Jan/Feb/Mrch 2012 Momies to Be

Hi Ladies,

I am so low at the moment. I am so very tired, emotional and moody . I am even insecure and I am not an insecure person, ever!

Anyway I did a full day of training yesterday at Ethekwini Municipality. I wish I could say it would change the service delivery but these ppl just dont care. My ankles were so swollen last night after training all day.

My next gynae app is the 7th Dec and my 4D scan (it comes free when you book your bed at the Life Hospital I am going to) is on 11th January. It all seems so far away.

Hope you are all well!!!

Vision I have been struggling with being out of breath. Its as if I have run a race... I think baby is squashing my lungs. Its a terrible feeling.

Maureen wat is your hubby and Jamie going to do in CT? You must enjoy your alone time.

I'm so uncomfortable just cant seem to get comfy today. My back is killing me.

Ash - I have everything now, anything I get from here on out is a bonus! Baby's room is sorted! Although we might be moving on the 15th of January! So don't really know, will have to wait and see! At least it is done, and it is just a matter of moving everything before the 27th of January when I am scheduled for my C-section!

Vision - today is 4 weeks then we close for the year then I am officially on leave! So I can't wait anymore.

This weekend I am home alone, Jamie and DH are off to Cape Town on Saturday morning, so I am going to relax. I am going to spend my Saturday just watching movies! Going to an actual Cinema! I can't wait! It has been to long!

Morning Ladies

Maureeen so good to hear that you took the day off and got so spoilt by your mom - that is so wonderful of her. I dont blame you for being so tired - not only do you work long hours but you sit in traffic for ages and have a toddler to take care of. Hope you start to feel better soon - so nice that your leave is coming up!

Zelf thanks for the lovely congrats - always love your gender pics No name yet - I have a few I like but cant decide... When are you speaking to your directors re: your leave?

Simone lol at the hard work to keep it looking good It is amazing how long it is - she looks like such a little madam, I can just picture saying the funning things you tell us about.
I am very short so the weight sits in my legs and waist... WOW your DH is so romantic - well done to him you deserve it!!! Im glad to hear that the nosebleeds are normal - I got a fright

Carolsch I weighed 55kg when I fell pregnant with my 1st LG and then picked up 15kg. I got back down to 57kg/58kg I read in my preg book that the 6th month you pick up lots of weight amazing how hard it is to lose weight and keep it off after you have kids hey??? How are you feeling? Any more hectic braxton hicks?

Carlene wow that is awesome that your gynae is so reasonable. My featal scan was R900!! So lovely that you guys had a picnic - so sweet that your LG requested it

Chubbychick I understand how you feel - I am going to a wedding on the 11th of December and I have NOTHING to wear either and its not like there is nice stuff for pregnant woman in the shops. Hope you have a great time!

Angi how are you feeling?


Do you ladies have times where you feel out of breath even if you are sitting down. I am claustrophobic and it drives me crazy. I sit and take deep breaths and it feels like I just cant get enough air!

Good morning all,

Vision, congrats on your little girl!

Amanda - Im so glad its going better with Vica.

Maureen - So nice that you were able to get nice pics of Reagan. I cant wait for my baby shower so that I can also go buy the rest of the things that I will need. Do you have everything now? Is the baby's room done yet?

Zelf - What did you arrange regarding you ML. The last I can remember you still needed to talk to your bosses about it.

Carlene - A picnic , What a great idea Emma had. Thats something we do way to little of. and its such a nice way to spend quality time together.

It feels like its going to be a long day at work today AGAIN. Its really been quiet this week here. I got so much to do at home, I wish i was there. They coming to clean my lounge suite today, they are way over due for a good clean.

Zaylee is walking the world full now, so cute. She still needs to learn how to get up without pulling herself up against something.

I really hope this day goes quickly.

Morning Ladies,

I took yesterday off, as work is really getting to me now. Another 4 weeks then I am on leave till 2nd May 2012! I went for breakfast with my mom, then we proceeded in going shopping and she bought me all the stuff that I still needed, I love my mom so much, I really hope one day I will be in the position to do the same for my sons!

Then we went for our 4D! Reagan looks just like his dad, and nothing like Jamie or I. He has the prominent jaw line, and chin, the long straight nose, just has my cheecks! It was great, he did give us a hard time, had to go for coffee and did a couple of squats, to get him to turn but in the end we got some nice pictures!

My next appointment is on the 29th! I can't wait! I really want to know how much Reagan weighs now, they couldn't do the measurements yesterday! All she did keep on saying was that this kid had very long legs, just like his dad!

I am not feeling to great, I think my tummy is acting up again! Will drink the pills again the doctor gave me last week!

morning!

Well I woke up in a good mood today??? So weird

It sad that not all die medi clinic does the same thing. I never got informed of a free 4D scan when I booked my bed, but that is probably something they don't do for free. I know I got a nice bag last time at Durbanville mediclinic.
I was wondering if I should ask the doctor if we pay less when we start with with 2 or 1 week visits. That would mean, should I go full term that we have to pay R1600 in my last for weeks?? Gosh WHY is it so expensive.

chbbychick hope you enjoyed the sponserfunction. Wish I could dress up a bit. Ag but have nowhere to go!

Vision congrats on the GIRL!!! you are so lucky to weight 63. I am just dreaming of that. I used tho weigh 54!!! Last time I was at a sort of good weight was after Ruan was born. Lost 6kg in 4 weeks on weighless got to 61kg. I will never say what i way now But i can say that I picked up 10kg up untill 28weeks. Now I will just get fatter!

Carlene so nice!!! I have to do a picnic sometime. maybe saturday. If it is not too windy (as usual!!)

Simone, you really are a lucky girl. Your DH sounds very romantic!! I never get flowers DH believes that if he buys me flowers then I would ask him what he did wrong. BUt hey maybe I will get some for our anniversary the 1st of DEC.
Wow! a sleighbed. AG I am soooo jealous! I have always wanted one. Unfortunately the biggest size me can get up our awkward stairs is a queen size. Hope you enjoy it! And hope Adison is feeling better today.

Zelf take it easy at work. Almost time for ML ??
