[embryonichappyperson]

New thread woohoo! :smiliedance:

mummy7-Haha! Cool that he has red converse shoes. I love converse shoes I got 3 pairs atm. I love the converse outlet at Harbour Town in Perth hehe.

laylasmumma23- Yeah I might miss the movements only because I will have the baby in my arms screaming for food and a changed nappy lol.

Yeah swimming lessons are a good excuse because the pool is half n hour drive away in the next town hehe. I stick around for another 40min and then half n hour to go home.

I don't mind people staying, because we only have one room and DP cuz, wife and kid are having it for obvious reasons and the rest are camping in the backyard haha. Next year we will have no rooms left and we will go to Perth next year anyways for Christmas.

We don't have visitors that often so I'm sure I can be a bit put out for 4 days :D

Yeah I will buy some sparkling unalcoholic champagne lol. I misssssss alcohol. I will make up for it next year. :laughing:

axelsmummy-Yeah I know it's worth it lol, I will definitely make up for it next year.

Nah I don't have a clue what I'm having, I'm only 15 weeks and 4 days. I'm getting my 19 week scan on the 22nd of Jan. I can't wait to find out. Kirsten thinks I'm having a girl this time haha.

I got a few names picked out. Girls names are so much easier. Oh and I do have FB.

AFM swimming lessons today and washing some clothes can't wait haha.

Ixnay- I wanted to teach my dd to swim in my parents pool but "summer" has been so weird there has been no hot days :( so i might have to take her to lessons.

I lived in the desert for nearly 3 years and they didn't have swimming lessons for little kids. So Rohan couldn't learn how to swim till he turned 5 and go to VacSwim here in Hopetoun.

He went pretty well today for his first day, the weather was hot and the pool was cold and he wanted his wetsuit on lol. But he did well even though he was shivering.


Ixnay-I know a week to go tomorrow but he probably be stubborn and come late. Lol.


Ha! Yeah first babies usually go over their due date for some reason. Rohan did, the little bugger! I was so low and so big it wasn't a joke.

FM-I had a look at your pic, your last name is alot like mine. Do you have Polish in your family? My last is Morawski. My dad's dad was Polish, my dad is dutch.

Mummy7-I forgot to mention I hope Xavier has a good bday tomorrow..

laylasmumma23-well I keep hoping it will come true :laughing: I like to have his bday Jan 1st as he can go in style especially for his 18th & 21st. Just have to see. Lol. Gotta love ebay..

Axelsmummy-I'm on facebook just click on the link below my ticker and the top person is moi. Lol.

Well since I'm the oldest bird of the 20 something mummies, (I think). I will you my advice from many long and tiring years of experience lol.

Ok how about rubbing a tiny bit of vix vapour rub on his chest and back? Not to much otherwise it will overpower him. You can buy more baby orientated stuff thats like vix from chemists. Just ask the pharmacist. Humidifiers always come in handy!

Rohan started teething at 4mths, but his first tooth appeared at 5mths and by the time he was 12mths he had his full set, accept for the molars which come after they turn 1.

Signs of teething are:constant drooling, he might like to bite and chew things, you can actually see the white of the tooth through the gum because it's so close to the surface. Nappy rash, red cheeks and sometimes ear ache and oh runny poohs.

Things that can help are: wet cool flannel, chewing rattles or that thing you can buy called a Gummy that he can bite down on till his teeth come in. Give him a rusk to chew on if he likes them, Rohan didn't. When he has a tooth and more follow rub on some teething gel for babies.

If his teething really bad, baby Panadol will take the edge off. You can get some more natural remedies from the chemist for teething too. Drops and stuff....

[axelandlexismum]

Hey thanks for your heip...:thumbsup:
He seems to have all those signs of teething-red cheecks, drooling, chewing on everything (including my face),pulls at his ears doesnt have the runny poo...
I give him baby panadol but sometimes it doesnt seem to work, he loves the rusks, and i use the gel on his gums! I have seen the white tips but then the following day i cant seee anything...:(
Its really starting to get to me, i know its apart of the whole parenting thing and they all go through it, but i feel so bad for him, im trying everything and nothing seems to work...
Why wont they just come out and gives us all a break from the screaming in pain!!! :(
It makes it hard for me coz im alone with him SO much coz df works long hours....

Hi axelsmummy!
My son Chace is 6 months old and he has his two front teeth come through a few weeks ago. I recommend getting some Bonjela if you do not have any and when Axel if particularly upset check his gums. If they are swelled up put Bonjela on them.
That's what i did with Chace when his gums were swelled up. It took about 5- 10 minutes for him to stop crying. But then he stops and i found that Bonjella combined with baby Panadol really helped him with the teething pain.


Hope that helps you out!:yes:

[axelandlexismum]

Hey Aprilfromtheblock...:wave:
Thanks for that i use Bonjela, a whole tube of it so far since he started teething and with baby panadol it doesnt seem to work sometimes...:(
Other days it works wonders and some days it does nothing!!!
Thanks for the advice:thumbsup:

Teething- my dd started teething @ 9 months...and stopped at 10 lol she only has her two bottom teeth and she's 13 months..she has just started to cut her two top teeth....but the teething stuff just doesn't end!!!

[matthews mum]

hi there

im 21 married and have a 21month old matthew.I live in south coogee. Does anyone know how i can get my son to eat. he is so picky.:xmastree:hope everyone had a nice xmas and have a great new year!

[embryonichappyperson]

Hi all! :wave:

Wow I have had a busy day. Rohan had swimming lessons and Jayson stayed with him while I took the dog to the vet, bloody animal cost us $167! She has a skin infection, grrr! :hair:

We did a bit of shopping and drove home, I had to wash the dog with medicated shampoo and then we just chilled till everyone arrived. Oh and I got my eyebrows waxed lol.

Welcome mathews mum :wave: My name is Morgan and I'm 28. I live in WA with my DS Rohan 6 and my partner of 7 years Jayson who is 34.

As for your son all you can do is offer different foods and just persevere with it till you find something he likes. Give him food he likes and hide vegies in it. That's what I had to do with my son Rohan, he was SO picky for years. He loved spag bog and still does, I just used to make that 2 times a week and hide vegies. I made meals he liked even just a little and hid vegies. Sometimes all he had for dinner was a simple vegemite sandwich. As long as he ate it was all good, he ate lots of fruit so I wasn't worried about his health. :)

One day a light bulb will switch on and he will just eat anything, it took Rohan about 4 years unfortunately lol.

[mummy7]

Happy birthday Xavier James!!!!!!!!!!! :party:

OMG..... well it is official my lil man is now 1!!!! Cant believe 12 months have gone already.. it has flown!! Feels like yesterday I was pregnant! He had the best day!! Was totally spoilt and loved having his first taste of party food hehe.. hmmmmm.... I think his nappy will be interesting tomorrow lol. The party went well. Every1 seemed to have fun and enjoy themselves and the weather was kind so it was lovely to spend the arv in the sunshine.
Cant believe its nye tomorrow night!!! Scary.... time sure flies faster when u have kidlets. I moved bub into his own room last night and he slept till 8am!!!!! He is usually up @ 530am!!!! Could not believe it!!! He must love it.. hopefully he will continue to sleep like a champ :yes:. He has gone down ok tonight so ...:fingerscrossed:. Poor lil man has his mollers cutting atm as well but is handling it like a champ. He has had some nurofen and it seems to have done the trick.
Matthews mum - :wave: and welcome to the best thread :laughing:. Look forward to chatting.
axelsmummy - Glad bub is feeling better. Nurofen is gd.. so much better than panadol.. panadol does nothing 4 Xavier. Hylands teething relief is also gd I find.
1sttimemum - How did ur check up go hun?

[cecandchels]

well hello girls.

i def feel out of the loop as i havent been on here to often. its been so so busy. im with u girls who say they are glad christmas is over. i just cant wait for things to get back to normal. i mean going to hamilton for 10 days was great i loved it! but getting back on the 23rd and straight into christmas was hectic. we stayed at my parents chrissy eve then dp's mums for the next two days. then we went up to avoca with his family. i was so over it and im so glad we are home. and chelsea's routine was stuffed so she was a mess most of the time, not to mention the teething (but those hyland teething tablets a great!)

so it was also her brithday on monday. we celebrated on sunday tho with all the fam. she was so cute! and i agree with u mummy7 i cant believe its been a year!! i bought some really cute butterful lights for her room and wall stickers, to make it look nice (before it kind of looked like a prison cell, ha ha). i put it all up today and it looks great, i only wish she could appreciate it as much as i do. she has so many toys from xmas and brithday i had to upgrade her toy box to a bigger one. its much better now toys arent strewn around the place. is strewn a word?

tomorrow we are just having a bbq and staying local as mum and dad are looking after chels, so it should be good. although i honestly wouldnt mind staying at home and doing nothing at all, but sleeping at 9pm.

1sttimemum i cant believe its only 5 days! its so exciting! chels came right on her due date (which turned out to be 5 days late according to the paed). so i hope ur little boy gets it right and doesnt make u wait.

mummy7 happybirthday xavier! as i said before, i cant believe our babies are 1 yr olds! chels is doing the same thing with cruising the furniture, but today she took one step no hands!! woot! im sure she isnt to far off walking, mum got her a walker for her bday and she is so proud of herself when she takes a few steps. i cant wait for it, but she will be a handful - she already is.

i know there are heaps more personals to do but im so far behind ill catch up later.

also i noticed ppl are obsessing with facebook? i always have facebook open - in fact im on it right now.
anyway my email adress is cecily_rita@hotmail.com if u want to add me.

:party:HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY!!!:party:

[laylasmumma23]

Hey ladies...well as promised im trying to keep up! so far so good

loux- awww wii fit..i have been told how much fun it is! i have a ps2 with the eye toy but its just not the same LOL maybe one day i'll update to the Wii!
I hate moving! i think i still at least one box of stuff that still isn't unpacked and i've been living here for a year LOL.

Ixnay-i have a few app's on facebook i just never use them LOL...i keep getting sent pets and plants and things im meant to look after or they die..like wtf..i do have a life...ok..well maybe i dont lol
Sounds like you had a busy day!..time to put your feet up and eat choccie watch a sappy chick flick..hmmm i believe the note book was sappy.

Ok hands up..who else cried in the notebook?..*puts her hand up*..

mixi_mama- so been working much? LOL sorry! lame humor when im tired!
awww a chrissy bub, double pressies LOL

1sttimemum09- ohhhhhhhh now i get it!!..question tho, how are you getting to the hospital when its time to go? Ring the ambo?
Im not against home birth..its just not my cuppa tea lol..power to the ladies that can do it...but im all about the drugs! LOL
plus my dd needed medical treatment straight after birth so im glad i was in a hospital.
Glad your check up went well ..now the waiting game..i have an awesome pic of when i got really bored in my last couple days ( i should put it on facebook! lol) i drew all over my belly and put X's where she kicked me the most!! when pregnant ppl are bored...i believe you made your belly wear a santa hat! LOL

Matthewsmum- Hey and welcome
my dd is kinda still on squishy foods but i tend to mash everything up together. Sweet corn is a winner, makes her veggies taste better...sometimes i even mixed yoghurt in with her veggies..that worked to.
Depends on what you normally feed him i guess. There is an awesome recipe book "deceptively (sp) delicious" it was written by jerry seinfields wife...Oprah recommended it...its awesome..teaches you how to hide veggies in chicken nuggets and spaghetti!!

Axelsmummy- hope the teething stuff works! i have 2 teeth down..only what..24 left..

wow now i wish i payed attention in biology! lol we have 26 teeth right? Ixnay your clever...

Mummy7- :flowerz:Happy b'day Xavier:flowerz: awwww the big One!
The nappy the next day will be great...my dd had an ice cream cake...lets just say..it wasn't pretty! lol
Glad he had a nice day and nice weather for it and was spoilt rotten!
Oh and a big boy now in his own room, :fingerscrossed: he keeps up with that good sleeping.

Cec-:flowerz:happy birthday to chelsea:flowerz: wow making my dd look old LOL..she's 13 months now!! time really does fly!
mmm i think strewn is a word...i make up words all the time..like shooken..one day it will catch on! lol
my dd is walking..she started walking a couple days after her b'day..cant stop her now, given up crawling for good! i do recommend getting a good ice pack tho! there will be many tumbles lol
If you get kirsten to add you, everyone is on there LOL i looked you up are you Cecily G....?
we had a stalker day where everyone just went facebook adding nuts!

AFM- im having a day off 2morrow WOO HOO!! my parents are taking dd so i can go shopping!! i cant wait!...They feel bad because i cant go out for new years, i was a lil upset about it because you find out who your true friends are on new years, but im cool now..gunna have a bubbly with dp and watch the fireworks on tv.
anways hope everyone has a great new years.
Kirsten..hope you dont go into labour at midnight LOL..
catch all you spunky mumma's later :wave:

[xlouxloux]

Eveningggggggggg. I just thought id try catch up on some personals before bed. I just did my training on wii fit n im quite achey so thats a good sign! Hopefully ill be able to get 30mins in each day, should be able to, Alyssa naps quite well during the day. I waited till late tonight cos it was way too hot to exercise today (38, BLERK!) im so dreading Jan last yr was pure hell (our a/c broke :no:) anyways enough whinging! lol
Today i went n did some odd jobs for my mum, bought her an eggshell overlay for her bed and a navman, i was having fun playing with it so much that i almost got one, but she said i can borrow hers :rolleyes:
Alyssa looks like she might be teething again, had red cheeks when she woke from her morning nap, kinda hoping she pops a few out in one go hehe

Mel - yay for Seth's great sleep last night! damn mozzies, maybe u should check the seals on his window? or if u can do a bug bomb one day when ur going to be out. there might be a nest somewhere. yay for catch ups tomorrow!

Kirsten - gah 2 weeks! i duno how i woulda been if id gone further in my pregnancy, kinda relieved she came early i was uncomfortable from 32 weeks (they think she just stretched n jammed herself in weird ways n that broke my waters lol) im sure u wont go for much longer!

cecandchels - added u on fb :) aww big happy birthday to chelsea!

mummy7 - HAPPY BIRTHDAY XAVIER!! yay for the big sleep in! hope it carries on for u :)

Ixnay - ewww vets suck :( my mums dog has needed alot of meds n check ups n that.

mathewsmum - welcome! im Louise 21 n live in perth. I agree with ixnay ur best bet is to hide vegies in other foods. i used to work in a daycare and we used to make little jaffel pies (puff pastry) and put like stew/vegie combos in them n the kids woofed em down!

mixi_mama - ooo an xmas baby! hope u manage to get a rest soon!

axelsmummy - have u got a vapourizer? i swear by ours! i just use it at night when Alyssa has a cold and is blocked up. they arent too expensive i think u can pick them up for around $70 at the chemist. Tav n Vicks are the brands ive seen.

Laylasmumma - yay for going shopping baby freeeee! mel and i do that sometimes on thursday late night it feels so nice to wander without a trolly or pram hehe. hope u have fun!

Hope everyone has a great nye! during the day steven doesnt start work till 12 (finishes at 6) and mum finishes work at 12 hehe. Mel is coming over to hang during the day so the kids get a playdate then at night mums coming over for dinner n a movie yayee looking forward to it

[embryonichappyperson]

Ok hands up..who else cried in the notebook?..*puts her hand up*..

*doesn't put hand up* I turned it off it was so boring lolz. I'm not a sappy movie type of gal lol. I like some girlie flicks.

Well we got everyone here now and Rohan is enjoying playing with the baby who is crawling around. Good practice for when my baby arrives haha. At least I know I will hear the baby through the wall cause the baby is staying in the future baby room. His name is Dion, Rohan's cousin.

[mummy7]

Hope you have a good NYE and be safe..
Kirsten

[cecandchels]

HAPPY NEW YEAR'S EVE!

its nice to see every one on facebook. i think i am cecily g... i thought i changed it but maybe not.

mummy7 im seriously in love with the wall stickers. and the cute lights i bought, they a so pretty!

laylasmumma i was literally sobbing in the notebook. what a sappy movie, but its so great. and i love that guy (so much i dont know his name but whatev).

im just trying to organise tonights plan. this is killing me. originally i was going to a bbq with some friends just locally, but now all friends (without babies) want to go to bronte (which is ages from where we live and hardly any public transport). they would all stay there the night, but i obviously cant. so it will pretty much be impossible to get home. dp still wants to go and thinks i should ask mum to take chels for the whole night. im not really cool with this as its so last minute and she has never stayed a whole night without me. so i still breastfeed her in morning and night and i wont be able to be there in the morn. dp is getting kind of angry at me cause i dont want to go. he is trying to be understanding, but i guess he is frustrated cause we i hardly ever go out with him. i dont know. hopefully he will realise its way to hard to get home and then we will go to the bbq and then hang out with another couple who are friends while everyone else goes out. i think a chilled our new yrs eve sounds perfect, but he wants a crazy one. i guess im too old for that sh!t.

anyways, i hope everyone else has a great night! im going to go on facebook know. :laughing:

xo

[axelandlexismum]

Hey everyone....:wave:

[FertileMertile]

Happy new year everyone! :flowerz:

For all of those that went out I hope you had a great time and for all that didnt I hope you had a good sleep lol

Lou - I had fun yesty! Its so cute to watch the kids play now. They seem to play so much better together. Hope you had a good night with your mum :)

Meg - How is the teething relief stuff working?

matthewsmum - hey there! Welcome to the thread and BH. My DS went thru a non eating stage for a lil while and my child health nurse just said they tend to do that when they 'arent growing' and they will eat if they are hungry and try not to worry. Easier said than done but I also just offered him everything and anything I could think of. She also suggested to put his food on his highchair and walk past and grab some and eat it (without looking at them) and they normally react like "hey dont steal my food" and will then eat it. It worked with DS a few times too. Hope that helps!

Rani - Thats great news about DS sleeping thru till 8! I bet you didnt know yourself when you woke up feeling so refreshed lol

Cec - Happy bday to Chels for monday! The butterfly lights sounds really cute! I cant wait to redo both of the kids rooms. Sounds like it wont be long till Chels is walking! How exciting :smiliedance: Oh and I added you to fb too! Dont blame you at all for not wanting to go out. What did you end up doing?

Lauren - How was your shopping day? Its so good not to push a pram thru the crowds! So i take it your bbq didnt go ahead ay? :thumbsdown:

Morgan - So cute about rohan playing with the baby! Hopefully it will make him excited about his lil bro/sis to be!

Kirsten - tick tick tick hehe Sending you labour vibes :D


AFM - Well I didnt end up doing anything last night it was great. Just got some movies out and was in bed by 930 lol Today I pretty much plan to do the same. I love lazy days!

[axelandlexismum]

Good morning all....
Hope you all had a wonderful new years! We just went to a friends place for a bbq and listened to old music lol and watched fireworks.... It was good :)
Well the teething seems to be on a low yesterday and today so far but the stuff we brought was good yeah...:smiliedance:
Well i hope everyone is feling good today, we to are staying home having a lazy day (ther so good)...

Hi all,

Wow NY was over quickly again, I was in bed by 1030. It's just another day to me! :laughing: I don't think I have ever celebrated NY lol. BORING!

Jayson went to bed about 3am, I was in the loo and he walked in. I'm like hello the light is on! :rolleyes:

I hope everyone else had a good time!

Oh yeah we have people staying here as you know and 2 things are ****ing me off.

1. Jayson's brothers dog keeps lying on MY dogs bed and I have to keep turfing his dog off. His dog keeps asserting dominance over my dog and It's like **** off and go dig a hole over there lol. Now my dog is acting all submissive and cowering.

2. We have a baby staying with us and some other person keeps shushing me and Rohan in my own house. Yes I'm being quiet and as for Rohan his a kid and I'm trying to shush him. Grrrr! I really hate being told what to do in MY house. The person isn't even the mum of the baby!

Yes very petty haha..

[1stTimeMum09]

Hello girls and hello 2009 :D

FM-hehe..The clock is ticking and I wish it would hurry up :laughing: I love lazy days as well..

Ixnay-you sound like your in the mad house at the moment. :hugs: I hate when people tell you what to do in your home..

Hope you have a good day..
Kirsten

[embryonichappyperson]

Kirsten-I agree! I'm so effin tired! I can't sleep during the day either, I just feel worse.

[mummy7]

Axelsmumy - Glad bubs teething is on the low. What did u end up using 4 his teething?

[axelandlexismum]

Hey mummy7...:wave:
Glad you had a good new years!
Um i went and brought the teething drops called Breaur, there good but the intructions dont make sense lol, might be just me that doesnt get them lol... :o
It sasys something like 2ml every half hour for 4 doses then every 4 hrs but does that mean every time i use it i have to give him the 2ml every half hour for 4 doses???
It doesnt really make it clear wat to do! lol...
I also got some nuroffen too for him to help with his lil cold that doesnt seem to go away...:(
Well hope to speak to everyone soon!!!
Dont forget everyone add me on facebook...

