Re: New Mommies to be May, June & July 2011

Welcome Noelene - what did the dr say? I hope everything's fine!

Niknaks - They say you can use yummie tummie throughout your pregnancy and even afterwards - esp if your shirts become to short, you can wear that underneath and it just gives you a layered look. Unfortunately at the rate my belly's growing I'll probably outgrow most of my clothes. I don't think I'm going to be one of those women with a cute belly - I'm going to be the one who has to convince everyone that I'm really not having twins . But it would be wonderful to skip maternity wear and just buy nice normal clothes.

Let us know what you decide about your work.

Esmarie - I paid R119 for the belt at Baby City in Woodmead.

Maybe you should try eating yoghurt with active cultures in at least once a day for you diarhea. It might just be your something in your digestive system that's out of balance. Hope you have a better day and that you'll get some sleep tonight.

MsDee - LOL for the devil's hour

AFM: Went for our scan yesterday and it was amazing - as always. Everything looks normal - the nuchal fold is well within normal range and the nasal bone is well developed. The best part was seeing the toes and fingers. They are so cute.

And I just want to say again that I love my dr. After hearing other people's stories I like him even more. He explains every little thing on the screen and at one time he sighed and said 'These babies are just so cute - I can keep watching them for hours' It might just be good bedside manners, but makes us feel so much more relaxed about asking questions and enjoying the sight of our baby.

Sorry for the loooong post

Haha, I wish sunrise. Still a long road to go before I show. And I cant wait!
Hope the ms will ease up soon! When do you have your next scan?

Tanasha. Marshmalow and bubblegum. Wonder how that would taste. I can already see how you mail us all some! (Ek dink sa is bietjie agter met dai ene) I drink one cup of coffee when I wake up. The rest juice, water and rooibos. But Im so lus for coke. Damn!

Good morning to the other ladies.

Afm. Yet another night with little sleep. If that dog barks again tonight. I am waking up the owners!
Seems like symptoms are kicking in. My boobs extremely sord this morning. And the ms dont seem to go away as the day progresses. Wanted to throw up at the smell of my clean toilet! Jig!

Tataa. Have a nice day all! Sahm duties calling me.... Have to finish mopping so tht I can sit the rest of the day. Oh boy, next year is going to be crazy! My lb starts Gr. R!

Hi Ladies,

Yooo long time I've been sick for the past few days MS was really killing me. The only thing I'm good at lately is sleeeping LOL.

I can see everyone is doing great.

Wow Congrats TaNasha on your BFP. I'm sure it's still unbelievable. Enjoy every moment of it.


Karien I'm glad your scan went well.

Esmari hehehe you look preggies already?

Claire, Niknaks,Phil, Lauran, Rakker, Weeskind, MsDee I'm sorry if I forgot someone I hope you are well ladies.

Keep well ladies.

please check the jhb meeting thread under ladies topic if you plan to attend the meeting on 15 january. we need a final answer from all attending about the venue change

Thanks Tazzy! I found some marshmellow and bubblegum flavoured tea today! Its made especially for children and pregnant women, i am interested to find out what it tastes like!

I also have sore boobs, woohoo! yay for my 1st symptom!! and i have this very weird feeling in my tummy, cant really describe it.

I am so excited to be a mommy!!!

Sorry to barge in here ...

Tanasha - Earl grey tea is a no-no, aswell as other herbal teas.
Id say stick to roiibos to be safe.

Hope all your preggy ladies start feeling vibrant soooooon!!

Hey Guys!

@Esmari, Karienh, I am not so sure about the waking up in the middle of the night thing, i've always had it. It used to be betwen 2:30 and 3:00 everynight like clockwork. My very religious friends used to tell me it's the devil's hour and i should just pray... But now it could be anytime between 1:00 and 3:00.

Luckily 95% of the time i fall back asleep about an hour later

@Niknaks& ClaireC, thanks for the positive thoughts on my exams!

Enjoy your day everyone
