Well we have been to the Royal Childrens Hospital this morning for Isabel's 4 mth needles she cried a little but not as bad as her last ones. I was much better too but I still had my DH come along just in case Isabel still has her cold and a really bad RED bottom don't know if it's from all her poos or cause she is starting to teeth
SW - Oh good luck with your move sweet, I'm sure that everything will run smoothly. I can't believe how quickly little Alyssa is moving around for you guys she is really wanting to get on the move hey lol.
Missy - I too have put a load of washing on hung it out and now getting ready to give the house a vacuum as it's very dusty (floorboards) I hope your day is better with little Liam.
Mel - I hope your DH gets better soon sweet.
Pixie - I can't remember but how long is the Bear away for?? My DH is leaving again tomorrow for Vietnam but will be home Sunday afternoon his last trip for the year woohoo....
Well better go Izzy is crying I have to go and give her the dummy again...BBL
Thanks for the advice regarding the rod.. my Dr wants me to wait 3 months and see what happens after that. Apparently I dont need it out for the IVF (thats what my Dr said and they have it on my file at the IVF clinic and they havnt said anything). I used to get the Depo injections every 3 months but didnt want to get that this time cause I feel pregnant with Laila so hopefully this rod sorts out soon cause its in for 3 yrs.
HAPPY 5 MONTHS Sebastian and Caleb!!!
Rach- Oh sorry hun I just got your PM, im so sorry I forgot
Tania- Yeah I know, I just keep telling DH that we will have the tupperware till we die LOL
Mel- Laila is trying to type while im typing its hard LOL
Mary- Yay on your DH going on his last trip for the year..id hate to have DH go away so much. I hate been here of a nighttime by myself with the kids LOL.
Kellxx- Lucas has abit of cradle cap today aswell, might go lather him up.
Hmm xmas pressies.. Laila: Cubbyhouse, Swingset with slide, sand pit, another bike, a Dorothy rocker (like a rocking horse but its dorothy), one of the rocker things (forgot what they are called) for the outside where someone is on either end. Um I dont think I will buy her anything else from us cause she will get heaps off family
Lucas Fisher price activity table, Fisher price drums that play music, baby seat for the swing, clothes so far.
Awww well havent done any ironing as my friend just left..grrrrr I was so set for ironing...well both kiddies in bed and now will try and get some done.
Happy 5 months Sebastian and Caleb!!!
I can't believe they're 5 months already.
Kristy - Good luck with the photos. I hope your little man slept in the car and was in a great mood for the photos.
Kell - Do you only treat Keira's cradlecap when it gets really bad? Bubbablue has a little bit now. It comes and goes. I don't usually do anything about it. I don't know if I should be or not. Lol. Does doing something about it help it get better faster???
Zee - I hoe the rod goes alright. I was thinking of getting one of those one time but I heard loads of bad things about it and plus my own doctor couldn't do it for me, so it turned me off. How's the IVF road coming along?
Pixie - Enjoy your walk. I hope today's weather is good for it.
Missy - I hope today is better with Liam. You can come and do my folding and all that jazz if you like. Yeah, DS1 loves the outdoors, so that's gives some ideas for us. Yuck! I hate ironing, so I never hardly do it. We haven't even bought an iron yet. LOL
SW - You've got a little mover on your hands! Sounds like she's dying to get around by herself. So cute.
Mel - I hope your DH gets better soon. Lol @ your DS.
Mez - YAY! I'm glad your DD was good for her needles. I drag my DP along with me for all our immunisations. I can't handle it by myself. Bubbablue was really good with his last week. Even better then the first lot. He wasn't even unsettled or need any panadol this time either which was suprising cause his legs hurt alot the first time. Woohoo for this being your DH's last trip of the year!!!!
Thanks for replying about what you're buying your kid(lets).
I made DP give me ideas so it wasn't just all me thinking of stuff like usual, and even then he still wasn't much help. He mostly just playing poker online while I made suggestions.
Finally my whingy little man is sleeping.
He's been fighting sleep ever since he woke up this morning. Hopefully he'll sleep for most the afternoon too.
Tan, Tasia, Belle, Sweetpea, Feeb, and everyone else.

Thankyou for the warm welcome, I have been reading but have not had time to reply to everyone seperatly.
It is nice to see everyones bubs doing realy well.
Reaghan has had two off nights in a row where she has woken between 3-4 and taken an hour to feed and settle again. Hopefully it is just a phase and she gets back to sleeping threw for me.
