August-September 2010 Moms

Blessed - the pics from your photoshoot are GORGEOUS!!!

Im 32W and very uncomfortable, especially when im at work. I use the big exercise ball to sit on as it's so comfortable but keep forgetting to bring it to work.

Find that i get breathless from doing the smallest thing like getting up! Yesterday afternoon i started getting period like pains and almost thought this was it! But it stopped after a while.

Good morning from a wet and cold Bantry Bay!!!

HAPPY BELATED birthday Robyn_C!!!! I hope you had a fantastic birthday.

Naikza - I do hope your son is better.

Girly - all the best with your appointment today. I pray that your DH gets the job and that everything works out for you at work.

Both you and BabyZee must check out these websites for advise

Morning girls

Blessed those are STUNNING photo's!!! Gosh really really nice my friend!

One thing I havent budgeted for is a maternity shoot. I'd love one, but just dont think we can afford it. Maybe I'll put it on my babyshower wishlist.

Babyzee I think you need to get clariy, unless I am misunderstanding. Are you being retrenched? Or will they keep another position available for you? They cannot retrench you if they plan on filling the position, as they would have no legal valid means of doing so. Only if the position is being made redundant can they retrench you, in which case you are entitled to a retrenchment package.
If you still have a 'job' but not in your career path, then you might want to look for another one while you are on M/L. But just check company's M/L clause. If they are paying you during M/L, even a portion, there might be a clause about returning to the company for 6 months or something afterwards or pay the amount back.
Sorry for my detailed reply. I was upset last night when I read your msg. We shouldnt have to go thru this now! But again, I have faith that things happen as they should, so maybe a better opportunity will come your way?

Naikza good luck with working from home. I hope they wont expect you to do too much, cos being a mom is a full time job!

Girls I was thinking about it this morning.
For some of you, a month from now your baby's might be here already if we have some early arrivals which seems quite common!!!
I'm gonna need some company towards the end though, cos I think Kaylee will be late...

Charnenay where are you? I sent you a MSG yesterday, but starting to wonder if maybe you're in hospital? Hope everything is okay.

I am having really bad pubic bone pain since Monday. I think the driving is aggrevating it. Will call gynae today, and hear where I can get a support girdle from (feel like an old woman!) and what else I can do, cos this aint cool I really wish my boss would just let me work from home already but he's quite a nuisance these days, and his wife is now 14w pregnant with No 2 so I'd think he'd be more understanding.

I am going for my 3D scan at Panorama today!!! Can't wait!
My cold is getting better, but cause my nose is more clear today, my sinus headache is quite bad But at least it seems to be coming to an end.

Sorry for selfish & long post as always!

Girly i hope things work out for you and you get maximum out of it.

Blessed wow your pics are great, i am sure whatever decision you will make will be right.

AFM well this been a crazy afternoon after giving four year of my time to the company the director call me in and says June will be my last month as project manager, they have to get someone to replace me when i go on leave its hurts and i am really upset, DH was retrenched last June and since then started working from for himself for home making websites its picking up well but its so unpredictable. I have to find an alternative soon before i have baba.

Blessed absolutely beautiful picture, you look like an angel

Naikza, im also wroking from home if its urgent, they got me a laptop and 3g card.

Girly hope all goes well and that DH gets the job. I believe everything works out in the end.