[cecandchels]

hey guys.

its so exciting to see u all on facebook :)

im just watching pinapple express with dp, pretty funny.

so last night ended up being good. we didnt go to the parrty and dp was really good about it, he didnt even want to go in the end. so it was just us and another couple and we had a few drinks and then headed out to the local (pretty seedy but whatev). i think i overindulged a little tho, mum found me sleeping in the hall way at some time in the early morning cause i didnt want to wake chels. ha ha. feeling very seedy today tho. wow. chels was fine slept till 8.30, then luckily mum took her out and gave her brekky while i slept more.

axelsmummy i was heaps confused by the doses and all that stuff with the teething tablets too. so ur not stupid, unless i am too :laughing:

mummy7 ur night sounded so nice. what movie did u end up wathcing?

xnay i totally know what u mean by being p!ssed off by staying with ppl. we were stying with dp's family up the coast and it was so crowded and i was just over it bu the time we left.

hello to everyone else :wave::wave:

and HAPPY NEW YEAR :smiliedance:

[mixi_mama]

Hey everyone - just wanted to apologise for not being on over the holidays. Still working like a lunatic. But yeh same old when it comes to that huh lol
Teina is over at her dads till tomorrow night. Took her to southbank last night so she could watch the fireworks over the river for new years - they had the first set of fireworks go off at 8:30 that wasnt to bad time wise with a toddler.
She had so much fun - i got her a magic wand that lit up and she was waving it around and having a blast. My friend bought his niece and his mum so it was fun that Teina had one of her best friends there.
But havent really had a chance to catch up on everyone - and i trully apologise. But i will - i have this weekend off plus i want to show you lovely ladies my new years pics of teina.
MWA !! Take care - ill be on tomorrow

[xlouxloux]

:sunshine: :smiliedance: HAPPY NEW YEAR :smiliedance: :sunshine:

hope everyone had a safe and happy day/night!!
We had a real quiet one, my mum came over for dinner n we watched Hancock then she left around 1030 n Steven and i played games on the wii, stayed up to hear the fireworks then went to bed lol. Alyssa had another mamouth sleep in (820!!) i think shes moving down to 1 day nap now which i dont mind cos thats usually around 3 hrs. Im a bit worried about her eating at the moment, she refuses everything but yoghurt and grapes but is drinking her bottles fine and having lots of water. Im thinking its just the heat but im gunna keep an eye on it. any ideas on cold foods i can give her? hopefully she wont get fed up of yoghurt lol
Mum n Steven managed to get tomorrow off work so Steven is babysitting while mum n i go to the movies yay!!! seeing The Curious Case of Benjamin Button - heard its really good. Nothing else planned for the w/e just food shopping and cleaning w00h00

Mel - what u up to i havent seen u all year!!! lol im funny :D catch up on the w/e sometime?

Kirsten - sending u lots of labour vibes!!! everytime i get online i expect to see a msg saying uve gone into labour hehe

Ixnay - grrr that would be so annoying! i wouldnt be able to not retaliate if someone shhh'd me in my own home. U needa tell them that its ur home and they chose to visit and ur not going to tip toe around ur house for them. yes u will accomodate them but sheesh they gotta realise u cant stop ur daily life. (sorry got a bit carried away lol!)

Axelsmummy - it means for the first doses u give them it every half hr then after 4 doses (2hrs) u go to 4 hrly for that day. it is confusing lol i had to get Mel to explain it to me first time i used it

mummy7 - mmm loveeee italian food! enjoy ur early night!

cecandchels - how did ur night end up going? it sucks when u just dont feel up to a big night n ur partner does.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!!!

Hellooooooooo ladies how are you?

How has your weekend been? Mine has been pretty chilled. Everyone went home on Sat and I cleaned the house from top to bottom :laughing:

I went out with DP and Rohan today to the park and then we had a walk along the beach then had some ice cream.

I have been so tiiiiired lately!

[mummy7]

Good evening lovely ladies,
How have every1s wk wnds been?? It was so nice and sunny here in Tas today... yay at last a little taste of summer. Think I got burnt today from soaking it up. Xavier is so.. close to walking!!! Cruising around non stop and still loving his shoes.. so proud of him!
Just a question.. Xavier is basically on cows milk now instead of formula..:yelclap: but what do you do when you need to travel? I have that reusable ice and baby cool bag/eskie thingy but i am paranoid that during summer it will go yuk. What does every1 else do?
Spent the whole wkend w dp which was really
nice... too nice.. think I am starting to feel myself falling hard and fast for him :bee: and even though we grew up together it is scary. I guess I am just a bit funny after all I have gone through w Xav's dad over the past cpl of yrs....men .. hmmmmm :rolleyes: lol. When do u know lust turns into love? Esp when u already love them to bits as a childhood friend? Sorry to **** on gals.. just tell me to shush lol...
Kirsten - How r u going huny??? Hanging in there? I ate really hot curry, had a really warm/hot bath and went for a big walk around the city window shopping and wizz bang.. labour. Dont know if any of that actually assisted or if it was just coinsedence.. but that was my day b4 labour.. Thinking of u gal.

Also this morning I was saying good morning to bubs and he gave me a kick it was so cute :cloud9:

Well I hope you all are well and hopefully soon I will have soon news..

Kirsten :flowerz:

[xlouxloux]

Mummy7 - that was the reason i went to Toddler milk not cows milk, i often am out when Alyssa is due her middle of the day bottle, its so easy just taking a bottle of water n powder. Im sure using ice packs would be fine if u werent out for too long and it wasnt in direct sunlight.

Kirsten - glad to hear everything is going well, sounds like ur body is getting ready to me! yay! hehe

Ixnay - yay for ur guests leaving! must be nice to have ur house back to urself hehe.

cecandchels - the movie was great! a bit of a tearjerker and a bit long but i really enjoyed it hey. Strange story lines are good hehe

AFM - had a lazy morning cleaning today then went to the pool with DF and Alyssa this arvo, was nice. Im not looking forward to tomorrow, Alyssa is having her first day at daycare :( wahhhhhh i dont know if i will leave her there yet, i have alot of time before uni starts to settle her in so im gunna she how she goes and take it slow. she will be there for 2 days a week (mon n thurs) for around 5-6 hrs eventually, just means ill have time to study n get assignments done do some shopping n cleaning. So glad uni is at night hehe id miss her too much :D

[JJJRain-crew]

hello i was reading ur posts partly cause i am too lazy to leave bed where my laptop is lol but mostly cause u all sound so interesting tho. I am from the Gcoast with a little girl who is going on 7 months, just started crawling so now i have to strap on my toolbelt full of babyproof gear YAY! LOL i was thinking that i might just get her a big cage (also known as a playpen LOL) and let her go or else move somewhere with a large paddok and she can roam free like a happy choock LOL. at least that way i wouldnt need to worry about nappies, I could just let nature di its thing :laughing:
anyway, I am 21, did i alredy say that? And i am engaged to a guy...no way get out LOL he is also 21 and we met 5 years ago as i recall :laughing:. Just saying hi to u all...HI, now that i finally got to the point I will bid u all a good day!! hopefully chat soon :) PEACE :)

[embryonichappyperson]

Yep it's great that everyone is gone and now DP is back at work and I can have some peace...still got Rohan around but his not annoying atm. :laughing:

It was good to see everyone, but I like my peace. We are going to Perth in a couple and we are going to catch up with everyone again at a bbq for Australia Day. Should be good and very busy in Perth.

I'm getting my 19 week scan and I'm going to find out the sex. Btw what do you think of the name Logan?

[FertileMertile]

Morning everyone! :flowerz:

How was your weekends?

Kirsten - Still here? :rolleyes: hehe j/k Hopefully something happens soon!

cec - How did you like pineapple express? Me and DP watched it the same day as you lol I thought it was really funny. I also got out the new Harold and Kumar movie that was hilarious!

Lou - Good luck with Alyssa starting daycare today!

Rani - Great to hear that things are going well with DP!

Rainjaa - welcome to the thread! Im Mel, 24 have a DS who is 16 months and 19 (almost 20) weeks preg with #2.

Morgan - Glad to hear that your house is back to normal and you can have your peace and quiet back! When is your 19 week scan booked in? I really like the name Logan :yes:

Hello to eveyone else!

AFM - Well I had a busy weekend of painting DS's room and I can safely say that I hate painting lol But the room looks great :D I went for my deluxe spa pedicure (thanks lou!) on sat and loved it so much I got a manicure to match. I highly recommend a spa pedi just so you can sit in those comfy massage chairs :goodvibes: Im so excited that I only have 2 days till my 20 week scan! Hopefully will find out what im having. Its driving me nuts not knowing lol. Then I can get painting and decorating in the new babies room. We are also thinking of selling the house too so DP wants to re paint the whole place and possibly do some re tiling. Fun times ahead lol

[xlouxloux]

Rainjaa - hey, im lou, also 21 and engaged to DDs dad. Glad u decided to post :) we love fresh meat - i mean, new people to talk to lol. Its hard when they first start crawlling, no more sitting n watching them hehe

ixnay - i quite like the name Logan! hadnt considered it myself but i think it would go well with Rohan (im for siblings names going together lol)

AFM - i didnt enjoy dropping Alyssa off at all this morning, we got there just before 9 n i left about 10past going to pick her up just after they have lunch. i think 2 hrs is a good amount for her first day, i dont wanna overwhelm her. She screamed when i handed her over but i expected that shes always been a bit clingy towards me. Did all my cleaning while ive been home alone it grosses me out how much cr@p comes out of this carpet when i vaccum blerk! (we have one of those dust catchers) the a/c smells like dust when its on 'cool' so im thinking thats why, no idea how to stop it though :barf:

well im off to pick up Alyssa YAY!!! hehe have a good one!

[embryonichappyperson]

LOL I keep getting told Logan is a bogan name. :laughing: I don't think it does! What exactly is a bogan name? What type of name is considered a bogan name? What factor about a name makes it boganish?:confused:

Oh yeah and apparently its an *American* name lol. I'm thinking yeaaaaaaaaah so what? I'm not American and I don't live there! :cool: So I fail to see the point! Do you? lmao!

Though everyone is entitled to their own opinion since this is a public forum! :p

O...M...G I have had the worst headache allllllll day. I popped some Panadol and it's taken the edge off. I think I'm seriously dehydrated!

On the upside Rohan is doing well at swimming lessons and looks set to pass Stage 1. :smiliedance: I just hate sitting in the heat with all the flies at the pool :o

xlouxloux- Hopefully she will get better with daycare! I used to drop Rohan off once a week when he was younger and he loved it after he got over the fact I was leaving him behind and he thought he was missing out on something super exciting. Which he wasn't I assure you!

[FertileMertile]

I dont think Logan is a bogan name :confused:

The name Damien on the other hand is definately a bogan name (eg Damo) Anything you can put 'zza' or 'amo' on the end of is a bogan name lol Eg, Gary = Gazza

[laylasmumma23]

Howdy ladies...how are we all? i think i'm losing weight just by sittin on my butt...its soooo hot!!! *melts*..luv it tho, i finally went swimming with dd, she loved it.

loux-awww first day of childcare i remember having to take kids away from their mums..it was sooo horrible...but dw she will get used to it..so used to it in fact you will drop her off and she'll run off and play without even saying goodbye lol..you will be the one who gets upset then :laughing:

Rain-i believe we've met before mwhahahaha!! lol
welcome you crazy chick..i cant believe your dd is crawling now awwww...i do recommend a playpen..my dd is to big for hers now..but it comes in handy at chrissy time to protect the tree.

Kirsten- how are ya? still waddling about?..*sending you labour vibes* you belly must feel sooo tight! glad your scare was just a scare and bubs is alright. :hugs:

Mel-hmmm are we placing bets on taco or hotdog?...i think...taco! :laughing:
Omg im allergic to painting..i helped to paint my parents house once...never again!! my muscles were so sore and i got paint in my hair (stupid me forgot my head scarf ) what colour did you paint it?
bet your gettin excited about doing up a nursery again..that was probably the most fun part about being preggers.
Your pamper sounds sooo nice..jealous..who me?..maybe LOL :raspberry:

Mummy7-i saw piccies of you xavier's shoes..he's totally "to cool for school' lol
hmmm milk is one of those things that you have to keep cold. If it was me i would buy it fresh when i got to my destination (if possible) then put it straight into a cooler bag with ice, or get him to drink it straight away (you can get small cartons of milk depending on how much you need) , not all of it obviously. I usually just put dd's formula straight into the fridge when i get to my destination.

ixnay- hmmm...logan and rohan..hmmm i think they go nice.
as for bogan names...i think it depends on the child but all braydens i have known (child and adult) have been total 'bogans'...as in totally feral with attidude, behaviours and they way that they present themselves ( i dont think one of them ever showered! yuck!)..but thats just my experience..lol..im sure other braydens are nice lol
I agree with mel though..gazz and bazz..gross!!

glad you have your peace and quiet now...you should go swimming with rohan..sadly i've traded in the ol bikini :crying: i now have to wear a singlet bather top ( i am not goin a one piece..not totally granny yet-no offence to anyone that wears one! lol )
hope you headache goes away.

hey to anyone i've missed..im kinda a bit behind..again!! lol..oops!..im trying..i really am..
AFM- its hot!!! finally some summer weather..and my aircon breaks..GRRR!! lol me and dd have been living in her lil pool...she gets cross at me though so i have to get out...lil miss she is!
Not been up to anything exciting, did a bit of shopping, dd is getting 4 teeth at once but cruising along..cant be arsed doing the washing..boring house work type stuff..woot!

anywho i know a lil someone who needs a nappy change...peee uuu!! catch ya lataz xx

[embryonichappyperson]

Yeah I know, I don't get how it's boganish....lol

[embryonichappyperson]

ixnay- hmmm...logan and rohan..hmmm i think they go nice.

Looking forward to hearing all bout ur journey and your new lil man. Well done!!!!! xo

[cecandchels]

hello girls,

it seems ive been a bit m.i.a over the weekend.

firstly CONGRATULATIONS KIRSTEN! im so glad he is finally here and thankyou for letting us share ur pregnancy. its been so exciting. now i cant wait for the photos on fb.

lou - how did alyssa go at daycare? when we were in hamilton we put chelsea in a couple of times and i was so freaked out, she on the other hand loved it, even waved us goodbye. i on the other hand was devo she didnt even cry. ha ha.

rainjaa - hello and welcome!! im cec, 22 with 1 yr old (sounds so old) dd.

ixnay - i think that name is great, and i agree with the others, it really does go well with rohan. how exciting to find out the sex. im getting taco vibes too.

FM - i though pineapple express was so funny. i love the dealer guy. now, as usual, the dvds are way overdue, have to drop them back today. grr. thats exciting about selling ur house, where wil u move?

laylasmumma - that is so cute she gets annoyed when u are in her pool. its been so hot here in sydney yest and today too. im considering heading to mums to go for a swim.

mummy7 - how far is hobart from where u live? i used to have to drive out to bathurst for uni which was 2.5 hrs every week and i hated driving by myself too. esp when my cd/radio broke and all i would have to listen to was am radio. i grew to love 702 abc talkback.

AFM - the tv unit arrived yesterday and it took us 11 hours to put together (there are 3 pieces and we took breaks :laughing:). im suprised we didnt kill each other it was so frustrating. but we also went and bought a new tv with xmas monies and that is arriving today. so exciting, we have been using a really old tv, not even widescreen which cuts off half the picture. but now we are going to 42" plasma it right up. woot. and chels is so close to walking too and i cant wait. well ill be off to make her some brekky.

chat soon. xo

[embryonichappyperson]

OMG Kirsten had her baby? CONGRATS! Hope all is well! :smiliedance:


ixnay - i think that name is great, and i agree with the others, it really does go well with rohan. how exciting to find out the sex. im getting taco vibes too.

Yeah I know it ain't that bad haha. DP said that we will concentrate on names more when we find out what we are having in a couple of weeks lol. Off to Perth on the 20th!

LOL taco vibes! It took me a min to figure out what you meant. Ya never know, could be a girl!

I hate putting stuff together too, DP usually blows his lid and I'm trying to calm him down lol.


Ixnay - I love the name Logan... Beautiful and timeless name imo :yes: There is nothing bogan about that name at all!!!! I agree w Mel about Gazza and lets not forget Bazza lol. Hope ur headaches are easing... u poor thing. What sex do you think bub is??? Thinking pink??

I keep thinking girl too, yeah I'm thinking pink. It will be funny if it turns out to be a boy after all this.

[axelandlexismum]

Congratulations Kristen.....:smiliedance:
Well done on the safe arrival of your lil man Riley yeah!!!!!!!!:flowerz:

[cecandchels]

I hate putting stuff together too, DP usually blows his lid and I'm trying to calm him down lol.


thats is exactly the same with me! he goes crazy, gets so frustrated and im just trying to keep him from breaking it, and everything else. ha ha.

[FertileMertile]

Congratz to Kirsten on the arrival of lil Ryley! :smiliedance:

Omg thats so exciting about the arrival of Ryley! Cant wait to hear all about it!

Lauren - I dont think I could ever make tacos ever again after all this 'taco' talk lol Im keeping my fingers crossed but knowing my luck id have another boy :rolleyes: Just looking forward to making sure eveything is ok with bubs. How hot has it been in Adelaide? Its been 35ish in Perth for the past week but lucky im in a/c most of the time so havent suffered too bad.

Megan - Havent touched the painting since sun :laughing: I might have a crack at the skirting boards tonight if I can be bothered. Hows the teething going?

Rani - Hope you enjoy your drive to Hobart! Does Xav like the car? Hopefully he will sleep most the way for you. Beauty school sounds so cool! Have always wanted to do something like that

Cec - Yeh that dealer guy on PE was so damn funny. Havent got anything set in concrete about selling up yet just thinking bout it. DP would have to sell the business and his bro is a part owner so all depends if he is up for it too. If we DO move, DP wants to move to Denmark which is 5 hours south of perth. Not that keen about leaving my friends and family but might be nice to move to the country. I had to crack up when I read it took you 11 hours to put the tv unit together lol I dont dare put anything together in our house its always up to DP but he is the type that can fix/make anything so I figure its his own fault for being so damn handy lol How exciting getting a plasma!

Morgan - I really hope we both get our tacos lol :p

AFM - I am at work today *sigh* Would rather be at home tackling the rest of my painting. I think I might try to finish it tonight while DP is at soccer. Apart from that nothing new happening here but I am happy to be back to boring life hehe :)

[axelandlexismum]

Hey mel...:wave:

Glad to hear you havent touched the painting lol dunno how you do it lol.... Teething is going ok, still nothing :no:...
Are you excited to go for your scan? When is it again? Think pink lol...
How exciting about Kristen!!!

Well hope the rest of you are enjoying your day, its hot down in melbourne today which is a shock lol...
Well have good day all speak soon!





Me-23, DF-31 :hugs:
DS-6mths... :smiliedance:

[FertileMertile]

Meg - I hate how they teeth for ages and nothing comes thru! DS started 'teething' at 3 months old but didnt pop out his first tooth till he was 10 months! He is 16 months and still only has 6 teeth.
My scan is tomorrow! :smiliedance: I have always thought it would be a girl but could just be wishfull thinking :)

[embryonichappyperson]

Hope you get your taco! lolz :D

[axelandlexismum]

Hey...

Mel- Hope your scan goes good tomorrow il be thinking pink for you :fingerscrossed: lol... yeah Axel has been teething since bout 3 mths but its just started getting worse hopefully soon we get one through.... else im gonna go crazy :hair:

Question,is it wrong of me to be upset coz DF is playing golf thursday morning before work instead of spending time with us??



Hey all kristen posted on facebook Riley Daved weighing 3970 wow!!!!






Me-23, DF-31 :hugs:
DS-6mths :smiliedance:

[FertileMertile]

Hope you get your taco! lolz :D


That word is officially tainted :laughing:

[FertileMertile]

Yeh I saw that Kirsten updated her status! That would make Ryley weighing 8 pound 7 in old terms i think?? Decent size bub thats for sure! :D
I think its normal to be annoyed at DF for wanting to play golf but we have to remember that they need time out time too. Just means that he owes you some to yourself :)

[embryonichappyperson]

LOL i just remembered the term *pink taco* hahahahaha!

Yeah that's a nice size, doubt i will be having one that small.

I went to the op shop today and saw so many cute suits in good nick, I want to buy them now!

[FertileMertile]

LOL i just remembered the term *pink taco* hahahahaha!

Yeah that's a nice size, doubt i will be having one that small.

I went to the op shop today and saw so many cute suits in good nick, I want to buy them now!

Thaaaaaats right Rohan was 10/11 pound something wasnt he?

Its SO tempting to buy baby clothes. I was very close to buying a gorgeous girl newborn outfit the other week but didnt. If I am having a boy I still have everything from DS so wont need to buy hardley any clothes which I spose would be handy.

[axelandlexismum]

Hey...:wave:

Thats bigger then 8pd 7, Axel was 3890kg which was 8pd 9oz lol....
Still a good size though hehe!!!
Yeah i know he needs time out too but i dont get much and i like spending time with the 3 of us but he would rather play **** golf lol... oh well il go shopping lol...:laughing:




Me-23, DF-31 :hugs:
DS-6mths :smiliedance:

[embryonichappyperson]

haaaaaats right Rohan was 10/11 pound something wasnt he?

11lb 15oz hahaha.

I guess it wouldn't really matter if I did buy girl stuff too. All the clothes are like 50c each at the opshop.

[cecandchels]

hey all.

mel - so have u had ur scan yet? what are u having, or is it a secret?

meg - how is the teething going? did u find the teething relief good, was it the bauer's one? i bought that yesterday cause i ran out of hyland's teething tablets and not many chemist around here stock them, if any. i think its going ok. chels loves the taste of it so that helps.

morgan - i cant believe rohan was 11lb 15oz. thats nearly double the size of chels who was just a wee 6lb 5oz... hectic.

:wave: to all the other lovely ladies today!

AFM - well, we got the plasma yesterday and finally finished putting together the cabinets. set everything up got all excited to finally watch a dvd on a decent tv and about an hour in... its broke. there are coloured lines running down the screen and i called this morning and they have to replace it. and its going to take a week!! arrgh! so frustrating, stuff like this always happens to me it seems. nothing is ever simple. luckily we bought an extended warranty so the next 5 yrs are covered. anyway, dont buy an LG plasma! other then that its so damn hot in sydney today, might head to mum's for a swim.

xo

[embryonichappyperson]

Yeah I can't believe he was that big either, to look at him today you wouldn't think he was that big. Only thing that gives him away is his height and big feet lol.

[axelandlexismum]

Hey all...:wave:

Mel- Did you have your scan? Is it pink or blue? Please tell us all....

Cec- Hey the teething is going ok on a low for a couple of days, still no teeth err... Yeah i got Breaur its good it works when i use it lol

Ixnay- Wow cant believe your lil boy was that big well done on your behalf lol...

Speak soon ladies hello everyone else!!!





Me-23, DF-31 :hugs:
DS-6mths :smiliedance:

[FertileMertile]

Hey everyone,

Well had my scan today and bubs is healthy and normal which is great but found out that im having another boy. I wont lie, im pretty devestated and I know thats selfish but I just wanted a girl so bad but happy my baby is healthy.

I hope everyone is having a nice day and ill be back for personals a lil later on just feeling a bit :gloomy:

[embryonichappyperson]

Ixnay- Wow cant believe your lil boy was that big well done on your behalf lol...
Haha thanks! Was not good at all, worst experience of my life thus far hahaha.


