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

Hi Tanasha, try drinking some coke or other soda. It normally gets them moving. But if you're really worried phone your midwife now, I'm sure she won't mind.

Hi ladies,

Hope you are well?

I have not felt baby move since 5Am this morning, usually I feel her about 2-3 times before lunch, should i be worried?

I was thinking to wait till tonight and if there is still nothing then to call the midwife, but I am already worried?

@mandymel Thanks! I did consider leaving a note but decided I had written so much nonsense they wouldnt beleive me anyway

All is well this side

My mother-in-law - went a little over board and bought loads of vests and baby gros - so we now definitely have more than enough!

Good Morning All you lovely ladies....

I trust everyone is doing well today?

I must admit (shamed face) that I did not vote yesterday...for 2 reasons actually (1) i felt really heavy and crappy yesterday so I couldn't see myself standing in those long queue's and (2) I lost my id (or at least i think i lost it, been searching for it for a while now) so I wouldn't have been able to vote in anycase..my mum says that's a lame excuse as I could have gone to Haffairs the day b4 and got a temporary one just for the day so ya, I guess I could have...seriously though, I need to find my ID fast as Im gonna need it when it comes to registering the new baba...

@MsDee, your post made me laugh - thanx for that, you made my day It's so true, pregnancy makes us do crazy things without even realising it! Enjoy your ml as much as you can and remember to take things slow and rest as much as you can..I wish I had followed that bit of advice last yr and slept as much as I could coz once baby comes it will be a while b4 your life (incl. your sleeping routine)goes back to normal...

@Esmari..hope all is well on your side and you feeling better after the good vent you had the other day? Don't worry, these things come and go...hope you managed to get the pram's wheel fixed? And congrats on the tv ad as well as on winning the poncho - seems luck is your side, i should get you to play the lotto for me

@BettyF..seems you really are enjoying your LG...you so lucky you are actually able to take her out, by the time my one arrives it will be winter and we'll be stuck indoors!

@phillipijane, strange you should mention the nausea and vomiting because I have been experiencing the same lately...and I never had any in my first trimester nor did this occur with my first pregnancy...I'm glad to hear from the other ladies that this is normal as I was starting to get a bit worried! Luckily mine is just a bad case of nausea, only vomited once so it wasn't too bad...

@kanyo82 welcome to the thread! And all the best for what's left your pregnancy...the ladies r lovely here and have lots of helpful advice and tips on hand, so feel free to ask away

@tshepym01, glad to hear everything is well with orefile, so true that they grow up so quickly! Gosh, I remember my 1stborn only wore his newborn clothing for 2 weeks and after that they were to small! That's why this time round i bought mostly 0-3months items coz i got alot more wear out of those!

@Laurakim, well done on finishing your exam, im sure you'll do well! The most NB thing is that you went to write so that counts...PS i hope you left a little note on your script letting the professer know you preggies - maybe you'll get some brownie points (hint,hint)..

ok, so that;s my personal's done - to everyone else, hope you all have an awesome day..I have so much to do, it's my 1st born's first bday next saturday so we running around planning that at the moment (and as u can imagine at 32 weeks u can onli do so much running!!)

Good morning all

As promised: The tv add will start screening thursday evening on sabc, prime-time.

@ esmari I think my bil said c section is the safety because I fell pregnant early b4 my c section heal properly because I dint have any complication on my 1st pregnancy I had to do c-section becoz of her breathing. With this one I don't have any complication so I will c if nature will do its own cause

Karienh lol about the voting, will only decide tomorrow if I am going or not
That's as far as I can remember with personals.

AFM: Orefile is doing super fine she will be 3weeks on Friday and she have put on weight, I haven't took her for a weight but I can tell by her clothes she is no longer tiny lol.I am enjoying having her around,babies grow fast.my mum is with us for a month and I love having her around as I have to learn some of the things from her, dh is not of much help as he is spending most of his time working and I have learned to accept that. I am fully recovered from the c section, it was not bad as I expected it to be I guess I was jut nervous, I was able to get off bed the morning after the c section.