On the Chirstmas present front, I have not brought alot, as my two older ones go to thier dad this year. So they have some clothes and pj, knitting sets each both into that. Beados for my 5 yr old. And dig a dinasour for my 8 yr old. Reaghan is getting the girls old toys form when they were young as I still have then so going to give them a clean and wrap them up. (cheap scape me).
Dh and I a getting concrete slab done for our pergola or each other for xmas.
We had santa pics done on monday you can see it on facebook!! Jacob refused to sit as he wanted to stand in jump instead Lol!!! He has always loved standing on for about 8 weeks can push himself to standing while holding our fingers!
we have been pretty good, having a rather trying few hrs in evenings when he just screams hipitched!!!
Kristy good luck with pics!! HAPPY 5 MONTHS BOYS!
MEZ woo hoo on dh last trip!! mine has possibly 3 more trips to go 2 sydney 1 maybe hong kong.
misy well done on housework i neeed to do a heap!!
Missy: Hope you finally got your ironing done....I haven't touched my iron since I was working I think, I hate ironing! It hasn't rained here yet so its probably time I got the clothes off the line, on the radar it showed that it went just past Bundy so I don't think we'll get any at all.
SW: Glad its you and not me with a mover haha
Mez: YAY for Isabel being so good for her needles, I thought they weren't meant to get them if they had a cold though?? I could be wrong though.
Sweetpea: Ashlea has woken at 3-4 the last 2 mornings too although she has fed and fallen asleep within 20-30mins...wonder if its a growth spurt??
Ashlea had a bit of a temp last night (37.6) so I was thinking she is just waking cause of a cold or something. I gave her dymadon but she spat most of it out.
I better go settle Ash, she just woke up but is still really tired.
Hey folks .... had a nice walk this morning! Bit overcast so nice and cool but it didn't rain. Then went to the shops to buy a nappy bag and some new pj's for little miss. Agreed to go to a pump class on monday with some of the MG girls so that will be a bit cause I haven't done a pump class before.....
Missy my bro and his g/f were in town for a little while they live in mission beach qld and also in canada - they have a house in each place, so I don't see them that much.
Zee no worries hon, when you have a chance! meant to say that the Bear's best friend is from Young so we have been there a few times to visit him at his Mum's place... we had Christmas in July there this year.
Mez the Bear is only away till Friday bummer about your DH going to Vietnam so soon, but yay that its the last trip of the year!
SW - OMG I can't believe Alyssa's on the move already! Beth hasn't quite worked out how to get around but you can see she is frustrated over it!
Tan = Beth did that a couple of times in a row and then went back to sleeping through so not sure if she wasn't well or just having a growth spurt
Anyway guess I'd better go do something useful while DD is asleep! to Mel, sweetpea, feeb and everyone else
Ooh I forgot to mention, my LC called me yesterday and left a msg to say she wanted to talk to me about something. I called her back and she has asked (again) if I would speak with her ante-natal class about breast feeding! I said no last time but then felt bad so this time I said yes! I am so nervous though I hate talking in big groups, hopefully its a small group and she said they will ask me questions and I just have to answer them which will be easier.
Pix: woohoo on the pump class!
I better go do something too, Chris will be home in 40mins and both kids are asleep.
Tenny/Zee/Tannis.. no i usually treat it when it comes up.. that way it doesnt get too bad and is easy treated and gone. Hers is gone from that one application of sorbelene last night. I just lather it on and leave it for a few hours. Then washed it off with the J&J Top To Toe (use whatever you wash their hair with) and kinda gently scrubbed (while shampoo was in) with a face washer.. washed it off.. then just towel dried it and its all gone. Same worked for Jesse. His was a little worse and i think i had to do it twice but works a treat.
Ok gotta shower the boy, we're running a bit behind today.. BBL
Thanks ree the twins being 5 months. its just gone too fast.
Tannis- you will do fine, you won't need to do a speach i wouldn't think maybe just talk about your experiences and let them ask questions, as you said.
we had a great day with kell today, we met another friend we know (not a BB member) and played in a play centre for a few hours. had a great time, Isaac was exhausted and is sound asleep.
Ok will try and catch up while Jesse's playing with his cars and Keira's on her mat.
Tannis.. oh nice and how cute. I wish i could have those lay in mornings with my kids. DS rises at the crack of a sparrows fart.. so i hear "mummmmy... muummmmyy".. and he wont just come into bed with me.. wants to get up getting some milk and watch Sporticus (Lazy Town) Have fun at the xmas party! Oh wow re the presentation! How interesting! When will that be? Hows Ash today poor pet.
