Hi girls
I am swamped with studies and Nienke, so not getting much time to chat.
Going well. Not sleeping today, my nap time has to make time for study time.
Mariet's son was born over the weekend. He weighs 2.4kg's and is still in ICU. They are both doing well and he is GORGEOUS. Cannot wait to go see him but she's still a bit sick, so I have to wait.

As soon as he suckles on his own, he can go home.
Elrike, bly jou man het van plan verander. Dis nie lekker om nou alleen te wees nie, die toddlers is te BESIG.
Lizel, het jy al daai link spinningbabies gesien? Jy kan in allerhande posisies sit elke dag om haar te laat draai. Sit en kyk sommer tv op 'n exercise bal. Ek sit ook elke dag op bal.
Lindy, I'm sure that's fine. All babies differ. This boy is smaller than Nienke was. She was 1.9kg's at 29 weeks! HUGE. She grew REALLY fast and was born @ 38 weeks weighing 3.5kg's.

So at least this boy baby will be less when born. Easier to birth, I presume.

I have no idea why he is smaller.
Chanz, how's the milk supply? Pleasure! I also fed on demand. Some weeks Nienke fed every half hour, others four hourly. I just went with what she wanted.

Lindy, I also have the mini Medela electric. It worked well, I just thought it took so LONG to express. I'm not a good "expresser". Prefer to feed. You can just sanitize it with boiling water and some milton. It will be fine.
Oh my word, Bulel, you ARE tiny! So nice of your work about the party.
Wow Joey, that sounds so emotional. How are you feeling? Congrats on Riley! He is an amazing weight and thank goodness you had a fab doctor who knew what to do!
Elrike, Nienke is ook nou deesdae 'n "babatjie". Kruip tot op die vloer! My play therapist vriendin se ons moet hulle dit toelaat en hulle indulge.
Tanz, probeer hypnobirthing videos kyk. Die "violent" birthing videos freak mens uit. Die kalm videos laat mens sommer beter voel!
Bulel, wow, it's almost time! Any day now...
Have a nice day, girls. I have to go and study.
