Thanks my birthday was fab

Dreamer gave a lovely time in Oz you lucky thing! Enjoy Gordon ramseys!
Trix thinking if you my lovely.

Picked up my loola today, as the lady was getting for me I noticed the newer loola up was in the sale same price as what I paid for the older one. The lady kindly let me swap, the main difference really is that instead of two handles it has one adjustable handle bar which I prefer so very happy babymama!
Our family's were so generous at Xmas and with my birthday I had enough left after laying for my travel system to get a cot and changer too
Feel so realy now! Can't wait to start using it all.
20 week scan Wednesday can't wait to see my lol man again!

Hi girls ... Glad everyone has a lovely Christmas ...

I'm grand, honestly... Prob better than I should be! I really think having Conor totally distracts me from feeling sorry for myself!!

Dreamer can't believe that you fly out in a couple of days..., make sure you get to a computer if your not out sunning yourself!!! Your oh was so good to you!! I got a couple if nice things, a lovely silver bracket, handbag, pjs( silk!!) slippers! 50 shades of grey and the new Bourne book! Also got makeup and smelliest and he also got me a voucher for next so I could pay of my debt and put it back on for the sale!!!

Conor had a great day ... We took a video of him coming into the living room and just looked shocked at all his pressies! Although he just wants his books and just points and says oh oh!!

Stranje it sounds like you had a busy Xmas... Hope you get to relax soon!

His... Glad you got an upgrade! Won't be long now... Time just flys, you will be asking abt sleep advice in the near future!!!!

Oh did I say future had a wee girl, saw it in one of her threads!

Thanks I'm sure I'll have a fab time. Yep they have a laptop so will be checking in can't miss the bnb news haha. I'll miss it on my phone while feeding though lol. I'll have to get reaquainted with my kindle. Looking forward to Gordon Ramsey but won't be doing that until I'm settled back at work.

Glad you had a nice xmas and birthday hispirits. Great news on the upgrade. I couldn't wait to have Erin to try her out in the pram lol. Wanted to push it around outside but thought id get weird looks with no baby haha. So exciting for your 20 week scan. It's amazing what you can see in this one compared with the 12 week, so much detail.

Trix glad you are doing well and that conor had a lovely day. Sounds like you got some nice pressies too. Soooooo pleased to her about future mama, thanks for letting us know. I left her a message, hope she pops over.

Tobaira, just wanted to wish the girls a belated happy 1st birthday! Did you do something nice? Can't believe some of the babies are turning 1! xxx

 

[trixie79]

Happy belated birthday Cassandra and heather!!! Can't believe they are one!!

Omg can't believe Conor is one in a few weeks!!

Took his morning bottle of him yesterday, and gave him ordinary milk.... Didn't go down too bad! I've bought one more tin so I'll use it for his nite bottle until it finishes and then no more formula!!! Next challenge is getting him to drink the milk outta a cup!!!! And getting him off his dummy!!!!!..... Mind you that mite take a while!!!

 

[LadyL]

Hey ladies!! Hope you all had a great holiday. And Happy New Year!!

I just popped on to tell you all that I just got a BFP!! OMG! I am still in complete shock! Hubby still doesn't believe it. He keeps saying "We'll just see what the test says in the morning." But it is def positive! I am excited and super nervous at the same time!! According to the due date calculators, I'll be due around Sept 8th.

Hope you all are well.

 

[Claire1]

Oh my gosh, congratulations Lady!!! Thats fantastic news, so pleased for you
I cant believe babies are turning 1 and now there are MORE babies on the way, I love it!

 

[StranjeGirl]

Oh my gosh Ladyl!!!!!!! Congrats!!!!!!! I can't believe it! You must be thrilled! (and nervous lol) im on my phone so will keep it short but just wanted to say a big congrats!!

 

[trixie79]

Omg I'm so excited for you lady congrats xxx

 

[LadyL]

Thank you ladies!! It still hasn't quite sunken in yet....even after 2 more positive tests!! I've been all over the place with my emotions. It's def something I wanted, so I am super happy. But then I get moments of feeling like there's no way ill be able to love this baby as much as I love jack. And that I'm cheating him out of quality time by having another so soon. But I know it will all work out how it's supposed to. And I really think they'll grow to be the best of friends. Jack has such a kind, sweet nature about him, I know he'll be a fabulous big brother!!
I'm calling the drs office in the morning to set up an appt (if they're open). I'll keep you guys posted!

