Jan/Feb/Mrch 2012 Momies to Be

Carol you made me laugh now...like I can see you walking...whistling into the air hoping nobody is following you and making a dash for it??? LMAO! Glad to know I wasnt the only one leaving the hospital in fear...ha ha

Haha Simone so weird! He also forgot the seat! I was trying to act all casual in front where we got my pain meds and then just quickly slipped out. Haha. I was so scared they would send security to stop me!

Showed up with 2 babygrows. The one was too small and the other one too big! Shame he was so tired and deurmekaar. I really gave him a hard time.

Shame atleast your halfday was spend well. Enjoy the scan!

Ashleigh- shamepies! Its so afwul to see then get hurt! And you cannot even take away the pain. Hope he enjoy his concert!

Hi ladies

Juandre are you feeling better today?

Carlene I also had a sudden appearance of MS again around 28-32 weeks. Last night I felt a bit nauseous, but managed to not puke, but in the preceeding 4 weeks I was puking horribly:( So perhaps for some of us MS does return. Didnt have it with first pregnancy though.

Carol so sweet of hubby to pack your bags....hope you'll be better prepared this time???lol. You know what my husband forgot to bring to hospital the day we were discharged??? Um...THE CAR SEAT!! I was so scared they wouldnt let me leave with my baby as they walk you to the car...lol. Felt like a criminal. Shame hubby was out shopping for a gift for me in his defence...but ya...MEN!

Vision we are having the weirdest weather this side....it doesnt go above 24/25 degrees. Still cool, overcast some days, etc. I think thats why Adddison also getting sick...hot one day, cold the next. PE is having CRAZY weather!

Zel thanks for info on cloud 9 mattress:) How did meeting go this morning??

Ashleigh hope Ruan enjoys concert.

So hubby called at 12:30pm yesterday to say that he lost his car keys at work and couldnt make it to take Addison to doctor. People did I drive! half an hour to get from work to home to the doctor...I assure you it is NOT a 30 minute drive on any normal day.lol.

Dh then found his keys and met me at doc after the appointment so he could take Addy home and I could return to work...madam was having none of it. She cried and clung to me. I felt so bad...so the half day I was taking today...I had to take yesterday instead. She wouldnt let me leave her side. The half day at work is nice...we get half day off every month....so counting down to my December half day now.

Anyways....so we all went for lunch at nandos and then did some shopping for pedestals to go with bed....so not a wasted half day:)

I'm good...have scan at 1pm...excited about that!! Will report back afterwards.

Jippie its friday!!

Im so glad its not boiling hot today. Just cant wait to to go home and start the weekend. It has been a long week.

Ruan has his school consert tomorrow, he's very excited. Shame I go and fetch him yesterday at school, his whole check and lip have has a huge graze on it. He was pushing his friend on his bike and he fell and landed on his face. His lip is swollen and you can see it is sore.

Zelf - How did go with the directors?

Cooki monster - I remember having that feeling at the end of my pregnancy, baby moving down to prepare for birth. Did you speak to your doc? How you feeling today?

Jaundre are you feeling better today?

Simone, we have been using the Cloud Nine matressess for a while now- and very happy! They are hard though- very good for your back.

And thanks for the ladies who asked - I have a meeting with the other directors tomorrow at nine re ML etc. Please think of me, I'm not too sure about the reaction I'm going to receive if I tell them I will not be able to work this time through my leave.

Have to take Ewan to swimming lessons now- so not feeling up to it! But a mom has to do what a mom has to do I suppose.

Enjoy this HOT afternoon ladies- I am really struggling in this heat-swollen, out of breath and no energy with BH contractions.(Sorry for the moan and groan)

cookie monster sounds like you are under alot of pressure at work. Cant you take a sick day? it is not because you are pregnant - pregnancy brings a lot of ailments! It doesnt sound normal to me - there should be some discomfort but not hectic pain?

Simone wow your husband is a serious romantic. LOL at moaning at him for buying flowers and then for not Sorry about Addison - it is strange that she is getting sick now? Sometimes they say that the sickness helps build immunity?

Ashleigh sorry about the back ache!

Zelf we miss you - hope you get through all your work sounds hectic for you at the moment!

carolsch shoo that is hectic to go to the doc and find out you in labour - lol at your dh having to pack the bags. I am sure quite a bit was missing

carlene sorry you are not feeling well! the nausea sucks especially when there are so many other things to battle with in the 3rd trimester

Juandre sorry you are feeling down - must be your hormones. Maybe you are having a boy and he is keeping you on your toes already hope you feel better!!!

maureeen I had to laugh when you said it is a good excuse being pregnant so you dont have to see the inlaws it will also be so nice for you to have some time to yourself.

agggghhhhh it is sooooo hot in JHB!!! I cant cope with the heat, feel like sleeping all the time!

Maureen, hehe, I havent been to a cinema in 8 years.haha. Won't even know how to buy a ticket. Must make a plan to go some time.

Heather, you must have a chat with your doctor. I remember I only used to feel a lot of presure down there, but no pain. Maybe you are a bit active or standing too much? So I think it is best to phone the doc. Better safe, hey. Take it easy at work! I hate it when people think you are trying to get out of work because you are pregnant. And even though you feel awful you stay and do your job because they make you feel like you are just acting. Stuff them. You take care of yourself, if the doc thinks you should get some rest hopefully he will book you off for a while.

Carlene -I am going to Cape GAte medi clinic - same as Amanda. And for some reason I started feeling nauseous since yesterday. Maybe its the heat. uuggh I hate this feeling. You can still take a bath?? hehe, I tried once about 2 months ago, but I couldnt really move alot. I am a shower person anyways so no more bathing for me! haha last time we went to the doc not realizing she was going to book me in at hospital as labour started. So hubby had to pack the backs. So shame listen to you hubby and pack those bags they forget half the stuff anyways

Juandre - hope you feel better soon!

simone - shame she just wants her mommy. Maybe it is just the weather or LO's can feel something is coming that is going to change.

Vision - The BH has gotten lighter. I think I just really overdone it that day. I also get out of breathe very easily. Our stairs at home are very steep. Some building error I think.

AShleigh - I take my hat of to you girls still sitting at work. My back is killing me too, but atleast I can go lie down if I wanted.

Amanda - Vica is 2weeks old already! hope you are doing well!
