Oct/Nov 2008 mommies!

Leigh- maybe first buy a half litre of half fat milk, maybe the full cream is just too rich for her, if she doesn't like it then it was only a few rands spent trying. I took C off the formula, oooo wow I can't even remember, I think at about 10m because we just couldn't afford it anymore with the amount he drinks. My boy now drinks anything up to 1.5 sometimes 2l milk a day. He does still take a bottle though, like Julz, I'm just going to wait a bit longer to mmove him from the bottle because I can see he 'needs' it like his dummy. I want to be especially careful now with the twins coming that he doesn't feel they've taken his things.

I must say though, I know C drinks too much milk and the bottle is not good for his teeth but the only other thing he drinks is water so compared to some kids drinking Coke, Juice or Oros it can't be that bad and he doesn't do sweets either, rather biltong and ham LOL

The weather is a bit better this afternoon, I wonder if DH will feel like a Braai? Maybe I should go get some meat and rolls because I definately don't feel like cooking. Braai is always a good way to get out of cooking, I mean really which man is going to say no to a braai? LOL

Love the cakes ladies! C will just get a plain cake with bugs on and I'll probably get my mum to make it seeing as I will be big and fat by then. One day when C is big enough to appreciate fine artwork I will spend money and buy in fancy cakes, until then he'll get home made specials. We're not having a party anyway.

I told DH, I want to have the babies room ready in November because I will be 30+w then and you just never know when they may appear. But then I realised, Nov isn't so long away really LOL

Ally- wow R1200 for the FA, I think I will ask Dr if I will need one of those before I pay R580 for a 4D. At least I know they should be able to give me answers on the sex at FA scan. Did you have to still visit your gynae that month aswell or did the FA take it's place? I wonder if I can get FA covered on PMB with twins? Mmm sorry my mind is ticking over, I'll be skint by the time the twins are here LOL well, I'll have nappies at least LOL

Hi

jeezzzz how much have a I missed since I logged on yesterday?

I see we have some new faces to the group - welcome!

and then we have a return of a long-lost friend!! BIG WELCOME BACK Zamzie!

Ai, Bryce was up this morning at 04h30! I swear he just suddenly thought of something to tell me at that time of the morning because I was just so tired so I went in and picked him up & put him in bed with me (1st big mistake) where he settled in for a bit for a cuddle but then started japping & chatting like he was telling me the most exciting news! And then while I'm half asleep I answer him with "uh huh regtig" (there's my 2nd mistake) and that sets him off talking second to none! I'm tired and this day just doesn't want to end!

Tooambitious ...Wow your baking is stunning .

Leigh Erin is gorgeous ... Dylan has good taste
That wonky cake is copl.

Re the milk I cannot offer any advice as I have the biggest monster when it came to bottle feeding ... he hated it and only really drinks nicely from bottle now that he's having full cream milk.

Wish this day was over already ... I want to sleep but have looong evening still to go ...

She's on the NAN3.

What formula is Erin on leigh?

And then what I really don't want to do is go and buy another small tin of formulae and she doesn't want the bottle, the sippy cup or the formulae - thats just a waste of money.

What to do, what do do.