Kristy.. i dont say it enough.. but thanks for being there for me. You know, if i didnt have you to go out with all week, i think my anxiety may also be depression.
Pixie.. um.. whats pump class? Like aerobics? What nappy bag you get?
Feeb.. oh Jacob's santa photo is so cute! Look at those strong legs!!
Sweetpea.. oh hope she gets back into her routine soon. I know, when my DS or even Keira wake during the night, just that broken sleep knocks you around hey.
Tenny.. oh i know its hard.. and i think only gets harder as they get older.. and more expensive! Keira is at that age where its hard to know what to buy for too. Jesse just stuff he can physically play with is whats the hit atm.. things for outside.
Zee.. oh ok re the rod. I wonder if it works like the pill though. When i went to see my doc about mine the other day she told me you dont ovulate on the pill, as it causes your body to not let them mature or create. So i wonder how or when they would get your eggs? interesting stuff!
Mez.. oh good girl izzy with her needles! Could be her teething causing her red bum. Jesse use to get the worst nappy rashes when teething. I found Lucas's Papaw Ointment the best stuff for it.
Missy.. aint you getting very christmasy with your colours! i love it!
Mel.. hope your DH gets better soon and you guys dont get it.
Oh hmmm.. i dont want to say it too loud cos im not happy about it! lol.. well in a sense.. Keira is starting to crawl. What the hell is she thinking!!!!!!!!!!! She gets on her stomack, leans on her arms, lifts her bum, up on her knees and pushes forward. So like commando crawling. I was telling DH last night to stop her cos i really dont want her crawling... not yet.. shes not even bloody 4 months old. What am i going to do with all of Jesses toys!!!
Ok.. washing machine is beeping at me.. the bottles are in the sink soaking and need to be washed.. going to make some muffins today mmmmmmm.. Jesse doesnt want to eat breaky and stinks like poop so i think i better get crackin.. BBL
Awwww well another sh&t night. Liam is just screaming the house down. I think he is getting 1 tooth but cant be sure. I can see like a dot on the bottom left side in the front. I cant think of anything else it could be. Maybe he wants a bottle too but dont really want him going back the having a bottle in the night as ill be starting him on solids soon. Is that slack of me?????????????????????
Yes Kell im am very xmasy. You wait till I finish this post. lol. Oh boy on Keira crawling. wtf IS she thinking. Oh but clever girl. She is so sweet.
Tenny I never liked Ironing before and never did it untill we needed it but Ive started doing it and watching DVD's and Its not to bad. No thanks but you can come do my folding soon as im sure it will be back to heaps soon...lol
Sweatpea I think our kids are planing it. Maybe she is teething too or just wanting cuddles. Its hard when you dont know what is wrong. I hope they settle real soon.
Feeb love the piccy hun. Just beautiful. I cant wait to get mine done. Im getting them done saturday week as im going away this weekend and want to go to my regular santa. He looks so real.
Tannis hun...lol@ you and no Iron. What happens if you really need to wear some thing that is not iron'd. Just dont wear it....lol...
Pix hun isnt the pump classes really hard and fast and all that...sheeeesh girl your game....lol..im starting the gym with a friend soon. She works at a school and they have a gym and is getting it for only $8 a week. So im her sister...lol
kristy just love the photos hun. The boys are just soooooooooooo cute in there nappies.
Well have to do a make up lesson for callum at swimming at 11am so better get moving...
Hi belle, zee, mary, bear and anyone else ive missed
Hope everyone is having a good morning. Just as I thought I had cought up an all the washing dd#2 threw up all over her bed and floor so have spent the morning washing that and trying to clean the carpet.
Reaghan had a better sleep last night which was good she went to bed at 8pm woke at 11 for a feed and then slept till 6 (only woke then becuase of DD#2 coming in to tell me she had been sick). I figured out why her sleep was off a bit got dam af again, I looked back at the last time she started waking and it was when af came. So now I know to lookout for it and understand she gets crumpy then.
Tannis, maybe it is another growth spurt, she did manage to sleep from 1130pm-7am last night so hopefully that means she is heading to sleeping well again. I hope Ashlea is better now hun.
Kellx: she slept better last night but I was woken by my dd#2 at 6am saying she had been sick all over her bed. Can't win either way.
Missy: I have had to resort to feeding bub again in the night she was going from 8pm-7am but now having to feed atleast once in that time, I don't mind if it is at 9 or 10pm but at 3 or 4 in the morn that just stuffs me.