Thanks again for all your support!!

 

[_dreamer_]

Congrats ladyl!! So exciting, that's great it happened so quickly for you! I'm sure jack will make an amazing big brother.

I'm in sunny Australia! And my parents have wireless so will be popping on on my phone when I'm feeding Erin to keep me occupied. Erin was an angel on the journey, didn't get a whole lot of sleep, maybe only 6 hours in 25 but the rest of the time she was so good, entertained everyone on the two planes and I sat next to lovely people on each which really helped. She's got used to my family already, she's started putting her arms up to them which is lovely, she's so tired though poor thing. Just trying to get her down to bed now. It's 7.15pm so she's done so well. Will head to bed shortly too as im exhausted. We're having an xmas day tomorrow so can't wait for that.

Hope everyone is well

 

[trixie79]

Ah dreamer I'm so jealous!!! Enjoy!
Lady did you use the cbfm this time?? Or was it just pot luck??

 

[Hispirits]

Congratulations lady! That was quick! Lol xx

 

[lilrojo]

Congrats Lady!! Im in the 2ww so i may be joining you lol

 

[_dreamer_]

Ooo good luck lilrojo.

Happy new year everyone! It's weird its already 2013 here lol

 

[LadyL]

Thanks everyone!!
Dreamer I am super jealous that you're in sunny Australia right now! It's so cold here, And it really doesn't ever get that cold here. I am ready for some sunshine and warmness again!!
Good luck lilrojo! Hopefully we can be bump buddies again!

Happy new year everyone! I keep forgetting its even a holiday since I'm working today (nye) and tomorrow (ny). I just thought about it, I was pregnant on New Years last year, and am pregnant again on New Years this year!! Kinda crazy when you think about it like that!

Oh and trixie, I did use the CBFM, but actually never got a peak this cycle. I've been trying to think of when I might've actually ovulated. And I think we BD about 4 or 5 days before I ov'd. So quite impressive that I actually got a BFP!! I really didn't think we had a shot this cycle. ( we hadn't started technically trying yet. Just supposed to be NTNP).

 

[Future Mama]

How is everyone doing? I am so sorry I haven't been on in a while, but have been super busy! I gave birth to my beautiful baby girl Maya on November 27, and she is absolutely perfect! I was induced 15 days early due to me having high blood pressure and the doctors suspecting she was growth restricted. Her last ultrasound at 37 weeks showed she was measuring small so the doctors decided it was best to deliver her. She was 5 lbs 13 oz when she was born. I can honestly say the birth wasn't as bad as I expected it to be (probably because I had an epidural). I have been really exhausted as we had some issues with her latching on, so I have been exclusively pumping and bottle feeding (which is VERY exhausting). But overall she is a pretty easy baby, and I can't believe I'm finally a mommy.

How is everyone else doing? Congrats to Hi and LadyL on your BFP's! I can't believe some of your babies are almost a year old! They are all absolutely adorable! I promise I will be on more now that we are finally getting into a routine, and thank you all for checking up on me over the past few months and Happy New Year!!

 

[Claire1]

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!!!


I hope everyone is having a fab new year.... Whatever you're doing. Love and luck for 2013 to everyone.

Great to hear from you future, congratulations.

Have a lovely time dreamer, glad Erin was good for you.

 

[trixie79]

Happy new year everyone, don't know wat is do without you lot!!!!

Congrats again future.... Well done with the pumping in sure it's hard going, the tiredness gets easier, promise, mines getting back to norm after a year!!!!!! Lol!

 

[LadyL]

Happy new year!!

Great to hear from you Futuremama! Congrats on baby Maya! I'm sure it was scary having to be induced so early, but glad everything went well. And good luck with pumping!! I also pumped and bottle fed breast milk. I did it for nearly 5 months. So feel free to ask me any questions or for any tips. I'll be glad to help. Kellymom.com had great tips on there for exclusively expressing.

Ugh. I've had to work the past 3 days (12 hr shifts), and jack was at my parents on Saturday, so I literally haven't seen him since early Sat morning. Other than to lean over his crib and give him a kiss!! He's asleep when I leave for work and he's asleep when I get home!! I miss that little booger!! We're going to have us a fun day tomorrow! And hopefully I'll be able to make my dr appr for my first scan! (They've been closed the past 2 days). I've forgotten how crazy the "not knowing if everything is ok in there" phase is.
