OMG lady, that has gone super fast! Wishin you all the best for friday I'll keep checking for baby news!
Tixi and Lilrojo your nearly half way too. Good luck on the scans!

Stranje, I'm sorry that Giada isn't sleeping well. How are you finding it with her being in her own room? Im sure that Giada is fine. I think you said befoe that your doctor wasn't concerned so thats a good thing. I'm sure she'll d it all in her own time.

Hope everyone else is well x

Been thinking of you today LadyL, hope all is going well with baby Reid! Can't believe the first of the second round of bubbas is going to be here after today, only seems like a few months ago it was all the firsts turns lol.

Erin is doing well although the terrible two's are hitting early. 'No' features heavily and she is so stubborn and dependent, with tantrums happening quite frequently. God it's hard work! She's a delight in between though lol. Weighed her yesterday and she's 25lb1oz (11.4kg) right on the 75th centile where she's been all along so that's good. Doing it took me back to last year when I was weighing her every month.

Work has been even more crazy manic. I went away for work this week, left Wednesday at 5am and didn't get back until 9pm on Thurs and this weeks even worse, leaving 7am on Tuesday and back on Friday late I'm struggling. Just trying to focus on the fact its a well paid job and we are appreciating the money at the moment. I've been working at least an extra 8, up to 14 hours a week (no extra pay as I'm salaried) - we've put forward a case to get some extra resource as it can't go on like this.

Love reading all the updates but have a new phone i'm getting used to and it takes forever for me to type at the moment haha.

Trix - only a few more days til you find out now!! Eeek.

Stranj, sorry to hear you're worried again. If it's something that's really playing on your mind can you get her checked out again to reassure you either way? Erin's speech is really advanced for her age so I wouldn't compare here, but plenty of her nursery friends speech sounds like Giada's or with just a handful of words. How did you find moving her into her own room? Do you miss her or appreciate your own space back again? A bit of both probably.

Hope you're all having a nice weekend, whats everyone up to? x

 

[Hispirits]

Hope everything went well lady!!!

Strang sorry about giada and your worries. It has been on you mind a long time now, perhaps for peace of mind and some answers you should inquire. It must be driving you insane with worry all the time.

My little lump is doing well. Started rolling,sleeps thru, still teething, nothing's popped yet. But he's so content still. I feel truly blessed. 4months old tomorrow!
Can't believe it. He is so forward, always wriggling and moving, I feel like my tiny cuddly baby phase didn't last long enough. I miss him cuddling up for his bottle, and laying asleep on my chest, trying to get him to have his bottle is a nightmare. He's always moving. I started weaning last week because he's dropped 10oz a day and only having about 23oz now. I think he's ready for it because he opens his mouth for the spoon and slurps the purée off of it.
We had him christened last Sunday. He was a Jem all day!

It feels like a blink ago I was 20 weeks and finding out trix. Well
The get bubba out early if ur spd gets too bad?

Lilmiss , I hope your ok after your mc. Thinking of you xx

 

[LadyL]

Hey everyone! Well, Reid arrived Friday morning at 7:25am. He weighed 8 lb 3 oz and is 21 inches long!! He is doing great and is nursing like a champ! I'm doing well too. Recovery from this c/s has been much easier so far than the first time. We are still in the hospital and sould go home some time tomorrow (Sunday). Oh, and Jack is really doing pretty well with being a big brother so far.

Well, I tried uploading a few pics but it won't work on my iPad. I'll have to wait till I get home on my computer.

 

[_dreamer_]

Awww fab news lady glad its all gone smoothly and reid is here safely. Look forward to seeing pics. Congratulations!!

Hi, glad to hear that your little man is doing so well and such a good little boy for you xx

 

[trixie79]

Ah congrats Hun I'm sure he is gorg!!! Reid is such a lovely name!

Stranje, you have worried abt autism from really early on.... Speech can be an isolated problem, I don't refer a child until I hear the weird stuff....I.e today I referred a 3 year old with delayed speech, but also is socially inept, smells Tarmac on the driveway, lines up the shoes in the hall and any speech that she has is in an accent .... There was loads more..... I also referred boy today with just delayed speech, he was 2 last week and has zero words, not even mama! I just referred him for speech and language input.

All children are so different, I'm referring a lot very day.... Usually the speech ones I order an audiology test too to rule out hearing?? Maybe you should try that first???