Well had my scan today and bubs is healthy and normal which is great but found out that im having another boy. I wont lie, im pretty devestated and I know thats selfish but I just wanted a girl so bad but happy my baby is healthy.

I hope everyone is having a nice day and ill be back for personals a lil later on just feeling a bit :gloomy:Awwww I hope you feel better! I'm sorry you didn't get your girl. Don't know really what to type in this situation. If I typed at least your boy is healthy I might be taken as condescending.

(Which I'm not of course hehe).

[FertileMertile]

Aww thats ok Morgan! Im pretty much over my lil hissy fit now :D

It will be better for Seth to have a lil bro to play with and especially as they are not far apart in age I hope it means that they will be the best of friends. It will also be cheaper when it comes to clothes etc!

Now that I know im having a boy I need to decide on what colour paint this bubs room. I just painted DS's new room a really dark blue. Anyone have any ideas? :)

[xlouxloux]

Eveningggggg Alyssa is in beg (whinging every now n then) and Steven is playing CounterStrike so here i am! Bored and tired. Been sleeping cr@p again lately, cant get to sleep at night n just feeling tired all day so annoying!
Went out shopping with Mel today, had lunch n picked up some bargains. pair of white sandles for Alyssa and some baby havianas, 2 hats for her n a safty gate so she cant get under my feet in the kitchen.
ooo and i got a new handbag for me :D with my $97.40 lotto win from Sat hehe i love it
*warning whinge ahead* i hate summer! im over the heat im over the sun im over smelly people in the shops. GAH cool down Perth! 35+ for 3 weeks is NOT nice. :( bring on winter!!

Mel - i think ur right about Seth having a brother. Will be great for them to go do boy stuff together when they are older hehe as for a colour hmmmm maybe green? i quite like green and its meant to be really calming.

Ixnay - ur next!!! shall we start taking bets as to what the sex is? do u have any ideas/guesses?

Axelsmummy - teething is the pits. Alyssa teethed for ever with no teeth. she has 4 and is 13 months :rolleyes: so frustrating. hope they make an appearance soon

cecandchels - grrrr how frustrating!! u should ask for some kind of compensation. lol thats so rubbish u get it and its already busted :no:

Kirsten - BIG CONGRATS TO YOU FOR THE SAFE ARRIVAL OF LITTLE MAN RYLEY!!! Hope ur getting all the rest u can and cant wait to see him!

[embryonichappyperson]

Haha! Ok? Go for it!

TAKING BETS NOW AS TO WHAT SEX MY BABY IS! PLACE THEM HERE! :D

I'm feeling girl, but I just want a girl. But my bet is a boy!

SO MY BET IS I'M HAVING A BOY! :p

[FertileMertile]

My bet is that your having a girl! :)

[embryonichappyperson]

LOL Everyone assumes when you have had a boy your gonna have a girl! I don't mean any of you but just people I know and friends and family. :rolleyes:

Ok my name lists so far are:

Boy
Logan
Deacon
Quinn
Griffin

Girl
Anika
Anya
Dannan
Narhys
Danika
Liesl
Bryn

Odd yes but that's how I roll! :D

Pick apart or tell me what you like! Haha!

Psssssst! I need more boys names! NOTE I like different and unusual and old fashioned. Got any girls names then hey that's good too.

[laylasmumma23]

Howdy Ladies..

A BIG CONGRATS TO KIRSTEN :yelclap:!!! welcome to the world little Ryley :baby:...rest up as much as you can.

Mel- Glad bubs is healthy, know your a bit bummed. But just think of the money you will save with hand me downs :thumbsup: like i said on FB you could always make him wear "salmon"..its totally in and only real boys can pull it off LOL
Hmmm as for painting maybe a dark green teal type colour..or a light blue so you have a dark blue light blue type theme..

Loux- i have a safety gate! i love it..i can move it around from door to door keep her out of they way and keeps toys in one room (most of the time lol)
I never win anything..and yes i do enter! The last thing i won was like when i was 7 i won a bmx bike lol woooo lucky me.
Adelaide's weather isn't that much better..it gets hot, then cold then hot then cold..we had 32 yesturday and today was 25...its so weird..i think its safe to say i can skip the fake tan this year LOL
sending you sleep fairies :wizard: the weather doesn't help.

Do you find the bigger the handbag the more cr@p you cart around? i have a small handbag at the moment..but it has heaps of pockets..and surprise surprise they are packed full of cr@p.
Dummies, hair clips, tissues bandaids, lip balm..arr the perils of a girls handbag lol

Cec- that sux about your tv..i would be sooo mad! I am yet to get a fancy plasma tv..at the mo i have a cheapie kmart tv..LOL

Axelsmum-hows axels teething? Layla's getting her top teeth at the moment FINALLY!.. i saw the video on FB of Axel in his jolly jumper..sooo cute! Layla is to big for her Jolly jumper now, but she loved it!

Mummy7- Yeah how sad is it that we have to trade in the bikini..arr well.my stretchies aren't to bad anymore...i used stretch mark eraser cream and it worked really well...its just my muffin top i cant get rid of.
Layla is cutting her to top teeth. She is a very slow teether. She only got her 2 bottoms at 9-10 months and stopped.

Ixnay-oooooo im thinking... PINK!
hmmmm i like deacon the best from your boy list i think..
as for more 'different' boy names-

[mixi_mama]

Hi everyone :wave:

Well Teinas birthday is on Tuesday.. turns the big 3. Cant believe she is growing up so quickly. Took her out shopping on Tuesday asI decided she can have an update on clothes and so forth. I never realised how much my daughter loved anything with pink and black skulls on it lol. Walked out with about 7 huge bags and I kid you not I set myself a limit of $150 and only spent $110. Got her clothes, sohes, hair accessories aswell as a new Dora backpack for daycare. I was really impressed!
Got her party on Saturday. Going to be 5 toddlers and their mums (its great cause i grew up with all the mums and their my close friends). Going to have a blast. Plan to take a heap of pics.

KIRSTEN!! CONGRATS ON THE NEW BUB HUN!!

ixnay - Well count me in for thinking you'll have a boy. As for the names, I really like Quinn but Ive always loved the name Quentin. At least with Quentin you can always call him Quinn as a say, nickname. And girls names I really like Anya. Have a bucket load of differant baby names, so if you want me to throw a few around let me know :)

xlouxloux - Sorry to hear you dont really like Summer. Its my favorite season but dont worry - it wont be long till autumn. Oh and congrats on the handbag.. bet it looks gorgeous!

laylasmumma23 - i know exactly what you mean. Ive got a habit of really wanting something, I go out to get it and end up going home with stuff for the house and mostly stuff for Teina. I really need to organise a day to go out with some of my chick friends, baby free and just go in on a mission lol

FertileMertile Congrats hun that you had a healthy baby come up on the scan. And another boy huh! Dont worry girl..you can handle anything and you'll get that little girl eventually.. man what would you do if you were pregnant with a girl and whoever did your scan was somewhat "genital blind" lol - sorry just trying to make a little giggle. But your baby will me amazing regardless of the sex hun :hugs:

[axelandlexismum]

morning all.....:wave:

Well just so everyone knows still NO TEETH!!!! Errr....

Ixnay- im voting BOY.... And i like the name Logan, also the other names were good but that was my fav....
The only names i had on my list were-
*Riley
*Bailey
*Cooper
*Caden
And Axel of course lol hope that helped a bit...

Mel- congrats on the healthy baby, and having another boy! Just think of the $$$ you will save.... Hope your feeling better

Laylasmummy- Well we still have no teeth, but he hasnt been too bad lately (now i said that its gonna start all over again), yeah he loves his jolly jumper, its not a very good video bit blurred oh well lol....

Mixi_mumma- Wow the big 3 how exciting... Say happy birthday for then!!!!

Xlouxloux- I know how you feel bout the heat cant stand it anymore, before i was preggas i loved it now even though im not preggas i still HATE it lol... Im lucky melbourne weather hasnt been too hot this year, well good luck with it stay cool....

[cecandchels]

goodmorning girls.

mel - im pretty sure its normal to feel a bit sad when u were wanting a girl but have a boy. im sure ive read somewhere about grieving for what u thought u had, if that makes sense. we were all so sure that i was having a boy when i found out she was a girl i felt heaps weird for a while and i know my dp had some down time. but its true what mixi_mama said, he will be amazing regardless of the sex :hugs:

mixi_muma - that is awesome about only spending $110. i always go over budget when buying things for chels as the past christmas and brithday has shown. and she def needs some more clothes. all the clothes i bought for her birthday are a tad large cause im hopeless at estimating sizes. have to go back to 0's.

lauren - before the plasma we had dp's aunts old one that was about 100 yrs old, so to get the new one and now go back to the old one is devo. esp with the new one still sitting there being all tempting. grr. and i love some of the names u pointed out, very similar to my boys names list, archer, noah, hunter, austin, finn. i loved finn.

morgan - im betting ur having what ever it is u think ur not having, so a boy? i like quinn from ur list.

lou - i dont even know how u can be coping with the heat, sydney only had it for a coupld of days (its much cooler today) and i nearly died. im an autumn/spring kinda girl i think.

:wave::wave: to all i have not personaled!

AFM - im heading out for lunch today but have to do some housework before i go which is not fun. i really cant be bothered but then i will feel guilty for going out, u know? we might be heading up the coast to dp's mum's holiday house which will be nice, crowded but nice. i wont be to devo if we dont go tho. well, off to clean kitchen and do laundry - wow what an exciting life i do lead.

xo

[mummy7]

Morning ladies,
Well well well... I am so happy to be home. I stayed overnight w my sister Tues and Xav was a nightmare!! He hardly slept at all. Poor lil monkey.. just wanted to go home. he was very happy to see his bed and all his toys... quite the lil homebody. Wont be staying overnight again in a hurry hehe.. Caught up w a girlfriend when I was in Hbt and she gave me a huge box of clothes her twins hardly wore.. I am stoked.. lots of bonds gear.. I am a bonds baby freak so I am loving it!! Lots of little hoodies and jeans. She has saved me a stack of money thats for sure. What a generous angel she is :yes:
miximama - How cute Teina loves anything pink w black skulls.. The big 3 WOW!!! Party sounds like it will be fun.
laylasmumma - I hear you w the handbag drama... My bag is full of sh!t. I swear there is a little world living inside my handbag lol. I have thought about getting a bikini w a rashy too.... but it kinda defeats the purpose hey lol... think I just have to give up the bikini lol and say hello granny lol
ixnay - I am voting....BOY!!!! I love the name Logan. When is ur scan?
Mel - Congrats on ur healthy bubba!!!!!! Seth is going to love having a little bro.. they will be great mates.... cute... Xavier is not a big sleeper in the car. He will sleep if he is really tired but other than that he is too interested in gazing at the world flying by hehe... As 4 beauty school.. I have always thought about it... so its exciting that I have decided to go ahead w it nxt yr. Ideally I would like to work from home so that I can work around Xavier iykwim... but we wil c...
Lou - Congrats on ur lotto win gal!!!! Woot!!!! What sort of bag did u get? Xavier has some baby havianas but he hates wearing them.. he just loves his cons lol. I hate smelly ppl in shops in summer too lol. i have such a super sonic nose when it comes to yuk smells... especially bo... eeewwww.. makes me feel sick!!! lol.
Cec - Hobart is 2.5hrs away... depends how many trucks r on the road though.... I went ok driving there and back. Was so sleep deprived driving bk yesterday but it was all gd just sung my heart out so much that now I have a husky voice and let me tell u .. its not a sexy husky voice at all.. lol . Would of been so annoying travelling all that way 4 uni.. u poor thing. Do u have to travel there again when u return to uni? I am going to get pineapple express out this wkend.. sounds funny.
Anyway.... have a lovely day ladies!!!
How exciting about lil Ryley!!! Cant wait to hear Kirstens stories about her new lil ray of sunshine!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!

[cecandchels]

mummy7 - that was the first uni i went to, i lived out there on campus and i loved it so i didnt mind much at all. my current uni is literally 2 mins down the rd so its heaps handy for next yr. prac will be the only killer. boo.

[xlouxloux]

Ixnay - my bet is a boy i really like Logan but also from Laylasmummys list i like Landon, Quinn, Aidan and Chase hehe
For a girl i like Anya best outta ur list

Mummy7 - welcome backkkkk! thats so nice about all the free hand me down clothes! bargain! hehe i get some off my mums friend at work but most of them are usually really worn so i send them to the salvos. Sorry to hear Xavier didnt sleep well away from home, Alyssa is EXACTLY the same. Loves her cot too much doh :rolleyes:
I got a Kath Van Zeeland bag, i saw them over a yr ago n wanted one so bad but couldnt justify the price ehehe id always got the cheap $24 ones

Laylasmummy - blerk, it was actually really cool last night but still couldnt get to sleep ended up reading for near 2 hrs. im sure my handbag will get full of **** yes lol its good though it has 2 big sides so one has 2 nappes and wipes in so i can go out without having to take the nappy bag w00t

miximama - i love all the skull clothes for girls at the moment! hehehe i cant wait to get Alyssa into them. so great u managed to get so much without going over budget. The party sounds like it will be great fun! so exciting, 3! :eek:

Axelsmummy - maybe we will have to stop talking about teeth then they will come? lol

cecandchels - had a look at the birthday pics on fb, sooo cute! lil curly hair naww Holiday home sounds great would be nice to be able to pop away for a w/e n relax *wishes*

AFM - just got back from dropping Alyssa at daycare, she screamed when i left again but she was so happy playing while i was sitting with her. Im sure she will be okay, going to pick her up after they have lunch, next week ill leave her till after nap time. Im thinking of going over to mums to watch some foxtel, the house is clean n the washing is on the line so why not! hehe
Hope everyones having a good day!! :flowerz:

[embryonichappyperson]

Hi everyone.

Yeah I'm still thinking boy. Hey at least if it is I got lots of blue stuff from when I had Rohan.

Yeah I like Logan, Quinn and Griffin the best.

I like Anika, Liesl and Anya the best. I spellt Liesl wrong! Haha!

[FertileMertile]

Afternoon everyone! :sunshine:

First off just wanted to apologise for my lil whinge session yesterday :o I got over it very quickly and am very happy with the result!

Morgan - I like Logan and Deacon out of your boys list and Anya out of your girls list. For boys names I like really Masculine names. We have Jake picked out for this bub but we also liked Kane.

Lauren - What about a tankini style bather? Or I really like the one piece with teh cut outs. If your stretch marks are low you could get away with wearing that!

Miximama- Sounds like you got yourself a bargain with all those things you got for Teina! They just grow up way to fast. On tues she wil be 3 but before you know it she will be 13!

Meg - HURRY UP AXELS TEETH! hehe It sucks just waiting and waiting for them! I hope he cuts them soon.

cec - Hope you had a nice lunch and got all your cleaning done! Sux about your plasma! They should give you something for free considering the **** they are putting you thru.

Rani - Sorry to hear that Xav had a bad night :( But great news about the huge box of clothes! I love the bonds range too. They have the cutest pjs.

Lou - I LOVE your new bag. Its so cool and very 'you' hehe Its nice to be able to carry around a normal bag rather than a nappy bag. I wont be able to get away with it from much longer tho! Unless I get that huge guess bag I saw, that would def fit everything I needed in it hehe

AFM - Well havent done too much today. Just pottered around the house and went and picked up my scan pics. I have uploaded a few on fb. I have my pamper sesh at 1500 today :smiliedance: So exciting I forgot all about it actually so im looking forward to it soooooo much. Cant wait to lay on my belly lol Not looking forward to going to work tomorrow. Im considering dropping a day very shortly.

[JJJRain-crew]

ok so here i have been at my laptop for about ten minutes going bear w me posts nd trying to figure out brief life stories from a few comments here and there...so far I know...wait i have forgotten...but bear w me as I will learn as I go....I aint one 4 study LOL.

so anyway...HERE is wat i think of the post baby body issue...and the conclusion i have come to...I like bikinis but i am not to fussed on my post baby streatch marks or new breastfeeding affected breasts...LOL but as i said i like the good old bikinis, so i got over the hiding my body thing...and i braved the old bathers LOL...ppl will get over it...if they ever really had an issue in the 1st place, and I have a little girl who I want to feel confident about herself, for her to know and appreciate everyones differences and flaws...because its our flaws that set us apart from each other and make us unique, plus streach marks are just a sign of life creating life, which is awesome and anyone can appreciate that..so i say who cares...if u love those bikinis, wear them and we'll start a revolution of post baby bikini wearers in all our glory!!!! LOL well anyway thats my peice on the subject and i am sticking to it LOL...

think i will start writting all ur names down in the future so u all no who and wat the hel! i am talking about LOl...so untill next time ladies...PEACE OUT :) ENJOY THE SUMMER!!! i love summer...because i am right on the beach and i get to play in the water all the time :) its awesome. Hope everyone is well, soz i cant remeber all ur names yet...i am working on it.

[JJJRain-crew]

o yeh, u prob noticed my keyboard on this laptop is really crazy insane...it keeps skipping over wat i type LOL plus slight dilsexia on my behalf doesnt help LOL

[embryonichappyperson]

LOL your such a dork jo....:D

[axelandlexismum]

Evening all....

Well Axel has been asleep for an hoir and went done with out a fuss tonight which is always handy lol.... We have had a kinda relaxing day, had lunch with my mum at her work (safeways) lol, then my sister came over and helped me to grocery shopping which was fun! She helped me get HEALTHY food and plan meals lol, we are joining WW together should be good to do something together... Anyway enough of my blabbering on lol.... :ecomcity:

Xlouxloux- Yeah im over talking about teeth im just gonna forget about them and one morning i will wake up and they will be there (hopefully) lol.... Over teeth!!!

Mel- Glad to hear your enjoyed your day spa, wish i was lucky enough to go to one hehe!!! We are giving up on the teeth issue, if i forget bout them they will come lol... Im glad your feeling better about your scan and it wasnt a :hissy: fit....

Rainjaa- Dont worry you will get the hang of it so and remember everyones name trust me lol....

:babydust2:DS-6mths:babydust2:

[cecandchels]

rainjaa i just wanted to say i totally agree with ur bikini notions. i even bought a new one to wear and now i go boardshortless. i figure, if ppl dont like it then dont look. but mainly i just dont care anymore what ppl think. and i like that.

ive been obsessed with the internet today, i think this is my 3rd post here and i have literally been on facebook 5 or 6 times, uploading photos and what not. and yes, i may be bias, but chels' little curls are very cute.

so my sis gave me twighlight (u know that book?) to read cause she wants to see it at the movies with me, and ive only read a couple of chapters but i have succumbed to the hype and i cant stop reading it. anyone else read it? i can see myself being quite obsessed and neglecting chels for a bit :laughing:

right must be off.

ps - mel im glad ur feeling better about everything!

[FertileMertile]

Hey mummas!

My pamper sesh was f#&kin fantastic! Highly recommend even if your not preg :D

Rainjaa - Good on ya luv for not caring what ppl think! I wish I could be alot more like that but im happy to wear boardies and a tankini. For my own benefit really, just in case I catch my own reflection or something :laughing:

Meg - Great news that Axel went down tonight without an issue! So true about the teething thing. I went to my CHN asking her if there was something wrong with Seth but she said not to worry about it so I trusted her and they eventually came :)

cec - Lou is OBSESSED with the twilight series :laughing: Im pretty sure she has read the series twice hehe. I wanna read it. Im just not a book person tho but everyone seems to love it so much I might have a crack at it.

AFM - Well I got a nice surprise when I was putting Seth to bed tonight. We were having a giggle and I saw a flash of white and realised he has cut a tooth! I cant believe I didnt realise! Im pretty sure its a molar on his top gums and he is cutting another on the other side. He has been a lil whingly lately but didnt think he was teething. I just feel a lil bad coz he was obviously in pain and I thought he was just being a whingy bum :o I will keep more of an eye on him in the coming few days i think.

[embryonichappyperson]

Hi all,

Last day of swimming lessons for Rohan yay! I'm sick of driving to the next town.

I tried to read Twilight as someone gave me a copy, I'm sorry to say I'm the odd one out and I can't get into it. I will watch the movie when it comes out on Foxtel and will probably think the same.

Well everyone has their bets on, we will find out in a couple of weeks what I'm having hehe.

I can't wait to go to Perth, we are going to have the morph scan and buy draws from IKEA for the baby room. The only way we can get draws home is flat pack haha. It's cheaper if we buy while in the city and then put them in the car. We have a 4WD, so we got plenty of boot room.

I got my bath insert and sheepskin insert for my pram whenever I get one haha. I'm expecting a terry towelling mattress protecter and that's it for now.

I like the idea of wearing a bikini but it would dissappear into my body lol! I would need the worlds biggest tshirt I think. I hate swimming:laughing:

[axelandlexismum]

Morning...:wave:

Well we are up ready for another day lol... Spending yet another day with my older sister lol, see misses Axel and doesnt get to spend much time with him when she works so its good....

Mel- Wow i wish we could be that lucky with the teeth lol, dont feel bad if he was in the much pain im sure he would have let you know... Wow i wanna be pampered, where did you go for it??

Rainjaa- Hey wish i was the same about the whole bikini thing lol but im staying away from the beach this year lol.... I mean dont get me wrong im happy with my boby coz i know its gone through alot having a baby and im proud of it but i think il keep it to myself lol...

Ces- Hey, yeah i must say im pretty addicted to facebook and bub hub lol its sad hehe but i like talking to everyone!!!!

Ixnay- When do you go for your scan? Hope Rohan has fun at swimming today....

Hi ladies,

I havent posted in this section yet but chatting to some 20-something mums would be nice as Im going to be a first-time mum soon, and none of my friends my age are even close to being parents. :wave:

I have to say, I was always super clucky and wanted babies at a young age, but falling pregnant unexpectedly has been a really tough journey. Sometimes I wish I wasn't pregnant, which probably means Im going to be a terrible mother. :(

Sorry for the bad mood, its probably just hormones.

