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

Hi ladies, you've been busy today!

Chan, 7cm's already, good going chick!!! Not long before you holding your lb in your arms, as Asp said, Im sure Kyra will enjoy him when he goes home, if you include her as much as possible with Kade then it might be easier for her.

Carmen, so sorry about your bil, it is just so sad that there is no age to an illness. Your baby shower looked like fun, hope you got spoilt!!

Lizelle, not long to go til you finished work!

SexyHexy, its so nice to see you, thank you for your support and kind words.

Vix, so happy Jono is going to be home soon, he has done so well!! Its best to do the cpr course, dh and I will also be doing it while babies r in nicu. You'll have your family home for Christmas!!

Maryke, glad your boys are doing well too, its always good to hear the babies are doing good!

MommyN, how is Nathan?

Hi to everyone else! Hope you are all having a good day!

Chan 7 cm wow,

Funny the last time we chatted about cm was on our ttc journy now is dilation he he ....

Vix, no we still have a long and hard road ahead of us they have to have cast put on every week for the next 3 months the after that if not working like it should then we might need to operate this process can last up to 6 years of age but I not scare I have the BIG MAN looking after us

What they do every week is manipulate the foot straight in to the cast so that the skin and tendants on the inside will stretch and just maybe we don't need to operate, well I think that is what suppose to happen wasn't really paying attention when the doc was talking to us cause I was feeding Llewellyn at the time and the docter speaks so soft but I will hear what he has to say on wednesday when we go again

Great news Chan!

7cm's!! Still haven't felt a single bit of pain ah I love epidurals!- and everyone here at the hospital is amazing!!

hi ladies, haven't read everyones post, will back on a little later.

Just wanted to wish Chan good luck!! Cant wait to hear your great news!!

Suriya sms'd this morning, her lb was born at 14h30 yesterday weighing 2.85kg

Chat later

Chan! WOW 4cm dilated and no contractions, wishinh you a speedy pain free brith.

Vix - Jono's weightgain is so good, well don, strong little baby boy. Sorry about the blood clot in the CS wound, hope the antibiotics work well and that suregery won't be necessary. Thanks for the condelences.

Lizelle, I thik ask admin about the changes to you e-mail. Ahame your LO was used to being occupied/entertained, he feels lonely now.

Asp - Ster- Yvette- hope you are well.

Maryke- like those nicknames! Thanks for the condelences.

Chan- that's fab! You go girl, can't wait to see your little Kade.

SexyHexy- IThink about you all the time sweet friend, I hope your TTC journey is not too long this time.

Maryke- did you say the boys casts are off? Is that it for treatment now? Jonathan looks like a squirrel monkey after a bath because his hair stands on end so his nickname is squirrel, will have to wait til Jonathan is home to see what suits him. Funny how you give your kids nicknames, I almost never call C by his name, it's always Moomins but he's started calling me that back now LOL

Asp- I thought all along, I don't know how you'll cope with a 1 year old when your baby is born but now from my experience I think it would've been easier if C was either younger or older because 2 is just a horrible age without adding new siblings to the mix. But I will also say I think having a natural birth will make it easier for you at home too, I struggled with C because I couldn't pick him up all the time like he wanted.

Carmen- your shower looked great! I just love the cloth nappy wrapping idea, a friend did it for my baby shower and I have decided I will only ever do that in the future. You're looking great by the way! Pregnancy suits you! Sorry to hear about your BIL, very sad.

So Jonathan has hit the 1.8kg mark today, we have been told to go for CPR training tomorrow at 10am so it looks like he will be home by the weekend! Dr has asked that I come in and start breast feeding him from today, well as much as I can because I still have another baby to BF and a toddler to look after so I can't be in every 3hrs for feeds but I will try my best. I'm so excited my boy is all good to come home very very soon! I'm taking Alexander and Christopher to the pead tomorrow for a check up so will just confirm how much longer for Jonathan to be discharged.

I am not doing so well, I have a blood clot formed on the left side of my C-sec wound it's flippin sore, I went to see a gynae yesterday because mine is on leave and she prescribed antibiotics for a week and if it doesn't go down then I must have it cut out, I really don't need to be going under the knife again not when I have 2 beautiful babies to BF. I am taking my antibiotics religiously and hoping so flippin hard that the clot disappears! Just to show you girls, yet another complication of having a C-sec....... I am becoming more and more pro natural with each C-sec I have to have. There is no way I will have another child not even if I won the Lotto and could afford a football team, I just can't do this to my body AGAIN!