I think I said before by brother didn't talk till he was 7 and he's fine! Conor is now saying daise for daisy the dog, dad and oh oh and da for yes but he motions/points at things that he wants and is getting frustrated now that I don't have a clue way he wants!!!!
His understanding is excellent though and knows everything, so I'm not worrying yet!!!
Hope that makes sense???? If your really concerned call your dr and get her checked over.... Xxx

 

[Hispirits]

Congratulations lady

Strang have you thought a out a sing and sign group, so she can signal words? Just an idea. X

 

[Future Mama]

Congratulations on baby Reid LadyL! Hope you both are doing well!! Look forward to seeing some pictures!

Stranje I know its so hard not to worry when you feel something is wrong with your child. I'm sure she is fine, like Trixie said speech can be an isolated problem. I have 2 cousins who didn't start talking until after their 2nd birthday and both are perfectly healthy. If you haven't already, maybe you should take her to get checked out just for your own peace of mind.

Afm.....I just found out yesterday that I'm pregnant again! We were ntnp starting this past month since we thought it would take a while again, but I guess not! So I'm 5 weeks, due May 11th. I was actually a little sad that Maya is going to have to share our attention when the new baby comes but I guess that's just my hormones making me crazy So I go in Monday for my first ultrasound, I can't believe we're doing this all over again so soon!!!

 

[trixie79]

Oh my goodness congrats future I'm so pleased for you... I felt that way too, but everyone says its normal to feel like that! I'm more excited now for Conor than anything!

I had my big scan and alls well... Couldn't see the sex as the legs wer tucked under so ill have to wait till my next scan on the 24 th!!!

 

[lilrojo]

Aww sorry Trixie.. hope you can see next time..

Congrats future.. normal to be nervous at first.. it will all go great..

Lady congrats on the lo.. happy it went well

 

[_dreamer_]

Sooooo pleased for you future and so great that you were able to conceive so quickly after it took so long before!!! I always say what's meant to be will be, they will be so close in age it will be lovely when they are a bit older.

Trix, im glad everything is good, sorry you couldn't get to find out tye sex, hopefully baby performs in your next scan! X

 

[Hispirits]

Congrats future!!! Such a mix of emotions!
I no what u mean tho. I'm Petrified of having another.i waited so long for frazer, he's so special. I don't know if I could love another baby the way I love him. I'm frightened also if I had another then I couldn't give frazer all the love and attention he has now. But he's growing up so fast, I miss my tiny little helpless newborn baby, Frazers a dream but he wants to grow up do quick! He do advanced I've never known anything like it.
I blame all the vitamins I took and fruit I ate when I was pregnant lol.

Trix good luck for you next scan.

Xxxx

 

[Claire1]

Congratulations Lady, I hope you're all well and enjoying your new addition to the family.

Wow Future, thats great!! I hope you're feeling well Wonderful news!

Are you having another scan Trixie? Hope you can find out. Do have a feeling what you might be having?

 

[Future Mama]

Went in for an ultrasound Monday and only saw a gestational sac. I was only 5+2 (I think as I wasn't keeping track of ovulation) so hopefully it was just too early to see anything else. Going back in a week for follow up ultrasound. Hope everyone is doing well!

 

[trixie79]

Good luck future.... I didn't get anything till 6.5 weeks!

I think it's a girl but as I said James is convinced it's a boy and he is never wrong!!!!! Getting a little movement now which is lovely!

V day on Monday..... Whoo hoo!

Have consultant on tue and I'm not leaving till I know the sex!

Had a weird vivid dream last note that I gave birth early but baby was fine... I'm thinking a lot abt he triplets these days so that was prob on my mind!

 

[trixie79]

V day today!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[_dreamer_]

[_dreamer_]

Congrats on v day trix! Look forward to hearing the result of your scan tomorrow!

Hope all is fine future and like you said its just too early to see yet.

Hispirits, so great that frazer is such a good boy.

Erin is so funny now, a proper little character. She has turned into a daddy's girl recently and I think it's because im travelling so much withwork which makes me so sad but its nice fir him to experience that as she waa a proper mummys girl for the first 1.5yrs. Shes started being a bit naughty with hitting me ir pulling my hair rhen when I say no we dont hit, or ita not nice to pull hair...she does it again. We've been removing her then, how di you guys handle it?