[FertileMertile]

Hey everyone :flowerz:

Lilahh - Welcome to the thread! Dont think your going to be a bad mum :( I would be lying if I said I have never thought the same b4. Once you have bubs you will forget everything you went thru and it will be all worth it!

Morgan - I dont blame you for being sick and tired of driving to the next town! Glad Rohan has enjoyed his swimming lessons tho. Ikea have some really nice furniture. Im considering buying a few things from there for Seths room. I want to get a toddler bed but DP thinks its a waste of money and should buy a single bed :rolleyes:

Meg - Hope you enjoy spending the day with your sis! I went to a place called Revive Day Spa. It was so nice I really want to go again.


AFM - Im at work today and its going so sloooooow. I was feeling really sick earlier, being really short of breath and really dizzy. I unhooked my bra (lol TMI) and feel 100% better! :smiliedance:

Hope everyone is having a nice day :sunshine:

Hey Lilahh :wave:

I just found out I'm pregnant VERY recently, so my due date is not til long after you.

Chin up cherub, you will get through it and the bundle of joy at the end will be worth it. I dont know what you have gone through, but wishing you werent pregnant doesnt make you a terrible Mummy it just makes you over it! :)

None of my friends have kids either, so we can be loners together :thumbsup: lol

[embryonichappyperson]

I swear to God I have had a really s*** day! I drove over to the town Ravensthorpe where the swimming lessons were Rohan threw up. He started to get sick and he has some 24hr bug.

He failed stage 1 in swimming...again. I don't care about that. I just can't believe he will be 7 next summer with 5 year olds doing lessons again.

Then as I was leaving I dropped my effin fone into the pool! :hair: So now my fone is f**ked! Not pleased! Then I had to drive 50km home with Rohan throwing up all the way. Argh! :banghead:


Morgan - I dont blame you for being sick and tired of driving to the next town! Glad Rohan has enjoyed his swimming lessons tho. Ikea have some really nice furniture.

Oh yeah I'm well and truly over it! :laughing: Yeah I can't wait to go to IKEA.


Ixnay- When do you go for your scan? Hope Rohan has fun at swimming today....


I go on the 22nd of Jan in Perth. Yeah no swimming since he was sick poor kid. What an ordeal! :crying:

[axelandlexismum]

Evening ladies...

Well im relaxing after a day of driving around and Axel is now sleeping yeah lol...

Mel- Yeah we had fun with my sis again and we are seeing her again tomorrow lol... That place sounds good you should definatly go again before you are due!

Ixnay- Oh poor lil dude sick, thats no good... Im sure he will pass his swimming! Are you getting excited about your scan?

PCP- Hey are you knew on here? Or have i just forgotten lol...

Lilahh- Hey im megean and im also 23 with my first baby, i to have no friends with babies so i know how you feel... The only ppl i know with babies are from mums group so when you have your lil one make sure you join one!!! Its doesnt mean your gonna be a bad mum, i fell pregnant unexpectadly too, everything changes for the good when you have your lil one trust me!

Welcome newbees!!!! :wave:

[xlouxloux]

Hey ladies! had a very lazy day today, stayed in my pjs till 230 hehe didnt have lunch till 230 either, just felt too hot to eat. Alyssa has been okay, i think she gets bored cos she just comes to me n starts hitting :no: not hard i think she just knows it annoys me lol glad its the weekend Steven can entertain her for the next 2 days lol
Tomorrow were heading to a 1st birthday party then a 21st birthday bbq so hopefully Alyssa handles it. Apparently she cried out 3 times in the night (i took a sleeping tab so i could get a decent sleep - first time in over a week!) so i duno if shes just too hot or if shes teething?

Mel - yay for ur pamper session being nice! so jealous i wanna massageeee. We will have to get some movies out for tomorrow night, what do u want for dinner?

Meg - thats sweet ur sis wants to spend so much time with ur bub. I wish i had a sis to get along with lol

Morgan - aww no! sorry u had such a shocking day. bad things always come in 3's so u can look forward to their being no more now :) Hope Rohan feels better soon!

Lilahh - im another who didnt plan to fall pregnant. it is really hard and ur life just changes so much its understandable u feel the way u do! try not to feel guilty though and just cos u feel this way now doesnt mean u will be a bad mum :hugs: were all here if u need to talk!

Rainjaa - good on u! i wear a tankini n just try to get in the water quickly lol i dont think id wear a bikini again just cos ive never found a pair that support my boobs :rolleyes:

cec - yes i confess i am absolutly obsessed with the Twilight series, i got the first book read it in about 3 days then went out n bought the other 3 lol seen the movie twice aswell. its just so well written! plus i love vampires!

Gah its too hot! im gunna go sit under the a/c n spray myself with water hehehe

[laylasmumma23]

ello' ello' how are we all on this yucky muggy night? im in a weird mood...so bare with me if i talk waaaaaaaaaaaay 2 much lol

Cec- i always have bubhub and facebook open...im a bit of a poster now..racking up the ol posting numbers thats for sure.
God your brave with the bikini..i made a thread today actually and took a poll of who wears what and tankini's and board shorts was the highest then the one piece then the bikini..and i think it was 3 ppl avoided going swimming altogether.
I think im going to see the movie twilight..layla doesn't sleep long enough for me to get into a book lol..and when she goes to sleep i bubhub..darn addictions LOL

Mel- glad your with me on the tankini and the boardies...when i lose a bit of my mummy muffin top then i might brave the bikini again..but right now...i dont need anyone calling greenpeace on me saying they spotted a beached whale :laughing:
My friend got a toddler bed that converts into a big bed..i think from ikea...i think im going to get one of those save the $$$
glad you enjoyed your pamper sesh..im going to get a haircut soon...dying to get rid of my skunk streaks LOL
Layla bit me the other day just to prove to me her top teeth were cutting..i can see them now..but she hasn't been a sook about them, well no more then usual.

Axelsmummy-glad you had a nice day with your sister..dont stress about axels teeth they will come..my dd didn't start teething till she was 9 months old but showed signs right up to it...
sorry i'll shoosh about teeth now LOL

Lilah- i got pregnant unexpectantly as well and it is a massive life change. It doesn't make you a bad mum:hugs: Being pregnant isn't much fun at all...unless you get one of those 'glowing ones'..which i should have put an order in for lol
but once you hold your little one for the first time...it will all be worth it!.
Friends are hard to come by when you have kids, as the old ones seem to drift away..but bubhub comes in handy for that, mothers groups and playgroups and meets are great as well.
Oh btw im Lauren 24 my dd is Layla she's 13 months..and i talk to much :laughing:

PCP- hey and welcome.. congrats on the pregnancy.

ixnay- aww sounds like you had a cr@p day!.poor rohan hope he feels better soon.
How can you fail swimming?..really? can you fail people on how they swim?..wow thats just sad..i figure if you can doggy paddle and pull yourself to the edge and get out..you can swim! lol..maybe thats all he needs to know.
You do know phones cant swim tho right?..lol dd thought my phone could swim..and decided to test it out in the toilet...NOT HAPPY JAN! lol but its cool i got a new phone..thank god my contract was up lol

Loux-i was in my pj's till 1:30..so you beat me LOL..i had to get dressed so i could wash my pj's..dammit! i did housework today how un exciting..MIL is coming tomorrow, she always makes me feel like i dont look after her precious boy..so i thought i would clean the house from top to bottom..see what she says tomorrow..no doubt she will find something lol
Party Party Party...hope alyssa goes ok for you..
i have a fan in layla's room for when she gets to hot..but then i worry when it gets to cold lol..
stay cool and have a nice sleep!!!!!

rain- your a nut :laughing: but stay that way coz its awesome!:thumbsup: I had to strap on the old baby proofing tool belt recently..just wait till your bubs can walk!!!

AFM- mmmm..f@rk all really to report sadly i have no life lol...i did housework..woot!! played with dd..watched crappy day time tv..actually oprah was pretty good today..talented kids! 6 year old who could breakdance..i wish i could breakdance lol mmm yep thats about it for me..
neways better cruise catch ya lataz..hey to anyone i missed :wave: byes xx

[cecandchels]

damnit! i just lost my reply that i had written. so frustrating.

now i dont have time to do the personals i was writing cause i have to drop my sis off at the airport now.

but we are heading up the coast after all till monday so i hope everyone has a great weekend! i hope the weather in WA finally cools down for u girls!

lilahh - i also had an unplanned pregnancy and none of my friends are any where near having kids either. there is no question that it is hard and the change to our lives is massive, but as the girls have said, there is nothing more rewarding then having ur own little family no matter what kind of family it is. u will get great support here on bubhub and in this thread so hang around! and congrats!

PCP - congrats to u too! and welcome to the best thread on bubhub.

right ive really got to go and get dressed!

talk soon. xo

[Lilahh]

Thanks ladies, that is very kind. Im feeling better today because I started setting up the cot, checking all the newborn clothes I have and making a list of stuff I still need and thinking about planning my baby shower. Phew! I think Im one of those women who needs to be organised to feel sane.

PCP- Congrats! If your still in your first trimester, I hope it goes smoothly and no :barf:!!!

I can't believe how many people have unplanned pregnancies. Does anyone plan them?? :laughing: I feel much better about my accident.

I just read that for setting up your cot you need "recieving blankets" for newborns. Wtf are they? Are they just regular blankets? :confused:

Hi ladies,

Well Rohan is feeling better today, he still says his tummy is a bit funny. But at least he isn't throwing up everywhere.

I haven't done much today, just vacuumed the car out and hung out some washing. Fuuuuuuuun! :laughing: I took a quick drive down to the shop to pick up some stuff and that is about it. Watching Bad Boys atm. :)

Amazingly after a few whacks and drying it out my fone is back to fine working order thank God. As for Rohan's swimming lessons, I don't care that he didn't pass. He can do more things that he couldn't do last year. I will enrol him in swimming again next Summer.

At least he can put his face under the water.....:D Apparently they have interschool swimming this year. I won't hold my breathe as they were supposed to have it last year but it was cancelled because they didn't have enough qualified people to teach the whole school. Figures! :rolleyes:

If the weather is nice tomorrow I will take Rohan down to the beach in town which is really calm and I can sit on the beach and chill and Rohan can do whatever. Practice his belly flop technique!

Did anyone else have a really bad sleeping pattern when they were pregnant???? I just go to the toilet ALOT and it wrecks my sleep and DP. I don't remember going to the toilet this much with Rohan. It drives me nuts! :hair:

I will have even less sleep when the baby is born.

OMG I'm so loving this pram:

http://www.babyzonedirect.com.au/catalogue/c11/c86/c88/p3825

I hope I can convince DP to buy it when we buy a pram which won't be till March or even April! BUM!

[1stTimeMum09]

Hi girls just popping to say hi..I made a mistake about bubs weight it was 3570. Lol. I am typing one handed as I am feeding him. Everything going well.. Will pop back as soon he is asleep..

Thanks for all the congrats to.
Kirsten

[Lilahh]

xlouxloux: what did you sleep bub in for the first 3 months? im planning to put bub in the cot as a newborn.:wave:

[embryonichappyperson]

DP says now way to the price of the pram hahaha! Fair enough!

What do you think of these??? They are new models!

Hey mummas!

Hows everyones weekend been so far? Mine has been boring lol

Lou - Good for you staying in your pjs for most of the day yesterday! Lol so ture about us being so different but so similar at the same time! :yes: Tell stephanie im not happy about this whole Melanie thing lol :p

Lauren - Thats crazy about the results of your poll! I have seen your pic and I doubt that anyone would be calling greenpeace about you lol Ooo when are you going to get your hair cut? Are you a person that likes to spend 80 bux on a haircut or el cheapo? hehe

cec - sucks that you lost your post!! :thumbsdown: I always copy mine b4 I post it just in case I lose it. Where was your sis headed too?

lilahh - I think I might be the only one who actually planned my pregnancies! Both DS and this bub were planned. Everything will work out great tho :) How exciting setting up the nursery! I have never heard of recieving blankets either. Maybe they are another name for blankets you wrap the baby in?

Morgan - Great news about the phone! Im sure Rohan will pass swimming lessons in his own time. I dont think its fair to grade the kids at such a young age. I really like the first pram you posted a link for! I like how it has a reversable handle. Stuff was DP says and just get it. I made the mistake of buying the first pram I saw and I hate it. Ended up using my stroller for most the time. Your DP would have a heart attack if he knew how much I was spending on my new pram. 1000 bux its gonna cost me but I have done my research and this one will be the best for both DS#1 and DS#2 and its not a cr@ppy side by side pram. I hate those!

Kirsten - Good to see you back in here! I gotta ask tho. What was up with your friend Jackies comment on fb? I thought she was being very rude!


AFM - Had a really lazy day and finally built up the motivation to do a lil cleaning. Feel so much better now! Heading over to Lous place tonight for a movie night :smiliedance: DP is going to my SIL's boyfriends bday party and I really couldnt be bothered going as it is a dress up party and it would be too hard for me to find somthing that would fit me, not to mention a babysitter. DP's outfit looks pretty cool tho!

Hope everyone has a great night!!!!

[1stTimeMum09]

Mel-she thinks I am a bad parent because I am not spending time with Ryley and all my time on the net..Not true though he is sleeping I can't hover over him or anything..She thinks I am not bonding well when ah I feed him, change him, burp and talk to him all the time.I am no longer talking to her though she was putting me down so I told I had enough..She isn't a mum because she has been trying for 3 years with no such luck and thinks I shouldn't be so lucky and be a mum..Hope that makes sense. Lol.

Hello to everyone else..I been a bit space out so sorry about not doing personals..Can't believe bubs is 4 days old already. Lol.

Hope you all are going well..

Kirsten

[embryonichappyperson]

Kirsten-I'm sorry your friend was so rude! I saw a couple of her comments in regards to a couple of your *status's* and I thought what the hell? She was pretty rude, I just didn't want to say anything on FB lol.

It's always the people who don't have kids who think they don't know anything. My SIL and her partner have ALWAYS done the same thing to me in regards to Rohan. I just smirk at them now and ignore them. I always ignored them but I always said something. It's just easier if I ignore them because it makes me angry and it makes DP uncomfortable if I go on and on about it. :laughing:

I agree what are you sposed to do while his asleep? Pull up a chair and wait for him to wake up? :rolleyes: Sheesh!

[axelandlexismum]

Hey ladies...

Anyone miss me lol, sorry havent posted lately been heaps busy feel left out after reading everyones posts though hehe... Got a lil head ache err... I joined weight watchers today lol

Kriten- Welcome back... Yeah i agree with mel i thought she was being rude with the stuff she was saying! Well you dont need ppl around you that are going to put you down, how can she say your a bad mum just coz your on the net she doesnt know what its like having a baby!!! I wish i had the net when Axel was first born lol... It sounds like your doing a excellent job with Riley... :wave:

Mel- Hello... Hows things? lol, totally agree with you bout Kristens friend rude of her!!! How has Seth been with his new tooth? Still none on Axel lil gummies lol, hows your bump? My wk/end hasnt been too bad so far, meet up with my 3 step sisters for the first time in years it was great so buggered now lol... Hows your wk/end been?

Ixnay- Hey.. Glad to hear Rohan is feeling better, and well done to him on the swimming hopefully they do swimming at his school so it can help him out a bit more! Yeah i remember the horrible sleeping paterns of being preggas, up and down to the toliet, could only sleep on one side coz if i moved to the other side i got kicked in the ribs lol and he would roll around.... I thought that was the time when you can sleep but you cant lol...:(

Lilahh- I have never heard of them either, when Axel was born i just used to wrap him and put him in his bassanet with a blanket, when he went in his cot he would wear a sleeping bag and have a blanket... The sleeping bags are great he still wears one when its a lil cold coz he wriggles up the cot so at least i know he is still warm!

Well thats enough blabbering lol... Sorry to everyone i forgot!!!! Hope to talk soon

Hi ladies, god I am so slack I haven't been on here in ages.

I see that congrats are inorder for Kirsten on the safe delivery of Ryley David. Hope everything went well with the delivery etc. Must be enjoying having a little bub around the place.

ATM Gizaiah is crashed out, so Im having a glass of wine. Really enjoying it. Only just started on the alcoholic beverages last week. Not a bad drop haha.....

Gizaiah is turning one in 39 days I cant believe it. My cousin Gizaiahs godmother did up his invitations which are like carnival tickets and they are super cool. Everything is all planned and coming along nicely. We're having a big carnival for his birthday with games,prizes,fortune tellers,balloon king entertainers, clowns etc. We're doing 3 cakes. A merry go round cake to go with the theme, my sister is making a 3 tier cake and I ordered a caramel mud cake with the edible image icing for the top. The image Im using is my 4D scan pic. Some people might think thats a little creepy, but that was the day that it hit home for me I was finally having a baby and it was a boy.

So yeah, so far so good.

Quick question lady where abouts can I get a bday banner made up. Wanting to get Happy Birthday Baby Boy and I want pictures of him amoungst the banner if not photos of him as the letter, Any info would be great

By the way mummy7 Gizaiah got his first tooth on xmas day and then the second tooth a couple of days later. Now we are back to 12hr sleeps. Ahhhhh gotta love it I feel great.

Started my weightloss journey today Had 1st personal trainning session today it was really good. Hopibg to get in for 5 sessions a wk, but I will keep yous posted about that.

Hope everyone is having a great night

[embryonichappyperson]

Hi all,

I hope everyone had a good weekend!

Kirsten- How are you and bubs going? How is breastfeeding going? I'm always interested in breastfeeding cause I want it to work for me this time. :laughing:

Rohan is going out this arvo so I will get some peace for a couple of hours.

Jayson finishes work tonight so he will have the next 3 weeks off.

I'm getting a trim tomorrow thank God! My fringe really needs to be thinned out! I'm getting my eyebrows waxed too lol.

I think my bump has gotten bigger and I seem to be carrying really low at this point lol. Weird!

I'm starting to wonder what the baby will look like, if he or she will look like Rohan or come out with a shock of black hair like me and end up with my brown eyes. How funny would that be! Or come out like Rohan with Jayson's familys trademark ruby red hair and his hazel eyes. Interesting!

It's pretty muggy and sticky today! Bleh!:dizzy:

[axelandlexismum]

Evening all...

We i actually went to work today, shock i know lol got back from picking Axel up from my mums and i was buggered lol....

Axels lil teeth (that still havent made an appearance) are playing up on him again the last day and a bit, poor lil man!!! :(

Well i cant be bothered writing personals tonight, im sure you all dont mind hehe, except one sorry...

Ixnay- im sure your bump looks great, and no matter what you lil baby looks like im sure it will be cute.... Hope you enjoyed your few hours of peace today? :)


Well il check back in tomorrow have a good one!

:babydust2:DS-6mths:babydust2:

[cecandchels]

well i got thru reading all the posts i missed, i feel so left behind if i dont catch up.

kirsten - welcome home (i know its a bit late). ur bubba is so cute. making me all clucky again so i might have to aviod ir facebook page for a while :laughing: i hope he is sleeping better, but dont worry it does get better. chels didnt follow human time either when she was first born. stayed up all night, but we slept in till midday so it was never too bad. hope it doesnt freak u out but we did that till she was about 6 months and suddenly she just changed. now she is an angel and goes to sleep at 8 and wakes around 8 in the morn.

morgan - i liked the ion pram? or something like that, i would recommend getting a pram with one handle. mine has two handles (does that make sense) and its impossible to push one handed which i have found to be a tad annoying. and im sure ur baby will be beautiful. is ur scan next week?

lou and lauren - i think u might have to teach me ur loser handshake cause i confess im the same as u.

lou - i finished twilight the other night, oh my god did the gayness annoy u in the end? i was annoyed. when she fainted when they kissed? and when he licked her tears? pass the bucket. on the other hand, i still loved it and im going to see it with my sis this week, then i will start the 2nd one.

mummy7 - thats awesome about yoga, my bro does it and he loves it. id love to do it too but it turns out im too lazy. however my gym membership is about to start again (after being on hold for about a year) so hopefully ill get all motivated soon.

megan - good luck with weight watchers. my friend works in marketing and she loves it. i think its a really good program. hows axels teeth going?

mel - my sis was flying to the sunshine coast to meet my mum and dad up there for a couple of days. poo heads. but not like i can complain, ive been doing my fair share of holidaying lately. hope they come back soon tho, i love hanging with my ma and my sis.

AFM - the coast was really nice. so relaxing and although we are all so tired, i think we are all refreshed. well its good to be home. now i might go get ready for bed. night girlies!

[mixi_mama]

Hi everyone. Well let me just say that Im writing this at like 3:30am in the morning. Just randomly woke up and thought.. wow I fell asleep and forgot to post haha.

So.....

cecandchels- Glad you had a great time at the coast. You never realise how calm and soothing it can be!
axelsmummy - Aw hun, sorry to hear that Axel is teething. Hopefully they'll break gum soon for him :hugs:
ixnay - Ah go pamper yourself girl! Getting your hair done (even just a trim) can sometimes feel so normal but I remember when I was pregnant with Teina it felt like I spoiled myself and was so much fun lol. If you can try to post a pic - would love to see it! Im sure your baby is going to be stunning too :thumbsup:
mummy7 Hope all goes well with the yoga!! All the best for that :smiliedance:

Yeah I like all of them all! Not so sold on the 3 wheeler factor. I found them to be a tad unstable. I was looking at the Steelcraft Strider yesterday which I always found to be a rather cumbersome looking pram and I watched a 2 min vid the site had about the pram. I think I'm sold on that pram as well now. Those reversible seat prams you usually have to take the seat out then collapse the base to put it in the car. But with the Strider you can collapse the pram with the seat still attached. I was like ooo big selling point right there! :laughing:

We aren't buying a pram till April anyways, so I have plenty of time to keep looking. But I have the Strider at the top of my list now.

Ok a pram with 2 handles? Never seen that before!

My scan is next Thur, we are leaving for Perth on Tue.

Yeah I will enjoy getting a trim my hair is getting a bit wild now lol.

I think I will have another goodlooking kid hehe. Rohan came out looking pretty cute and still is. At least he doesn't look like me hahaha.

[1stTimeMum09]

BOO :laughing:

:wave: everyone

Ixnay-I hope your scan will go well for you next week and have you decided on a pram yet? I do have to say your pregnancy seems to be going quick..

