November / December 2012 Babies

Morning everyone

Welcome back BoomBoom!

Bondelq - I have something similar to the mexican bola. I got this as I thought the mexican bola is too expensive. Go have a look at:

Its R150 and really pretty, does exactly the same thing as the bola.

Okay so my pricing was wrong, my friend payed R400 at kids emporium for the bola, but I just saw if you buy directly from their site its cheaper.

Hi Ladies

I was chatting on the January 2013 mommies thread but it seems my c-section will fall in December so I decided to join this thread also.

I will be 38 weeks on 24th of December so I guess the c-section will be booked for around 27 December. Hopefully baby will surprise us on Christmas (which is also her daddy’s birthday).

I went for my 16 week scan on Saturday and doctor is guessing it’s a girl but we will make sure at our 20 weeks scan.

Have any of you ladies tried the Mexican bola? I’m really curious and think it will be the perfect “to me, from me” gift this payday .

Morning Ladies

Left with a BOOM and back with a BOOM...So yeah BoomBoom!!LOL

My LG is doing much better thank you Momtoc..Yeah Im looking into going for physio again or even going to see a chiro...Sorry for the silence, I was just so upset when I last visited and some people were just too insensitive towards what I was going through and decided to stay away and also I just got busy with work and everything!

Yeah, feels like now the other day I found out I was just 2 weeks pregnant..Cant wait for my maternity leave, really needing it!

So excited to see my baby tomorrow!!!

Morning ladies

Wow boomboom, you leave dramatically and you come back dramatically! Was wondering what happened to you? Hope your lg gets better soon, and congrats on team pink. Good luck with your appointment tomorrow, can't believe you 24 weeks again. Take it easy at work..just another few months then you on maternity leave

Ms_S, I definitely do agree with the blood vessel thing. You always have to be careful but luckily these things don't happening that often and for now we don't have to stress too much cause baby is still very tiny

The car situation sounds like a real pain in the behind. I hope you manage to sort it out quickly.

BB, welcome back & congrats on it being another girl.
Sjoe, I am exhausted from reading what you've been through......hectic is not the word.
How is your lg doing? I hope your back gets better soon. Maybe you should get to a physio?
Why have you been MIA for so long?

Hello Everyone!

Sjoe its been ages since I have been here...To think I started this thread and look how much it has grown!

Good to hear most of you are doing well besides all the flu and all.. Babyzee how is that virus coming on?

Well I am now 23 weeks going on 24 weeks, and have my next gynae appointment on Friday - so excited to see my little girl!Yep having another little girl...My daughter is over the moon about this!

So its been a hectic week and a half and this week Im recovery still but still in alot of pain..This is how it all started.

Sunday evening I was flat on the ground and while standing up I hurt my back tremendously that my daughter and my husband came running to check on me after hearing my scream, I couldnt move my husband had to carry me to the bed...My daughter so cute kept coming to ask me if im ok and rubbed my back, I didnt want to stay home and ended up coming to work to the "swine flu"

then tuesday, got worse and Wednesday even more...And then I get a call from my daughters school that she is not well and I get there and she is crying for me and complaining her head is sore...I take her to the doctor, only to be turned away and told sorry Doc has too many patients and cant see you today - go to another doctor and the same thing, doctor is leaving at 1:30 and cant see anymore patients - and been that the medical aid I am on we get ot have 2 registered GP's on the list and both of them now turned us away, so we had to go to a 3rd doctor that is not on our list, and you only get 1 of these visits a year...Waiting in the waiting room for about an hour, my daughter all of a sudden seems better fever is gone and everything, but still choose to wait and have her checked out!Doc says she is fine, checked her nose, ears, eyes, chest etc and everything was fine ... Said to monitor her as it might be a viral infection...

Anyways Thursday morning, i decide I cant face work today, and choose to take the day off with my back, and mistake was keeping my daughter at home too but kept her coz the previous night her fever shot up again...Friday morning came and I still couldnt move properly and stayed home...The afternoon comes, and there we noticedmy daughter has a rash on her entire body, rush her off to the doctor as I suspect its measles and it would be dangerous for me too..Call my gynae if she could see me and she is at a conference but advised she would check my blood levels.

So off I take my daughter to the doc cripple poor me and find out it is measles, doctor phones me back and says its safe I am immune to it but if I develop a rash I should come in and have blood tests taken, so now I am paranoid about getting a rash and start seeing funny things, but eventually I got thru the weekend.

This week its back to work and dealing with going up 2 flights of stairs eina eina but yeah trying to take it easy!

Hi everyone

Palesa, so glad you happy with your gynae. I hope to be so lucky too! May you have wonderful appointments with her ahead oh and congrats on team blue.

Babyzee, your pity party is not fun! I hope you get better soon, and nothing happens to your kids. Good luck finding someone to look after your kids in the meantime.

mosaneo, how is the auditing going? Your company doesn't play around hey.
Momtoc, the baby laying on a blood vessel is a very real thing. My SIL was in hospital for a few days because a blood vessel close to her vagina burst. I'm glad the 20 week scan went so well, sounds like the appointment was very exciting

AFM we changed my MIL's flight, so that she comes up mid August instead of this weekend cos our car isn't yet done. Our car has been standing at the panel beater for 10 days now, and the parts still haven't arrived yet. I wonder what was the point of fetching the car so early in the first place? They can't tell me when the car will be ready either. Its very frustrating cos now dh and I have started arguing about the stupid car. Me and this baby have been going to bed at 7:30pm every night this week to avoid questions about the car.
