Feb-May 2011 Mommies

Oh it worked! Let's try again!

Faw you are next!! Fingers crossed! Misty those look divine, I will be in touch! Meags, after your horrendously painful experience natural childbirth is going to be a total walk in the park!!! Glad it's slightly better you poor thing!!!!

otherwise William is well the little angel. He was rather unsettled last night which was quite unsettling from abuot 6pm-8pm couldn't settle unhappy etc! was quite upsetting! eventually he did get to sleep (and had a mASSIVE I MEAN MASSIVE poo this mornign so think it was stomach cramps or wind) and slept beautifully up briefly at 11pm then 3.30am then 6.30am. jhave started the routine today although i fed him at 6.30am not strictly 6.00 will see how it goes! He is such a perfect little thing honestly so considerate it's amazing. My dad laughs at that he said how can a baby be considerate at 2.5 weeks but really you can tell. He hardkly cries and when he does it's cause he is really seriously uncomfy. my mom and dad came over yesterday and my mom nbabysat while i got to do some shopping and a coffee with my dad was lovely to be out but after 1 hour i was so ready to get back to my little one! Every time I heard a baby cry my heart longed for my little one!!

Hagve a lovely day ladies!

Faw thats very exciting! Please keep us informed.

Meags I'm sorry about the paina nd bleeding hon, I really hope it clears up soon, or that Mat at least arrives soon so you can take better meds.

Schatsie - maybe take some panado before bed time? May help a little. ALso if you can get some magnisium bath salts and have a 20min bath before bed time it will really help.

Joli, is itnot possible for you to have someone with you when you do to the dentist, and feed C just before you go in, and then just after? Hope you manage it and feel better.

Claire glad all is going well hope you get all your stuff soon. I know the stress feeling about not having things ready.

I really wish I could remember more personals, but my brain is totally gone!

I've got a scan today, so I'm looking forward to seeing how much bigger spec is

Hopeing on having everything for baby sorted by this week-end. My MIL had said she was going to buy us the car-seat, carry cot and sling - but hasn't actually done anything. So I found a nice car seat on gumtree and sent her the details - and she's all like "Oh I'll have to talk to Rusty (FIL) about it." So we just went ahead and got the chair, and hope that she'll give us the money back. I'm just so upset that they left my shower so late cause now there is so much I need to get that I've been wanting to split the costs over a few months, but now need to get this week-end.
Sorry about the little rant.
Thankfully Girly is going to loan us her carry cot and sling. Now our main expense is the nappies -cause not 1 person got us any for the baby shower.

Faw YAY, sounds to me like you're in labour! When last were you at the dr? Sounds like you'll have to cancel your going away plans in favour of going to the hospital instead.

Shame man Meags, I really feel for you with the H pain and bleeding!! It must be just horrible and the last thing you want to worry about when your baby's due date is so close!

Had a good laugh last night at your FB due date guessing game and your one friend guessing so late!

I had SO much pubis pain last night that DH actually woke up from my groaning and asked me what was wrong. I slept really restlessly and eventually woke him up just before 7 to ask him to give me a back massage because I couldn't bear it anymore. So today I feel like I've been hit by a bus - my whole body is sore, especially my legs, probably from trying to grip my pillow with my legs when I had to turn, since that seems to make the pain a bit less. So my walk from the car park to office was the slowest and most painful ever!

I'm seriously considering taking the last week of March off too, cause my replacement starts on the 22nd and I think a week of handover should be enough.

Only 6 more weeks till baby comes today! YAY! I really can't wait!!

Faw - are you in labour??? Wow, can't wait for another baby to arrive.

Kimika - join the club! I sat last night and made a to do list - gosh I wish I can have more hours in the day!

MistyMom - those blenders are nice, but I'm also broke - sorry.

Betty - congrats on your little one turning three - they are so cute between 3 - 4.

Anje - glad your DH enjoyed the shoot . Will try mail you a pic today.

Well today I'm gonna try take Megan for swimming lessons again (I know she will enjoy if I can only get her to actually leave the house!!). So I'm gonna let her sleep at around 12 and then when it's time to go, just gonna say OK let's go - I think she gets worked up if we tell her before the time and make a big fuss about it - like we expect something from her and then she doesn't want to go.

Then it's me and my teeth again - I've got terrible tooth ache so need to get to a dentist. Only problem is that I'm struggling to express any milk - so I can't stay out for too long - as I need to be back when Callum needs to feed!! Very frustrating and I'm actually thinking of getting some formula - but really don't want to!

Then I've got unitl 4 May to complete my photography course - there are 12 modules and I'm now busy with module 3 only - eish.

Keep well and chat soon!

Hi girls. Haven't left home yet. Just wanted to let you know that the mucus has changed and is clear/white with some blood in it so i think things are starting to happen. At least ill be two minutes away from the hospital.

Today is one of those days that I have so much to do but cant seem to get myself going... sigh...

I registered both boys on babycente and was reading the bits on each development stage... I found this bit on the birthmark Reuben has

•"Stork bites," "angel kisses," salmon patches, and vascular stains: Blotchy pink or purple flat marks that are formed by dilated capillaries near the surface of the skin. This is the most common type of birthmark, with up to 70 percent of babies having one or more. These birthmarks can become more noticeable when your baby cries or when there's a change in temperature. The ones on the back of the neck, called stork bites, usually last into adulthood. The ones on the forehead or eyelids, called angel kisses, usually go away by age 2.

hehe..

Claire, I cant believe you only have 6wks to go!!!! Feels like just the other day we were sitting in Cuppacinos and you were barely showing!! Before we know it we will be celebrating our beans walking around! Crazy hey

Betty, so your hubby and son almost share a birthday? Thats cute We tried that with my first little guy but they are 5 days apart.

MIstymom, why do you have 4 of them? Sorry.. me broke