Mummy7-I am enjoying motherhood its tiring but worth it. Yeah I got rid of her she was a bit of a nutty shame though we knew each other for 11 years. How the yoga coming along?

mixi-mama-happybirthdayto Teina :)

CecandChels-thanks love. Hehe..Yes I am a bit camera happy at the moment. Lol.

axelsmummy-I had to laugh at Axel and the blinds. Lol. Hope he is feeling better..

:wave:to everyone else I missed.

AFM-well now that I am mummy I can share this tidbit I was breastfeeding until yesterday as my milk come and man do my BB's hurt and it was so hard BF Ryley I even ended up in tears because of it.

So now I am expressing BF and formula feeding Ryley and I must say we are both much happier and he took to the bottle quite well and he now has the dummy and it makes life easier for me because he has one hell of a suck. Lol. Can't believe he is a week old today. He wouldn't sleep much last night but I guess that's cos of the new stuff he is having but he is sleeping peacefully now..

Well I hope you all are well..
Kirsten

[mummy7]

Morgan - I had the 4 wheel steelctraft strider and found it was a piece of ****. Heavy and too oversized. the back wheel span was so wide.. could not get it into my hotel room when I went to melb lol. The tyres were also **** and got little rip marks on them just from going on a bit of gravel and the back breaks stuffed up after using it 3 times... just wanted to let you know. I only used it a dozen times and it caused me grief... ended up getting a trusty maclaren and have not looked bk. Go Valco over steelcraft I think :rolleyes:
Kirsten - U poor thing.. I cried and cried when my milk was coming in and I was bf Xavier.. it was so. painfull!!!!! Makes ur eyes water from the pain. r u putting cabbage leaves in ur bra?? My oh my I loved cabbage leaves when I was in a world of pain.. lol... glamour hey lol. Glad he is a good bub and took so well to the bottle. i had to give Xav a dummy when he was a newborn too as he was such a sucky baby... needed to give my poor boobs a rest from time to time lol. Yoga is going well. did it today as well.. so that is 2 days on the yoga train now.. just have to keep it up lol.

[1stTimeMum09]

mummy7-ohh good idea I forgot about cabbage leaves. Thanks :)

[embryonichappyperson]

Yeah I saw a mum with a strider at the op shop today after I got my hair cut and I asked her if I could check it out as I was interested in one.

After closer inspection I decided stuff that! I ain't buying one! Well there is a Valco one I really really like, this one:http://www.babyzonedirect.com.au/catalogue/c11/c86/c88/p3825

It's exy and I showed Jayson and he said it's to expensive, but he gets a bonus in April and I'm going to work on him to buy it lol. I mean OMG I love the look of this one and its a reversible seat.

On my current list is these 2 and that is it:
http://www.babyzonedirect.com.au/catalogue/c11/c86/c320/p2596

http://www.pramwarehouse.com.au/product.asp?pID=15768&cID=186

Kirsten- Yeah my pregnancy is going pretty quickly! Sorry yab (. )( .) hurt lolz :laughing:

I bought a chair from the op shop for feeding the baby at night in the baby room. It's *retro* lol, but a chair is a chair. I can always turf it when I have finished with it! I bought it for $30, I'm going to buy a big throw rug for it.

I also bought a outlook shade thing for a pram for $4. Bargain.

Hey girlies, how are we all? its 41 in adelaide today...if you've read my facebook i'm conducting an experiment and cooking an egg on my concrete! lol so far its cooking quite nicely! LOL
I'll post piccies on FB later. arr the bordem..

Ixnay- I dont like the 3 wheelers personally..but god it was a pain in the **** to find a 4 wheeler..they guy that was trying to sell me a 3 wheeler was saying "aww it will help you to lose your baby weight after..".i replied "im sorry, but you push a watermelon out of your pee hole and then see if you feel like going for a jog!"..:laughing:..what an A hole!!
Enjoy your pamper..im getting my haircut on friday..i cant wait!
You still convinced your having a boy?..
i remember thinking about what layla would look like..and then when she was born..she looked exactly like me when i was a baby!
Rohan is a cutie so your new bubs will be to.
With your chair you could always get it re covered?
Nice bargain hunting on your behalf lol

Mixi_Mama-:flowerz:Happy 3rd B'day to Teina:flowerz:
hope you both have a great day

Axelsmummy-Im going swimming tonight at my parents place..woo hoo!!
Has Axel been swimming before?
awww thats so cute about axel's rolling..soon he'll be crawling...thats the fun stage lol
Hope he gets his teeth soon..although..layla has been teething for the last 4 months..thankfully she's not a grumble bum the whole time.

Mummy7-awwwwww totally love struck, thats great! glad you feel comfy enough with him to let your guard down.
enjoy your swim..i know i will.
I did yoga for a lil while...but there were 2 "older" women in there..that were a lil 2 relaxed for me LMAO!!..
I heard about the cabbage leaf thing...but i thought was to dry out your milk if you weren't going to bf?..:confused:

Kirsten-wow i cant believe Ryley is one week old..seems like just the other day you were telling us how you were waddling around lol
So are you just going to formula feed now?
Cabbage leaves will dry up your milk..i think..i could be wrong..but my friend who just had twins is using them because she doesn't want to breast feed.
I found my let downs to be the most painful..but heat packs and ice packs are magic!
Make sure you empty your boobs when you express otherwise you may get mastitis..and that HURTS!!
welcome to the world of pamela anderson boobs! LOL

Cec-glad you had a nice holiday! you seem to be jetting off everywhere lately lol..
Sif your a loser Cec..awww you can join the club to then :hugs:

Mel & lou partners in crime :wave: hope your not getting up to too much trouble! lol


AFM-its sooooo hot..(as mentioned in intro)..i wonder how my egg is cooking..lol im staying home in the air con today, later im going to my parents place..they have a pool..i just bought dd some new bathers..huge butt is a size 1 now lol
anways i hope my babbling makes sense...catch all you spunky mumma's later xx

[embryonichappyperson]

laylasmumma23- Personally I prefer 4 wheelers. So all the prams I put up in my last post are 4 wheelers I'm interested in.

As for the chair to much hassle to get it recovered and no one does that here. :rolleyes: I found a throw rug on DealsDirect.com for $14.95 that will go nicely with the chair and the decor of the room. So I will buy that on Fri. I'm broke now haha! I'm also going to buy some more of those wall stickers as one wall is empty.

I dunno if I feel like I'm going to have a boy or not. I keep thinking about it and I keep coming up with a girl. Haha!

Omg look what I bought at the opshop for $8! Its a like a warm sleeping bag for a baby, it has a zip on the side and the hood on the top can be unzipped to lay it flat. I'm going to use it in the pram cause it will be

[cecandchels]

hey hey.

kirsten - im pretty sure u use cabbage leaves to help with the pain, not to stop breastfeeding (sorry lauren, but i think ur friend is misinformed :confused:). something to do with osmosis or something? however the lactation consultant told me that ice is just as good but i think if cabbage leaves works go for it! do u have a lacatation consultant or can u get in contact with one? if not call the breastfeeding association hotline and they can help u out. if ur doing half feeds with formula u should be expressing the rest to keep up ur supply. breastfeeding does hurt when ur milk is coming in but it gets better, then u wont be able to feel it at all. so persevere. sorry if i seem a bit intense about this, i want to be a midwife and in the future a lactation consultant. do get support from who ever u can, but if its stressing u out more then u can handle u will know whats best for ur baby and u! so dont feel bad about the choices u make, a calm mother is better then a stressed one IYKWIM.

morgan - hmm, yeah i thought two handles didnt make sense. well, there is a gap in the middle and a handle for each hand, does that make more sense? im confusing myself now! i like fourwheelers too. mine is a peg pereggo which i think are pretty good prams (aopparently).

lauren - i have been quite the jet-setter. now im really ready to chill at home. hope ur swim was good. im thinking of heading to my mums for a swim this week too. spose to be 38 tomorrow. ew.

rani - u have inspired me to get back to the gym. they do yoga classes there, and whats more there is a free childcare too. see how long this excitment lasts tho :laughing:

megan - i know u have probs already said this somewhere, but when is the wedding? and where and etc??

mixi_mumma - happybirthdayteina!! hope she had a great day and ur day at work wasnt too long. good luck with the partay it sounds so fun!

AFM - just cleaned and caught up with some friends today. nothing to exciting. chels was a nightmare tho, something was weird with her, im pretty sure it is her top 1yr old molars coming thru. she woke up hell early and didnt go back to sleep, so she was tired and grumpy all day and fell asleep at 5 pm, then i had to wake her for dinner. she hardly ate much also, is that normal when they are teething? she is asleep now tho, and hopefully going to stay that way for a long time. going to buy a fan tomorrow from bunnings cause her room gets so hot. poor lass.

xo

[axelandlexismum]

[embryonichappyperson]

cec- Ya I get what you mean now. :laughing: Some of the new Pegs look a bit like a wheel chair lol. But I like the old style.

mummy- Yeah the Valco looks good, just gotta get Jayson to buy it for me! That's the thing! ;)

axel's- Ya I have found 3 prams I like, just gotta wait till April. Jayson and I will decide which one to buy. Jayson is getting a bonus in his April pay, so mebbe I will be able to win him over on the Valco one lol.

AFM I went out with Jayson and Rohan and we took Rohan to the park. Then we went and had a ice cream and went to the shop and went home. Jayson is trying to get some computer thing of his to work, again. It's a pretty lazy day!

[1stTimeMum09]

:wave: girls.

Mummy7-Haven't try the cabbage leaves as yet dad forgot to buy them from the supermarket. Lol. He is going okay more about him in a sec..Thanks I think they all look cute when they are sleeping :laughing: Glad yoga going well..

Ixnay-your very funny. So what pram are you going to use :p

laylamummy-thanks for the tip..I think cabbage leaves just lets them not dry them up but thank you anyway. Yeah I feel relieve when I express that's for sure. Lol. I saw your pics of you egg experiment :laughing: Bored were we? Lol. I prefer 4 wheelers as well..

cecandchels-don't think I can try breastfeeding I think both of us are happier with the bottle..Hope Chels feels better soon.

axelsmummy-i am so glad the cool change has come I even went for a walk with Ryley to get some fresh air..Glad you had a good day..

AFM-well had a really restless night because it was so hot and Ryley was constipated so we gave him some water and at 5am he did a poo and we both were relieve. Lol. Better go someone needs a nappy change :laughing:

Kirsten

[cecandchels]

megan - sorry i shorten all my words, i meant "u have probably..." not that u had problems :laughing:

[mummy7]

Morning gals!!!
Wow.. what a lovely cool change there is today. It was 34 yesterday and today its forecast for 21.... I love the heat but when the weather gradually becomes summer not.... one day its 18 the nxt day 34 or whatever.. that is just cruel. Feel sorry for you gals though.. I have nothing to complain about here in lil Tas really lol.
We had a great day yesterday at the pool. Xavier had fun befriending other babies and I just did the mum thing (chatting about all things baby to all the other mums lol).. Last night Xav slept luckily but the heat def bothered him.. poor lil man. He was so grumpy this morn that he had a bottle and breaky and went straight bk to bed..
Well today we r going in2 the city to do a cpl of things, catching up w a mate for lunch b4 he goes overseas and then catching up w a galfriend for yaga tonight yay.. happy days.
And finally just a lil rant.. sometimes I wish I had friends w bubs... all my friends r beautiful but I just wish we could relate to one another more... all I want to talk about is Xav and his milestones and funny quirks etc.. I love hearig their stories so much.. but hmmm.. i wish they would hurry up and have bubs lol. Sometimes when I am catching up w them I know I am not 100% there w them coz I always have such a focus on Xav at the same time as you do and I know they dont understand.. if that makes sense... whatevs lol. Thank goodness for bubhub hey.
Hope every1 has a gd day :flowerz:

[axelandlexismum]

Morning all...

Well thank god its not hot here today in melbourne lol i cant stand the heat anymore lol... So annoyed one of the babies at mums group got her first tooth yesterday with out any fuss err, and i put up with grumpy bubs lol oh well one day....

Cec-Hey thats ok lol wasnt quite sure what you meant lol, im sure you dont think i have problems :laughing: hope your having a good day!

Mummy7-Glad Xavier had a great day swimming! I know exactly how you feel none of my friends have babies and half the time i dont wanna catch up with them coz they all talk bout going out getting drunk and all i have to talk bout is babies lol, glad i have my friends from mums group though lol...

Kristen-How good is this weather today? Its nice and cool lol hope you and Riley enjoyed your walk yesterday, hopefully you had a good night last night?

Ixnay-Glad you have kinda found a pram lol hopefully you get the one you want in april hehe

We im gonna head off have some brekky lol... Speak soon xxx

[laylasmumma23]

Howdy ladies ..how are we all?

Ixnay-hows your pram hunting? u finally decided on one? you have time you know..are you nesting already LOL
aww i luv the sleeping bag..so cute! and a bargain!!
I have those wall stickers as well in layla's room i love em!! we are renting so i couldnt do anything fancy, so i got a whole heap of those wall stickers.
Have you chosen a theme for your bubby's room? or you waiting to find out what your having?
My bets on a girl ..go team taco!!! LOL

Kirsten-lol yeah just a little bit bored :laughing: but it was cool to see the egg cooking!..
Me and Cec had a discussion and cabbage leaves work both ways..pro longed use can dry up your milk and short term use is good for engorment ..but since your switching to formula it doesn't matter now..good on you for trying :hugs:
Strange how he got constipated on a liquid diet..:confused: babies can go days without doing #2's their digestive systems are slower then ours. Just make sure he's hydrated in the hot weather.
Sorry..wow i sound like im lecturing you...dont listen to me LOL...bad Lauren..lol

Axelsmummy-glad its cooled off where you are, we had a nice day as well it was 27! arr bliss.
aww thats so cute about axel sleeping through his first swim..so did layla..she was so relaxed..she even snored LOL
dw to much about his teeth, they will come..layla got her first one at 9 months and her second at 10..she's 13 months almost 14 and is just cutting her top teeth..i will miss that gummy smile lol..

Cec-:hugs:
i hope chels feels better. Layla goes off her food when she's teething as well so yeah its normal. I tend to try and numb her gums before she has a bottle so she will at least drink that and stick with soft foods.

Mummy7- i agree with you about the weather..its like a yo yo...its 41 one day...27 the next...to tan or not to tan LOL...i think its safe to say i can skip it this year!! Maybe Feb will be ultra hot and summerish!
Glad Xav had fun at the pool..layla is a water baby to, its hard enough to get her out the bath..lol
Im the same as you on the friend front, but thats what bubhub is for lol..
I have one friend who has a 2 year old..and we always chat about our kiddies..and they understand better that you cant make certain things because bubs needs a nap..and so on...lol
I go to mummy's meets and things alot and im thinking about playgroup..i got put off because of the "clickyness" playgroup mums have..and being a young mum amoungst 30 yr old mums is a little strange.
*clings to the 20 something's* LOL

Hey to anyone i missed *wave*
AFM- Im getting my haircut 2morrow :smiliedance: and then going shopping ALONE!!...i cant f'n wait!! lol my dp's mum is babysitting so i can take my sweet time :) I haven't been up to anything exciting its been to hot to do anything..i got some new fish today for my tank (will post the piccies later on fb)..umm dd slept most of the day after her mucking around last night..she was up till 11:30 lil ratbag! lol mmm yeah boring as..anways catch ya lataz xx

[mummy7]

Lauren - I started going to a mums group but then I moved cities when Xav was 6 months old. Started going to a playgroup but I agree w you about the click and I def feel out of place being 24 amongst all the 30 something mums. I felt really uncomfortable so I have not been again. I know a cpl of ppl who have kidlets but they live in my old home town and the ones who live here I am not really close to. Whinge whinge.... its all gd lol.....usually doesnt bother me at all but has just been niggling at me these last cpl of days I guess.
Have a great day today pampering!!!! Yay!!! Awesome about your fish. What sort of fish do you have?? I love fish, used to have tropical fish. I dont care what anyone says fish def have personalities. I would love to get fish again one day... marine next time I think. So... pretty... then I can get a dory all of my own... hmmm...

[cecandchels]

goodmorning girls.

rani - none of my friends have babies either so i def feel ur pain. i just feel like im a totally place, it seems sometimes all they care about is going out and bla bla, plus nearly all of them are heading to europe this year so i think it will be interesting for us. i catch up with a few girls from my old school around my age, one of them had been to a playgroup and like you guys was really put off by the clickiness and the oldness of other mums, no offence to them.

lauren - oo have fun shopping today. im also heading to the shops with my sis, but no baby! mum is looking after her while we go to the movies. what are u going to be buying? and what are u doing with ur hair?

megan - chels didnt get teeth till she was about 9 months either and it was her bottom two that came up first and they were crooked, i was freaking out. but the rest of them are fine and they will fall out in the end. now she looks like she has shark teeth they are popping up everywhere.

well i hope everyone in WA survives today, i just heard on the news its going to be 40! i nearly died yesterday it was so hot, think it was about 40 too. hopefully it is a bit cooler today.

AFM - as i said im going to the movies with my sis to see twilight, she has been waiting for me to finish it so we could see it together. she is so cute. well i might go try to put chels down for a nap - fingers crossed!

i hope everyone has a good day!

[axelandlexismum]

Good morning girls...

Well i must say its great in melbourne today its meant to rain lol thank god hehe...
Im feeling really good today, was sorting things out with a friend of mine that had been cracking it with me and being a *****, i explained that i had PND (not sure if you all knew that) and she appologised for treating me so bad the last couple of weeks...Thought if i told her she wouldnt be there for me... How wrong i was!


Laylamummmy-Yeah it was cute when he slept in the pool lol, im not going to worry about teeth anymore they will come up when they are ready... Then it will be more exciting lol... Il miss his gummy smile to lol...

Cec- Teeth over it lol they will come when they are ready! Im sure her teeth are fine and like you said they fall out anyway! hope you have a good day?

Kristen- Hows Riley? Its true what lauren said its ok for them not to do number 2's for a couple of days, just make sure you get him used to water when its hot... Hopefully you enjoy today better its gonna rain lol yay! :smiliedance:

Mel- Where have you gone?? Hopefully you check in soon lol and tell us how you are!!!


Well thats all for now, sorry bout my lil confession before hope you all dont mind? Off to have brekky yummy lol

[FertileMertile]

Hey Mummas! :wave:

Sorry I have been MIA lately! I would love to say there was an excuse for it but it was just sheer laziness :o

Ixnay - Hows the pram hunting going? Its such a HUGE decision to make so its worth while starting to look now. I still havent decided which one I want yet. Makes it harder when you have 2 babies to consider.

Kirsten - I hope Ryley is settling in nicely! I think BF is alot harder than it looks. I saw a lactation specialist and she told me that if it hurts when they latch on they arent 'attaching' themselves properly. She showed me how to do it and it didnt hurt at all (even WITH bleeding nipples) Unfortunately my milk didnt come through properly so I couldnt continue to BF. I also found a nipple sheild and lanolin cream worked really well.

Rani - I know what you mean about ppl without kids not understanding. DP's sisters are like that. They drive me bloody nuts. They think im being a cow coz I dont always want to goto their parties and cant understand that its a hassle to get a babysitter and especially being preg!

Meg - Im here im here lol sux about that bub at mothers group getting a tooth b4 Axel. Teething is heriditary tho. So if you or DF were late teethers Axel will be also!

Lauren - How nice going shopping by yourself today! It feels so weird not pushing a pram around tho. Have fun getting your 'skunk streaks' cut out lol

Cec - Enjoy seeing twilight. I wouldnt mind seeing it but I havent read the book lol

AFM - Not much happening here. Me and Lou took the kids to the zoo on Wed and my god I was so exhausted after walking around. I feel so unfit lol. We also let the kids out of their prams for a lil run around and Seth took off without hesitaion. It was quite tiring running after him but I knew he had a ball. Didnt seem that interested in the animals, was more interested in the grass/plants/dirt in front of him :rolleyes: Went shopping yesterday and bought a new pumpkin patch outfit for bubs and put a couple things on layby. Also bought a gorgeous cot quilt set for bubs. I didnt get one for Seth and figured he is getting majority of his things second hand so want to get him a few new things. I have decided to paint his room baby blue and I think it will go well with his new bedding.

Heres the bedding set

Hey to anyone I may have missed! :wave:

[1stTimeMum09]

Hello lovelies

Mel-your alive :laughing: Yeah I was crying every time he was doing and couldn't handle it so I gave it up and now he is on formula..Don't worry I only come on when I get a chance cos when Ryley is sleeping I either sleep on here or doing bottles. Lol.

laylasmummy-nah that's okay..I been giving him water in between feeds and plus I went from BF to formula it taken awhile so he get use to it and thanks I glad I did for awhile.
axelsmummy-Ryley doing really well and giving him plenty of water when he wakes in between feeds..And yay for cooler weather :yes:

Cabbage leaves-I forgot to get some :laughing: I am just going to let them go and they dry up on there own.

:wave: to everyone else..

AFM-well I no longer expressing as it made me so tired so now he is on formula and he is much happier and sleeping better as well and giving him some water of course. Midwife came today and weight him he went from on Tuesday 3540 grams and now weights 3610 grams and midwife can see I am much happier mummy and going to have MCHN come out next week. Got a appointment on Thursday at Centrelink about payments and stuff. Should be fun. Lol.

Well hope you all are well
Kirsten

[embryonichappyperson]

Ixnay-hows your pram hunting? u finally decided on one? you have time you know..are you nesting already LOL
aww i luv the sleeping bag..so cute! and a bargain!!
I have those wall stickers as well in layla's room i love em!! we are renting so i couldnt do anything fancy, so i got a whole heap of those wall stickers.
Have you chosen a theme for your bubby's room? or you waiting to find out what your having?
My bets on a girl ..go team taco!!! LOL


I have time?! Omg really? lol Nah I didn't know that! :cool: Yes I know I have time :P but I can still look for prams and I'm getting one in April so it's not that long. ;):p My SIL said to me last night over the fone that she will put money towards it. Score! I didn't have to ask! Haha!