Missy - Maybe Liam is getting teeth. I'd be the same about giving Bubbablue a bottle in the nighttime now. I'm definately not going back to that. When are you thinking about starting solids?? I almost got some farex yesterday, but didn't. In a way I want to start feeding him it, but then I don't wanna cause then I have to admit he's gorwning too fast. :P
Tan - I hope Ash is better today. Have a great time at the christmas party!
Kell - I might lather up Bubbablue before his bath tonight, it might help get rid of it completely. DS1 hardly even got cradlecap so I wasn't sure if I should just leave it or not. YAY (but then not YAY for Keira starting to do the commado crawl thingie.
Pixie - I'm glad your walk went great. Good luck with the pump class. I've never done anything like that before but one day I'd like to aswell as finding someone to go with me. lol.
Sweetpea - I hope your DD2 is feeling better. It's always the way with the washing, just when you've caught up something always happens and the washing is back to double again.
Kristy - Fantastic photos! You look amazing and your boys look so so handsome. I don't know how you get them to co-operate like that. I have trouble with mine, mostly DS1 though. Lol.
Feeb - I love your Santa photo on FB! Jacob looks adorable. Love his outfit! Bubbablue is all about standing while holding our fingers too. Is Jacob rolling over?
everyone else. I hope you're all doing great and have a fabulous day.
We're all sick here now. DS1 managed to spread it to all of us. Bubbablue had a restless night and is all stuffed up + cough. But he slept in till I thought I'd wake him at 10.
DP is home sick from work with it, and I've got it too. The thing is DP doesn't do anything while he's sick except moan and groan, where as me I have to do everything. I don't even complain like he does. What is it with men. They're practically dying when they have the smallest little sniffle.
What makes it worse MIL called just before so he was acting sicker then he has been around me.
Anyways, I'm making a cake. Nothing fancy just a Golden butter cake. It smells yummm.
I shouldn't be eating cake, but what the hell.
I read through but have pretty much forgotten what everyone has said LOL
Tenny- IVF is going great guns atm, we have our group session Monday then I will start on meds etc.. I have to give myself injections eeek.
Missy- Hun did you do something to your house? I know the fence is new but did you change near the door or the windows?? Lucas also is having some farex..seems to be getting abit more settled with it.
Rach- OMG a guy was like that here.. wouldnt leave any leaflet and wouldnt go even though I was telling him that he would have to talk to DH about it and DH is at work so I just shut the door in his face
Lucas got weighed about 2 weeks ago and he was 6.38kgs so I was happy with that.
Still have AF another 11 days and ive had it for 2 months straight, it looks like I have been bashed cause I have bruising everywhere from DD, DH just touching me.
Sorry i know poor effort but I have done stuff all today apart from read a new book I got so I have to clean clean clean cause I wanna watch the xfiles movie with DH tonight (big x-files fan here LOL)
Mel - Fabulous stats. She's going to be a talk one!! I just measured DS1 at the doctors and he's already at 115cm. I'm a bit cause he'll be gigantic compared to me, just like his daddy, butttt then again tall guys are hottttt! :P
Pixie - That's great about the Bumbo. I'm glad she loves it. I think Bubbablue might love it too. Hopefully I can get one somewhere. We don't do the checkup dealio thing here really either. I really should go get him weighed this week... depends what I feel like on friday.
Zee - Ouch re: injections. I don't know if I could do it. I'm pretty good with the bsl testing but that's only on my fingers, anywhere else and I think I'd be a real sook. I hope it all goes fantastic. Have you gone and seen someone about your bleeding? Are you bruising just from being touched?
I've been so up and down lately. I've been worrying flatout and then thinking it's me that's the bad luck and everything is going to turn bad cause I'm around. Ugh.
Then I'll snap out of it and be ok with things. It's been quite bad the last few days.
I really don't know what's going on with me and my head. Any ideas? Is it normal?
We just got home from the doctors. We took Bubbablue there to get his rash/spots thing checked out. They've been there since Sunday morning but they'd come and go. Sometimes they'll be red and really noticeable, then they'd fade and only just be seen.
I was freaking out about it today. Turns out it's just a viral rash, related to his cold.
I didn't know you could get anything like this. It's all new to me. It's such a huge relief it wasn't anything serious!
HAPPY 5 MONTHS CALEB & SEBASTIAN
Isabel still has her cold and a really bad RED bottom don't know if it's from all her poos or cause she is starting to teeth
its hard LOL
Tan, Tasia, Belle, Sweetpea, Feeb, and everyone else.
cause I haven't done a pump class before.....
