Hi girls :wave:

ThoughtI'd start a new thread for us seeing as # 6 is huge!:D

:wave:

[taliistheword]

thanks cmd :yelclap:

[Lil X-men]

Thanks Linda! How are those stunning girls of yours doing, in particular the latest addition is she settling in well?

Jen - Will be nice to catch up soon, I cant imagine how grown up Tali must be by now! :smiliedance: My gf had first dibs on most of my boys clothes (sorry she just asked first) hun so I dont have much left, but I still have a few things, a couple of blankets and a few clothes so I'll bring them with me next time we catch up, you can have them!!

Because girls my first scan was wrong we are infact expecting a baby GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!:bee: The first place I went to stuffed up majorly ( I had a gender scan at a non diagnostic place) so when I went for my morph scan on Thursday I was told that bubs not boy but infact all girl!!!I was blown away with shock and called the other place to tell them and complain. They apologised profusely and re scanned me yesterday ( free of charge of course) and confirmed for me again that indeed bubba is a pink one!! SO very excited and still feels unreal right now. So much more to do, so much more to buy lol:laughing:

Pinkkisses - I am praying Zeke will "click" with the TT soon, Xavier did I tried for months with him and gave up because he just wasn'tgetting it. Then one day he decided to go to the toilet and TT fully in 3 days lmao !! He was about 2.5 when this happened so hopefully Zeke wont be far off:fingerscrossed:
You will be so busy juggling work and the kiddies especially in your job, what a noisy time you must haved kids all and all evening. NO more babies:( Awww well we all have too stop at some point dont we. We know this baby is undoubtedly our last too, I have always wanted three so I am happy with that number. Though DH wont be getting the snip just yet, he is too young ( 26) so I doubt any doc would give him a referral. But I am happy to the mirena put back in after this baby, I love the bonus of no AF with the mirena lol:smiliedance:

[Pink Kisses]

OMG Julz....I can't even begin to think how you are feeling!! I started reading your post to Jen and thought what is she thinking giving away her baby boy clothes lol!! Did they show you he 'boy' parts at the first scan?? They say you can get girl wrong before 18 weeks but after that it is pretty accurate. Wow!! Not sure what else to say. I bet you have a name picked out already!! What a story to tell when she is older hehe!

[Lil X-men]

I have looked at alot of ultrasounds ( obsessed lol) so pretty much knewwhat to look for and at the first scan she rushed so much I didnt see anything looking remotely like a scrotum or penis, but she said yep it's a boy so basically I took her word for it . She admitted when she rescanned me that she mistook the cord insertion for a scrotum. I could see clear as day at the second and third scan that it was a girl, no mistaking it I still cant believe she got it wrong first time purely because she was rushing and obviously having a bad day so wanted me in and out of there quickly and stuffed up!! I spent a week getting used to the idea of boy number 3 and feeling a wee bit sad about never having a daughter ( because this is our last without a doubt) and also spent $150 on boy clothes!!
Anyhoo it's all good now, a friend bought all my new clothes and almost all of my second hand stuff off me so I can go shopping for girls stuff soon. I bought the nursery manchester yesterday, it's GORGEOUS hehe!

[monique13]

:wave:Hi everyone - thought i better get back in and check what has been happening - guess most of us are on FB so know most of the goss!!
All is well here - school holidays are nearly over here and they haven't been too bad - the first week my 2 schoolies went to their Nan's for 3 nights so just had Ava at home and then this week DH had a job cancel so he is working at home :D
Ava's word of the week at moment is "No don't want to" - which she answers for just about everything lol!!!

Anyway hope everyone is well

[ETsMum]

Hi Ladies. Anyone remember me? :o :wave: and my princess AJ?

I bumped into Pink Kisses (Linda, Ziggy & Dash) at our kids make-up swimming lesson last month so that was a bit exciting so I thought I would re-activate my BH account and see what is going on. Congrats to all those who have gone on to have more bubba's after the July 07 bub!! :yelclap:

Anyway, I just dropped by to say hi! All is well in my part of the world.. :sunshine: hope it is in your world too!

[Pink Kisses]

Hehe it was lovely bumping into you along with Miss A and Master E! It was a total shock (the last thing I expected really) but such a pleasant surprise....thanks for approaching us! AND AJ was just too cute in her new swimmers!! I'm sure we are likely to bump into each other again.

