Oct/Nov 2008 mommies!

Julz I can eat biryani everyday! And not to be vain...but my own at that! Massage and a real indian biryani...sounds divine!

Lwasi when are u possibly leaving my friend? Lol @ terrible two's! Comes with the territory!

I have a post on the March GHD forum for TOP TIPS. If I get a lot of replies and its interesting I win a ghd! Now our kind friend Vix has donated time and resources to this to help me win...so the person with most replies or tips will 'win' a prize each week til end March. If that's not great already...ALL tips go into a document that will then be made available on the website (not sure how admin is going to use it), but it'll be available for all new and preggy moms! So even if u don't wanna win, any tips will prove to be wonderful nuggets of wisdom for a new emotional mommy...and the new mom's are quite excited about it!

Thanks to you ladies that are posting...really also hope Moomie gets more members through this and BABYBEAR gets some business...no..A LOT of business! Oh and it wouldn't hurt if I won a ghd in the process:-) vix has honestly been amazing to help me!!!!!

Vix speaking of ghd, have u received yours yet? We want before and after pics!!!

hi mommies,

I know i am MIA but I am running around my friends with this USA thing.

Myself and Am goot better but shoo he is so clingy/mavas, crying all the time wanting to be picked up, man its tiring and he wants me alone but when im not around he behaves fine. So I think the terrible twos just hit us man I dont think I like what I see

Helen am so sorry about Nina bieng sick but I agree with the other ladies explain it like u just did to us..al the best for tomorrow then

Ally am sure ur going to enjoy the cooking lessons, I hope u get to have a lot of that business on the sides, hey

Vix favouratism is there as Simone said I guess as children grow and develop their characters/personalities u develop special preferences

Nel am not sure if i misd it, but congrats on selling/buying ur house (sorry if i got it mixed up)

Simone what post are u guys talking about? the one u have not marketed in two days

Nicole so good that ur getting spoilt by hubby u deserve it

Christi all the best with ur test and exam over the weekend...superwoman

Everyone hello Lisha, Yoza, Juls, Lelanie, Pfairy, sorry if I missed anyone... Love u all

Hi ladies

Got some drama here but all sorted. All the good my massage has done is gone out the window. Neil is taking me for another when i get back for our anniversary which I really need!

Helen I agree with the ladies. Rather see a paed and tell him everything even if you think it is rediculous! I have heard of colic later but it isn't common so maybe a milk issue although those babies don't thrive and vomit quite a bit. It may very well be reflux, but the doc will sort it out. xxx

Vix we have this notion that we have to like our kids, but sometimes we are just not well suited to each other so please don't stress, I am worried about the way you feel about your feelings. I know this is hectic but I recon you could do with a couple therapy sessions just to get your feelings out there. C might be feeling your frustration in him and acting out. Kids are really sensitive so it may be a cycle between you. Maybe even play therapy with C. I must assure you though that it is normal of kids this age to push parents away when there is a big change like school. My therapist warned me that when i return from a trip Dylan may push me away as if cross with me. It is perfectly normal. Not nice for us though. Hugs to you. x

Lisha I had breyani (SP?) last night. It was wonderful. Need to go on diet. I have picked up 4 kg in 2 months!!!!!!

Nicole wheel on the bus is one of the best. Dylan loves it.

Okay not much else to say at the moment.

Issues here mean I have another 2am wakeup call tomorrow morning so need to chill now.

Helen lets us know how it went, shame poor baby

Ally good luck with the cooking lessons, im sure it will be tons of fun

No Vix...leave the marketing today...do your house work and get some rest!

Ally you should hire Vix as your PR person!

Helen so glad u got earlier appointment...keep us updated!

Ally- good luck with the cooking lessons. I'm sure the extra money will really help. Have you considered approaching Kahlula about a possible sponsorship for advertizing? I think your blog etc is well enough viewd to qualify. Even approach a few hire car places. Doesn't hurt to try and you can sneak in a mention that you are flying down to CT for a Pasella shoot too!

Simone- I have to do my house work today because I have been slacking but I'll try and get on the PC this afternoon and do some more marketing of your thread.

Thanks for the support ladies, I've actually phoned and changed our appointment from Friday to tomorrow because she's been in pain again this morning so I don't want to wait until Friday and have 2 days of worrying. Its horrible knowing that there's something wrong but not having a clue what it could be, especially as some days she's totally fine and then others are just plain awful. The weird thing is that she never fusses in the night but then I suppose that's because she doesn't have a feed...She's started waking at 4am for the last week or so for a feed which is a bit of a bummer and makes me think she's ready for solids (she had been sleeping comfortably until 6-6.30am) but I don't want to start solids until I find out what's causing everything else. The paed is very thorough and nice and he always says if I think there is something wrong then there probably is - he believes a mother's instinct can usually be trusted so I don't know why I'm so concerned about it, I think its because I've taken her to 2 doctors who have told me there's nothing wrong and made me feel stupid even though I walk out of the surgery not convinced that she's well.

Vix - Sorry you're having a rough time with C, I agree, he probably needs some special time with you, he will come round

Damn and before I can reply more she's screaming again so I must go. Thanks again ladies XxX
