Feb-May 2011 Mommies

Arno and his nanny Precious

Pic from our CT meet on Sunday (thank you reluctant mom!)

lucy glad u survived your trip!!!

schatsie sorry about the boobie feeding ending - but you have done such a fantastic job so nothing to feel guilty about

was so nice meeting all the CT moomies - wish we could do it again before I leave

DH went out on Saturday night and got so wasted he lost the credit card and the R25 000 watch I bought him for our wedding...
I actually feel nothing about it.
He says he has no memory of the night. And doesnt want to ask his friends what happened because he says if he did something bad he would never forgive himself. He is very depressed and was crying a lot on the phone.
I am thinking of staying here an extra week. But I need to try find more formula for Matt because I dont have enough for an extra week. Dh says he will pay for all the flight changes as long as I'm happy. I have a bad feeling about his night out...but a part of me doesnt even care. I dont think thats good...

Hey Moomies. I am back, Tessa survived, I survived and my boobs survived! Lol. It was so hard and I don't think I could have made another minute. Tessa aka my little trooper didn't miss a beat when I gave her boob again. I swear she has grown in 3 days!

Schatsie , I have never heard of the glycerine thing but I do rub T's top and bottom gums with a swab wrapped around my finger every night before her bath.

Cath and Rakker- gorgeous! And thanks for sharing!

Kimika - whoop whoop on sleep. Long may it last.

Joli and Missesmom- that is so weird about the milk. I am dreading the return of af. You have my sympathies.

Libra T goes down at about 9.30pm every night.

Goodness ladies I can't remember more. Meags I had to toss more than 2 litres of ebm while in mauritius. It nearly killed me pouring it down the drain and I kept thinking of you and your lady that needs it so desperately.

Good morning girls!

Meags it was lovely meeting you yesterday and Mistymom, Missesmom, BettyF and Faw it was lovely to see you again! Can't wait to see the pics! I was thinking yesterday morning that for 2 yrs I thought I would never have kids and here I am going to this Moomie thing with my baby and all of you. Wow!

I take my hat off to the ladies with more than one child and the ones with children running around! Our LOs are far easier to handle at the moment because they can't walk/run yet.

Had a little nap when I got home and then DH and I had a little braai by ourselves.

Arno didn't want to drink at all yesterday or this morning, so I phoned the dr and asked for a prescription for the tablet to stop my milk. I feel quite guilty, but there is no point in suffering with full breasts when my son only has eyes for his bottles now.

Phew, it has really been hot in CT the last few days! I'm way overdressed and suffering as a result today!

Hope you all have a lovely week!

So happy for you Kimika - so at least you are full energy to bake my cake he he.

Well I've got no freaking idea what's up with Callum. He was OK yesterday. Just the normal whines. Went to bed normal time - I went to bed just after 12 and then at 1am he woke up screaming his head off!! I eventually stripped him naked - for in case his privates are stuck or something you know!! But no hell he wouldn't stop and he didn't want boob either - I sat up with him and he fell asleep in my arms for like 30 minutes just to repeat the whole story again and this carried on until after 7 this morning when he finally decided to drink! Now what's up with that huh? Every time I tried to feed him as soon as he feel or see boob - he went berserk??? This morning I eventually squirted milk into in mouth and he then drank a bit.

And then Megan was also awake most of the night. His skin alergy has gone from bad to worst - so I am taking her back to the dermatologist AGAIN! Today he better help me - I am sick of cortisones cream which does not work - her whole body is covered in rash and it's waking her.

Other than that - I am busy - as usual - so can't complain really. Just tired and can't wait for December to go on holiday. Going to leave my computer (yes I took it with last year to work!) and sommer my cell phone at home this time!

Sweet week ladies. Hugs to the babes.

Morning girls!!

Well Im smiling today

R slept a 7 1/2 hour stretch last night!! Whoooohooo! I have no idea where that came from.. Well I did give him a small little helping of rice cereal last night.. not sure if that helped? Anyway, even if he doesnt do that again Im happy for a bit of rest.. I got to watch a movie plus get some sleep!!

How is everyone doing??? Seems like everyone is busy with their babas hey?

Have a fab week

(yes, rest does help )
