Feb-May 2011 Mommies

Emsmom, enjoy the shoot!! Hope your MIL wears something nice

Cath, how did the scan go?????

Girls, Im just sooooo tired.. can barely keep my eyes open! Yesterday when we were with our friends I actually had to go take a nap!! I just couldnt stay awake anymore.. and I never take afternoon naps! Got home last night and had the worst tummy cramps ever so went straight to bed at 9. And Im still tired!! Dont know how Im going to get through the day.. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Hey Ladies, how are your week-ends going.

fawhaway, I am sorry, but also glad that you have come to this decision. It is always sad when a relationship comes to a final end, but we can all see that this is the best decision for you and your children. It is clear he does not deserve you. The road ahead may be hard, but be strong and remember that we are hear for you.

Kimika, yes my folks are also making plans to go Aus with us. There is no way they would be away from their grandchildren:)
Enjoy all your pudding making and eating

Jess, unless there is a medical reason for a c-section this time, you must insisit you get a vbac.

Went to a farm market this morning with my folks, was nice, but I found there were far too many people, I'm finding myself really not enjoying crowds. The food there was lovely though! Thinking of going back just for the food.

We're doing a family photo shoot tomorrow. Wanted to get some nice photos for Joli to use for the tins. Only thing is that my inlaws have the worst dress sense every and my MIL is incabable of dressing smart. So she sms'd me today if she should wear red tomorrow (??????) so I said no, just dress smart please - and she replies "me smart? I'll try" I swear tomorrow if rocks up dressed like trash I'm going to send her to my mothers room to change.

Jessica, well actually its good news that there was no reason for your last c-sec, because then its just easier to go for trail of labor

Cath, yip we are exactly the same!! Its actually great because we now kinda have a reference on growth etc.. although later on they might grow totally different!

Lucy I just love Amia!!! Beautifull name.. Just like Ava.. like that too.. but wont be thinking girl names for a loooong time if ever

Sorry I seem to have porriage brain.. are you going to name your son Sebastian?? If so then I can just add it to our list!

Tazzy, yes they are maternity!! They have 2 different kinds of denim shorts.. really nicely *washed* and a great fit, not too short and not too long. And the elasticy band part is soft and stretchable so it will fit from now upto the end. They also have brown and camel shorts but the fit does NOT work on my body Also I bought a maxi dress.. but most of their things are soooo oversized that it looks awefull!! You just need to dig around.

Shame Faw, hope you are doing ok! Dont overdo the packing with your mom!!! Your baby is more important.. and if you really get worried about the bleeding then rather go to emergency!! xxx

So tomorrow morning I need to get up bright and early (so Ill be thinking of Cath at 7) and I need to do washing and also bake a pudding. We are visiting friends that we havent seen in such a long time.. theyve never even seen my son so cant wait to just have a glass of wine with them.. or err.. ops glass of grapetiser? And then on Sunday MIL is visiting so need to bake another pud for them.. yipee & yum !!!

Areej i have been in contact with the jamiat in kzn and they have given me instructions to follow. I don't have a local imam here and my parents aren't muslim so it gets a bit complicated. I am going to go to the mjc next week with my mom to state my case and get someone to remind my husband of his duty. Once that is done i have to wait and see what happens etc. Its a long process. I can however get a legal divorce in the family court as we got married that way too. If all else fails and i don't get my divorce through the mjc i will try get my marriage annulled. The money story of today is not the only issue though, it was just the tip that broke the camels back. I will let you know when im sorted with the child support and then i can speak to your ppl.
Tazzy i don't have the money to go get it checked out and the hospital i am going to i haven't been to see if they can help. At the moment im busy helping my mom sort the house out as its going on sale on monday and my dad refuses to help. I should really go but at the same time im scared and would rather wait til friday. I don't know if i should go to er or the maternity unit itself. Have a lovely evening everyone. Hugs.

Joli - I have also been having those tense feelings in my uterus. Not sure if it is BH though, maybe just mild BH. Cos I can still carry on with what Im doing.

Meags - I really wouldnt worry about your uterus being higher. Im sure if something was wrong that Dr would have picked it by now.
Have fun at the BUlls Party! Did you find something to wear?

Lucy - I also had those twithy feelings at around 13 weeks, but now they are squirming feelings. LOL sorry Thats the only way I can describe them. How are things with you and DH?

Faw- Sorry to hear you are bleeding again.. Cant you go and see a midwife or GP just to check that everything is ok?

Cath - Enjoy your scan tomorrow - shew thats an early appointement!

Kimika - Are they Maternity shorts? Im really battling to find any decent maternity clothes.

Jessica - I love the name Alexander. Thats my no1 on my boys list.

Meags - I am glad you like the name!! The twitching in tummy is slower but is that kind of sensation. On the scan Seb was going ballistic with his arms and legs, when he eventually woke up!

Lucy - I get those twitches too. But the feeling I felt on Wednesday wasnt twitching. It was popping and wasnt as fast as twitching. It was like tiny kicks like a second or 2 apart.

Oohh I actually like Amia. I should mention that to DH and see if he likes it. I like unique names

Faw - I am glad you are thinking of divorce (that really sounds so wrong...) but your DH does not deserve such a wonderful lady like you. He doesnt support you in any kind of way (as you said) and you have been doing just fine without him while you've been in Cape Town. Thinking of you.

Maryke cant see me until Monday 11th...so not going to bother as my scan is that Thursday. But I have booked a scan on 25 October with her so my mom can see the baby as she'll be here. and we going to Cape Town from that Tuesday-Saturday!