Ummm well I don't really have a theme, I just got some jungle baby animals wall stickers off ebay. Very cute! I will post pics when the room is done. I did buy a jungle animals mobile too to keep with the stickers. I'm trying to stick with nice brown furniture and colours to go with it. I'm going to try and find a green lamp and a green rug for the floor. I will have a look at IKEA when we go to buy draws and a chest for blankets etc next week.

We rent too, so there is not much I can do with the room. So stickers will have to do!

Well a week to go till I find out what I'm having. Could be a girl! I will let you all know when I get back from Perth.

We went to the beach today, the weather is perfect and so clear. The water was really nice! I'm effin tired now from floating around lol. I will try and sneak onto the computer at my SIL house next week and post what the sex is. Taco or sausage!

The town has it's annual Jan markets on tomorrow, so that shall be good! Maybe pick up a bargain! :D

[laylasmumma23]

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey Ladies..
How are we all this fine evening?..Im absolutely postively happylicious LOL..(yeah i know its not a word!!)

Mummy7- I have marine fish.. heaps of piccies on my facebook! i even had a blue tang which is a Dory and a nemo..i even have a starfish .
They do have personalities..i have a tomato clown who is sooo shy and will only come out for me and my puffer fish is sooo stupid he plays with his reflection :laughing:..Marines are awesome but cost alot of $$$ to set up and the fish alone are a small fortune..my Yellow tang was $165..you will literally be flushing money! lol

Cec-It was so weird going shopping on my own, i didn't have dp with me either..i was all alone! it was great...i could go to the clothes shops that dp hates lol..i didn't buy anything exciting..my hair cut was $120..eep!.i love it tho .. How was your day out? what movie did you see? i wanna see marley and me but i've been told its really sad..and im a big sook, i guess thats why they invented water proof mascara lol

Axelsmummy- awww :hugs: i didn't get pnd but my friend had it really bad..i was her support system for ages..dont be afraid to talk about it on here :) your friend will come around, she probably just doesn't understand what your going through.
Is Axel one of those babies that will fall asleep any where?..i wish layla was..she has never fallen asleep in the pram, the car she does...but she has never just crashed from playing or anything like mel's bubby seth! classic piccies mel! lol
The more you want his teeth to come, the longer it will take lol..so just wait patient..he might surprise you one morning lol

Mel-Lol @ Seth at the Zoo..i can see layla doing the same thing tho, being more interested in the dirt or the ants lol..i haven't taken her yet for that exact reason..going to wait till she can make the animals sounds a bit better..so far she can quack, rah and buk buk..lol..
That cot quilt set is sooo cute...definately look good with the baby blue room.
Do you need to get much stuff for the new bubs?

Kirsten-Thats great about Ryley gaining weight :) glad he likes his formula and he got a good report from the middies .
Good luck with centrelink, they always seem to buggar up my payments..grrr!! I dont know how ppl can be on centrelink for so long..there its waaaaaay 2 much paperwork lol
I had to go to the doctors to get a certificate to prove i was pregnant to get my newstart..like cmon..nah i just like looking this fat! LOL

Ixnay-LOL you sarcastic buggar!! :P
Thats great about ur SIL chippin in for your pram, my MIL paid for mine..because its her first grandchild..oo yeah! score! lol
Ooo a jungle theme i was going to do that if layla was a boy..she has flowers and butterflies..the oh so very girly room!
Have fun shopping tomorrow, hope there are lots of bargains for you.

AFM-thanks for all the compliments on my hair :o i love it, feel so much better now, no more mummy hair lol..Cec you should definately get your hair done to!
Have a pretty quiet weekend planned which is nice, might see what bargains i can grab at target, or see whats left i should say!
Its going to be a hot week in adelaide, so swimming is a must!!

Ixnay-can't wait to hear what you are having. Now I wonder if you have a pram before the baby comes :laughing: Kidding ;)

:wave: to everyone else..

AFM-not much happening just staying at home and being a mum and Ryley is sleeping at the moment in his rocker in his new white Bonds wondersuit. They are a god send I must say :yes:

Well hope you all are well..

Ixnay-can't wait to hear what you are having. Now I wonder if you have a pram before the baby comes :laughing: Kidding ;)
Of course I will have a pram before the baby comes. :confused:


Ixnay-LOL you sarcastic buggar!! :P
Thats great about ur SIL chippin in for your pram, my MIL paid for mine..because its her first grandchild..oo yeah! score! lol
Ooo a jungle theme i was going to do that if layla was a boy..she has flowers and butterflies..the oh so very girly room!
Have fun shopping tomorrow, hope there are lots of bargains for you.
The great thing about the jungle stickers I have is that they are for boy or girl. There are a couple of butterflies but if it isn't a girl I will just peel them off the wall lol.

Here are some pics so far of the room including jungle baby stickers lol.

Laylasmummy-Yeah we areforgetting about bloddy teeth lol, they will come! Thanks il try not to talk bout PND on here dont wanna annoy anyone or dont want ppl to think im a sook or anything lol.. Axel used to fall asleep anywhere now he is a lil picky lol but still pretty good cant complain!

Ax- We are renting too, but as long as the stickers come off then it's all good. I need to buy more for the last wall sometime.

I should have my room finished by the end of the month. Jayson is going to put together the draws and chest when we get back from Perth. I will hopefully pick up a rug from IKEA at the same time and a throw rug for the chair.

[Bex]

Hey guys thanks for the welcome-

I pre warn you im a terrible poster I have 3 3 and under and work for avon and penny miller. Oh and DH works 4 on 4 of and so I quite often disapear for 4 days at a time lol.

[cecandchels]

good morning ladies.

bex - welcome to the thread. what does ur dh do to have such long weekends?

megan - dont feel like u cant talk about pnd in here. i think ur so brave in telling us in the first place. u should be proud of urself :hugs: i hope ur friend comes around.

morgan - the stickers look so cute. i have girly stickers on chels wall cause we are renting too. such a good idea.

lauren - i saw twilight with my sis, then saw our cousin and had coffee with her. was really nice. so easy to go the the shops when u dont have a pram to push around. im def getting my hair cut, i got a voucher for a place for chrissy so ill use it this week if i can con someone in to baby sitting for me.

afm - i went out last night for one of the girl's birthday dinner. it was so fun, and good to see them all again cause it had been a while. i drove in so i could get home early (rant warning) because dp made me feel kind of guilty for going out and asking him to babysit, even tho it is his work party on monday and ill be at home alone, and that is why he offered to babysit last night. so then he asked a friend of his over to play ps3, which was fine, then i didnt really rush home. when i did get home, around 12.30, they were a bit tipsy and decided they would go to the local pub to play pool for an hour and i went to bed. anyways, so when i woke up in the morning at 6am he wasnt home. of course i tried calling him but he didnt pick up, so i was a bit worried. i tried to sleep for a bit more and ended up getting up at 8 and totally freaking out, cause told me he was only going for an hour. fawstforward to 9 o'clock and im about to start ringing hospitals and i try him once more and this time he picks up. he just went back to his friends house after the pub.
he ALWAYS does this. goes out and never lets me know when or if he is coming home. i hardly ever go out, and when i do i hardly ever drink cause i feel like i have to get back. he doesnt seem to give two sh*ts and im so over it. i know he feels bad and always says sorry but he continues to do the same thing and its just not fair!!! i think he should just grow up.

sorry for that. i cant even complain to my friends cause they dont really understand and if i try to tell mum she would get annoyed at him and i dont want that. so u guys have to bear it. i think i might go out when he comes home...

[mummy7]

Cec :hugs: :hugs: :hugs: U poor thing. That sux. You must of been so worried! Let out your frustration etc.. here coz we are all here 4 you. Exciting about getting your hair done! What are you going to get done?? How was twilight the movie? I am charging through the book and loving it.
Morgan - I love those stickers.. so cute. I have stickers in bubs room.. they r such a great idea. The nursery looks like it will be lovely. You certainly did well w your bargain chair. Perfect for the nursery indeed.. nice and comfy for feeding and all that jazz. Exciting about your scan... I am voting boy but I hope you get your lil gal.
Megan - congrats w ww. That is excellent. And I agree w cec about pnd. :hugs:
Kirsten - Glad to hear everything is going well w the lil man. I love bonds as well!!! Xavier looks like a real life bonds ad... he lives in the brand. The clothing is so cute and quality stuff. I love it!!! Bonds and pumpkin patch are my choice def.
Lauren - Love the hair!! Looks fabulous!!! I love your fish too... Awesome that you have starfish too.. what about a lil french shrimp dude (like in nemo)?? lol.
Mel - I love pooh bear stuff. xav has pooh bedding for his cot, mobile and wall stickers...pooh bear is totally classic imo.
Bex - Welcome. Look forward to chatting.
AFM - Had a gd wk end. Just spent the weekend w dp. Xav was w his dad yesterday so dp and I had a lazy brunch at a nice cafe and then spent the afternoon chillin in the park... it was lovely. Worried about bub though.. every time he comes bk from having a visit w his dad he is so. upset and out of sorts. He is such a happy baby.. hate seeing him upset. He will not sleep when he is w his dad coz he is not in a familiar environment etc.. and I think its wrong to let a bub fight sleep all day. They need their sleep to develop etc.. grrrrrrrr:hair:.... I guess I just have to wait till the nxt court hearing to put my point across.. I just think its cruel to do this to the poor lil man. He should be considerate of the fact Xav will not sleep anywhere but in his own bed at home and work around his routine aaarghhh... enough complaining from me for now anyway...
If its a nice day tomorrow we will be off to the pool yay!!!!! xavy loves playing w he other bubs at the pool.... so.... cute!!!
Talk soon gals xo

[mummy7]

Cec - Forgot to say I watched pineapple express and loved it lol... very funny :laughing:

[cecandchels]

good morning all.

well im much better today, he came home with his tail between his legs and he knew he did the wrong thing. heres hoping it wont happen again.

rani - how funny was pinapple express? so good. twilight was pretty good, but i had really high expectations so it wasnt as good as i thought. and i thought the acting from bella wasnt so great, rather annoying really. but i still def recommend it. its good to see the book in pictures if u know what i mean. ur weekend sounded so nice with ur dp. it would be so hard for u with xav tho, i hate seeing chels upset and when he gets upset everytime i cant def understand why u want to change it. when is ur next chance to bring it up?

AFM - remember how our tv broke a couple of hours after we bought it? well, its been like that for two weeks and we have been stuff around by harvey norman for ages, dp fired up massively. so they are delivery a new one today. but on sat night a friend came over and was fiddling around with it (trying to make it half screen so they could play fifa) and he did something and suddenly the lines on the screen were gone. so now its fixed... we arent going to tell harvey norman and if they ask us we will say it must come and go. even tho its ok now, i feel like it might happen again. so i think we should take the new one. what do u guys think?

[mummy7]

Cec - Def take the new telly.. even if the lines are gone now it sounds really faulty. Damn Harvey Norman lol..
I love reading books and then watching the movie but hate when its a book to movie flop.. so disappointing. Still amped to see twilight once I finish the book.. but I will prob be disappointed like everyone else.
I did have a lovely weekend w dp.. he is wonderful...makes me very happy and is so fantastic w Xavier. I am glad ur dp came home w his tail between his legs.. so he bloody should.
I hate seeing bub upset.. It makes me feel so sad for him.. poor lil man. I have court in March.. not soon enough really. Might try calling my xp to see if I can reason w him.. dont like my chances though...:fingerscrossed:
:wave: to everyone else.
AFM - Off to do groceries and buy a new yoga mat today. Should really sell some Mary k stuff too to get some extra dollars.. hmmm.. Working tomorrow and then off to Hobart Wed so Xav can see his dad. Only doing a day trip this time. My gal pal is coming w me though which will make the travelling a zillion times easier phew...Aus day is not far away.. what is every1 upto??? BBQ's all round??
Have a great day ladies xo :flowerz:

[xlouxloux]

grrrrr i had such a cr@ppy sleep last night. I must have woke at sometime (im guessing around 3) it felt like i hadnt slept at all then it musta bee around 5 when i finally fell back asleep :( im so tired and feel so bad cos mondays are my cleaning day while Alyssa is at daycare but all i wanna do is gt back in bed! but that doesnt look like it will happen any time soon as the neighbours have a mulcher going! gahsake!!!!
Going to centrelink when df gets home from work we needa sort out my payments and update everything since i moved in. hopefully the forms are all filled in right, im sure they will find something wrong though lol

Mummy7 - id be really upset too if i had to take DD somewhere and she got unsettled everytime. Alyssa is much the same with her sleeping, doesnt settle well in other places. I always make sure shes home for her naps and dont tend to stay over anywhere with her. u gotta do what u think right for ur bub and his dad should understand that. hope u can sort something out. maybe try the 'dont u see hes unsettled, dont u want him to be happy' approach' or say when he is older and understands more he can stay over.

Cec - id be soooo annoyed!! i hate when df is late and doesnt give me a heads up first. feel like such a d!ck sitting and waiting for him for ages. glad he realises what he did though! Def think u should take the new tv, theres obviously something wrong with it and im sure it would do it again.

Morgan - love the stickers, they are so cute! i wouldnt bother peeling the butterflies off though if its a boy hehe they are small anyway. Not long nowwwww *cluck cluck* lol im hopeless!

Axelsmummy - yay for losing some weight! im thinking of going back on Tony Furguson when i go back to uni, my classes ar 530 - 830 pm so i could have a shake for dinner make it easier. but i suck at diets lol

Lauren - i love ur fishhhhhh i want fish! they are just so fun to watch one of my x's brothers had so many aquariums i swear he spent thousands on them! such an expensive hobby hehe BUBBLES MY BUBBLES!

Kirsten - glad to hear things are going well! good on u for giving bf a go in the first place hun u gotta do whats best for u and bub. I loveeee his bassenette by the way such a nice colour.

thats it im goig back to bed! sorry if i missed nyoneeeeeee xxx

[1stTimeMum09]

Hi girls..

CecandChels-:hugs: we all deserve a night out on a occasion or else we go insane. Lol. But bl00dy men you poor thing..

Mummy7-I have like 5 wondersuits and 3 easysuits. Lol. I want more like the starry suits I seen as well. :laughing: I hope Xavier will be okay :hugs:

Ixnay-have a good time in Perth can't wait to hear what your having..

:wave: to everyone else


AFM-Had my first outing today to visit my nan who I haven't seen for 20 years and it went really well getting on and off the train was a bit hard but I had dad's help I hope I be okay when I go out on my own because the platforms are pretty low..Good to see my nan after 20 years and she was smitten with Ryley as well and so were his 2 great great aunts.

Glad to be home its so hot and I think I be in for a bad night cos Ryley hates the heat. Have the MCHN coming tomorrow for the first visit and then I be going down to see them I am going to ask about the mothers group thing I wouldn't mind joining one.

Ryley is sleeping in his rocker at the moment in just a nappy and singlet and a fan over him..

[1stTimeMum09]

Hi girls..

:wave: and welcome rainjaa. I'm Kirsten and proud single mummy to my 2 week old little boy Ryley..

Meagan-yeah I know I can't believe it :( And this hot weather sucks. Hope your keeping cool..

PrincessofGod-hello and good to see you around.

:wave: to everyone else.

AFM-
Well the MCHN just left and Ryley now weights 3680grams and he head has grown from 32cm (birth) to now 36cm and he has a bit of thrush on his tongue so going to get some NicStat drops today for him but other than that he is going well she said and he is growing beautifully. And I feel much better and feed him ever 3 hours I thought it was ever 4 hours but he is waking up before that now so I'm happy and feel more relaxed.

My brother bought me a cot and I didn't expect it and I think the mattress that came with the cot looks brand new and hardly used so I am going to use it.

Well hope you all are well..
Kirsten

[FertileMertile]

Hey everyone!

I really gotta stop being so slack lol My adiction to FB is to blame hehe

Kirsten - I cant believe that Ryley is 2 weeks old already! Thats nice of your brother to buy you the cot!

Meg - Congratz on the weightloss! :smiliedance: I def feel for you being on the weightloss bandwagon. I joined tony ferguson after having Seth and I lost about 18 kgs. Unfortunately have put about 12 of that back on already lol Sorry to hear that you had such a bad night with Axel :hugs: I have had many nights like that with Seth. Im glad your mum came over to help out tho.

Cec - Sorry to hear that DP did that to you! :hugs: Men just dont understand im glad he is all sorry tho you can milk him sucking up to you hehe. Did you end up getting the new tv?

Rani - I totally agree about the visits with exDP. I understand that he has a right to see his child but they are just babies they should really work around their routine. I hope you can work something out :hugs: Re the aus day celebrations, in Perth its a HUGE thing to go down to the south perth forshore and get totally smashed off your face lol Thats how me and DP met :p We havent been down there since however as I was preg with Seth the year after we met and its not really a nice environment for a kid. Wherever I am I plan to listen to JJJ's hottest 100!

Lou - Yay for shopping tomorrow! I hope you get a good sleep tonight :)

Rainjaa - Good news about the 2 teeth popping thru!

AFM - Not much happening here. Just been looking at baby stuff on the net constantly and trying not to buy it lol I am undecided whether to buy a bouncer/rocker or not. I have a fisher price cradle swing that I could use to put the baby in but I worry that seth would go up and swing it himself lol Am considering getting one second hand but gonna keep my eye out for cheap one I like. I do like the fisher price papasan one as its more of a infant seat and cant be bounced or rocked by seth. Its about 100 bux tho!

[blessedmummy]

hey girls!! hope u dont mind me being in here...:o anyhow.... ill stop dribbling now... lol! well, had a busy day today with my nephews here for a few days so its a full house atm,but its fun :D my girls and my nephews are all going to dongara tomorrow with my parents should be good, ill have some time to myself for a few hours, should be nice. :D well just a quiet night tonight watch a movie then have a early night i think ...well, chat to you all later:wave:

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :hair: I said not in a pink fu#k!ng fit!!!!!!!!!!!!! My b!tch pants are on now gals.. nxt time we are in court I am going to rock n roll like a crazy b!tch lol. I have been civil speaking to him on the phone etc.. but now he is just being a devious ******* and asking for the impossible!! There is no way I am willing to agree to something like that grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!! Anyway..........

Busy selling some mary k tonight to get some cash together for my trip over to Melb nxt Thurs to see prodigy woot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Night xo

[cecandchels]

hey girls,

well i know its not as hot here as it has been else where, but im hot to trot today. ive closed the curtains and turned off the lights in an effort to keep cooler, but not sure its working. might just have to resort to the air con again in a bit.

rani - boo to ur xp for doing that to u!! he should really be putting xav's happiness and well being first before what he wants. i hope everything works out ok. but how exciting for ur trip to melb to see the prodigy. im so not a concert girl, i feel like im going to die when im in big crowds cause im too much of a wuss and im short and end up having armpits in my face all night :laughing:. ive been to a couple of big day outs with dp (he loves them, this will be the 1st yr in about 7 yrs he hasnt been) but i can go with out. i know how u feel about leaving him for a night, i have never left chels for the whole night either. im sure she would be fine, its just me who would be freaking out. dp is always trying to get me to go somewhere for a night, but i havent had the guts yet.

princessofgod - i hope u have a great couple of hours to urself today. its nice to have that oppotunity. im leaving chels with my sis this afternoon, but only to get a wax, so its really not that relaxing.

mel - yes we finally got the new tv!! we told the delivery guy that the lines come and go but he said to take the new one for sure (not that we werent going to in the end). on australia day its actually dp's birthday, so we are having a bbq with friends and fam and then heading out, should be nice. but we will be cranking JJJ for shiz. who do u think will get it?

kirsten - thats awesome about the cot! so nice of ur bro. so many ppl bought all our stuff for us, we were really lucky, in the end i think we only had to buy the bassinet. i think i only bought two outfits for her as a newborn as all the rest where presents.

megan - i hope axel was better last night, chels was a bit restless too, i think cause of the heat. but in my tired state i just turned off the monitor and went to sleep. oops.

AFM - well, the big news is that chelsea is really starting to walk. the most steps she was taken by herself is 10 so far, it only happened last night and it was so cute, u could see her concentrating so hard on moving her feet and staying balanced. she will be running in no time. im trying to get her to have two naps in the day again, she went off it for a while, but i think she needs it. she is sleeping now, but by the time she will need her next one it will be about 4-5 and i think thats to late, but im not sure. what so u girls do? well, im having a boring day: washing up, tidying, washing and groceries. boo ill be glad when its over.

xo

[embryonichappyperson]

Hi ladies! I hope you are all well.

Well I can't say I'm doing really well. Jayson got a phone call this morning from his working letting him know that the BHP mine he works at is closing down in 2 weeks and they are out of the job.

I'm feeling pretty low and everything is up in the air as we don't know what the hell we are going to do.

Since the mine is closing we can't live in Hopetoun anymore. A lot of people will be leaving Hopetoun within the next couple of months probably. Because half the population has people in the family that USED to work at the mine.

Jayson is going to some meeting this afternoon in regards to BHP and what is going on. He needs to find out if his work might find him work in another town and regards to a payout.

It looks like we are gonna move back to Perth very soon IF nothing else happens. The loose plan is we are going to live with my SIL and her partner because our house needs to be re done.

Jayson is going over today to tell his brother and 2 cuz that they need to move out within the month as we need our house back. My SIL did a estimate of how much it would cost to redo the house and it's do-able.

So hopefully if that is what's going to happen we will live with my SIL and Jayson will look for work and re do the house because it basicall is falling to bits on the inside. I don't see it getting done before I have the baby.

Jayson might have to do fly-in fly-out for a little while. So we are going to see what happend in the next few days.

We have to sort it out quick so we can enrol Rohan in a school in Perth before school starts and we have to go back to Hopetoun and move all our **** upto Perth and put it all in the back of our house till it's been fixed.

I'm feeling pretty bleh and I feel like crying all the time. But we will be ok hopefully! I go to get my scan tomorrow and find out what I'm having so it isn't all bad.

So we shall see what the coming weeks bring!

NOT EFFIN HAPPY!!! I really liked Hopetoun...:(

[laylasmumma23]

Hey girlies how are we all? im good, hot!! but good...and i mean hot in a sweaty hot not the oo la la way!! LOL

Ixnay- I love your nursery so far the stickers are so cute!!
Hope your having fun in perth...:fingerscrossed: for your little pink bundle..but if its a boy..hope he's healthy and cooking along nicely!