Big hello to everyone else and I hope all toddlers are surprising you with their new 'tricks' as they grow. I nearly have a second walker at just 9 months old. Standing on his own and 'walking' between furniture. Just what I need lol!!

Anyway, take care everyone! xx

[Pink Kisses]

Anyone else keen to link up through facebook? I have added some of you and it is really nice to keep in contact with recent pics and stories!! If so, PM me I will send you my details.

x

[ETsMum]

Thanks Linda! I will. :goodvibes:

[Pink Kisses]

OMG....Just came in to see if there were any new posts and noticed that ETs Mum is expecting number 3!!! A lot of people I know are having 'number 3's'.... Congrats to you and your family! I have booked my kids into swimming on a Saturday next term....will we bump into you? Would love to have a Brissy meet-up in the new year, I missed the last one because of the stupid bank lol!

Jen and Jules....you must be close to birthing your bubs!! Best of luck girls!! xx

[Lil X-men]

Wow Congrats ETsmum on expecting number three thats fantastic, my SIL is due around the same time as you I hope you are feeling well!!:smiliedance::goodvibes:

Hi everyone been awhile hasn't it!
How are we all??

Linda- Have your two done swimming lessons before? They will love it! I have pulled mine out for summer since we are using the pool at home everyday now, but will put them back in in winter, they love it.

Things are good here, I am 32 weeks now, time has gone very fast but I know the last few weeks will drag as we are super keen to meet our baby.
Xavier starts prep the week I am due so am a bit nervous about that.
Zeke is great we have a fully TT day and night boy now here yay am loving no nappies in the house (for the next few weeks that we have left of it before I start poopy nappies all over again with a newborn:laughing:

[Pink Kisses]

Oh Jules...you would be loving the no nappy time! Z has been fully TT for about 6 months now and it is the BEST! I love that she has a little independence and that she has really turned into a little girl! As for Master D...well he is a lot like Z and was walking before 9 months and is into EVERYTHING!!! I am not a fan of the newly walking phase lol!

Z has been going swimming since 5 months but D is yet to start because of his reflux....don't think floating vomit in a public pool is a good look lol! So it will be his first term. You are very lucky to have your own pool at home. Bet that has come in handy being heavily pregnant in this heat. I din't enjoy last Christmas being 2 weeks of bubba boy being born....so am hoping for a good one this year!! THEN a first birthday...boy how time flies!!

I hope the next 8 weeks fly by for you. I was lucky to have both bubs smack bang on 38 weeks so never had to experience the overly pregnant stage....hope it is the same for you this time around. Don't forget to make your announcement....can't wait to hear your news! With Christmas everything should move along quite quickly!

Would love to hear how everyone is going......

[Lil X-men]

Wow your little one in nearly 1 OMG! Z walked early too didnt she? They dont stay babies very long do they:crying:
Yes I am not enjoying being heavily pregnant in summer. I normally dont mind the heat, but this year is overly hot ( of course it is!:rolleyes:) and I am loathing the heat atm, I am longing for some cool rainy days or even a decent thunderstorm would be nice:thumbsup: The pool is great though cools me off nicely BUT it's not really relaxing as the boys are always in with me and leap at me from all directions lol!!
I hope D goes well with his lessons, I can understand keeping him out of the pool until his reflux settled, if he is as active as you say he will no doubt love swimming lessons:thumbsup:

Will post when bubs arrives, hopefully it's sooner rather than later, anytime after 37weeks would be nice, but my boys were born 3days early and on my duedate so no doubt I'll be waiting right up until the 40week mark:rolleyes: arghhhhhh!!

[shellsbubs]

:wave:Hi everyone - it has been sooo long since I have posted in here so thought I would say a quick hi
Hope everyone had a great :tree: and looking forward to the new year.

Jules can't believe you are nearly ready to have your baby it has gone so quick!!!
Congrats also ET's mum.

All is well here - we have our house up for sale now finally after 4 years of renovations lol!!! So this next year could be an adventure for us - we will probably be moving but not sure where to hubby is keen on Tasmania - will see how we go.
Ava is growing so fast and has become a "Little Girl"" no longer my baby lol!!! My three keep me busy - sometimes they all play all lovely other times they drive me up the wall!!!!

Anyway hope to hear how everyone is :D

[mumma_jessy]

Hello lovely ladies!

Long time! I see a few of us have had more bubbies and more are expeciing, congrats to those who have/ or soon will have more little ones!

