January 2013 - Baby/Mommy Club!

Wow - thanks for the welcome ladies ... A little about myself, I live in Fourways JHB, took 1.3 months to concieve this little baba, went for fertility treatment @ Vitalab, had a lap in March and fell pregnant naturally in Thailand in April!! Yay!! We are so excited! My bump is slowly starting to look like a baby and not like I ate too many pies Im also on Ecotrin till 34 weeks... Feeling good, no real complaints just lots of zits & headaches in the evenings and night. Went furniture shopping on the weekend for a cot and compactum and I had to chose a theme, hadnt thought of one so was under pressure, wanted a neutral theme though with cute wild animals so excited we at least getting the ball rollying... all you mums already, do you really need a rocking chair? What else have you started buying?
Tazzy - sorry I hijacked your name
Hope you have a fabulous week ladies - love all your bump pics! Need to load one!!

@Snoekie... that is really stunning! You are very talented!!!

@Anthea.... shame man, like with my Ecotrin, if gynae has prescribed it, it should be ok. I've also been having a lot of pains lately, but then again i am bending over packing boxes and stuff and on a busy day is when my pains are worst!

AFM...

The movers are coming on Wednesday morning so not long now. Tonight is the last night in our house as we're going to a launch in Dbn tomorrow night and then will race back early Wednesday morning to meet the moving truck. We've also been out all day doing interviews for staff and waiting for telkom to install our line. Just got home now & I"m exhausted!

Thanks for the advice Snoekie! I am trusting my gut by also not taking it... Although i know a few people who have had it prescribed by their gynae...

WOW!!! You are so creative hey!!!! That is going to look stunning when it all comes together!

Good Morning Ladies,

Anthea,
I would be careful of taking the Tramacet... My Dh also uses that for his cronic back problems. It is a S5 medication, very strong stuff. But I guesse the doc won't give you something that is bad for baba
Glad the MS is subsiding! Hope you feel better hun, I get slight ligament pains, mostly if I get up too quickly or if I am on my feet for long periods at a time...

Cherikey,
Love the baby Bump. I will take another one tonight and come and post. I think I am going to do it on a weekly basis now, to see how I grow!

Juwayraj,
LOVE that scan pic, there is so much detail of babas face in it! It really is so beautiful!!

AFM,
I am feeling a lot more perky today...
I did the first pannel of my Tatty Teddy Murreal last night. I am not allowed to paint the wall as we are renting our cottage at the moment. So now I am doing 6/9 A2 sketches in Soft Pastels to form a murreal.
This is a picture of the first sketch I did last night.

Hi there Ladies

Hope you are doing better than me. Been off since last week with terrible pains "down there"... Doc put me on bed rest for round ligament syndrome, with strict instructions to come in if the pain gets worse. Thank goodness it hasnt gotten worse but it hasnt gotten much better either. He prescribed Tramacet for the pain I am a bit worried about taking that as it was prescribed for my DH after his back op

Is anyone else suffering with pains down there? And in the ligament area? I had it with my previous pregnancy too, just not as early as this and not this painful!

@Cherikey - the bump looks AWESOME hey!!!! Not at all like a roll of fat!!!

Congrats Juwayraj!!! Great stuff that you are having a boy!! My MS seems to be subsiding FINALLY - hope yours does soon too!

@ Snoekie - seems like those preggy hormones are in over drive hey I cry at the simplest of ads!!! So can totally relate!

Have a good week everyone!!

18 weeks today!!! 2 weeks to go till we see lit' Morgan again!! Cant wait

Aww...cute!!

I will really try to take a pic over the weekend.

@juwayraj.... A boy, how exciting!

So i feel really big last night before jumping in the bath & so thought i'd take a pic of my bump.... in the nude

Thanks for all the lovely compliments on the bump everyone... It's made me feel a bit better!
