Jan/Feb 2011 Mommies (Nov & Dec 2010 early babes)

Hi ladies

Yvette, the pead said it could be someone that had it that passed it on or contaminated surfaces from chicken eggs animals could be anything even water so not clear where they got it from it takes 42 - 72hrs before symptoms start showing and the only time we went out was that sunday when we went to the farm and there was a lot of farm animals so could be from there no idea...

Thanks vix loaded my pic lets just call it lack of sleep and lack of attention...

Chris how was the A-team last night what I also started doing with the boys if they cry the first time during the night I first see if I console them with the dummy if after the second try they still moan and cry I give them there bottle sometimes all they want is just the comfort of sucking, I think we are going through a growth spurt again they really demanded milk last night and they drank alot useally they only drink like 60ml and fall back a sleep...

Ster Chris are they still having poo nappies at night? If not just a suggestion don't change there nappies unless it really is due that also wakes them during the night and then takes a while to get them settled, I also prop feed them in there cots for the night feeds so they also don't get use to being picked up during the night - but that just works for me some people may feel different about it

Miksmom sometimes you just have to freak for the men to realize you need help I mean we are wonderwoman but we can only do so much....

Binks lizelle mina hi gals hope bubs are fine

AFU we decided not to put bubs in creche what we going to do instead is we have an open office at work and we going to make that up in a nursery and I am getting a lady to come and watch them at work for me so I can still do my work and still keep an eye on them and still keep them with me a little while longer we will send them to school in the new year

Ok ladies enjoy the day may we all have a peacefull one

Good morning all

Shoo, it more active on here then on my July mommies.

Yvette clover and family doing well, Vanya does the same thing by attacking the boob then im trying to help so her head goes up boob goes down then i take it up the her head goes down till we get in sinc and she goes naaam, and sucks like she hasnt eaten in days. Arwen just loves Vanya want to hold the baba all the time she says to me my baba.

Vix im sure C will love school and learn how super special you are to him, i love fetching A from school coz when she sees me she screams mama and stamps her feet and runs and hugs me.

Maryke glad you home and all ok now, it feels so nice to just get home and be with your family.

Sterr I hope you just enjoy Inge they grow up so fast, but you learn to enjoy them even more when they start doing there own little things, Like Arwen a weekend is not a weekend if my house isnt trashed, there is sand in my bed,bath,carpet, anywhere you can think of, she plays jump jump everyday on her dads back and laughs herself into a coma, i love her to bits and cant wait for Vanya to get a bit more busy.

Chris i say well done on the BM for 3 babes for so long im sure you have given them enough antibodies at this stage.
Vanya refuses to take a dummy and my pead really wants me to give her one, Arwen only had one for 3w and the lady that taught me to BF told me to throw it, pead then told me to give it back at 6m but it was to late.

How you get you little ones to take a dummy i've tried from bith but been bad for a 2 or 3 weeks now.

Meags i waited till 40 weeks with Arwen then went for a induction coz i just couldnt wait any longer, i had peth and a epidural and the baby was just fine with the meds, Anyway when i went in for my induction i was 1cm that day so ya i would have waited a few more days for A, With Vanya i was 3cm on Tues and went for my induction on Saterday and was still 3cm, 1st ones take longer!! Hope you doing well though.

Hope you all have a fab day.

morning

Vix @ Mik loves school. She loves her little friends and all their activities. My feeling is that the school can do more with her than what I can? If that makes sense! You've done well keeping him home for this long. I am sure he is going to enjoy school and when he gets home in the afternoon you are going to have a super special time with him chatting about his friends and all his activities! Have you started looking for a school yet?

Meags @ almost there honey!! Just hang in there!

Chris @ you're post made me giggle...

Yvette @ amazing how at a small age you can already see their different personalities!? Wian is such a happy little thing, always laughing where Mik use to be much more vocal about her needs!
haha.. actually she still is!!

Maryke @ so glad the boys are doing better and are home again!

AFM we've had a rough week last week.. I had a complete meltdown but the good news is that I think hubby realised that I need more help. Some times the pressure is just too much and I want to run for hills. Wian is such a happy little chap. I was looking at some of his photos last night and he is always smiling

Hope its a great week!! xxx

Chris- wow, congrats on the extra 2hrs to the babies sleep. I know you're super scared of them all waking at the same time but if you can find a way then please please stop setting your alarm at that time of the night, let them drop a feed so you my friend can get some much needed sleep. Xxxx now my boys only wake once between 8 and 7 at around 3ish and that has made a huge difference to my quality of life.

Yvette- I'm so pleased you're enjoying Emily! I didn't mean to make you feel bad about the castor oil thing, I have never liked the idea of something so hard (I hate having the squits) on your body.

Maryke- your teething bling page doesn't have a pic! It needs to be down sized to be able to upload it. Quickly go fix it so we can vote for you too.

O.k my mind is numb so forgive me for ending replies there,

To cut a long story short, I have decided to send C to school because he is craving attention I don't have time to give. My heart is really sore because he's refusing me to do anything even a good night kiss is no longer allowed. I hope school will help him to miss and enjoy me more!

No, I know what you mean, when its close to the end I think we just get so anxious about meeting our mini people ()

chris - love your post! i laughed reading it. these babies aer funny

meags - chin up. he'll keep you company soon x well done though again.

Chris dont get my wrong. I still love feeling the movements and being pregnant. I think I am also wishing him out because I'm bored and lonely...
I just dont like being pregnant when I have the back ache and rib pain!

Yvette I doubt anything has started happening...I think for Mina and Binks they had changes as it wasnt their first baby. Most mom's having a 2nd or 3rd baby usually start dilating early.
But I have to have the Strep B vaginal swab on Tuesday so guess the midwife will be able to see then if anything is going on. apparently they also do a rectal swab yuck...
