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

Aspoestertjie, glad I could help you guess on your babie's gender Trust me, Ive googled baby boys and girls at 16wks and there is no way a girl can have a pointy bit like that! lol

Chris, so happy you and the trips are doing so well!!! So cute that the little girl is always sucking her thumb.. at least she will be able to soothe herself so you can attend to the others.. she is already showing a caring and considerate nature So is your dr leaving you until as long as possible or is there a cut-off date?? Please please girls, its my birthday on the 20th Dec and I would just love to have a nice BIRTH-day prezzie !

Chris - Happy to hear that the triplets are doing well. Thanks. We not really going away but will be going to warmbads for the day. Then maybe take Thashreya to the zoo, etc. Basically we taking to time off just to relax.

Aspoestertjie - Please don't say that. I did that with Thashreya as I was so sick with that pregnancy. My c-section was only booked for the 15th Dec but I took maternity leave from the 1st Nov. However 9 days later I was in hospital with premature labour and Thashreya was born on the 17th Nov.

I will post a belly pic some time this week. It really has shot out so much. The rate Im growing, I might be the first to pop, and the biggest, HAHA! ....Oi..... I keep reminding myself I have 3 in here, I dont want to think how big I will be!

Chris- that's fantastic news! Any belly pics? Glad they are all doing so well! you may well be the first of the group to have your babies!

Hey ladies!

Paisley, nice to hear from you, glad BIG BOY is growing so nicely!

Vix, how was the weekend at Naboom?

Suriya, enjoy the week off, are you going away?

Kimika, how are you?

Mina, congrats on the lil' girl!

Hi to all the other ladies!!!

Went for my scan this morning, both girls measuring on track, lil boy is slightly smaller, but they are averaging between 340 and 368g (so now my belly is how I would look at about 28/29weeks, lol, if only He was happy with progress and, only seeing him in another 4 weeks even dh wasn't too thrilled, he said maybe we'll sneak a scan in between. He said he doesn't think I will carry further than 32w, so that brings my date between 6 and 17 Dec, provided they stay in, he said also we must just try to get to 28w, babies are more viable from then, even sometimes at 26w, but if anything happens around then, they will admit me and start with the steroids. So babies are doing well, they are growing, I am growing, we all growing very quickly (well, me especially ). Dr wont be around in Dec but he said he possibly will be if I carry up to 32w/beginning of Dec... From about 26/28w I should start working half day or from home which is beginning of november.

Boy was so so busy, dr even sat back to look at him, little girl was (take a guess).... sucking her thumb again!! She is going to be born with the finger in her mouth, lol its so cute, but we gng to have problems with her dummy. My neice was the same, and now she tries to put 2 dummies in her mouth at once, she walks around with about 4 of them.

Asp- insightful wouldn't be on the top of the list of words i would use to describe me, Honest would probably cover most of it LOL but it's not always good, sometimes my honesty can upset people too but if you still want to chat you can always email me vickie@babybear.co.za as i get them on my BB all day long.

Wow, 4.14kg baby from your tiny body? good for you!!!! I'm pleased you have a great tale of big baby natural birth, it's sad so many feel pushed into a C-sec, in my opinion if you want a C-sec have one but don't feel you have to make excuses for it, if you want a Natural birth at least give it a try even if Dr says baby is too big. I had a C-sec and I rarely give my reasoning out to people because whether i wanted it or not that was they way it happened, nothing can change that.

Hope your LG is better now after your bad weekend! xxxxxxxxx

all these pressies sound great!

now I'm off to check out Kimika's scan pics i didn't realize she had posted!

Morning All

Kimika, congrats on another LB! Saw you scan pics on MAR/APR tread, wow, Maryka is really good. And also got confirmation for my LB, since his parts looks very much like your LB's

Vix, thanx for your reply on my PM on Friday. I read it on Friday, but did not have time to reply. You really are a very special person...and very insightfull. Thanx for making me feel so much better. Oh, and I can't seem to access my PM's now, so that is why I haven't replied.

Also, I am so very happy to hear your twins are doing so great. A multiple pregnancy is always so risky, and it is really good to hear that yours are progressing so nicely without any problems. Keep up the good work

As for me, had a tough Friday and Saturday with my LG being sick/teething. But a wonderful Sunday and missing her terribly today. Have started feeling more movement from Adriaan (my LB) and can't wait till he starts kicking the crap out of me. Would like to share with my family. Oh, and I got so many gifts from my MIL, my sister and my mother for Adriaan already. Mostly little outfits, but I might alreayd have atleast 25 thingies for him to wear. And the stuff are still pouring in

Have also started to feel uncomfortable, and really had a hard time sleeping last night. Tummy & Boobies are getting way to big for my liking.

Suriya, try taking it easy! From the sound of it, you might need to go off beginning NOV No, seriously, take a break. Let your bosses know that they need to start preparing for you ML in any case, so get some help. You need to relax while you can - a baby and a toddler will be asking all your energy!

Paisley, great that your baby is doing so well and is BIG. My LG was Big and it seems her brother will also be. And believe me, it makes it so much easier - especially when they are newborn. And I gave natural birth to a 4.14kg baby, so if your are planning on going that route, it can be done and I barely tore!

To all I am missing, sorry! I am only replying on what I can see now, but do read everyone's posts.

Those who are going for a scan, lucky you! Hope you get a GREAT peek a baby and see the sex!

Have a good day everyone
