretty well at the moment, not too much lack of sleep which is great and Ava seems be be getting a little closer each day, sussing her out.
She got in the baby bath with Z last night and tried to wash her, it was so cute.

Hope everyone is coping with the HEAT, we have slept in the lounge the last 2 nights.
Ava slept on her Dora couch and didn't even wake to Z which was great, last night she ended up in with us but i think that was the change in room temp.

Coming home from hosp A seems so much bigger, i wonder what they fed her while i was gone.. you go from holding this tiny bundle to someone usually considered small and there is still such a MASSIVE difference.
She looks older i think and she knows who Zara is, you ask wheres Zara and she looks at her, if Z cries she points at the bassinete.

Well thats all from me for now.

a huge thanks to MOI for being my p.i.g it means a lot to me and thanks for your messages after Z was born...
So glad you have someone who is willing to look at TTC again, i hope it all works out , i'm sure it will.

[csab]

A huge hello to everyone else, will catch up soon.

Sorry for not posting much, have been quite busy. Looking forward to school going back.
Anyway a quick update - V had her dietician appt yesterday got weighed in her clothes and was 7kg length was 70cms, She was quite happy with V's progress, and she is looking at having just one more visit from us at the end of March and if all is well with V then we wont need to come and see her anymore, so that will be one less person to see. So happy about that.
I hope everyone had a Wonderful christmas and New Years. Take care.

[csab]

Zarava - I wanted to say congratulations on the birth of Zara, she sounds so beautiful. Little Ava is going to be such a wonderful big sister. Congratulations again hun, enjoyt that beuaitulf bundle of yours. hugs

[Moi]

Congratulations belfie! I'm so happy and excited for you!! And LOL on the due date. Though X came early didn't he? So maybe this bub will too.

Zarava - I love your new name. So glad to hear things are going well and that A is loving her sister. I know what you mean about our toddlers seeming bigger. I've seen a few newborns lately and M suddenly seems a lot bigger and older to me. Oh and I was very happy to be your PIG. Plus I got something out of it too.. I got to find out the news before others and see a picture of Z!

Csab - So good to hear V is doing so well. I'm still waiting for M to reach 8kgs so I can turn her car seat around!! We have another paed appointment in early Feb, so I'll get her weighed then.

Hello to everyone else.

This afternoon Maya is having her first orientation at CC. It's just for an hour today and with me there too. They want to see if they can get M playing on her own or with one of them. I say GL to them cos M is still so attached to me and scared of strangers. It will be interesting to see how she goes today.
