jo c- sorry you not feeling well !! hope you are feeling better soon!

patty and sindy d - so nice you had your b showers.. so exciting. glad you got spoilt.


anyhow will spk to you guys later, very busy at the office.

Hi there ladies,

Sorry for being so scarce. Last day to submit IRP5's so been at work since very early.

Patty- use the Sunlight baby powder and Sta Soft baby for at least the first few months. The other detergents are too harsh for babies skin.

Newbie- Well done for standing yup for yourself. Now they will all know where they stand with you. I am all for that. The partners in our firm know my limits and know not to push them too much. I made that clear from the time I started here.

Jo- I hope you feel better soon.

Ladies- if you can get away for a weekend with your DH before baby comes please do. We had such a stunning weekend relaxing and chatting. I know it will be a loooong time until we do it again.

Last night I had two hours of very strong contractions about 12 mins apart. My DH was stressing. Even my cat was pacing up and down the couch the whole time as if she sensed something. I also had shooting pains up my vagina. But it all seemed to ease and today has been ok. Baby needs to stay in at least another 2 weeks so really hope it was just that I was stressing about all the work I had to do today.

DH is now lecturing me on relaxing and that I need to start taking it easy!

Hi girls

Phew what a day, just feeling down with re to everything that has happened, its really been all so unnecessary.. Anyhow went in early to the office before my trip to wellington to see clients and told my boss I have had enough, I am preg, not stupid and I want the names of the people spreading stories and a written statement from those who told her and I will be going to see a lawyer. Its deformation of character and I wont stand for it. Lets just say it went well, I think she was a bit shocked as I am not the type of person to stand up for myself.. lol.. Wow it took a lot but glad I could hold my head up high when I walked out, not like Friday when I was crying in her office.. I was so mad with myself as I came home and lit a cigarette, that’s how stressed I was… At least it was only one. But still, its been tough to say the least to give up, and I still crave one every day!!

mjabu – super about ur leave, I am seriously considering asking dr to book me off for a week due to stress.. Happy birthday for tomorrow, just in case I forget now. Thanks about the 4D scan, I also love it. Thanks about the 4D scan, I also love it.. Enjoy ur pampering day.. As for pram, I also bought a travel system, with baby chair.. I think I will use it a lot.. as after a c-section I wont really be able to carry my LG everywhere..

ashbabe – all I can say is look after urself, we are all thinking of u.. Give ur daughter lots of love and reassurance.. She is just worried about u. Take it easy and I know u will get through all of this..

Sindy_D – good on u for washing all, I also did it when I got back. I got lots of 3-6 months, so I still had to buy newborn… I am also nervous about the arrival of my LG.. we are actually so silly, we should just relax and enjoy.. As for ML, I cannot wait… Just wish it wasn’t so long away..

Patty – haha my hubby said something similar, “worry about it when they stop talking about u”. lol but its just been pushed a bit far, even bringing my preg into it and the stability of my marriage.. just had enough.
Glad ur baby shower was great.. I would use sunlight, that’s what they recommend.. However I have heard that any washing powder is fine as long as it is rinsed properly..

Jo_C – AH SHAME hope u get better soon. Sounds like u had an awesome weekend.. Nice baby shower, high tea, how exciting and different.. Thanks for the words of advice.. Yeh I have heard and spoken to my gynea about the anti-depressants. Just worked so hard to get off them, I really don’t want to have to go back on them.. But I have mentioned to dr that I am taking strain.. It’s a terrible sickness, not many people understand it and it sometimes makes it worse... People think being depressed is a choice, its seriously not.. oh well, one step at a time..

As for thank you gifts, at my baby shower, I just sent out a personal thank you email to each person…

Have a good day ladies, chat later… I have just 7 weeks to go to meet my LG… yay!!!

Mjabu - the car seat worked for me, for quick trips into the store, but those things are actually quite heavy, even on their own, so a longer trip to the mall didn't work for me. I would either clip the chair into the pram (bought an all in one system), or I would sit Ethan up in the pram and then nap time, or if he seem tired I would lower the back. Its all up to you and personal preference I guess, you'll find what works for you

Good luck

@Jo-c tx i will enjoy my day 2moro, i was'nt suure about the pram coz other ppl say you can use the car seat but i'll just buy it anyway.

@Sindy-d chocolates sound great i think i'll buy that as well.

o my gosh - thanks yous! Ladies what am i gonna get hubby to say thanks! Maybe a s3x voucher for after the baby is born

any ideas?

Juandre - you've been quite this morning - all ok?

Majbu - the salon - enjoy!! Why would you want to wait to buy the pram? I used the pram quite a bit with Ethan in the begginning, especailly in the shops, its quite convienant, I found that he would sleep and I could walk around the shops and get things done.

Hi ladies hope u all had a wonderful weekend, wow lucky you guys had your baby shoers already, i cant wait for mines.
Today im relaxing will go to the salon and Baby city as my cousin said i must get safety 1st kit. Im undecided about buying the pram now or after they are 3months.

Take care and have a lovely day
