PAMPERS JULY 2010

O ja, and on the Braxton Hicks (hubby calls them Baby Hicups) I completely agree. I only realised on Friday that the tight tummy at times is not baba showing me her ass, its Braxton Hicks contractions. On sunday i was having one every 20 minutes which is apparently quite normal, but at one stage I was also thinking, much more of this and I would need to be checked out! This afternoon I've had 4 since 3 O Clock

Newbie - glad all is well with baby. Thanks for the juice recipe. I remember doing it with Ethan, can say if it helped or not, do remember that Schlehen berry stuff being very expensive though. Enjoy your class tonight. Let us know what you find out about the stem cell. Anthony and I are thinking about it, but I said that we didn't do it for Ethan, we can't do it for this one, but apparently it helps for sibilings as well, so not sure.

Sorry to hear about your friend - it really is heart breaking - speaking from experiance.

Ladies not sure if any of you can remember, but there was a thread on the Pampers forum about a really, really cheap breast pump - like R399 or R499 - can anyone remember the name?

WOW Newbie - those are so awesome. Thanks for sharing. Your "mini-me" looks perfect!! Good job mom!!

MY LITTLE ANGELS PICS

Big Yawn


Holding my feet and trying so hard to put them in my mouth too.

Hey all you gorgeous gals.. WEll today wasnt as hectic as most day, but gee wizz am I suffering with hectic heart burn, almost like my food just sits in my throat, not up for eating. Bbay must be pushing on tummy.. eek and even worse BH, wow its really been painful. Today I thought if I have another "false" contraction in the next 30 min, I am going in.. haha...

Baby is head down as she has been since our 21 week scan, woke up this morning with a big bulge on one side of my tummy, haha it was her foot, but i was still half asleep trying to figure out what it was.. Also baby is weighing 1.8kgs at the start of my 31 week.. and all is good and healthy. As for the pics of the scans, photobucket is offline due to maintenace, waiting till they back on line and I will post some pics..

Sindy_D - as for gifts, I just sent out thank you cards/emails. But if you want to get something, get them a pedicure, not too pricey and a bit of pampering. well i love them anyhow.

Patty - sorry to hear bout ur experience yesterday.. Also my SIL is just a selfish cow, sorry but I dont like her anyway, and just decided now I dont actually need people like that in my life..I am glad ur BF is there for u, its really special.
Also as for LB and LG kicking, I know what you mean, although its sometimes a little painful, I also love feeling her, she has been very busy today.

vickyvdw - congrats on the 30 weeks, I am 31 weeks today..

Jo_C - sorry babe, didnt mean to scare you... My friend is a F*&K up, sorry, but no havent seen her or heard from her since about 3 months into my pregnancy. She can piss off for all I care.. She is hard work.. Sorry just venting here.. But for 7 years all she has been is hard work, its prob best I have seen her true colours. Also ur hubby sounds precious, so cute he is trying..

mjabu - ur baby shower colour idea sounds great, hope u have fun.

csejake - apparently the manual turning isnt too bad, a friend of mine did it, although she landed up having a c-section in the end.. Suppose baby does what it wants to...

Juandre_N - shame I have nights like that too, hope u feel better soon. At least hubby showed he cared.

vickyvdw - let us know what happens with ur app. I am sure all is 100%, but just take it easy.. If u stressed, baby is stressed. Wouldnt worry about discharge, sounds normal..

Or u Can do this one
50ml Schlehen Elixir
1L liqui fruit
1 Calcivita
1 sachet rehidrate
1L Water
Drink 2L over 24 hour period.

Its brilliant stuff and u can start drinking it now.

Also ladies, I have my 2nd last antental class tonight, speaking about steam cell storage and speaking to the pead, also about vaccinations.

Any comments???

Jo- the jungle juice is VERY good. It really does help. The basic ingredients are:
60ml Berry Elixer
2L Apple huice
1L Cold Water
Optional: rescue drops or Calmag

You make these 3L up and drink a glass before every feed. My Midwife said we should start the day we come home as that is when our milk will come in. I know some ladies take it to hospital with them.

Vicky - good idea going to see Dr this afternoon. If you are feeling out of sorts, best get Drs opinion, especially for peace of mind. Good luck - let us know how it goes

Newbie - Or anyone for that matter. Please explain Jungle Juice. I saw it Newbies list the other day and also metioned somewhere else. Is that the juice made up to help produce milk? Does it really work? what all needs to go in it?
