wow that's beautiful! thank you for the kind words Snowflake

And thank you NnitaN for your kind message too xxx


I was meeting a friend for lunch today, took my 1year old with. We were about 5min early
the waitress assisted me with the babychair (its called a tot seat, piece of material and folds onto any chair to make a baby chair)

My little boy is at a stage where he is VERY attached to mommy like he clings like a monkey! so when I tried to put him in and she strapped him he started to cry as he though I was giving him to her. He settled down very quickly. When I looked up the manager of the shop gave me a very disapproving look (while hanging lounging onto the counter top across the room) I ignored her.

I ordered toasted sarmie for him waiting to put my order in for when my friend comes. I then start to notice each customer that comes in the manageress makes it her duty to "warn" them not to sit close to us as "die kind skreeu al van die inloop slag" I couldn't hear the rest. I kept looking at her to show her I am actually hearing your conversation!! she wouldn't make eye contact with me. At the end my friend came as my sons sarmie came out and I begged her that we could leave and rather go to another place she agreed, I was made felt so uncomfortable and unwelcome... I was a paying customer... The waitress heard when I told my friend what happened and she brought me the owners business card asking me to please send her an email as I am not the first one to complain...

Even though the manager saw me up and leave she made no attempt to come and ask what is wrong etc... and after asking the waitresses yes she has kids... You would think someone with children would have more understanding towards other mommies!

But we had a super lunch at a small quirky coffee shop just around the corner - TOTAL different experience


Sorry for the long message just had to get that off my chest!

Hi Liefie

I can tell you now its normal. I am preggies with my 3rd and the same feeling like with the 2nd in the beginning. As your pregnancy progress you will change and believe me, you will be amazed how much love you will have for both your kiddos. I still tell my 2nd one that he is my baby even though I am going to have 3 .

Someone told me that a mothers heart can love the world and its so true.

Hey Liefie

You are not the only one my dear, I don't know whether I was worried more than being happy that nothing must go wrong with the second one more than enjoying the pregnancy.

I also feel bad at times its like I a not as excited as I was the first time, but deep down inside I know I love this one as much as the first one. God's answer to my prayers.

Morning ladies

Always nice to see new messages from you!

Tanya I am so happy you are feeling better and that little peanut is doing fine

Welcome Kaalvoetkind! Goodluck with the symptoms they should start declining round about 12/13weeks
I guess I am lucky I didn't have much Morning sickness etc with first pregnancy, second time around some queasiness
and tiredness but with both I am hungry all the time! I could munch the whole day long! Anything with ginger helped me
when I felt queasy.

I wanted to ask those of you that have little ones is it normal not to yet feel you have a bond with second one?
I know this sounds bad but with my first born I fell in love on the first scan - not sure that it is because I am much more
busy second time around with little one and don't really get so much time to concentrate on second pregnancy but sometimes feels like I sort of forget that I am pregnant! Just wanted to know if other mommies have ever felt like this?

Hi ladies,

Tanya1 - I am very glad that your little bean is okay.

AFM - 10 weeks today. Went for my bloodtests this morning. Counting the days to the end of the first trimester. Still not having too many symptoms. Only gets nausea when I'm hungry. Feeling a stretching type feeling in my lower abdomen now when I lift my arms . Also get this feeling of pressure against my bladder.
Liefie - I've also got constipation. Eating dried prunes to take care of that.

Hello

Welcome KLK...lol your name is too long, I am sorry about your nausea that is exactly how I gelt with my first pregnancy. I lost weight as I was not able to stomach anything. Thank God this time I only get MS when I have to eat and my rooibos tea with lemon slices is doing a great job.

I now have days where I suffer from constipation and its the worst thing ever, but with the love of milk it helps a lot.

Tanya I love your faith, there is a song I love that says "Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is Lord", any mountain that we are facing lets tell it our God is bigger than it.

I am happy that you are calm and all the best. Im feeling much stronger today.
