Oct/Nov 2008 mommies!

hahaha ladies I always crave McD's cajun chicken burger That may be why Shrey loves their chicken nuggets.

Vix thanks for the instructions, I will print it for her. I think the little girl is constipated very often ... she's about 14 months now.

Leigh also no humidifier or nebuliser in our houser. But (touch wood) Shrey is rarely been ill so we haven't had a desperate need for one yet.
Also curious to know what you asked Ainsley!!!

Vix hope you get an early night, I know I need one as well after watching soccer till the end and then still being woken by Shrey twice last night. I think he will also sleep poorly till those incisors cut through and it's been threatning to for a while now grrrrrr. That's the only explanation I can find for night time wakings these days ... dh sounding fed up too but I said there isn't anything we can do till this teething is over.

With leigh being such a good baker i smell yummy cupcakes and divine cakes for our meets.

Leigh are you joning us for our next meet 24 July.


guys talk about budget shopping. Im learning to be the queen of factory shopping. be it it clothes anything i can get my hands on. im always on the look out for specials.

Food is pricey, our electricity. I need to learn how budget and stick to it.

Nope i dont have a nebuliser, i have a humidifier.

Buhle used the nebuliser when she was at the gp.

I also used to crave McD's cheeseburgers when I was preggie!! LOL

Leigh I don't nebulise either. I take Dylan to the physio if he is that sick for treatment. Just refer them doing it.

Leigh- ha ha ha, ready steady cook, what did you ask? I also love Ainsley he's so much fun!

Lisha- the tea doesn't come with instructions and I do really suggest the following guidelines for babies and kids because I learnt the hard way with a cot covered in runny poo at 2.30am and a baby that couldn't stop pooing LOL

Make 1 tea bag with 300ml boiling water
Brew for a minimum of 30min but preferably over night if possible
First try giving in smaller quantities working up 25ml at a time so I would say from 6m 50-75ml, if the child still doesn't poo wirthin 24hrs give 100ml if still nothing 125ml etc until you find the right amount for your child. (C needs to have 125-150ml every day or he doesn't poo at all)
Give anytime before midday. It can take up to 8hrs to work it's way through the system and no one wants to clean up poo in the night.
C has 150ml per day mixed with a little milk to help the taste, so I make 1 bag every 2 days and he has to have it every day but if the tea is for occasional constipation and you only use 100ml on odd days you can freeze the remaining 200ml in 2 containers for the next 2 occasions.

Enigma- Hi, Poor Zaid! He had a hectic weekend by the sound of it LOL

Nicole- I am so excited for you to get married and post pics!!!!! Poor K's tummy! X

I've never thought to try C on McDks nuggests, we never really use MacD's but when I'm pregnant for some reason I crave their cheese burgers (silly I know) with C I went every wednesday lunchtime to get myself 2 cheeseburgers and a milkshake, stuff my face then walk it off round BabyCity dreaming of my monter to come! LOL Now I have to get for C too and he doesn't half make a mess of the car LOL guess we'll soon have to go sit inside MacD's to eat our weekly craving. When the twins are here there's no way I will leave my car for food, drive thru's all the way! LOL

Hi Enigma

Leigh it is usually just Lelani, Angelique yoza and myself. Sometimes one of us can't make it. Not easy to arrange a date to suite everyone. Nayeela has joined us and Angies sil. All boys usually apart from Nayeel's little girl and Bhule now. So we take it in turns hosting and the host provides a cupcake or two.

Leigh, we don't have a neubilizer or a himidifier either

In Jhb there can be from 2/3 to 10 of us at a meet (am I correct Vix?). When its 2/3 its usually Vix meeting Nelria and/or Ally, but I guess you can't really count that as a meeting?
It just depends on who can make it.

Yes, Lelani, how are you?
