Oct/Nov 2008 mommies!

Welcome Jogami. Yes lots of old hats here.

Vix love the picture!!!!!!!!

Low iron increased bp usually but yes Helen you would feel very dizzy etc with low bp. Not sure how you actually operated with such a low bp. Mine is usually 90/70 so I have to stand for a while after going in a lift etc and if I get up quickly I see lights etc.

Jogami- you are more than welcome to join us sweetie but our babies are Oct/Nov 2008 and about to turn 2 already, there is an October 2010 group, did you maybe get us confused? But still some of us are expecting again this year so you are welcome to chat with us!

Lisha...braaied soya and veggies? Hmm even I will say no thanks! lol

Vix i agree re: cash hey! I was lucky and I got good quality russel hobbs everything as wedding gifts...so I look at my toaster, kettle, sandwich press, coffee maker, iron, etc. And everything was a gift! 5 years later everything still works, except the iron that I dropped. Serving spoons, dinner sets, glasses, etc. My whole kitchen basically is made up of wedding gifts.
Edited to add: So i look at everything and can tell you who bought what and i think that's great!

The money we got we bought a tv with. And some went towards the wedding and other odds and ends. we have since sold the tv though...lol

I LOVED opening wedding presents!

But mostly people asking for cash these days have everything and I think the money we give goes towards extravagances or debt or a nice holiday???

Angie lol @ ag shit! Enjoy the weekend!

I am also going to be off soon!

Hi ladies ,

Hope I can join! Am new on this forum (well not new really , been stalking , but not really posting much! )

I'm 34 weeks on Saturday with our first , a son We are very excited.

My due date is 6 November but I'm having a csec so it 's been booked for 27 October. Technically, that makes me an October mommy LOL

Look forward to chatting to all of you and sharing experiences as we go through the last few weeks xxx

Ai Vix this is too cute!!!! Luv it!!!!!!! Is that the way you think they are lying at the moment!!!! Your bump looks way bigger from the front that from the side!!!

Helen, i don't know why us Brits suffer with low BP, it was probably 80/50 in that case but i do think the iron tablets work with the BP, mine hasn't been below 110/60 this whole pregnancy which is great.

o.k so today me& C had a lesson about how many babies we're going to get............................



here's a pic, you're gonna love it!!!!!

I am also almost off (going home early 2 days in a row) what a bonus!!!!!!!!!!!!! So thought i'll pop in to say - hope everyone has a lovely long weekend, and that all babies sleep well and behave well, so that all mommies ca have a nice peaceful rest weekend! Well, that's what I'm wishing for myself!

Helen - sjoe that bloodpressure is low! I also struggle with low bloodpressure, and had it while pregnant with CJ! That is probably the reason why you have felt so tired and without energy the last few weeks! Low bloodpressures biggest symptom is tiredness, lack of energy. Luckily it isn't harmful to baby or mommy (expect for feeling tired). Low BP is much safer than high BP! What I do and did during my pregnancy when I felt tired I ate a sarmie with marmite on, or had a spoonful of Marmite disolved in luke warm water. You can also eat liquorice - that helped me a lot! Don't know why - thought it was a old wives tale - but it definitely worked for me!

Julz - interesting morning!

Simone - LOL at Addy copying b*$ch! Cj copies me, I have a really bad habit of saying shit. Now when he bumps his toe or whatever, he says ag shit! Really embarrassing, but we try not to say or do anything just ignore it - hopefully it would pass if we ignore it!

Anyway - that's all from me!

Have a nice day and long weekend ladies!!!!

Bye - bye!
