Oktober & November 2011 Mammas

Hi girls

CHAOTIC day. It's always chaotic when I am at home. I take my hat off to ALL SAHM's and now I'm going to become one. The days are just CRAZY. I promise you I get so much more done when I am at work.
BUT I enjoy it so much.

Lizel, daai video is omtrent amazing.

Welcome Bulelwarm! Please tell more about your planned homebirth. It's so exciting!

Lindy, shame, I feel for you. It must be reallyl stressful that hubby is going away. My hubby worked away a lot as well and I also worried about that. I said he is not allowed to go out of the country in July but my due date was 21 July.
Just remember, MOSTLY, first babies come a bit late. At the earliest your baby will possibly come at 38 weeks if all goes well but I agree with Bulelwarm, talk to your baby. Tell her daddy is going to China and while you dont want to tell her what to do, it would be great if she can hang on till a bit longer. At least your due date is only in December. Just pray and believe it will all work out. Then take it VERY EASY from now on.

We decided on Nienke's name the evening before she was born. I really like Kate.

Elrike, jou baba is 'n baie lekker gewig. Yay vir 'n datum! My eksamen maak op sy geboorte datum klaar.

Bulelwarm, you have a beautiful tummy.

Claire, you look great to me! Nienke has ALWAYS been clingy, so I don't reallly notice a change. She is obsessed with her mom and has been since day one and it's never changed. So yes, she is still clingy but not more than other times. I also have to carry her and I really can't anymore, she is getting too heavy. She sits on top of me all the time , which I can handle but what I can't handle, is her sticking her elbow into my tummy when she readjusts her position. SORE.

Claire and Elrike, have you considered going to a chiro for your backs? It works WONDERS! I have been for two sessions and NO MORE back pain. Really amazing. Elrike, probeer ook as jy saam met Luwan swem net bietjie borsslag-skop. Al hou jy vas teen die rand en skop so. So 10 na 20 keer. Dit help om joints los te maak en dit help vir pyn. Kan nie vir jou se watter verskil dit vir my maak nie.

Lizel, hoe voel jy nou? I read on our thread you are a bit down about Zelri. I also feel like that lots of times but am trying to really keep her involved with everything and she talks to baby and I tell her how much her brother loves her etc etc. It's difficult but I think completely normal for us to feel like that.

Was it Tanz who said she also had sex dreams? I think it's normal but YO! Last time I was pregnant, I dreamt about this rescue worker at the SAPS and this time AGAIN!!! Hahaha! (I did tell my hubby though.) So weird because he really isn't my cup of tea AT ALL. Lately I have just been having very erotic dreams about my husband. Which explains a lot, since he thinks its completely weird to shag with my massive tummy and baby kicking him in his back when I try and cuddle him doesn't really help to get the groove on.
