mommies to be DECEMBER 2010

Hi ladies

I see you've been chatting up a storm.

Had my doctors appointment this morning and doc told me that baby may come next week! He wants to see me again in 2weeks time but says baby could arrive before then. He said if he does then it's straight to labour and delivery for me. All is still good for natural. Gooey blob like discharge is a very good sign that cervix is opening.

Was not at work today. Hubby has pink eye and cannot see at all. Had to drive us around to gynae, gp, specialist then we went out to get more stuff for baby. I'm happy to announce my bag contents have been bought. Got my baby sister to wash them for me. Just need to pack them.

I've decided to stop working tomorrow or wednesday. I'll see if I can finish everything by tomorrow.

Will do personals tomorrow. Sorry ladiesam I'm just exhausted!

The countdown has started for most of you ladies.

Saw that google's baby turned. Well done mommy.

@Googlebug the weekends are far too short. I’m not quite done with having babies as yet too Shukr baby has turned. I was given the same piece of advise so inshaAllah they will arrive sooner rather than later 2 days until Eid, Yay !!! Eina, Shame that sounds like ouch and more ouch, glad you are feeling better though. Lucky baby and you

@FF if advanced warning is given I will fly up to meet you guys, think it will have to be post-popping for all the moomies though.

I hear you Miksmommy, time is not passing as slow as it has it these last two weeks. Im not sleeping but not having any exhaustion. It’s the unrelenting backache and sore feet that are weighing me down, tick tock sigh :O

That’s the way Champers we gotta milk them and then get some more, our hubbys are good for it. Speaking of massages, I wouldn’t mind one now. Where is that husband of mine, Grr! And blackberry’s are the best. I just got one and have learnt my way around it – so un-Nokia. 8 sleeps hee yeah!! Where is here? Where are you Champers? CT or JHB?

That is a lot of kids to take care off FF. and aren’t you supposed to be on bed rest :O well like you said your children mean far more than a partner does. and as long as they loved that way, they will be fine. I like big families too – so 7 would have not sounded alien to me, I just don’t like the nasty aspects of pregnancy so much. Look at Michelle Drugger, she has 19 kids already (that’s too many pregnancies and labours for me – I salute her body’s strength).

Take care Moomies

Okay my last reply disappeared into cyberspace.

Fancyface, I see you had quite an essay for us today. Sounds like a weekend from hell.

To answer your question, no, I'm taking leave on Wednesday for a religious holiday. Not really worried what I wear to the year end thing, it should be quite informal.

Hey all,

Wow, what a weekend, never want this weekend over LOl...

On friday I just wanted to spent some time with my kids, so I got some dvd's, popcorn, juice and other treats....we parked of in the room watching 4 dvd's on the laptop....just the 4 of us... It was nice, raining outside and my bed full of small bodies smilling and just being close....

Saterday was horrible....First my girlfriend with 2 boys phones and ask's if I wouldn't mind watching the boys for her, as she has totally forgotten about her hubbies year end function...so I thought sure not a biggie....as the boys arrived, not even 5min later here comes three other friends, I'm telling you I had a house full of kids TEENS....and the small once just didn't wanna get to rest coz ruby and all the older kids are running up and down and playing....aaagrrrr....

Sunday my kids was so tired I didn't see them nor hear them....they would wake up for juice or something to eat and back to bed....and last night when I wanted to get into bed......
THEY ALL AWAKE!!!!!

I got like an hours sleep....lol but then again maybe one day I'll need someone to look after my kids....(but for now I have mom....I have the most amazing mom in the world of mom's)

Suhaila @ I always wanted 7 kids, but then soon after my first divorce and having my first baby out of that wedlock...I decided not to have more *ever* but then met mr Wrong nr.2 and had my two todds with him (soon to find out he was seeing another woman) and then I was happy with just my three little angels... But like a donkey or britney spears OOPS I DID IT AGAIN....lol but this is the final one...no more....hehehehe

You can make money hiring hubby to some of us lol...not all men like to give massages (just joking)....I paid R340 2weeks ago for a back massage just needed some relaxation...

Google @ WOW! an baby shower at work that must of made this monday an rainbow....all but blue....that's gr8t of all the ppl at work. Are you going shopping for an outfit on wednesday for the year end function?

Miks @ I'm the same at the moment I so so badly want to get everything sorted out now b4 going shopping for baby end of the month but I get half way and it all just seems to much, and I give up... I just wish time would fly so that I can have my body back...I'm gonna miss all the movement and baby inside but it's such a blessing to know I don't have to carry this baby like an poor elephant for 18months hehehe imagen that....

Champers @ Oh dear 8 sleeps does sound shorter than 9 days hehehe....I found with my previous pregnancies that atleast 2weeks b4 I give birth I get this energy....and just can stop cleaning and moving stuff around etc. guess you reached the end...wish I was there lol....Must be really relaxing to pop down to the beach and just sit there and relax with a nice breeze.... Well I will be on fb and moomies just to make sure I don't miss the arrival of Ty....but most of all, I would like to know how you feel the second you look at that baby holding him in your arms....that my friend is going to change YOU for ever coz from that second you are no longer MRS.....or daughter of.....or sister of....you are the MOMMY of Ty....

I must say with my first born I didnt want to hold her or anything had a bad dose of drugs etc...but it was hard getting myself comfy with her.... Cody is the baby that made me cry, as they put him in my arms I started crying....Hailey made me smile coz the first thing I saw on her little ear was a mole....she was so tiny and sweet....

Anyway they change you completely....

chat soon girls

FF

Me again....

Just had a surprise baby shower at work (walked in to what I thought was going to be a high powered meeting and found all my colleagues in a room beautifully decorated with pink dummies and balloons everywhere).

This baby is so unbelievably spoilt. Got a ton of georgous stuff. Even though our department of lawyers is quite small with only six other people you would think that twenty people bought stuff- no clue how I'm going to get it all down to my car this afternoon!

Miksmummy, don't worry, just a little bit longer.

Champers, I am so jealous of all the time you get to spend on the beach, wish we had a beach here.

I also feel fairly energetic these days, not really tired even though I haven't been getting much sleep. And this week should go quite fast since I'm on leave on Wednesday and then we have a year end function on Friday afternoon. Then just one more week at work after that....

Morning my lovely Moomie Ladies!

Awesome news that baby has turned Google! I am jealous! Although now I've made peace with a c section.

GML, hope you had fun at your baby shower and got lots of cool pressies!

Miks, sorry to hear that you are feeling fed up. That was definitely me the past 2 weeks. This week I am feeling HEAVY but energised.

Suhaila, I LOVE massages. I have been milking them.

FF, I will definitely let you guys know everything. I'm taking my Blackberry in with me so I will hopefully be able to post pics and pop into Moomie.

Well, the countdown has started... 8 sleeps left.... Whaaa whaaa weeee whaaa. EVERYONE hold thumbs that Ty doesn't come sooner. Hubby is in CT so I'm home alone and Doc is away this weekend.

Just got back from taking the dogs to the beach. I just sat on the rocks while they ran around and swam.

Have a nice day! SO HOT HERE!

morning

GML @ How was your baby shower? Hope you got spoilt rotten!

Google @ so happy that baby turned!!

Suhaila @ wow... back massages... awesome!

FF @ a meet up would be great

AFM I really don't want to moun and complain but I honestly can't take the exhaustion anymore! I have so much to do but I start something and half way through I'm so exhausted that I just can't finish it! And all I seem to do is sleep... grrrr.... so sorry that I seem like an ungrateful cow but I would really like these 2 weeks to be over very quickly!
