Hi ladies.
I went for my job interview today. Everything went great and I should get the call for my second interview on Tuesday. I also go to doc Tuesday and I'm praying he releases me. DH called child support services and they dropped the amount to $65 per month but with the administrative fees it will be around $80 per month. That's a lot better than $56 per week. DH works part-time and I went for a full-time job interview so if I get the job DH can stay home with Marissa.

Ashy ~ Honey, don't feel bad I had the hardest time with BFing then one day it's like a light bulb clicked over Marissa's head and she realized what the boob was for. Don't give up, hang in there.

Han ~ omg hun 11 days??? I can't believe it's been that long & yes, we all miss you sweetie. So glad you get out of there 2maro.

Mandy ~ So happy you are home with princess Layla!!!

Lyndsey ~ We are having beautiful weather too & I love taking Marissa for walks. Enjoy the beautiful weather. And, yes it seems the people that don't deserve it get all of the extras from the government and us that do get the shaft. We are thinking about getting a lawyer and fighting all of the back pay child support.

Everyone else ~

Does anyone know how long after birth we are suppose to bleed???? and another question...Does anyone know if we can use sunscreen on a newborn??? If not, how are we suppose to take them outside???

I was wondering about the sun screen thing too, it's another beautiful day here. Cooper has his first party to go to tonight. His godmommy was 30 yesterday so there's a party tonight.

Chas keeping my fingers crossed for you. I feel so sad for you that you have to go back to work but at least daddy can be with marissa.

Happy going home day to hannah and ava!

And girls, loving all your pictures on facebook. No wonder April babies are beautiful, makes sense now I know what a lot of you look like!

LOL Lyndsey you facebook stalker!! Only joking hun, I have been having a nosy as well!

Happy coming home day to Hannah and Ava!! Cant wait to see more piccies!

Chas, Im not sure how long you are meant to bleed for, I havnt bled for about 3/4days now so I am hoping mine has stopped now.

Rach - Thats pants about your pram, gutted is the word!

Lovely weather here today, lets hope it stays like that all weekend!!

I soooo wanna be here........im gona be a may mummy now...how does it feel to be mums? x

 

[mellllly]

Hi Sapphire!!! Aww hun, April babies are lazy!!!
Its great to be a mummy, very tiring but well worth it, your whole life changes! I have no idea what I used to do before Sophie came along haha!
How are you?

 

[lyndsey3010]

The weirdest thing is even though Coop has only been here for 10 days, it feels like he has been here forever. Being a mum is great, although I'll let you know if I still feel that way on Wednesday once OH is back at work and I'm flying solo!

Come on baby Miller, we're all waiting for you! Is it just you and Janis left Sapphire? I saw that Janis is making progress and is set for induction on Monday if she doesn't go naturally before then. Have you got a sweep booked?

Mellly - hell yeah to the stalking!! Its how me and OH got together in the first place

 

[mz_jackie86]

Hey girly girls! How we all doing today!

Had the health visitor in today, she said not to put Arianna back down to 3oz but if she is takin 4 oz and finishin the bottle then give her more cos u never no if she is still hungry if she finishes it! So i gave her more and she took it lol! So the other midwife was WRONG!!! tut tut!!!

Whats everyones plans for today? Im really feeling to go back to sleep as Arianna is sleepin now lol!! xx

Jac - got to love the conflicting advice. I just work on he theory if he's hungry, feed him.

 

[mz_jackie86]

Thats exactly what i thought, she was a small baby so it dnt matter if she puts on some pounds, or oz! But then that midwife the other day made me think i shudnt...be sod it ill do it my way and the health visitor agrees so tis all good llol!! x

 

[mummy to be]

Chas - i was wondering the same thing about how long we are ment to bleed for... how is everyone going with that?

Is anyone else back onto contraseptive??? (spellin???) I have gone onto the mini pill - starting it the tuesday after having Layla...

hehehehe we still have Allans mum here and she is awesome!!! She has been doing all the cooking, cleaning, washing, ironing everything... even takes Layla off our hands so that we can sleep in and catch up on some sleep! It is so great having her here!!!! She is amazing and i love her soooooo much!! We bought her some gold earings and a braclet that has i love grandma on it

Hope everyones bubbies are being good... Layla is up in her bed now but i can hear her starting to cry so i best go check on her... i thought she was asleep

 

[mummy to be]

ohhh also wanted to know if anyone ummmmm is ummmm having or wants it yet????

 

[QueenMummyToBe]

Thanks ladies you are all such a support for me!! Amelia is feeding 100ml every 3 hours now.. I'd say she is going through a growth spurt bless my little Shark Fin But it is good because every time she feeds I express so I get most of my expressions in

I'm feeling lots better today about everything.. OH is helping more at nights and Amelia keeps going 5/6 hours at night between feeds.

Hugs to you all

Us mummies rock!!!

xXx

ladies not sure where I belong now, i should have been an April mummy (Due the 23rd April) but baby Oscar decided he wanted to wait half hour into May, cant believe how well I feel considering he was only born yday He was a whopper 10lb 2 but by far the easiest labour and birth ive had, he pushed himself out lol, sure a few more nights of getting little sleep and it will start catching up with me, Am off to babies r us in a mo to get some teats, i got Avent ones but he's struggling with them and sucking in lots of Air so gonna have to try some different ones before he gives himself colic! weird coming onto the baby and toddler boards, just need to decided if i'm a April or May Mummy xxx

 

[Dani_b]