Axelsmummy- Hows your weight watchers going? Im thinking about trying those shakes to replace one meal..but then i really dont want to lose too much weight..im kinda in the "i need to tone up" catergory lol
you dont need to hide after you 'confession' we understand what your going through...I dont have pnd but i still have those days where layla wont settle..i put her in her cot and go chill for a few minutes! Glad you have your mum for support.

Rainjaa- I had a blue tongue lizard when i was a kid..Jake was his name and crunching snails was his game!! it was soo gross when he got snail guts all over him..*vomit*
New year was pretty average..watched the fireworks on tv and bubhubbed LOL..didn't even drink..how sad!! i did make it till 1:00 though before i crashed.
Congrats on the new set of fangs lol my dd almost has her top teeth..i miss her gummy smile..
Hope your dd has fun at playgroup.

Cec-Men ey!! cant live with em and you cant live without em...:rolleyes:..glad he got what he did wrong though and sorted it all out.
Glad you got your tv all fixed up..bet your glad that drama is over with lol
awww congrats to your dd and her walking..welcome to my world!!! next you need to babyproof!! or just put everything up higher.
I wanted layla to pick up her second sleep again, but it just never worked..you could try rest time..even if she doesn't sleep..i think putting her back down at 4-5 will mean she goes to bed later then normal unless you shorten it, by only allowing an hour.

Mummy7-Thanks for compliment on the new do! I love it, no more 'mummy bun' for me..dont act like you all dont know what a mummy bun is lol..
I really wanted a shrimp (like nemo) but they cost a fair bit..they can range from $175 to $245 (which is a weeks rent for me lol)..we got snails and hermit crabs instead lol
Oz day im having a little get together with friends i haven't seen for 2 years or something and having pizza and just relaxing..bubby free.. so i might actually get to have a couple brewski's lol...:yelclap:
OMG your ex sounds like a total A-hole :thumbsdown:!! suppose not being around him 24/7 it would be hard for him to understand that its to hard for a baby to handle the travelling and getting out of routine and just being unsettled.
Layla loves brushing her hair as well...and mine and dp's and monkey's..and anyone else who will volunteer to endure 5 minutes of being smacked in the head with the back of a brush lol put gosh do we look pretty after :laughing:
My dd is scared of the vacumme cleaner..i cant vacumme alone..she goes to the corner of the room and screams!! its ok when its off..but on..no way in hell she will go near it..weird child of mine lol

Lou-You still struggling to sleep..maybe u should have a winding down process as well , have a nice warm bath, read a book...are the sleeping tablets working?
Yeah my fish rock..lol it is an expensive hobby, but we've had them since b4 dd even exsisted so we had to budget for both..lol
we cant have a dog so fish are my alternative, plus layla loves them.
Hope everything went ok at centrelink..i know how annoying they are.

1sttimemummy- Glad Ryley charmed everyone, especially your Nan.
Good score with the free cot!! Layla is the first grandchild on both sides of the family so she is spoilt rotten!! i didn't have to buy the highchair, porta cot,baby bath,play pen or the pram. Layla's cot was my cot when i was a bubs..i just Jazzed it a little bit and got a new mattress..but i really only bought the change table which was $100 from a second hand baby shop..and some paint and stuff to do my chest of drawers up, which were given to me..lol..
:laughing: Ryley's head was bigger then Layla's..hers was 31cm..but i felt everybit of it LOL
Glad he got a good report from the middies and is growing.
How did you go finding a mummy's group?

Princessofgod-dont worry im slack to..i have another thread that i chat in..so its hard to keep up with both. What are you going to do with your "me time"?

FM-Your as slack as me!!
Hmmm you could always sell your cradle rocker thing so you can buy your bouncer/rocker. I had a rocker..she grew out of it way to fast..i used it for a little while to feed her in it before we had a high chair and it was useful to put her to sleep when she was really little..but i think i only got 3 months out of it..

AFM- Im fan friggen tastic..yesturday was ****e..had no water and no food and was trapped in my house because the council cemented the driveway without letting us move the car out first.
The weather is HOT HOT HOT!!..loving swimming tho..doing laps to work on my mummy muffin top!
Nothing really interesting to report..my house looks like a tornado has been through it..but its too hot to clean *cries*..my washing has been on the line for 2 days..lol im lazy as well at the moment..anyways this post is massive..i hope i got everyone..catch ya lataz xx

[embryonichappyperson]

Ixnay- I love your nursery so far the stickers are so cute!!
Hope your having fun in perth...:fingerscrossed: for your little pink bundle..but if its a boy..hope he's healthy and cooking along nicely!

Ummm no I'm not having fun in Perth lol. Didn't you read my last post? BHP Nickel mine in Ravensthorpe has closed down and Jayson has lost his job and we are trying to figure out what we are going to do.

To be honest I'm not overly concerned with what the sex of the baby is lol. I will be happy to see the baby well and kicking on the screen but I'm a bit more worried about what we are going to do for money and where we are going to live now.

As for the nursery stickers they are coming down because we are no longer living in that house. We have to leave asap...

Basically in this point in time we are royally ****ed lol.

[axelandlexismum]

[JJJRain-crew]

omg i need to ramble on i am soooo nervous!!!
I just applied for this traineeship...I had no choice, I saw it and I knew it was for me! I am pretty experianced too, so i think i have a good chance of getting it, which would mean that I would go to work and my fiance would stay at home with Jazz, that is such a big shift from what i am currently doing...but it would be such an awesome opportunity to advance my career, especially because I have been trying for so long to get ahead and closer to my goal of starting my own landscaping buisiness... I really want to do this...but I am scared about being a full time working mum, I will have my fiance there but i am still nervous about juggling everything, it's totally new to me...but anyway I havent even got the job yet and I am ranting...I would really love to do it though...LOL LOL lol LOL nervous laughter LOL

[JJJRain-crew]

o and btw
Mummy7: O u poor darl, your situation w your xp sounds very frustrating for you, hopefully it will all work out in the end. Thats so cute...with ur buby brushing his hair...Jazz is obsessed with her hair (and mine) she is always playing w it, which terrifies me a little cause if she is still obsessed when she is a teenager I am not going to no wat to do (I was such a tomboy when I was a kid) I know nothing about makeup and clothes and all that shazam. lol

Mel: God I love JJJ..partly cause my lil crew also make up JJJ...we r the JJJ crew and u prob have no idea wat i am rambling about LOL but when I open my buisiness I am going to call it J-Crew landscaping or something LOL meh who no's I dont even no wat i am goin on about right now LOL...But i do no that 4 Oz day I am going to have a bbq on the beach in all my aussie gear LOL and swim and go tubing and mb have a lil bundie LOL...

Axelsmum: I am sure no one judges u...well I dont anyway LOL...here I am speaking for everyone else...I had pnd for about 5 months after Jazz was born... so:hugs: from an almost complete but sympathetic stranger... She wasn't sleeping well at all 4 a few months coz she was really hungry and I didnt realise untill we ended up at the hospital family centre ( my breastmilk was drying up because I was so anxious)...but things came good in the end as I am sure they will 4 u too :)

Morgan: How stressful 4 u with the Job thing, the exact same thing hapened to us when I was pregnant, Jay lost his job and our landlord decided to move back into our house, so we had no home no Job...but strangely we ended up getting a house a few weeks later when my flatmate and my fiance both had no work... must have been an act of the universe...

Really soz 4 all those I missed and names I havent learnt yet...I am a slow progresser...But I am also hypr...like a snail on speed...yep thats me allrite LOL... Hope all is good on the flip side LOL

[cecandchels]

hey guys,

im just waiting for chels to go to sleep. i put her down but i can hear her talking and being generally p!ssed off about being in bed, ha ha.

morgan - :hugs::hugs: thats terrible. i cant imagine how stressful this is for u right now and i really hope everything works out. my cousin was working for bhp in WA too, maybe the same one? she also lost her job yesterday and will be flying back to sydney soon i guess. was he able to get re-assigned or something? damn economic crisis :banghead:

lauren - chels loves the vaccuum cleaner! she chases it around and tries to grab it, which makes actually doing the vaccuuming a tad hard. but she is so scared of my epilady. ha ha. i turned it on last night and she raced to the other side of the room and hid in the kitchen till i had finished. our house is so messy too. i just cant be bothered to do anything right now, esp at "this time of the month" grr. im sucha victim, ha ha. im really not looking forward to baby proofing. i have no where to put any of the stuff i need to move. and im paranoid the tv will fall on her.

rani - i know, its so cute. she gets over it pretty quickly. esp when she doesnt have a big audience to impress.

rainjaa - good luck with the traineeship! how long till u find out?

hello to all the other lovely ladies, im off to try and calm chelsea down enough for her to fall asleep. xo

[axelandlexismum]

Hey everyone...:wave:

Just thought i would pop in and say hello.. Im bored Axel is sleeping, lil man went swimming today we had fun with the other mums from mums group lol and it cooled us down!!! My friend is coming to visit (the one i was talking bout the other day) hopefully we get on lol...

Well il be back later sorry bout the boring post lol...

[embryonichappyperson]

Hi ladies,

Well I had my scan today and baby was moving alot and everything looks good. I have to go back in 4 weeks to get another scan as the lady couldn't get a decent look at the heart to check out the chambers. But she said it looks ok but she wants to make sure.

Btw I'm having a BOY :) Rohan is pretty happy with that and seemed a bit stunned for a minute :laughing:

We did a bit of shopping and put the lack of job and having to move to the back of our minds. We had a look at IKEA for draws for Rohan and the baby and ideas for our house when we gut it and re do it.

Hope everyone has had a good day!

[FertileMertile]

Hey everyone!

Morgan - Firstly congrats to Morgan for finding out that you are having a healthy baby BOY! I was really hoping for a girl for you, thought between the 2 of us at least 1 of us would have one lol But serisouly great news that bubs is healthy. I almost had to go back for another scan too coz he couldnt get a good profile shot. I just jumped around a bit and bubs moved so it was all good in the end. Im so so sorry to hear that your DP lost his job :thumbsdown: I heard yesty that 3000 BHP guys lost their jobs. Just sucks that they dont give any notice. Hopefully he gets a payout so you guys can get set up in Perth. Where do you own your house?

Lauren - Def not looking to sell the swing. The rocker is just a 'in the meantime' thing until bubs is big enough for the swing. I just keep checking ebay and the paper for something second hand, im sure it will come up! BTW Seth Loves the vacuum! He chases it around and sits on the cord lol It makes it really hard to vacuum.

Meg - Aww im sorry to hear Axel is giving you a hard time:hugs: I always find my child health nurse really helpful when Seth is being impossible. Maybe you could hit her up for a few ideas?

Rani - Hope you had a nice day today with your yoga and bike ride! I know what you mean about making them push you around for awhile. It would be lovely to swap positions with Seth while im pushing him in the pram lol

rainjaa - BBQ on the beach sounds really fun! I have no idea what to do now as it will be 38 degrees in Perth on oz day. I think i just wanna stay in the cool BTW good luck with the traineeship!

cec - I hope you feel better soon. I have to say thats one good thing about being preg is you dont have to put up with AF :)

AFM - Well I have been busy shopping and more shopping. Spent waaaaay too much money yesterday and today but got a few nice things for bub (i just cant help myself) and I have 2 weddings to goto next month so also got a nice dress to wear. Im just relieved I got that out of the way, i was stressing I wouldnt have anything to wear! Seth is having a sleepover tomorrow night at my mums place as me and DP are having a 'date night' Im really looking forward to it. We are going out to dinner and then going to see a movie. Sounds a bit boring but it will be nice to spend some time together without worrying about Seth. Its our 3 yr anniversary on Monday so thought we would celebrate it a few days earlier. Im stuck on what movie to see tho. I really wanna see either Yes man or Role Models. I know DP will like either. Has anyone seen these movies? BTW me and lou saw Bride wars on tues and it was really good! I highly recommend you all seeing it :yes:

[cecandchels]

mel - i def know what u mean about AF. cause im still breastfeeding i didnt have it for 22 months. it was great, now i have to adjust to having her visit every month again. also, me and dp saw yes man, we had gone to see benjamin button but read the times wrong. we almost went home but decided we might as well see something, therefore due to having really really low expectations of the movie - we really enjoyed it. i hadnt laughed like that in a movie for ages. im a fan of jim carey tho so i guess that helps. but i would say see it!

morgan - CONGRATS FOR THE HEALTHY HOT DOG! how are u feeling about everything today? hope ur ok, sending more :hugs:

[1stTimeMum09]

Hello girls..Can't sleep at the moment re: eek look at the time :laughing:

Morgan-congrats on a healthy boy!! Have you got any names picked out? How is everything going and I hope your going okay..

Megean-yeah 2 weeks have gone fast. Lol. I suffer from depression so I am prone to PND and I admit I shed a few tears in the last week or so. I think I understand what you are going through..Your not a bad mummy :hugs:

Mel-you can never spend too much money I am a shop a holic myself. Lol.

:wave: to everyone else..

AFM- Went to Centrelink today and it went really well and I was only there for a hour and a bit as they were putting it through and dad was there because Ryley was due for a feed. I now getting single parenting and family tax benefits payments and the baby bonus in installments so I am quite happy with that..I be buying Ryley lots of things and me a new pair of glasses..I am hoping to get my P's this year as well..

Now waiting for the Birth Certificate which is a long story which I won't bore you with as I am having ah issues with it. Lol.

Hope you all are well.
Kirsten

[axelandlexismum]

Goooood morning all lol...:wave:

Well Axel has been ok the last couple of days lol, hopefully it lasts!!!! He keeps talking (baby talk) and making noises sometimes it sounds like he is saying "dad,dad,dad" lol its cute hehe im sure he isnt though....

Kisten- Yeah it goes quick trust me lol... Glad you can understand what im going though (not glad you have depression its horrible).... Well i hope you ended up sleeping last night if not make sure you nap during the day, its gonna be hot so not much else to do lol...

Ixnay- Congratulations on the healthy baby boy... Are you happy? Hope everything is going ok with you hubby and the whole job thing, hopefully things work out soon!!!

Mel- Well i havent seen my MCHN since Axel was 5 and a half months! Plus she isnt that helpfull lol... But thanks for the advice though....

Rainjaa- Hey thanks for telling me you had pnd too, glad things have gone back to normal for you hopefully things will start going good for me soon lol....

Well il be off gotta feed Axel his cereal lol.... Hello to everyone i missed xxx

[embryonichappyperson]

Melissa-I thought I might have a girl too! :laughing: But there are alot of boys in Jayson's family and mine so I'm really not surprised that I'm having another boy.

Our house is located in Beckenham. I like the area and it's close to Carousel hehe. Won't be doing much shopping though since we have serious lack of $$$.

cec- I'm feeling good about having a boy. I'm kind of relieved tbh. I find boys much easier and I don't have to worry about frilly things and bloody dolls hehe.

Kirsten- Yeah I have a few names picked out but Jayson is not overly keen on them. He told me they are ok lol. So I told him well why don't YOU think of some to add cause so far I have picked them all out! lol.

ax- Ya I'm ok, just a bit tired. Yes I'm happy! A baby is a baby as long as it's healthy. Which mine seems to be so far! :)

AFM- Well today I went out and bought school supplies for Rohan and Jayson is off having drinks and getting drunk with mates and his cuz and bro.

I went and saw the Ob and she just said everything is looking good blah blah and I need to come back in a month. I need to get a scan in 4 weeks to see if the heart can be checked properly and that is it.

I have depression and it's getting pretty bad lately so she wants me to go on drugs that are ok while your pregnant and I need to go have counselling soon, when I move to Perth.

The plan is so far we are going to leave Rohan here with Jayson's sister and her partner and Rohan will start at the school the partner works at which happens to be 2 blocks away from our house in Beckenham. So that works out nicely!

We will go back to Hopetoun as planned next Wed and pick up the dog and start to organise moving etc. I might fly back to Perth later on and Jayson will organise other stuff.

Jayson has to ring his work and find out what's going on and tell HR that he wants to be sent to Perth. Basically he is either going to get a low paying job here in Perth OR do fly in fly out for a while.

All in all it's time for a change and Perth is easier to access help for Rohan's problems ie ADHD etc. I loved living in Hopetoun, but it's a bit easier in Perth.

[JJJRain-crew]

:smiliedance:hello everyone :wave:
well as u may have noticed by my emotions I am GOOD And:iagree: with myself LOL...which is different 4 me...Im confused, wait mb im not.

ANYWAY...
morgs: congrats on the healthy bub...say hi to him 4 me. I agree with the boy thing...no frills or dolls...no MAKEUP!!! well m/b 4 a while but prob just be a phase LOL. If Jazz turns out loving all that stuff I am going to drive her to her grandma's house and let her deal with it LOL... she had 3 boys...so she will be in new territory too HAHA...o btw I no it rhymes with bogin but the name tobin is cool...or toby...not so bogan LOL but I am just another person with an oppinion who should shutup LOL... guess u get used to that wen ur a mum hey! O hope u start to feel a little better w the depression...seems like there r a few of us who are prone to depression so u r not alone...:hugs:
Hey megan: u opened up the door 4 all other depression suffers on this thread to talk openly :) it is tough when bubs dont sleep, it affects most ppl...just differently I guess. I am with u I dont find my health nurse helpful, I dont even go to her anymore, I take Jazz to my GP 4 checkups, it costs money but I dont relate to the nurse on any level... she stresses me out! Glad Ax is getting better, when i started getting Jazz to self settle I had to let her cry for up to an hour sometimes...it was very stressfull..i found it good to use the ipod so i could listen to music and stay calm while I went in to her room to calm her down...w/o picking her up I mean...after a week or so she started to get it, she still whinges now tho, but I know she is just chucking a tantrum and she isnt in distress...I actually stayed at the hospital family center 4 three days...they helped with everything...and they give u tactics to help babies self settle...i found it really helpful, u can get a refferal from ur GP if u r interested...well anyway hope that helps, I just thought I would le u no because it was the best thing I did 4 Jazz and I when I ad PND

Well those last two posts were so lon everyone else will have to miss out LOL

Well today is HOT again so I will be living in the pool w Jazz today LOL...I just bought a giant banana blow up boat in green and gold...4 oz day, its a two seater with cup holders 4 my rum and coke...I am gunna attempt to use it in the surf LOL
Hi everyone else I am getting to ur posts...i am! PEACE OUT :flowerz:

[JJJRain-crew]

HEY thanks 4 ur good wishes 4 the traineeship...I guess if I hear back then thats good otherwise I prob won't hear back...But it doesnt matter because it will happen at the right time when it does...I'll let u no if anything happens LOL i thing they may have already filled the position though but thats ok too because my dp just started to get some design work at home which I will be helping out with :):thumbsup:

o and i just discovered that I can only use 9 emotions at a time per post, I am so devostated...:hissy:

[1stTimeMum09]

Hi girls its a bit quiet in here lately..Happy Australia Day..

Meg-your welcome..Its not a good thing to have.You need to chat or anything you know where to find me. Lol. We are good I feed him and he goes straight to sleep again :laughing:

Ixnay-how are things going with you?..Glad to hear that bubs is healthy..Boys are easier and they look after their mum too..Everyone reckons Ryley will be tall and solid so that's good as I am such a short a$$ :laughing:

rainjaa-I like using the emoticons as well :yes: I have trouble settling Ryley down sometimes but what you suggest about going a clinic is a good idea :thumbsup: I got to learn not to pick Ryley up everytime he cries :o I just have to go in there and try and settle him down without picking him up. Lol.

:wave: to everyone else..

AFM-Like I said things are going well. My mum has gone away for the long weekend and it was good not to have her here as she likes to ah tell me what to do and such and I was able to settle Ryley down on my own with out any help and I was proud of that..He been feeding 130mls of formula but seems to want more so I give him a little extra and he seems to more satisfied and he is a lot happier too..Off to see the MCHN tomorrow and I am wondering what he will weight now. Lol.

Well hope you all are well..
Kirsten

[cecandchels]

hey girls.

im just at dp's mums house for the weekend. it was dp's birthday today and yesterday we had a bbq with friends and fam which was nice. sadly i have lost my camera for the moment, hopefully its around here somewhere. but dunc's sis put up some photos on facebook as i cant. grrr - or should i make that :banghead:? (1 down,5 emoticons to go). went out to the city last night, but everyone got messy in the end and i was so over it. i didnt want to be hung over today so i slowed down heaps and didnt enjoy the end of the night. i wish everyone was a sensible as me and didnt drag it out :laughing:. so also, dunc has this week off so we are heading up the coast again to his family unit in avoca. should be good cause school is going back so it wont be as crowded as last time. well some other good news for us is that dp got offered a job with DOCS which starts in a couple of weeks. will be great, he has been working as a cellar man at the local rsl for the last two years and it was a job he was never meant to stay in so long. he wanted to get into the federal police, but seeing as tho they have no money that idea has been delayed until they are hiring again, who knows when that will be. so i think he will really enjoy actually doing some work for a change, and the pay rise doesnt hurt :smiliedance:

megan - i def know how u feel about putting ax down. chels still struggles to sleep wthout a fuss but she has gotten heaps better recently. its so nice when u can walk out of their room without them screaming for u. i was hopeless at control crying and i always picked her up, which worked enough for me (after a year :rolleyes:).

morgan - how is everything going? have u found out whats happening with jasons job? my friend just had a baby boy named callum. what are u guys thinking in terms of names?

kirsten - thats great ryley is happier these days, u have to tell us how much he weighs now. he looks so cute in his photos :yes:.

:wave: to everyone i have missed. ill be back soon hopefully but if not have a good week!

(yay, i used 6)

[mummy7]

Will jump on tomorrow 4 personals
Night ladies
Congrats on ur healthy lil boy Morgan!!!

[embryonichappyperson]

ax- Well I should be ok cause I'm on happy pills and they should take the edge off haha. Everything else is ok, it's just the stupid effin house. I wish I could just not worry about it! It hasn't helped that Jayson's brother has not properly looked after it and kept it even semi clean. I'm not to impressed with how he has treated the house. Took him about 3 years to pay rent. I don't dislike Jayson's brother, but god damn it's still annoying.

