Feb-May 2011 Mommies

Morning Ladies .

Is anybody struggling with headaches? It's now like every single night that I get terrible migraine - honestly I can't even turn my head and the lights are bothering me and panado is not doing anything! How many panados are safe to drink??

Meags - which triplet post is Chris referring to??? I'm curious and can't find anything.

EmsMom - shame I can just imagine how you must feel. At least you got a nice preggi pillow. I'm already cuddling my pillow he he. I'm confused with your bloods for downs. I was told that you need to try and to the measurements and the bloods on the same day or as close together as possible to get the most accurate results as they combing / compare the two??

Kimika - if you want, you can come through one weekend and I can help you with the photography. Let me know. Glad your results are all good. Congrats on 16 weeks!

Tazzy - really like your boys names. They are all very nice.

Fawaway - hope you come right with the hospitals etc. Most government employees are really so unfriendly. Shame man.

Well I don't have any baby clothes left from Megan. Gave it all away, so will probably start buying white clothes and so on very soon. I really should have kept a couple of things!

Shame girls last night Kayla was sitting by me in the bathroom and she told me about a girl in her class whose dad died a while ago and that this girl is often crying for her daddy. And then she said: “but you and daddy won't die ne". I mean what do you say? So I told her that hopefully not, but that people do die and that we never know when it is our time and that's why we should be nice to people as there is no guarantee of a tomorrow. Then we talked about Joshua's dad who died when he was a small baby and she said - shame he doesn't even know what his daddy look like. And I said yes he doesn't. And then she said: just like me, I don't know what my real, real, daddy looks like. And I asked her whether it's bothering her and she said - no, I love my daddy I've got. Now I've got photos of her biological dad, but I personally think that she's a bit young for this. What do you girls think??

And lastly, we had parents’ evening last night. She got 5 threes and the rest all fours (19 of them). 3 is satisfied requirements and 4 is exceeded requirements. I’m so proud of my little girl. I know she’s only in Grade 1 and it’s probably nothing to brag about, but I’m still proud!

Enjoy your day ladies. I’ve got lots of work to today so I’m going to try and not to chat too much.

Faw-the lady is bloody rude.what does she mean when she says you are a low risk?Glad all is well.

Meags that a funny pic right there

Kimika-good luck with your scan

Yipee Im 16wks!! Feels like a milestone

And only 1 more sleep to go for our scan !!

Tazzy, ah some great shopping done. I saw that mini steriliser and also think its great. I bought the large preggie roll when I was pregnant with my son. But somewhere in the night my hubby steals it and wakes up holding the thing! But I love my preggie roll, great for all purposes like cuddling with it in front of tv, propping you up when you have to sleep upright because of heartburn and ofcourse supporting your belly at night

You need to get some whitening tips from your mom! I hate whites that go greyish or yellow!

Meags, pls do me a favor and suggest all the mommies to me in our group that has joined FB, I dont want to put my name here lol

Mistymom and Anje, enjoy your scans today!!!!

Kimika - Woohoo you're 16 weeks today!! Sorry you bathed didnt turn out as planned. I dont know when last Ive had a relxing bath. I only have time to have quick showers.
And yay for the good test results!

Faw - I would have burst into tears if somebody treated me like that. What a cow!! Glad everything is well with your baba tho.

Emsmom - Is your preggy pillow that one that looks like a giant moon, that fits between your legs. I REALLLLLLLY want one too.
Ive also started buying odds and ends. I bought a really handing mini microwave sterilizer for dummies and small things, and then Im stocking up on cotton balls, cotton buds, vaseline ( for those first fews days of meconium!!!) Oh and I bought a few BOY babygrows.

I actually unpacked all my LGs newborn clothes on the weekend but was horrified at how yellow they were! I have given them to my mom to sort out, she loves whitening clothes!!

Okay the baby names I have in mind:
Boy - Alexander (Alex), Matthew, Travis or Murray
Girl - Rebecca, Lauren, Emma

Hope you all have a good day!!

Ok where was I Lucy, by the way, my bath was spoilt by my son waking up screaming.. he has been doing that since Friday and I dont really know why! Prob toothies..

Fawhaway, glad you went for your scan and baby is doing well! Wow what an irritating woman!! She should really mind her own business and just keep her mouth shut.. Cant believe she told you that you cant see baby again!! Thats just ridiculous!!

I didnt know you can do the sugar flowers!! What else can you do? If I post you pictures of stuff I would want, do you think you could make them? I can always buy them from you and just pay to ship them to me. I dont have time or skill to always do them so need to buy them from someone anyway.

Mistymom, I hope you are enjoying your sleep at the moments (its 10pm) and thanks a mil for making me want melted cheese on toast Enjoy your scan tomoz!! xxx

Emsmom, congrats on choosing names!! Thats a big weight of wonder lifted hey AAahh and thanks for offering your *help* with marketing me!! Your an angel.. will give more details once Ive done my lists and things.

Girls, hubby only showed me now that we got an sms from the gynae yesterday saying all the downs results are normal and good.. hmmm wonder if he might not have thought he needed to tell me?? But luckily all is good

Kimika - Enjoy your bath!

Emsmom - That is very long for a preggy fairy ..... vent away!

ooo I like it when you girls chat so much

Meags, ahh what a funny picture.. lol.. Enjoy working at Genesis, I think it will be great! Come tell all

Tazzy, glad to hear your results came back good.

Mistymom, I think if I wasnt so far along I wouldnt have said anything. So you are still in the *safe zone* My tummy is going to pop any day now and that wouldve been very awkward. My hubby is also crazy about the soccer but there is never anyone to watch with him.

KarinM, I havent read your thread yet, but hearing you need to decide about doing an amnio. Thinking of you! Chat to Carmen, she went for one a while ago.

Joli, thanks for the tips!! Looking at all the photos on the net I take it you kinda need to get the cupcake or whatever from the side so the background can be in the back, behind the object. Vrek.. die goed is moeilik vir mense soos ek hoor

Also we already have a girl's name, but noooo idea for a boy. I decided Im not even thinking of one until I know its a boy!

Ok I only got as far as Fawhaways post and still want to reply some more, but going to snooze in the bath first.. chat later!! xxx