Things here have been great, Wynter is officially no longer my baby, but now my little girl. She has officially said goodbye to nappies in the daytime now too!

Settling in at our new place in the adeliade hills, and loving it!

Will hopefully be coming in more often now we are more settled, so hope to find out more about how you are all going?

Happy to be back :D

[ETsMum]

Hi Everyone!!

Thanks for the congrats!! :flowerz: I wasn't expecting that! (They tell me it is a boy... I'm still getting used to the idea - I had my money on a girl... :o)

I was just checking up on Jennie and Julie. Any day now for both of you.

Linda - we are doing swimming on Tues this year. I chose that instructor Ange - that we had for the make up lesson. The kids seemed to really like that lesson even though they never had her before, and I think E needs someone a bit tougher on him too.

I can't believe all of the TT kids. Well done!! AJ is sooooo not interested. I will push it a bit more in a month or so. I love her to be TT before Summer is over. Although, I'm not ready to give up some of her pretty pink nappies. I don't think my next boy can wear Betty Boop or flowery bling nappies. LOL!!

E had his first day at Kindy today. He was ok, I was a bit teary. I've not had my boy in care before. I'm looking forward to it though.

[Lil X-men]

MummaJessy you know I have often thought of you and wondered how you were going!!! Glad to hear all is well and Wynter is growing into a little girl nicely and TT'ng well:flowerz::goodvibes:

ETsmum - How are you going, how much longer until you are due? I saw an announcemnet on your FB page awhile back and thought you had had bub but you were announcing someone elses bub arrival lol!


Well I am now officially mum of three!:smiliedance: Scarlett is now 7weeks old (born 5 days early on the 03/02/10 6lbs 3oz and an absolute joy. Our family feels VERY complete, no more babies here and gosh it's soo busy with three I couldn't imagine coping with more! Especially timing the birth of Scarlett with Xavier's first week of school! Having a baby and HAVING to get out the door by 8am for school drop off everyday, is exhausting some days, no sleep ins if we have a bad night like back when I had all my children at home during the day....
Scarlett has reflux and has had some bad nights but is on Losec now and improving alot so fingerscrossed we catch up on some sleep now.. Speaking of which I better get to bed.

Hope all July mums and bubs are well, I think of you all often, am just swept up with my new Feb 2010 baby now lol!!

[ETsMum]

Hi Jules - I am 29 weeks. All is going ok thanks! Yeah, I'm not looking forward to getting out the door with 3 kids and having to be on time... lol... E only has kindy 2 days a week though, and I've just moved swimming lessons back a bit to give us more time.

You have some gorgeous pics on your page! I love seeing them.

[taliistheword]

hey ladies long time no talk, tali is going good become a really little miss, she is day tt and still having problems with the poo's. we welcomed our little man in to the world on the 2/02/2010 a day before julz's little girl. we named him conner james
julz we are like u and our family very complete too
after conner birth it kinda put us off having anymore.
i hope all is well and i can't believe our little bubs are now due to have there 3rd b'day they grow so quick.

[toni796]

Hello Everyone!

Just wanted to come in and wish all the July bubs a happy 3rd birthday even though no one really comes in here anymore lol.

[DQ]

WOW!!!! Tumbleweeds are blowing through this place :no: No one here for AGES :crying:

Hi guys, its me, DQ :wave:

Hope you are all well and kids are happy :highfive:

Anna and I are planning a trip up to Brissy next week (from 25th - 28th)

Just wondered whether any of the Brissy/GC mummas wanted to have a catch up, maybe dinner on the Thurs or a coffee on the Friday morning etc???

Hopefully someone sees this otherwise I will feel very rejected indeed :o

:laughing:

[Lil X-men]

Hi girls, I still venture in here once in a blue moon, fb has taken over these days, amazing how many July mums are still in contact after all these years,fb just nakes it easy to see what everyone is up to when we dont always have time to log on here and post. Firstly all congrats Kellie, yay another baby for the July group! And secondly would be awesome to see you all. I do have a busy week ahead as it is Xavs last day at school on Friday,his school concert that night And I am going to Westside Story with a gf. So will be in town on Friday evening if you girls are going to be out. Not sure how I will fare the rest of the weekend, after such a big Friday night, but hope that we might catch up :)

[Lil X-men]

May be able to wing coffee on Friday morning,depending on what time nad location, when did you have in mind?