BUT I'm happy the baby is healthy! :D Everything else is a pain in the a**! :laughing:

Kirsten- Yeah I agree boys generally love their mummies. Rohan is still attached to me a little bit and always tells me he loves me and shows me affection all the time. His such a cute kid! Everyone say awwwwww hahaha! :D

Rohan is getting lots of "wow his tall" comments this week. I don't really notice cause I look at him everyday but comparing him to a boy today that's 2 years younger I was like whoa his so tall! :p

cec- I can't tell you anything! lol. Jayson's EX supervisor is supposed to ring him tomorrow to tell him the news IF any. I have nothing to tell atm, I have just been saying I dunno anything to people. Because I really don't know! It's stupid! Just waiting and waiting for some news!

Apart from that I guess everything is fine, nothing new to report. I have bought all of Rohan's stuff for school, been shopping for myself for bigger tops as my stomach is expanding again lol and geez sfa honestly! We got out Hellboy the other day wow man. But yeah interesting movie. Rohan is into Wall-e now after we bought him a new game for his Leapster 2.

We are going home to Hopetoun on Wed, we as in Jayson and I. Rohan will stay behind and start school. I presume we will still be living in Perth as planned and we will move here when we know wtf is going on!

Geez I don't know how long I will be away aye? I'm going home and faxing Rohan's birth certificate to his new school once a cop has signed a copy to prove yes his my son and I gotta post up some more pills for his ADHD to my SIL.

Ah this is stupid! I hate being in this situation and not knowing what the hell is going on! I'm having a baby soon! Grrrr! :hair:

[axelandlexismum]

Good morning everyone...:wave:

Well im feeling SO much better this week lol hopefully things stay good and dont get worse again!!!! Axel is starting to say 'dad,dad,dad' its so cute (pitty its not 'mum' lol) oh well hehe...

Kristen- I cant believe Riley is 3 wks old already how time flys lol... Yeah its not a good thing to have but things will work out and get better, hope you servive the horrible heat this wk, since when is it ever 40plus in melbourn??? Not happy bout that lol :(

Ixnay- Hey hope you getting through everything? Im sure you will be fine, its our job to stress bout everything, i know it sucks!!! Cant believe his brother didnt look after your house properly thats just rude! Hope Rohan enjoys his new school...:)

Cec- Yeah getting him down to sleep some nights is SO hardd, but we are getting thre he has been really good lately yay me!!! Lol... Hope you have been good? Glad to hear bout DP's job offer...:thumbsup:

Mel- Where are you? :confused: Lol you like disapearing and then popping back every now and then lol, hope all i well?

Hello everyone else i missed...:wave: Well im off before i get too boring lol.... speak soon xx

[embryonichappyperson]

Hi,

I think Rohan will be alright for his first day of school. He will be going with SIL partner who works at the same school, so that might help. He will probably feel funny at first since it's new, but hopefully the kids are nicer here.

We are going back to Hopetoun tomorrow and we will see what the hell happens.

[FertileMertile]

Hey everyone! :flowerz:

Jeez its been quiet in here! We must be all off having a life lol

Morgan - Hope you have a good trip back to hopetown. I know its not a the best circumstances but it might be nice for you and DP to spend some time together without rohan. I know you have prolly said but was DP a contracter for BHP or was he a full time employee? I was talking to DP about this and he said alot of the full time employees that have been with BHP for awhile clean up by being laid off as they have to pay them out heaps. Some of his customers are now retiring they are getting that much. 1 of his customers was only working on the mine for a yr and his payout was $17 grand. Hopefully you are a similar situation.

meg - Congratz on your weightloss for this week! Sounds like you are doing really well. Keep it up :thumbsup:

rainjaa - im an emoticon junkie also hehe :yes:

Cec - Even tho your night ended up messy I hope you still had a good time! Im the same as you, i always think of the hang over the next morning and slow down as soon as I start to feel tipsy! Congratz to DP for getting a new job too :smiliedance:

Rani - Glad to hear you had such a good weekend! Dont know about you but I was disappointed that kings of leon got top spot in the hottest 100. I dont think they are that great.

Hello to anyone else I have missed :wave:

Morgan - Hope you have a good trip back to hopetown. I know its not a the best circumstances but it might be nice for you and DP to spend some time together without rohan. I know you have prolly said but was DP a contracter for BHP or was he a full time employee? I was talking to DP about this and he said alot of the full time employees that have been with BHP for awhile clean up by being laid off as they have to pay them out heaps. Some of his customers are now retiring they are getting that much. 1 of his customers was only working on the mine for a yr and his payout was $17 grand. Hopefully you are a similar situation.


Nah DP is a fulltime employee, well was. He is a shift chemist/supervisor. His redundancy will be a nice amount $$$.

Jayson got a call from his supevisor and he won't finish for good till late Feb early Mar. Then he will organise the movers and all that. I will bring some stuff upto Perth on Sun and I will stay here for good after that. I will go down near the time Jayson finishes so I can supervise the movers hehe.

So yeah I get to float around Perth for a few weeks now.

I will miss Jayson because we have to be apart for a little while but I have to go back and look after Rohan.

At least I can go visit mates and family. Dunno what the future will hold lol.

[axelandlexismum]

[laylasmumma23]

Hey girlies...where are we all? its gone really really quiet in here..echo echo echo echo...

Its official...adelaides weather has sent me stir crazy!! i have been a prisoner of my own home for a week..and it looks like i will be this week as well..and to top it off..dd broke my sunnies...sure they were only $50 and not a fancy brand...but it took me ages to find the perfect pair so i was pretty peeved!..dd had to sit on the naughty spot!
My house is a mess because i cant be bothered cleaning it...ok ok so im just venting and moaning and groaning...lol

Axelsmummy- :smiliedance: yay for axels first tooth, how exciting for you and him...good ol chomper lol...pretty soon you can get him his own toothbrush and teach him how to clean his teeth..no toothpaste yet though..not until he learns hot to spit it out.
OMG your a size 10..im so jealous! im a size 12..i was a 10 but i went up to a 12 when i got pregnant...im actually pretty happy though, just gotta tone up the tum tum lol
We had 3 blackouts..the first one was on the hottest night ever in 70 years in adelaide.it was 45.6!!!!..i had no power for 7 hours!!!! we had to use torches, candles and face washers...dd didn't care though..she slept through it..

[axelandlexismum]

Hello everyone, where is everyone gone?? Its SO quite in here lol....

Laylas- Yeah for axels tooth, its almost all the way out but its pretty sharp lol, so glad hehe...
Yeah im back to a size 10, i also only wen up to a 12 which was good, i lost another half a kg on the wk end when i went to get weighed lol.... Yeah we have had some REALLY hot day cant stand it.... Its getting cooler now which is great :yelclap:

Kristen- Hugs for Riley lol hope your enjoying your new pram??

Mel- How you going? Hows your bump going and Seth? Hope to you dont have this horrible hot weather...

Ixnay- Hope Rohan enjoyed his first day of school? Hope you going ok too....


Well im off hopefully next time there are some ppl come back lol (hope that makes sense hehe)

[embryonichappyperson]

laylas- Yeah my chicken ain't so funky lately, it's more deep roasted from this disgusting heat! I feel like I have been stuck on a metal stick and I'm rotating in a oven in Woolworths LOL.

Well Rohan's first day was interesting. He got in trouble for biting a kid on the arm at the water fountain. :o I told the vice-principal that he hasn't bitten any kids since he was in daycare, which was years ago.

I put it down to first day at a big school, which is alllll new and shiny and his a bit put out. Also the heat doesn't help. I had a talk to him at home and explained if his so despo for a drink of water then go to his bag and get a drink from his water bottle! :cool:

ax- Yeah Rohan liked his first day of school. I guess getting told off for biting someone dampened his enthusiasm somewhat lol. He will settle down in a couple of weeks I reckon. The sudden change of schools and life has probably made him a bit wobbly haha.

Yeah I'm going ok, very hot and the heat is driving me nuts. I HATE IT! :hair:

[cecandchels]

hello ladies,

it really has dropped off in here, maybe we are all just getting boring-er.

well i had a really nice week at the beach. chels even got used the the sand in the end, and walked into the waves in the edge yesterday and today, which was big progress. im kind of sad its over, but kinda of glad to be back. i have to get chels' vaccines this week, im running behind by about a month, oops. but im so not looking forward to it so i keep putting it off. this week for sure tho! i have to buy a fan for chels' room tomorrow cause its too hot (not as hot as some peeps i know) but i heard that syd is going to get over 40 this weekend, ew.

going to have yum cha tomorrow with a friend, im so excited. love love love yum cha! well, im off to bed now but ill be back to personal later. xo xo

[mummy7]

Morning ladies...
OMG it is so... quiet in here.
Kirsten - Ur lil man is growing up fast.. 1 month already.. bet it has flown. poor lil man in the Melb heat though. I was there Thurs Fri last wk and thought I was going to melt.. so yuk. Glad he is doing well and gaining weight nicely etc..
Mel - How is your bump? I feel sorry for you in this heat. I was a bit bummed about the kings being #1 as well. I used to love them so much but they have been way way too overplayed now imo.
Lauren - Glad you had a fun Aus day. Climbing.. arghhhhh.... she must be loving all the mischief she can get into now hehe..
Prodigy!!!!!!!!! :smiliedance:... OMFG it was awesome.. almost the best live act I have seen. Dont know about better than sex but pretty damn close lol.
Megean - Congrats on Axels firt lil toothy peg!!! Top or bottom? Bet he looks so.. cute! Congrats on ur weight loss as well.. you are doing a great job!
Morgan - U poor thing.. pregnant in this heat. I cant imagine being preg this time of year. I had Xav end of Dec just before the heat really hit.. I would of been a really grumpy preg woman if I were preg in the hight of summer lol. Shame about Rohan's first day of school.. big change for the champ though hey. Your right he will be fine after a cpl of wks.
Cec - Yum yum.. yum cha.. hope you have fun!! I put Xav's vacc off a bit too.. he got them a cpl of wks ago. Got a bit of a reaction from the measles one which was not too nice. Measles like rash on his bod for a cpl of days.. poor lil one. Hope she goes ok. 12m vacc suck.. 3 needles is too much.. poor lil bubbas. Cant wait to get the 18m one out of the way so he can have a good break. just feel like all I do is get Xav vaccinated non stop.. needles suck.
AFM - Xav and I are catching up w a friend today and I have to try to motivate myself to do yoga... been a slacker lately lol. Prob catch up w DP tonight. Off to Hbt tomorrow so xav can see his dad... not looking forward to the drive there and bk on my own. Saturday MS fest is on woot!!! Big music concert in my home town. Presets are playing so I am amped and pretty excited about seeing butterfly effect again too.. So social lately.. loving all this live music WOOHOO!!!
See ya xo

[FertileMertile]

Hey everyone! :sunshine:

It HAS been quiet in here. I was starting to think our comps had melted in the heat.

Lauren - I dont blame you for going mad in the heat. I think anything over 30 is just horrible. Glad it hasnt been unsettling Layla too much tho. Do you actually have a 'Naughty mat' or just a spot where you put her when she is naughty? I really wanna invest in one of them. Seth is a lil bugger and needs a lil more disipline. TBH I havent been suffering too bad in this heat. Everywhere I go has good a/c and we even have on in our bedroom so we have them on 24 hrs a day. Not looking forward to the power bill tho.

Meg - We are all going good. I dont think Perth is as hot as everywhere else at the moment but it has been very very humid lately and I actually think that is worse in some ways. Hows WW going? Congratz to Axel cutting his first teeth! Its so exciting when they get teeth and I think it makes them look more grown up.

Ixnay - Sorry to hear Rohan didnt have such a great first day. I cant imagine how daunting it would have been for the lil man. I would be lying tho if I said I didnt have a lil giggle when I read he bit the other kid. I was a biter when I was little so it just took me back :laughing: I think my mum just bit me back oneday and I never did it again lol Hows living with the SIL going?

Cec - Thats great news how Chels is walking so good! I have trouble walking in the sand still so I think she did a very good job :yes: I put off Seths imms for 2 months I think lol whoops. He was sick a few times and I think I just kept forgetting on top of that. Lucky he didnt react to them at all. I used emla cream for him and I think it really helps. I hate seeing him cry when he has his imms :no:

Rani - Glad you had such a great time at Prodigy! Im soooooooooo jealous! Would have loved to see them again. Hopefully they come back. I have missed out on alot of live music coz of this pregnancy but I know it will all be worth it just sucks tho lol Im glad you feel the same about KOL being number 1. At least MGMT were number 2 so I was stoked with that and presets got in the top 10 twice especially coz they are Aussie and just coz I love them!

Kirsten - Wow Ryley is 1 month old already!!!! Thats insane. Cant believe how quick thats gone. Just think he will be 4 months old when I have this baby. Doesnt seem so far away after all. Hows the new pram? Which one did you get?

AFM - Well not much been happening here lately. Just been working and shopping and lazying around on the couch and trying to stay cool. I am really lucky we have such a good a/c and I take full advantage of it. I feel so bad for you all who dont have a/c its cruel in this horrible weather. I think Seth is jumping on the teething bandwagon lately and finally cutting one of his bottom teeth. He only has the lonely 2 front ones down there so will be nice when it evens up a bit.

Hello to anyone I have missed!!

[mummy7]

Girls - What do you feed your bubs for breakfast? Xav used to love weet bix and toast but now it seems he is over it. He hates all baby cerals. Whats good????
Mel - you and I sound like peas and carrots where dance music is concerned.. cant wait to c presets.. will dance for the 2 of us :D

[FertileMertile]

Rani I love my dance music! But I also love my metal :D

I give yoghurt to Seth for brekky. He went thru a 'non eating' phase a few months back and that was the only thing he would eat! He loves it! I buy it in a big tub and give him about 200ml so I get 5 serves out of 1 tub. You just gotta make sure you get the full fat one. If he still looks hungry i will give him a banana or fruit to go with it.

Heinz also make a thing called Apple museli. He had that for ages and still has it every now and then :)

[cecandchels]

hey all.

rani - i give chels wheatbix at the mo, when i have some in the house (havent been shopping for a whie, oops). but she is getting fussy a bit too, i gave her the heinz apple museli for ages! but it goes so quickly and i seem to always be buying it so thats why i changed to wheatbix. does he eat with his hands? i sometimes cut up fruit or toast cause i find she eats it better when she feeds herself. she has gotten into the habit of spitting everything i feed her, she has a look and puts it back in. very messy and im usually not in the mood to clean it up after. ew.

mel - i agree... it was very obvious that kings of leon would win. bit boring. im so over that song!

morgan - how did rohan go at school today? it would be a massive change for him and i hope he settles in soon. is it a good school? far from ur new home?

meg - so exciting about axels toothy! they are so sharp when they are coming up, like a little puppy :) chels got the bottom two, and then they all exploded out of no where, she has a mouthful now. congrats on more weightloss, ur going awesome!!

lauren - thats so hectic that layla is a climber. i think chels will be too. she is always putting he leg up looking like she is looking for steps that arent there. im not ready for a climber - ahh! layla looks so big in ur photos now, shes like a little grown-up. so cute!

lou - where are u? hope all is well!!

:wave::wave: to all the other lovelies i have missed!

AFM - went to yum cha and it was so nice. it was with one of my best friends who is engaged to one of my dp's best friends so we are all prtty close which is good, however, her dp has gone a bit off the rails of late, tried to hook up with another friend of ours and generally has gone a bit grosse. i had to tell her about it today, cause she deserves to know iykwim. and as her best friend i thought i wouldnt wait any longer (it happened 2 w.ks ago). so that wasnt to pleasant and i hope that she is ok. i feel bad to be the bearer of bad news and i dont want to ruin what they have cause i think he just has problems that he needs to deal with. other then that i drove all over sydney (not really but it felt like it) looking for a fan for chelsea. i went to target, kmart, bunnings then finally mitre 10 and i got the last one, only because some one bought it back = lucky! righto im going to head off, cause the mann next door smokes right next to our window and makes our bedroom stink. ew ew ew.

nite all! xo

[xlouxloux]

:wave: hey ladies! sorry ive been so slack lately when Alyssa goes to bed i just cant be bothered doing anything. Shes been okay, abit unsettled last night n today saw her chomping on her finger earlier so im hoping its teething, we got her 12 month imms done this arvo (yes i know almost 2 months late..oops!) she screamed n cried and it was absolutly horrible!!! gah nearly cried myself :( poor bubba. I also got my last cervical cancer injection done yay! no more needles blerk

cec - that would have sucked having to tell ur friend that her partner nearly cheated :( musta been hard but ur a good friend for doing it! yay for getting a fan. We have 2, one in A's room and one in the lounge...lifesavers!

Rani - gah ive gone through hundreds of breakfast options! (well not hundreds..) A has just gotten bored of everything, Apple Musli, yoghurt, toast, fruit, cheerios. im about to give up hey lol let me know if u find anything!

Mel - yay for Seth getting more bottom teeth :) least u know why hes been a lil whingey now

Morgan - aww that sucks that Rohan's first day didnt go to well. i would definatly put it down to whats been going on, hes going to become a big brother/ur moving/new school cant be easy for the lil tike to deal with. hope the 2nd day was better!

Megan - yay for a toothie!! did u jump for joy? lol its so good when they finally come through isnt it. i felt like i was waiting for months! the other should be up soon, they usually come in pairs ull have to put a piccie up on fb :D

Kirsten - wow time has flown!! big 1 month old. i bet uve noticed such a change in him it spun me out how much A changed in those first weeks. been loving the pics i look at them discreatly clucking away hehe Steven and i already have a boys name picked out hehe

Lauren - :rolleyes: ner ner ner miss good toe shoes! lol major bummer about ur sunnies, id be spewing if A broke mine, it takes ages to find the perfect pair! lol so not envying u with the heat, hope ur surviving okay, comiserations about ur brain though :P heheh

Nightttttttttt xx

[mummy7]

Morning!!!

Cheers Mr Rudd 4 $950 coming our way.. wacka doo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What is every1 going to do w their lil pressie from good old Ruddo??

Thanks for the answers regarding breakfast ideas gals.
He ate his weet bix and banana today and loved it so hopefully he was just going through a fussy stage and he is over it now..:fingerscrossed:
Cec - Xav does exactly the same thing as Chels.. spitting food out and putting it back in the mouth eeeww... sometimes spitting it out and politely placing it in my hand saying "ta mum" :laughing:. Yuk.. messy business hey. Xav sometimes likes feeding himself bread sticks and little snacks but he prefers to be fed.. thinks he is a little prince lol
Mel - What brand of yoghurt do you feed seth? Xav has valia bub yoghurt but it woulb be nice to be able to buy a tub instead coz the individual ones are too small for my hungry bubba lol.
Lou - Poor bub getting her imm :no: Hope she is okay and yay 4 getting some teeth. i think Xav is getting teeth at the mo coz he is drooling lately but I dont know if its the teething or the fact that he is crawling around w his tongue out panting pretending to be a dog hmmm lol.
AFM - We are off 4 a picnic today w by bf and her nephew. Then Xav is getting his first haircut... I am scarred arrghhhhh!!!
Dp is coming over 4 a slumber party tonight.. looking forward to seeing him...:bee:
Didnt have to travel to Hobart today in the end coz Xavs grandmother is unwell and she is responsible 4 supervising xp visits so no travel today... nxt wed instead.
:wave:to ever1 else
Seeya xo

[cecandchels]

hello hello.

lauren - those real estate photos are too cute! and i think i have almost the same tv cabinet as u (yes, im a bit of a stalker on facebook, sorry).

lou - i got chels' immunisations this arvo too. weird. it was horrible. i was so nervous. and i hate that there is 3!! so glad its over tho, and she was ok. screamed for a bit but then she was ok. she was pressing were the needles had gone in on her leg this afternoon - silly girl. dr said the next one doesnt hurt as much. phew. its so much harder the older they get.

rani - xav and chels seem to be very similar, imagine if they grew up and got married... :laughing:

AFM - chels is pretty much determined to walk everywhere. she falls over heaps but she gets straight back up, shes such a trooper. i think its forcast to really heat up over the wkend, ill be joining all u brain meltdown girls in 40 degrees. going to the one day international cricket on sunday arvo. going to be so hot! il have to hit the cold beers then. not much else going down here, cept all my uni friends who graduated last yr are starting their nursing rotations tomorrow which makes me real jealous. i know ive only got one more yr, but im not looking forward to it. i wish i was just in the money already! having said that - thank god for mr rudd! woot!! i agree rani, the 2nd time ive loved being part of bloody centrelink. i think we are going to save up for a holiday to thailand for next yr. but hopefully i can steal a bit to buy clothes, mainly bras, as i havent bought any since chels was born and they are really getting a tad to big, how depressing. ha ha. well i trust u all are well.

love love!

[xlouxloux]

morningggg *bangs pots n pans* wakey wakey everyone :) hehehe
quite bored already today, mostly cos im sooo tired but cant nap cos i have a dentist appt at 11 so theres not much point.
Alyssa cried her lil eays out when i dropped her off this morning :( makes me feel so guilty! i hope it gets better soon
gotta call the landlord soon as our stupid toilet is playing up n wont really flush (so gross) and weve tried everything so now they can fix it.
Uhmm not much else might be going to mums for dinner tonight, bro is making fettucini n its meant to be real good. duno though he's started drinking again for no reason n its p!ssin me off to see him so wasted at 4pm. thank god they go home soon (Tuesday)

Rani - heheh the dog description is so cute! Glad he ate up his brekky i might have to get some weetbix. how was the picnic? and haircut? i bet he looks so cute!

Cec - yeh they were not fun at all. Alyssa kept moving just after the nurse got the needle in so she had to wait before she could squirt it in otherwise it would just go everwhere :( they fight so much more now (understandably of course!) yay for Chels walking lots she will become stedier in no time. were saving up for a holiday this yr, hopefully in July the new bonus will help nicely aswell :D

[axelandlexismum]

Afternoon all....:wave:

Well i hope everyone is ok, and not too hot (bloddy hot weather sucks)...
