January 2013 - Baby/Mommy Club!

@Traceyo.... what a lovely pic... I popped out to get milk on Sunday & a lady looked at me & said: You must be ready to pop any day now... I politely told her no, 2 months still to go... She said, o, he must be a big boy!

On another note, so after seeing the Chiropractor on Monday my back & hip is feeling much better... HOWEVER... my pubic bone area is 10x worse than it was before.... mmm.... not sure what to do. I'm supposed to have a follow up tomorrow but not sure if i should rather just stay away???

Hi Ladies

Anthea - I live in Cape Town - would have loved to have meet up with all the mommies enjoy it

Attached the pic I have been promising for a while now.... oops.... did not realise I looked that "big"....

Have a great day everyone!!!

@Anthea... Wish i still lived in that area... When i had my LG at Wilgers that nice little coffee shop at The Grove Mall used to do monthly moms & tots breakfast get togethers with goodie bags & all..... Was really really nice! Not sure if they still do it, but check with them. The mall also has a moms club if i'm not mistaken???

Sending lots of hugs your way Kelz!!

I think we are all reaching a stage where we are now gatvol of everything, and basically want to be at the end of the pregnancy, holding our bundles of joy!!

Out of curiosity - how many of you are in PTA? Would anyone be interested in a "preggy coffee" to meet a few of us face to face...? That way we could also do "play dates" once the little ones arrive?

Good Morning ladies.

I went home from work yesterday with a terrible Migraine and eye strain which caused my eyes to fuzz over - I felt so lame asking my boss to go home for a "headache" but it's the second time now (Had one on Sat which put me in bed at 7:30pm) so think it's time for a trip to the optician....

Thanks you everyone for your kind words of support I feel a bit silly complaining now knowing that some of you have lost your mum's completely Mine is in England (where i am from originally) but I at least still get to see her once a year. I think it makes it worse because I am an only child..we were not so close when I was growing up but I was a bit of a tear away teenager and I didn't really appreciate everything she had done for me as a single mother - now I know I probably rely on her more than ever but she is so far.... it's so nice though to have you ladies to chat away to

My SIL is about 4 weeks ahead of me which will make her about 31/32 weeks. From what I understand, the doctor is quite confident that if baby needs to be taken out now, his chances are very good in an incubator, but still it's not what u want hey?! it's still a lot of stress for her and I feel so much for her right now...

Good Luck with the Dentist Juwrayraj: I hate the dentist and am also waiting until after this little guy comes to go for a tooth extraction, but then I can because I don't have the pain luckily for me - I can only imagine how bad you feel and can understand the need for removal.

Not sure about the Breast pump Tazzy - I did notice there was a price difference and for some reason the double one was slightly cheaper so not at all sure if an exchange will work - you can only but ask. Haha Tracyo - I think you might be right with the faster expression! My husband was also laughing to himself in the pharmacy because in his words I can now "do both boobies at once" Hahaha - he is so childish at times....

We also will not be having a nursery to begin with because we have a 2 bed place and my mum is coming over for 3 weeks after the birth (I'm not sure what I am most excited about...) so baby will sleep with us for that time..after that not sure - he will probably sleep in the other room, but it wont really be "decorated"

I hope everyone has a good day further and to those who are suffering with aches/pains and general probs - I am also starting to look like a Hippo now with still 3 months to go and I'm short too! My MIL keeps joking that my tummy will be by my knees soon cause I am so short and "round" right now

I am with you guys on the the pity party same aches, restless nights and feeling sorry for myself - everyone keeps telling me I look like I could have the baby any day now & I still have 9 weeks to go....

Juwrayraj - good luck with the dentist - will be thinking of you!!! not my favorite person!!

Tazzy9 - my mom also passed away when I was young and I still wish she was here to share my pregnancies with.... I only have brothers and it is just not the same - I have felt really down this pregnancy but I think it is because I have been working from home since having my LG and I only really have my immediate family around - not really any good friends - so you guys are the one's that I am sharing my pregnancy with

HAHAHAHA Juwrayraj... Although i shouldnt laugh... i find myself in the same boat as you with regard to sleep, to the extent that my hips actually go numb if i dont turn often... And then i need to a bathroom run almost each time i wake up!!!!

I too am getting HUGE!! And still have 3 months to go...
