Oct/Nov 2008 mommies!

Vix!!! When do you sleep!! you need rest more than anything right now , NAUGHTY! I hope you nap when C naps today so that you can catch up a little.

Zee - forgot to say about cams cheeks, - interesting story of what worked.. The dermatologist prescribed advantan - which is a strong cortisone treatment and it was the ONLY thing that worked after trying vaseline, epimax, aqueous and another prescribed cream from the paed.. so I filled the prescription as i had none left ( R180 !!) and although it would start to clear the cheeks up, within 24hrs, it was returning and was a never ending cycle! so, by chance, I got a freebie when buying elizabeth arden facecream. Im sure most of you will know it, 8 hour cream and the lady said she even uses it for her babies nappy rash, so i smeared it on.. and WOW it works even better than advantan! smooth soft cheeks by the next morning and i think i used it for 3 nights and now i havent had to use it for about 5 days!!

Simone- yes we really do speak like that, pile of pants is a fairly well used term to explain something shite! I was stood in the fabric shop the other day and they didn't have something I needed so I said "oh bollocks" and everyone looked at me like a weirdo. My nephew always jokes when he see's me " oh bloody hell" LOL I still use a lot of British sayings and forget until people look at me oddly.

Julz- glad you had a nice weekend, sounds really relaxing, I watched the wales lat time I was in the cape ooooo 2003 or 4 I can't remember, 2004 I think when I was there with the show.

I have said (even when I thought it was 1 baby) I will have the anti depressants in my hand when I leave the hospital this time, I was silly to wait til 5m

Mandy- Elwyn kept telling me off for yelling and F'ing at the TV during the match, I think it would've been better if I was in the pub LOL

I will make a copy if the DVD for you to watch and bring it along next time. I actually mentioned to Zee on friday that I need to see my buddies soon! Only things are pretty hectic for me at the moment on time and of course money so don't know if I will afford a yeesh visit, DH is getting edgy about cash flow now we have 2 on the way. Maybe is there a petting Zoo or something we can do which won't cost a fortune but keep the kids entertained? As for date, I will probably agree but have to confirm closer to time because I might attend the multiples seminar one weekend and on the others I really want to re organise my house and see what baby stuff I have etc and can only do it when Elwyn is at home, besides, I am now being treated like a cripple and have restricted allowences for doing my own thing.

The DVD was really great, but I must say It's worth to watch the singleton one first then the multiples one but very very interesting. And also re assuring, Fraternal twins seem to have the best set up inutero and also stay in the longest and grow the biggest. The one lady went to 38w and had a 3kg baby and a 2.75kg baby and BF straight away. I am determined to care for my body and go as far as I can! Although 38w lands directly on christmas day LOL

Helen- I also said to Nelria and ally on thursday that I fell a bit 'detatched' from this pregnancy, not in a bad way but just because I'm so much calmer. Well of course that all changed on friday and now I'm as stressed as with no1 LOL but I said to Elwyn tonight, My symptoms are way less that last time and maybe it's just because we're so busy with the 1st.

I'm soooo tired I forgot what I read already so I'll chat again tmorrow.

Love to all

Oh helen...i swear u and Vix say these things just to crack me up!LMAO! How Pants was that footie??? Do u guys really talk like that? Lol.i'd love it!!!

so Mandy its only been cam and Addy to throw themselves from cot? Addison had nothing to land on...learnt hard way and never did it again! She threatens sometimes when we are ignoring her in cot and she wants out...she puts her body over...stares at us (silently praying we don't let her go thru with it I think.lol) then I stare at her and say no....and then she puts her foot back in cot.

Oh Zee...i'm so jealous! Enjoy the baby free night! How does she sleep at your mom's? Does she wake up alot!

Hey Vix, Elwyn is a gem, that dvd sounds like just what you need I would love to watch it sometime too, I saw part of it on nat geographic too and loved it ..

Julz - I really wish you luck tomorrow, you really do have so much passion to give and i really hope its everything you hope at the interview.. tell us more when you can, i am intrigued!

Ally - cam also slept for one hour on saturday and drove us crazy all afternoon half tired!

Zee - lucky to have a nice quiet night

Pfairy - sho, your dads b day sounds so well catered for, sorry Mia isnt sleeping, pretty amazing that you managed to make all that food with Mia not sleeping!

Nelria - how are you? and how is it going with babas? How is Xens cold and are you getting any sleep my dear?

Oh well, Vix, my hubby is a big england supporter and we went to watch the game at a bar and restuarant.. he and his mates were so so bumbed!

Gals - im dying to see the gautengers again, can we make a date in a month or so? Should we try to make it to yeesh?

Oh I bought Addy the cutest cerise boots at edgars...so fitted it on at till. She is trying to take her other shoe off so she can wear it straight out of the shop.lol. So she stood on the counter shouting 'pretty pretty!'lol. It was so cute.
