mommies to be DECEMBER 2010

Tanya - Wow you really have had a mixed bag of emotions. Shame man... My thoughts are with your colleague. Poor lady.

Miks - Don't worry about it. They say everyone is different. Some may feel later. I think I felt my boy move early at 17 weeks. Looks like we are going to fetch the car tomorrow, if the dealership can pull their finger out!

Maryke - Thanks for the confidence in the Toyota. I would LOVE a double cab. I drive a TATA bakkie because I need it for the dogs and horse stuff. Hubby won't get me one though! Yes I am definitely 20 weeks! At the last scan, doc said that baby is 2 days larger than he should be. Shame I hope your back feels better.

Google - I hope the physio helps!

Mutha - I've also been having weird dreams!!! Thanks for the confidence in Toyota.

Have a nice day! Baby boy is moving around like mad. Wants me to lie down a bit. It was nice, we went out for dinner last night with my mother-in-law and sister-in-law. Got back to their house and my mother-in-law was feeling her grandson kick and move. Was special! Now everyone has felt him.

Hello Ladies

Maryke- Hope you're feeling better now.

Google- good luck with physio. My pains seem to disappear and come back only once in a while.

talking about physio. When my baby sister started reading (she was 5 or 6) she saw a board that said physiotherapist. She read it slowly to herself and then decided that "physiotherapist" did not make sense to her. So she confidently asked What is physio- the - rapist?

We were all shocked that at that age she managed to get the physio part correct. So we had to explain what it was and what they do. We also had to explain what a rapist is

Miks- please dont get me started on the worrying and not feeling the baby. I am becoming paranoid now

Tanya- seems like you had a very busy day today. Loosing your baby at 19 weeks is freaking me out.
But it seems there are good news as well. Nothing beats good news I tell you.

Nothing from my side, except that I'm not sure what I'm feeling. I'm a bit gassy today but have had flutters that tell me it's my baby kicking. But I hate not being sure

Hi all,

What a day of mixed emotions it has been so far.. This morning when I got in, got the news that the other lady pregnant in our department lost her baby at 19 weeks, so sad .. Doctors don't seem to know what happened but are conducting further tests on the placenta..Apparently she started bleeding and when she got to hospital baby's heartbeat had already stopped beating...

Then not so long ago, we were advised that my hubby's sister who needs a bone marrow transplant blood test came through and my hubby's eldest brother is a match!!!

Shortly after that, I got an email from my best breaking the news that she is pregnant!!!

As I am typing I can feel my baby moving, just puts a smile on my face knowing she is fine ...

Maryke, glad you feeling better dear, take it easy now..

Good morning

Shame googlebug... hope you feel better soon! Hope the physio sorts out your hip pain once and for all.

Maryke (((big hug))) sounds like you have really been having an awful time! How is your back now? feeling better? ooooo i really want a diaper champ! And a new single bed for the baby's room. I used one with Mikayla instead of one of those table things to change her nappy on and it worked like a charm. Its nice to have a bed to lie down on with the baby...

Mutha2b.. you made me laugh! LOL.. i think God is use to all our whining.... cause boy o boy... i do a pretty good job nagging about stuff... you have seriously weird cravings.... LOL

Champers Have you decided about the Toyota yet?

So who watched Army Wives & Private Practice last night?? boy Private Practise was good.... can you imagine someone stealing your baby that way?? sheezh.... there is some sick people out there!

AFM feeling baby move more... i was really worried cause i really didnt feel anything and the dr keeps saying that i should feel baba move.... i've gained about 5kg although it looks more like 20! LOL

Hi everyone

Maryke, so sorry you had such an aweful weekend. Hope you feel a bit better.

Mutha2b, your bread and olive oil/vinegar concoction actually sounds appealing (but don't listen to me, the crazy lady who has been eating jungle oats with salt and pepper lately). To answer your question, the weightloss was because of mporning sickness (which reared its ugly head again this morning). At least I've stopped losing weight now (though I haven't been gaining either).

Champers, if the MS gets bad, try stopping your vitamins for a day and see if it helps?

I've booked some physio this morning since two months later I still have that pain in my hip joint, don't know if it will help but I will give it a try.

Morning ladies

Glad to see everyone is happy and chatting up a storm

Champers we are big Toyota fans I drive the double cab and my hubby the single but we want to trade his single for a double and my double for another fortuner still a bit nervy about the fortuner seeing that I crashed mine I had three times please take note all three times not my fault so mycare wasw more at the panelbeaters then on the road all two accidents whilst pregnant and one when lo was 3 months old

so I would definitly go for the avensis nice car

Champers are you sure you are 20w pregnant it's so small cute man

Tanya nice bump girl but also just looks like you swallowed a mini soccer ball he he

Miksmom I have to agree with hubby R550 can nearly buy you a camp cot or a daiper champ really want one of those they work like a charm

AFM had a crappy weekend was on hospital since saturday but release yesterday babas doing fine In the last accident I had I injured my back had a rhisotomy but now it's acting up again could barely walk on saturday it's still aching but a lot better then saturday only problem now I have this migraine and I am very very naar but can't vomit

Enough complaining from me

We have decided not to find out the sexes of the babies but everyone has tried to confince hubby so he asked me on sunday are we gonna check on thursday so I said to him what are you going to do with that piece of info what is it going to change in your life right now so he looked at me in a funny why and said I suppose nothing so I said just imagine when the doc takes out the first one how exciting that will be and then the second one it will be such a supprise

Ok sorry for the long post have a fab week

Well, it's so nice that the thread is not quiet like last week.

Champers, I think my bump is as small as yours. But i'm having nightmares that baba isn't growing but gyn says it's not the case. I guess i just want to look pregnant already!!!!!!!

Oh, I had a Toyota (RunX) before I bought the audi (A3). I must say, i would go to toyota anytime. I just had pleasure and it's economical on fuel.

Tanya, you are really big on the other hand. Wow!!! U r so lucky!!!!!

GML... I have stopped with the lemons. But now i have a new thing. I mix olive oil, wine vinegar and salt and eat it with bread. I just can't help myself....i don't know how. Still praying about it, hope i don't irritate God

Googlebug, how come you lost weight? That only happened to me in 1st trimester (MS).

FancyFace...thanks!!! I am also going to start 'looking' at my stretchmarks in the same way.
