November / December 2012 Babies

Hi ladies

I've been too busy laying around the pool and enjoying my maternity leave to actually pick up my laptop.

Punchysmum, good luck with the check up tomorrow. Hope everything goes well, and punchy behaves himself!

Clueless, really enjoy reading your posts. You make 1st time motherhood sound so easy!

Momtoc, I'm so sorry to hear about your sister. I hope that's the last time she has to be admitted now. Glad you enjoyed your shower, it's about time you got spoilt a little!

Mosaneo, at least you got to enjoy your shower with family. They the most important people anyway.

AFM, I'm still in Limpopo, I'm leaving tomorrow for JHB. Hopefully dh will take me shopping in the 'city'. He says I don't need anything more, but I feel so unprepared! I had a small baby shower at work, which was sweet of them, i got mostly money. I'm also having a big shower when I'm at home (dh already told me everything), and I know I should wait to see what I get there, but it's so far away (the 17th), I feel like I'm going to pop any minute!

Hope Punchy will hold on, you must take it easy and rest and i am sure he will chill as well. I hope the check up tomorrw will give you a two thumbs up.

Momtoc very nice with the shower. but srry your sis couldnt be there and that she is sick again, hope she gets better soon hey, being sick is not on, especially vomiting i hate it.

Mandri i also feel very restless at night, hardly get any sleep and i am tired during the day.

Morning ladies!

Clueless I love reading your updates! You let mommyhood sound so easy!

mosaneo - I agree with momtoc, you were surrounded by your family and that is the most important!

Punchy - take it easy my dear, we also don't want your little one going to NICU. Let us know tomorrow what the doc says!

momtoc - sounds like you are basically set now! Sorry that your sister is still not well!

AFM - everything is going well, just tired most of the time. Didn't sleep well last night and thus can't wait for bedtime! Going for a check up on Friday, can't wait to see our little man!

hey Momtoc
its so sad to hear about your sister so much pain she is going through...
i think i got the bug from swimming during the school holidays.
i took my daughter to emerald casino and we spent almost 5hrs swimming there and enjoying the water. apart from that i dont really think i got it anywhere else.
i will be going for a checkup tomorrow to see if all is well inside coz i am also praying each day that the bby stays in longer. i really dont want to go through the NICU issues etc. i am feeling drowsy and nauseas now and then maybe it’s the drips effects for my hands are really painful from all the needles they inserted.
my boss was so happy to see me but a bit worried as well, but i am ok

Good morning ladies

mosaneo, so nice of your family to throw you a babyshower & don't worry if non of the friends pitched. Atleast you were surrounded by family
Just try & take it easy today & see if the cramps disappear.
I'll update just now about my babyshower

Clueless, yah, so nice to hear from you. I was thinking about you on sat & then when I logged into moomie yesterday, I saw a post from you.
I'm glad everything is going so well, especially the breastfeeding! You are very lucky that DH is helping so much - it's wonderful!
As for the weight, how much did you pick up during your pregnancy? You do lose most of it after giving birth but there is always a case of some weight hanging around but the breastfeeding will help alot & get lots of water in
I think I picked up about 11kgs with my lg & lost 7 in less than 2 weeks after giving birth lol.

Punchysmum, glad to hear you are doing ok understand the circumstances. The longer punchy can stay in the better. Just try & take it easy pls!
Where did the ecoli infection come from?????? very very strange

MommyMo, enjoy the time at home. You are taking maternity leave early hey!

AFM, I had such a wonderful babyshower on sat. My friends really went through so much trouble. I will post pics once I get it & I KNOW I still need to post pics of my lg's party as well - I'm terrible!!!!!
Jayden got such nice things & now I know what I still need to get. I definitely need to stock up on toiletries & most definitely alot of wet wipes - didn't get alot of that but atleast I'm sorted for about 2 months with nappies.
Went & visited my sister at home yesterday cause she was admitted on thurs again! They had to stretch the pipe that goes to her stomach a bit more cause she couldn't eat & was throwing up the whole time. She was only discharged yesterday again so she couldn't make the babyshower. She has lost so much weight, it's scary
I've got a headache since yesterday afternoon & it's still lingering around. It is definitely stress related.

hi Ladies
i'm back at work to come sort my medical aid issues
i have a bit of pains still and was really feeling sick yesterday dont know why.
i think bby just wants me to sleep the whole day but that cant happen. i will really start to stress out.
i am going for a check up tomorrow and crossing fingers that my uterus is closed and bby can wait till the 20th then we can do the c-section which i am still not happy about.

how is everyone???

Good Morning ladies

hope yall had a great weekend. my family had a small shower for me and it was nice but none of the friends they invited showed up, imagine, but its cool at least i have my family. i have been having hectic cramps all weekend and even today and i am just praying for baby to hold on.

Clueless sounds like things are going very well for you, you must enjoy every moment with that little one, dnt worry bout the weight, she will suck it down, lol. Your husband deserves a medal

Punchysmum are you and Punchy still ok?

How was yall's weekends? Momtoc how was your shower?
