Feb-May 2011 Mommies

Joli - Callum is so gorgeous, that beautiful face in the white outfit is too precious. Enjoy being home as a family now, I am sure your 2 little helpers are very excited too. Please don't stop sharing the pics ........ love them!!!

Vix and Schatsie - I can't see grrrrrrrr!!!

Newyum - I may be in big trouble! I hated dolls and found many purposes for my dolls other than dollies!! My poor mother sewed extensive wardrobes for them to try and entice me to play with them. Oh dear ........ I always knew my learning curve once baba arrived would be steep! Hee hee. Always up for a challenge though. Plus all my moomie friends will help.

Kimika - The class was mainly on c/s but not anything I wasn't aware of already. The one thing I did learn is Dad must go with Baba to the side when they do the apgar. Also we can sleep on our backs ...... just put a little cushion under one hip and then you won't make baba hypotensive!

Claire - Have you won an oscar being the alpha female yet?

Jessica - I agree with Claire.... you look pregnant! It isn't your first child so it makes sense that you carry a bit bigger. Anyway you have a big healthy baba in there and that is what counts, not too long to go now!

Karin and Joli - Wouldn't it be great to slim down quickly, but I am not going to set myself up for disappointment. For me I am still BIG and feel like my muscles and skin are about to split. I think it is the rigidness and not being able to move that get me, never mind the back ache. Oh the joys!

Misty - Hope the nausea is temporary. I had a bad evening yesterday but absolutely fine today. Much more erratic than my MS was (that was constant 24/7) very weird!! Take care and drink water and suck lollies. My plan hee!! Oh and I just noticed your kitties just turned 1, Happy birthday Jack and Daniel


Emsmom - Enjoy your spa weekend, I must say that DH does treat you very well. I am also taking a break this weekend with Dh, we are off to the south coast (illovo beach) and the best thing is that they have a pool ......... so you know where I am going to be the whole weekend! Hee hee

To all my friends that this brain has neglected ...... Hello and hope you are happy!!

Kaylae, I think you're right, sometimes people are just incompatible. The big joke was that my ex told me once that our inability to conceive was all my fault since his sperm tests were perfect. Guess I showed him! And yes, my new hubby and I and our baby were just totally meant to be and I'm SO much happier now than I was with my ex. Everything really worked out for the best for me!

Jessica_Bryce, I guess this is not your first pregnancy? I think the only reason why I'm relatively small is because it is my first. Otherwise I would probably have been very big and uncomfortable by now. Then again, I'm 3 weeks behind you, so who knows what I may look like in 3 weeks from now.

But hang in there, maybe baby comes real soon now!

My Callum today . Sorry ladies, you are posting preggy pics, I'm posting baby pics he he. Hope you don't get tired of all my pics.

Kimika I'm also curious to see what your little one is gonna look like. They say dark hair is dominant.

Good Karin. My girls were born full term and Callum still came early. I wouldn't risk it either.

Schatsie-I have heard that sometimes women have difficulties to concieve because they are incompatible with the partner.Some say if it's the same blood group you won't conceive.My DH was dating a girl for 10 years and the girl was not using any contraceptives yet never fell preggies but I fell preggies for him and he was convinced that he was barren.So yaah you and now DH were meant to have this baby,embrace it.

Jessica-OMW I understand when you say you feel uncomfortable but take heart you are almost there.

Karin I do not have a blackberry but you can invite me to FB(Kulani Masebenza-Mathibela)

Newyum mum-indeed we were made to be mothers,no one taught us

Schatsie: Gee wiz. You've had a rough time. Me and my hubby also almost split up because of all the stress that it brought. He felt inadequit and just felt incomplete and was misrable all the time.
Then we found out I was pregnant. Was the greatest news ever. Our relationship might have taken its toll, but we came out stronger at the end.
Every time I wanna complain about the back pain and the heartburn and think of the times that I could not fall pregnant!!!

Jessica_Bryce: I am really feeling sorry for you. I already feel very uncomfortable and I am only on 30 Weeks.
I work in a corporate environment and had to squeezy my puffy feet into stalleto's the other day for a customer meeting. I almost died.
When i got to my car and had my fitflops on in a flash. Nothing fits and nothing will fit. I asked some of my larger friends to borrow me some of their tops. It will be waste for me to buy new clothes as you can never judge what your end size will be. Like Forest Gump i wanna say: Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you gonna get

Well, I've thought it over and I think the safest route to take is to just stay at home safe and sound... Not worth the risk in the end I guess. My son wanted to come at 35 weeks and they stopped labour luckily ..so mmmm, maybe I'm tempting fate by wanting to take a trip. rather not!
Thanks for all your input ladies!

Do any of you girls have a Blackberry? I thought that I might add on of you on my list and then I can update you girls when I go in for my c-section with news, pics etc.?
