Jan / Feb 2017 Babies

Morning ladies,

Aaaahhh Bea that's such a beautiful pic of the twins Can't believe how they have grown!
So glad to hear you and the boys are doing well. Good luck with the injections and must be such a relief that the medical aid covers 6....at least it's less stress on your shoulders.
Please send some more pics of the photoshoot!

Seems that the mommies and soon-to-be mommies prefer chatting on the whatsapp group - so for those of you who would like to join please let us know so that Debbie can add you to the group!

So here's a little update for those who are not on the whatsapp group:

Mrs Gov gave birth yesterday morning to a beautiful little boy - he also decided to show his beautiful little face earlier than expected!

Tanya is due to have her Caesar on Monday 30th....

Simmybunz - let us know how it goes with your scan today

SpiritedMama - how are you holding up? Are you still hanging in there or have you given birth yet?

Guess we are all still counting down the days! Try and relax ladies - we're almost there!
Have a lovely day

Gonste, congratulations! How is things going at home with the little one?

Lethuwam, glad your 4D scan went well, it's so special. Hope your hip pain is better soon. Good idea to get some extra help, I initially didn't want to but my husband insisted and I'm so happy that we did.

Pokkeltjie, enjoy your babyshower and farewell today! Hope the pain subsides.

Debbie, how you're feeling about a possible C section? I guess it's best to be prepared for either scenario. I was in natural labour for 15 hours with my first child and end up having a C section which was a bit disappointing at the time. But in the end I knew it was the right decision for baby and me.

Spirited Mama, wow, it's almost time for baby to arrive!! Good luck with the last few days.

SimmyBunz, 38 weeks already this week - do you have a planned C section or are you waiting for natural labour? Good luck

Tanya, how did your scan go.

AFM: My babies finally reach 40 weeks gestation on Saturday - it was such a bitter sweet milestone - can't believe they are already 12 weeks old, but "actual six days" today. We did a newborn shoot on Sunday and they've behaved like real newborn babies - just sleeping away. Things are going well at home. I'm now expressing exclusively and feeding them breastmilk by bottle - it's very hard work, but it's the best for them - they were just too prem to drink sufficiently from the breast and they were losing weight. Tomorrow we start with their first Synagis RSV immunisation injection in the paed's office - it's only for prem babies as they have immature lungs - it's R12 000 per injection per child, but thank goodness the medical aid has approved six injections for each of them - they will be getting them once a month for the next six months.

Morning Ladies,

How is everyone doing....oooohhhh the list is getting shorter & shorter!

@ Lethuwam - glad all went well with your scan and that baba is growing nicely. I'm with you on the hip pain...becoming really unbearable during the night....keeps me awake all night But I just keep telling myself not long to go

Can't believe how fast the time is going now! Everyone is getting sooo close - all very exciting!

AF - nothing new my side.....just still struggling with the leg and hip pain - it's driving me crazy at night time!
My work colleagues are having a baby shower and farewell for me on Thursday - looking forward to that and then I finish work on Tuesday 31st to be a stay @ home mommy for a while. Counting down the days now...seems so close yet still so far!

Have an awesome day ladies....and keep us updated!

Hi ladies, I am so glad everyone is doing great well except for those preggy niggles.
I gave birth to our daughter on the 11th January, she weighed 3.2kg at 39 weeks3days

Hi Everyone,

i cant believe we are on the last leg of this journey already, last week Friday i went for my appointment.

Baby was 32 Weeks 2.1kg growing nicely, i did my 4D scan last year, it was so amazing to see the baby yawn and finger in her mouth, ooh maan we are truly blessed to get an opportunity to carry a life inside of us.

My only issue is the pain in my hip shoooo it drives me crazy especially at night between the bathroom stops

I'm sorry i cant get to everyone, but i'm glad everyone is doing good. exactly a month from today i will be in hospital meeting my little one, God willing.

I would like to finish work on the 10th and have a bit of time to rest and do last minute stuff, i think i'm the only one who has not wash the baby clothes or pack the bag yet i'm too lazy and tired to do anything.i'm desperately looking for nanny/helper to assist us. husband in and out of CT, Talk about bad timing this year .

Keep well everyone, work started with a bang i have to much to do and hand over.

Hi Debbie,

Replied to your PM - did you get it?

Have a great Friday

Pokkeltjie - the lack of sleep is also killing me I am tired but when I lie down I am wide awake , need to get all the rest we can in before or little bundle of joys arrive and keep us up all hours of the knight.
