Jan/Feb/Mrch 2012 Momies to Be

Hi ladies

Sjoe it is so HOT I could not sleep last night. How is everyone holding up with this insane heat?

Juandre, Well done on your 97%!! That is great! Glad M is sleeping better. My little one has never stopped kicking yet. Still very active, but terribly sore. Especially those turns you mention. Then it looks like a ruby ball in my tummy. hehe In this heat I would not want to cover books uuugh. Even though I like doing them.

Ashleigh - It must be great to have a kid that actually wants to go to school. Haha. Haha shame! Poor hubby! They can be real sqeamish sumtimes

Angi - I am also drinking the jungle juice now. Great for energy as it seems I have none only six weeks to go!!!!

Great weight VIsion - I was suppose to go for my app today, but I am stuck at home because hubby can't take me. uggh

Ilse not so long for you anymore too!!

And cookie did not pop yet?

Hope Everyone thats had their babies are doing well.

AFM: So I will be going for my next app on thursday 26 Jan. The I have my C-section on monday 30 Jan. AAAAhhhh cannot wait. Anyhoo

Hello Ladies

I'm really worried about how Zaylee's is going to handle the new addition to the family. She is still so young. She will only be 15 months when baby is born. do you ladies think she actually really understands when we tell her there is a baby in my tummy?
Zelf - how is Janu adjusting? He is about the same age as Zaylee.

Juandre- congrats on passing with such a great mark! We are also not sleeping much at the moment. We are trying to get Z to sleep through the night in her room. we have not been successful so far. She wakes up, sits up and notices where she is then wont go to sleep unless she is in our room. Hopefully these kiddies of ours will start sleeping better soon.
This baba also doesnt really kick. It feels as if she is doing summersalts in my tummy.

Ilse and Vision - your LO are nice weights. im glad they are doing so well.

Angi - The last few weeks are really challenging. I really feel as if i can not stretch any more. And baby has her feet or knees in my ribs. And Im really suffering with heartburn.

Im basically 98% prepared for the home birth. Will be seeing the midwife tomorrow at femina. then next week they will be coming to my house to have a look at everything. I sat and wrote my birth plan yesturday. Gave it to hubby to read last night. The only thing he wasnt happy about was the part of him helping to catch the baby. He doesnt feel that he will be able to handle that. He is happy with just cutting the cord.

I hope Muareen and mummoo and babies are doing well. we havent heard from them in a really long time. So ladies if you are reading, just give a quick short message to let us know that are all ok.

Ruan started Gr R today. He couldnt wait to get there and get the day started!

Juandre meant to say WELL DONE on passing your exam - wow 97% is just awesome

I am sure a few moms have had their babies like Maureen and Mumaroo... cant wait to hear about it.

Vision my next appointment is 1st February at 32 weeks, I cant wait!!!
These last 8 weeks are going to go so slowly, especially in this heat

Last night Shiloe came hoem with 3 more books to cover- I was not amused as well as homework. McKeilagh does not allow me to spend time with Shiloe without her being involved so homework time is so difficult. And now I am going to add a third child to the mis, some days I think I am mad.

Morning All

Went for my check up today and Leah is doing terrific - she is healthy and happy in mommys tummy She weighs 1.6kg as per the scan. My Dr. said she will probably be small like her sister. Rebekah was 2.7kg at 40 weeks when she was born.
He showed me the 4d version of her and she is so cute - she was sleeping with her hand infront of her face I am now on appointments every 2nd week.

Angi I am also battling to sleep and to breathe. I am so claustrophobic as it is and this battling to breath is killing me really feels like I cant get enough air... wow only 6 weeks to go - I hope the time flys by for you

Juandre I always use to make my older sister do it - she did it so nicely and actually enjoyed it. I am dreading the going to big school days when we have to cover books Good to hear MG is still sleeping well! when is your next appointment?

Ilseross the 3rd of February is just around the corner - wow so little time to go for you!!!

Amanda thank you very much for that advice - I really want to do it right so bekah doesnt feel left out and unloved. Cant believe if you waited until your due date Vica would only be 3 days old - feels like she has been with us forever Hope you are coping with your 2 kiddies at home

I wonder if Maureen has had her baby?

Morning ladies,

Angi- you can take it during pregnancy for energy and then from the moment you get home from hospital.

My LO's movements have become painful. Its like baby isnt kicking so much as rolling around. Sometimes baby lies on one side of my tummy and makes it all distorted.

So M is sleeping thro until 3.30am, she comes to our room where either DH or myself take her back to bed and she then sleeps until 5.30am. Problem is we then battle to fall asleep again but at least she is sleeping better than she was. Those two weeks were horrid.

Annie your LG is gorgeous...

Juandre thanks for recipe, from when can a person drink it...sounds like a lot of marking work when your kids go to school...

Vision thanks re the name we were thinking of changing it to Izandre but after seeing what Izelle ment we knew it was the right name for her...how you keeping up...

Carol how's your LB enjoying school...not to long to go hun till ur bundle is here...

AFM: can't believe I have 6 weeks over till Izelle is finally here, may these 6 weeks fly by...battling to sleep at night and can't sleep propped up on pillows on my back coz my lower back has been killing me lately, feels like izelle has made herself comfy by my lungs battle to breath, I neva believed when people said the 3rd trimester esp the last weeks are the worst but they were so right...going to do the last few things needed for izelle and myself next week and then I can wash all our goodies and get our bags packed and wait for 28 feb...
