Oct/Nov 2008 mommies!

lol Ally Dylan has always passed massive stools so we are used to it. I do know that they are larger when he is a bit consitpated. He upped his liquid intake this weekend and he has smaller stools. Ya I had no idea a small child could pass such large ones.

Simone sorry about not feeling great. The asic helped me. Are you taking mulitivits? Think about stopping them and just using folic acid on it's own. The mulitvits made me really sick due to the gelatine in them.

Ladies, this might be a bit gross, but are you also shocked at the size of the poo's these kids are making. C and I could not stop laughing the other day. Aidan made a poo and there were 3 giant turds in the toilet. I thought it was C's lmao! I really could not believe that amount of poop came out of my child! Sorry but I had to find out if it's just my child making gigantic poos!

Shame man Sim! horrible preg symptoms but HOW EXCITING for your scan, with yours so close, makes mine feel closer

Zee when is your next one? and CHRISDA ?? where are you honey? How are you coping!? and ANKIA too? soooo many preggie Fairies!

Morning ladies

Nelria if you love the water...you cant go wrong doing water aerobics. Feels like cheating cause you dont feel like its an effort to go! lol @ dstv! I am quite glad its back on....no idea for how long though:-(

Lelani I am SOOOOOO HAPPY that things are improving in your side:-) R72 for wine??? Goodness! I'm glad it was good though. What's a 'kermis'???? and a 6w old??? To cute! I agree with mandy..when I look at babies I feel like I've never done it before:S

Zee how was the expo??? When is Dh coming back?

Mandy fx you get what you're asking for your place! Sorry cant help re: sleep....i imagine the fact that he wants it light plays a part. Since it is darker in the morning my child sleeps til 8am some mornings now. She asks for the lights to be put off at night so she can sleep. Somehow you need him to get used to a darker room I think.....


Nicole and Ally sounds like you had nice weekends:-)

Julz that sucks re: the helper! And its so difficult finding somebody new to help you:-(

Mandy...bouts of nausea??? I am nauseous ALL day. I walk around with Asic...sometimes I take one just before bed as well...but I try and resist during the day...but sometimes I pop one. Cold water makes me gag, room temp water makes me gag....food totally off putting. I cant believe I am feeling like this so early. This baby is eager to get this process started! lol. And I am exhausted! Slept for 12-13hrs Friday night and woke up still tired....eish! But all signs of a healthy pregnancy....so not complaining. Cant wait for scan! One week and one day to go

Morning gals

Lelani I am pleased that things are a bit better on the home front. Still good to chat to someone. x

Mandy I hope you get your asking price and that you find a place you will both love! I am not sure what to tell you regarding the early riser. Dylan was the same but for the last few weeks he was been sleeping later. He still gets up at 5 but comes to our bed and sleeps till 6 30 or 7 which is amazing!!!! We leave the bathroom light on only so his room is dark. The resident pharm. did say that light can prevent sleep induction. Interesting. In CT it is dark until 7 which may be why Dylan is prepared to go back to sleep. Love it.

Zee how was barnie???

Feeling okay. Still got a bad chest but that is fine. I just wish the headaches would go now!

We relaxed a great deal. I went out to a baby shower on Sat afternoon. Dylan slept for the full 3 hours that I was away!!! Yesterday we had a 2 hour nap too which was soooo nice. The great part is that he goes to bed as normal and sleeps so no complaints from my side.


He is doing well on the pooty training side. starting to poo alot only problem is that he insists on sitting there for 30 minutes to poo and empties the pot after each little stool. It takes forever!!!!!!

My maid has been missing for more than a week now, so I will send her last money over to my neighbour on Thursday and I will look for another person. I know she is having house issues, but she worked on thursday next door yet not by me. We initially fetched her from the main road, but she let us down a few times so we then said she must make her own way to us and we paid her extra and I think this is the problem. I just can't sit waiting on voortrekker road for an hour each morning for her.

Morning Ladies

I hope everyone had a good weekend?

Zee how was the weekend alone with Z? Did she enjoy Barney? How is the pregnancy going?

Mandy fx that you get your asking price and you guys find a stunning place. Sorry i have no advice as K was also doing that at one point but has stopped now and sleeps til 06:30, i didnt do a change in routine or anything. Hope the other ladies might be of some help. xx

Ally sounds like you had a lovely weekend.

afu, our weekend was good, but Saturday was the first time ever that K didnt have a mid - day nap!! He started getting really tired at about 17:30, so he ate supper, watched a bit of tv and i popped him in the shower etc and he was fast asleep by 18:30 - 2 hours earlier than normal. On Sunday we took him to the lion park again,we all had such fun.

Other than that, not much to report on. Will come and do a post later again.

(always feel so crappy on a Monday morning)

Hi ladies.

Our weekend was lovely. Went to friends for lunch on Saturday and the twins had a ball. Then C and I went for a movie and lunch yesterday. Just what we needed.

Mandy, hope you get a nice place! And the you get the asking price for your current house. No news yet...
