August/September 2011 mommies to be

Tracey, are u joining us on Saturday at Clearwater

Hey everyone

CandiBez: Hope you feel better soon, and take it easy

Laliek: Those Cariewell drop cup bras are quite expensive, I haven't bought any yet and luckily so, cause I happened to notice over the weekend at Woolworths, that they had t-shirt style bras (which I like), non-wired with drop cup for R140. I was very surprised, so I'm going to head back there over the weekend to go and try them on.

I find I tend to waddle when I start getting tired, cause then it just takes too much energy to walk properly, lol.

And I've developed a limp now too, because I have sciatic nerve pain in my butt, since last week Thursday

Other than that all is going well
I'm waiting patiently for my baby shower, cause I don't want to go out and buy anything till I see what I've got. I've already got quite a bit though, since my family are so excited that they can't restrain themselves from shopping, lol.

Hope you all have a good day

Good Morning

Wow Laliek - C is a big boy,
And yes the Carriwel stuff are expensive

Candi - please look after yourself and Z

Hapi, I think the best is to breath and tackle one thing at a time
Make alist of what needs to be done and then take it from there

Hallo Skai - No I do not waddle yet, will get there - hehe

I am feeling so much better this morning, but I will still take it slow this week and not exercise, I will even skip yoga this afternoon, did not even pack my gym clothes for it
I have been drink Citrus Soda the past 2 days and that has also helped, i think I had a mild bladder infection.

Have a great day

Oh and I forgot to add yesterday the doc told me I actually picked up a bit more weight than I was suppose to - overall is at 14kg now!! YIKES!!!!! So I guess I'm with all of you on the healthy eating for the last 7 weeks....actually a good thing then I won't struggle with a very healthy diet when I breastfeed. So from now on it's going to be veggie soups or nice steamed veggies and my proteins for dinner...no more sweeties

And, my c-section date has been finalised - C will be joining our world on 28 July - yay!!!!! Only bad part is I'm scheduled for 14h00 in the afternoon!

Morning girls!

Hayley - thanks for popping in Yip as you saw, we are all giraffes lol.

How are the rest of the ladies doing this morning?

Hapi - I think Skai has a brilliant idea of making the list! That should help you feel a bit more calm and relaxed!

Candi & BoB - how are you girls doing today?

Ankia - feeling better today I hope?

Skai - I've got pics of C from every scan but I'm struggling to load the bloody things onto moomie! When I load it it just doesn't upload at all That's why I said to everyone to look at my facebook page - I'll try upload some more there later on!

AFM: Tired again today aaaannnddd, feeling like I'm getting a cold again! I've got this irritating annoying cough and starting to feel a bit groggy - urrrggghhhh.....it's so annoying when you keep getting stuck in between healthy and ill! I don't want to get ill now and I really hope I wont. Sjoe, pregnancy in the last trimester is demanding!

As for the waddle - my mom told me over the weekend apparently I do waddle and I thought I still walk pretty normal lol. Ah well, if that's the case I'll have to just start quacking like a duck soon!

Skai I also looked at pj's at Ackermans - they're actually nice and cheap and seeing that I have to take at least 3 pairs I might just buy from there but we'll see! I just want to get button pj's so it's easier to breastfeed!

By the way - Sunday I bought those lovely passion killer support panties from Carriwell - they're bloody expensive! I added up what I spent on maternity bra's, feeding bra's (which by the way is R300 a pop!!), and now the panties and it's quite shocking! Actually a rip off if you ask me...

Hi Ladies,

Sorry just to barge in here.... Quick one..


Hapi, when are the girls making their grand entrance???

Laliek, i cant believe how much Cameron is weighing... Awesome healthy baby boy you have there...

Then again your hubby and family are not short people, you are all quiet tall...

Goodluck hun x x x x

Ha ha, I don't have the waddle yet although I do often 'waddle' up the stairs to my place...especially when I'm tired. My DH finds it ammusing...must look quite funny!

Candi - sorry to hear about your whole ordeal! Hope you sren't still on so much pain! And at least they actually know what thre problem is and Z is A-ok. So cute about her kicking the pads off!

Hapi - I think the best thing to do is tacle each 'task' that is freaking you out one at a time. It all seems so overwhelming when you think about everything all at once. I'm a huge fan of lists - and I just love ticking things off them So satisfying! You will handle the c-sec like a champ, I'm sure. I've had 4 friends who've had c-sections in the last 6 months and they all recovered so amazingly! I always thought it would be so much worse but they have all done great. So I'm sure you will too!

Laliek - do you have any pics of C? So great that he is growing so nicely! Obviously very happy there
