Melainey your post earlier with all the swearing in it alerted my Internet security access denied thing!! We have settings on our Internet as its owned by the bible college so it prevents access to porn sites & sites with certain words in it!! Haha.

Night all! It's taken me the first hour of my shift to catch up reading

LLPM - WHOOOPEEEE! Sooo excited for you. Will you wait a couple of weeks for the dating scan so you can see the heartbeat, or go in ASAP? How did DH react?

Lisa - re: the age gap, I don't think it's such a big deal. There is 7 years between my two kids and they couldn't be closer. They never had a fight because they didn't share friends, toys, etc because of the age gap. But they totally have each other's backs.

2woohoo - boys are great aren't they? I must admit I was a little shocked when I found out that my #2 would be a girl, as I'd applied to adopt another boy as I had such a great time parenting DS. I am so NOT a girly-girl.

Mum2Q - are you getting referred just to a gyno or to a fertility specialist? I'd be trying to get that referral letter ASAP in case the wait is 2 months like our specialist

Kiwi - gosh those services are cheap! The 'starter' costs at our FS are:
Appointment - $180 approx $72 back from Medicare
IUI $1800 – after Medicare rebate you are out of pocket $1255
IVF $6653 per cycle – out of pocket $1,535 to 1,984 first cycle. Second and subsequent cycles also cosst $6,653 with $1065 – $2,025 out of pocket.
Private health care (if you have it) generally covers only a very small amount of 'in hospital' costs relating to IVF.

Everyone else - nightly night, sleep tight, don't let the bed bug (or the witchey-poo) bite!

 

[Maddy40]

P.S. so excited, am off to visit my 21yo son tomorrow. He has been out of home working in Qld for the past year and I've only seen him twice - once at Xmas/New Year when he visited for 2 weeks and again for a weekend in May at my Mum's 60th. DH is away and daughter is at school camp so I will have son All To Myself. Selfish Mummy!

Edited to add: Night shift & credit card do not mix. Just ordered Pre-seed and Softcups online from the US. Preseed from the US is quite a bit cheaper than in Aust plus there was a free postage deal.

You should probably reply to her abusive message with "gosh, that's extremely inappropriate, isn't it!". Oh, and copy the boss in.

Absolutely, I agree. Totally inappropriate on her behalf and you should take it further.

 

[Newbie32]

Thanks girls xxx

Ooooh number2 nice little spike this am!!!! Did you today? I reckon you're bfp number2!!!!

And kiwi please test tomorrow morning!!! You have got to be duffers!!

 

[kiwipauagirl]

Maddy: glad u get to see Ur son. U must miss him

LLPM: still delighted about Ur news I have actually been thinking of u all day

Newbie: hope today is a better day for u

Angel: how's life at the inlaws going?

Everyone else: a very big good morning up u all

I am up here now in Belfast. Off tomorrow to see murals etc and titanic museum. Tonight at dinner I went to bathroom and small dark pink tinge was on the paper. I think I might get AF tomorrow. My friend and are sharing a bed (lol) so will put in a tampon and see what happens tomorrow. Today I am day 28 and still too nervous to test. Plus have no tests with me. My heart is sinking a little especially after the toilet paper incident. Weather u believe or not please pray AF stays away x

Have a great day girls xx

 

[Abby27]

that is awesome. Thanks so much for that! yeah, probably not worth it for us to claim FTB for him. good to know that him paying child support means that we can get more for our children when it is deducted from his wage. it all seems so simple when someone tells you all the information!

What is the first starting point to get the ball rolling on all of this (would it be to visit the family assistance office?), and when do we need to do it? is it an after birth thing, or do we need to organise it before baby comes along?

Happy to help! its done after the baby is born, and sort of depends on the time of year. If you can time it perfectly at the begining of the financial year then yaay. Otherwise you have to consider your income earned up until that point, and then including the paid parental leave which is a taxable income. So ideally having a baby 18 weeks before the end of the financial year is what you want....then 18 weeks paid parental leave and then a low estimate for the following financial year to get max FTB. Online is probably the best option once the baby is born

I have everything crossed kiwi xx

Maddy, how exciting about seeing your son! Enjoy your time

Impressive spike happening there! Go pee on things

 

[Mum 2 Quigley]

Morning dufferinos!!

Nana so sorry about that girl! Just be the bigger person & when it comes to it, the boss will see the maturity level & know how they want to hire. Thinking of you, vent here to make sure you keep your cool with her!

Maddy, he said gyno, so not sure if they are fertility specialist or not. I'm assuming I should be asking to go to fs instead???

Kiwi, hope the witch stays away!!!!

Number 2, your chart is very stalkable today!!!

Abby, are you able to get your estimate online and change your details later? Just wondering how to figure out if it's more affordable to work full time/part time/ stay home?

Edit: maddy soak up your son!!!

 

[Lisasmith]

Nana, email the bitch back bcc your boss in. Be very composed and polite. What a little c word she is! I wish I could smack her down on your behalf.
