Oct/Nov 2008 mommies!

Morning moms

Hope you dont mind just want to share some pics of Zaid .

Morning ladies,

Just a quick pop in, haven't had time to catch up properly so will do that just now.

All went well at the doc, can you believe it I've lost a kilo in the last 3 weeks?! No idea how that is happening as I'm eating like a horse but doc is not concerned as baby is looking very healthy. In fact, he estimates he/she to be clocking 1.9kg already, that's even bigger than Oliver was at this stage and is actually off the growth chart lol. I think my chances of natural birth are getting slimmer as time passes...this might sound awful but hopefully you'll understand, in some ways I hope the decision is made for me in terms of birth i.e if the baby is lying breech then a C-section would be the best option. I'm terrified of deciding to go natural but then causing damage to myself which could've been avoided...still, at least there's a few weeks until I have to make any decisions.

I'm well, he's given me iron supplements which should help with everything and the reason I'm probably feeling tired etc is because my blood pressure is so low (50/80 I think he said...I never know what the numbers mean, he just said its unusually low, even for me). He always says that its nothing to worry about as long as I'm not feeling faint or anything, better to have low BP than high

And here's a pic for you, let the guessing games begin, boy or girl lol...?!

Hi mommies!

Julz I posted on the thread to help the family in need!
Hope you and Dylan feel better today!

Ally - so excited for you for the shoot coming up - it's going to open so many doors for you and put you on the map!!!

We had another rough night - I really don't know what it is and it's scaring me as I don't know my child like this, he screams blue murder and moans a lot in his sleep - do you think it could be nightmares??? I don't know if it could happen 2 nights in a row. It's just funny coz he has no symptoms of anything, no fever nothing - maybe it's just his teeth??? I feel so helpless as I don't know what to do or what to give him, as I cant find anything wrong with him! Advice ladies!

You all must have a lovely day! It's DH birthday today - so want to try and go home a little earlier and surprise him with a nice cooked three course meal.... Will try and pop in again later if I have time!

Morning ladies

Mandy sorry Cam is giving you a hard time, I do hope he gets easier soon ... hang in there mummy xxx

Julz I'll just send cash with my package instead of toys or clothes then Nelria if you don't mind please can you buy whatever dry goods you can get with it. We take so much for granted and it's a real eye opener when you hear of people struggling like this.

We had a okay night. Shrey still isn't eating well but we realised that may be the impact of the Augmentin so we've stopped it. A week of antibiotics seems to be too long!!! I know we're meant to finish the course but he's a lot better so thought we'd take the chance.

Have a great day ladies, it's nice & hot in Dbn again but think we may be in for some cold weather again.

Hello guys

just popping my head in. HAvent had a chance to catch up for the last week. We had a wonderful holiday. Cam has become the most clingy baby in the universe. He will NOT go to his dad even and cries to go to school each morning. Im feeling a bit suffocated but trying to be really patient and even more loving to help him cope.. I do leave him when its time to go with confidence hoping that he will understand that I go and i love him but i come back.. anyhoo - hope you are all well and missing you lots and I will catch up when i can..

hi ladies

This is an important post!!!

One of our moomie moms is in need in a big way. Nelria is doing an amazing job in collecting for the mom, so I ask that if you can spare some dry food, an old toy, a couple nappies for a 2 month old then that would be awesome.

If you could take it along to the baby shower on the 3rd, Nelria will ensure Simone gets the goodies.

She is in need of baby clothes age 3-6 months.

If you need more info then email me please.

Jess, happy you're immune!
