CD1!! anyone want to buddy up :)

I now what you mean kelly tbh, you can just feel it even when it's just a few lbs, I always feel mre like me once I'm back to 115. Nne of mine have had teeth until around 8months either, nw Cian is 7 and he barely has any left, so funny to see him! He was such a cute little boy now he's all arms and legs and toothless lol. X

 

[Kelly9]

Im not looking forward to the adult teeth. Skyler has perfect teeth right now and I mean perfect! I'm scared when his adult teeth come in that they won't stay that way.

And that's it exactly I know where the bits are I want to loose so it bugs me I'm calorie counting right now and have at home work outs to donut until my body gets used to the calorie counting again I don't have a lot of extra energy so hopefully in the next week ill be back to my daily exercise.

Isn't it awful, izzy has been suffering for months poor babas. My friend has just had a baby today it has made me broody haha xxx

 

[Kelly9]

Planning on anymore Kat? I get broody to but I do not want to be pregnant for at least another year. Want to enjoy the thinner less cumbersome me

 

[mannymoo]

I'm already broody for another but so torn between spending quality time with josh and having a small age gap between our kids. Waiting for cycle to return and then we will start thinking about number 2. How many does everyone want?

 

[mamaofthree]

Loads manny!!! But DH says this is our last lol! I have small age gaps apart from the new baby, it'll be three years between him and my youngest. My smallest gap is 15months, but that's the only time I've been able to get pregnant so quickly while breastfeeding.At the time my baby had meningitis and was in and out of hospital hence my cycles returning as I was pumping more than breastfeeding. My cycles returned 14 months pp last time I'm a baby pusher though lol, ill always say go for it! My children are a little unit it's crazy, they just don't seem to need anyone else, they're really close although they do fight a lot too.....x

 

[Kelly9]

I want three healthy kids so one more for us then I'm done. I'm also waiting for my cycle to come back I pumped a lot with my first so they came back at 3 months pp but now its been 5.5 months and nothing. I have some soy isoflavones to get them coming back if nothing by 6 months since DH and I have fertility issues.

 

[KatM83]

I think that's is for us, sometimes i think ooo maybe just one more but i kinda feel i want to just enjoy Isabel but maybe I'll see when she's one ;-) i think dh would have another. We have 2 bottom pegs fully through now looks even cheekier now! Ha Kelly your tiny anyway- if i did have another i would defo try not too put on as much weight! Hope everyone ok xx

 

[Kelly9]

I don't always feel tiny lol yesterday was a fat day! I'm just starting to get back into my exercising too which makes me feel better.

I definitely want one more. Hoping and praying it happens naturally.

Hi Ladies - how is everyone? Kat Kelly how are your little ones doing? Mamma - not long to go for you! Klemon, would love to hear how your twinnies are baking? Cath - what has happened to you? Did you go see the specialist again? Have I left anyone out?

From my side, life is hectic trying to work and look after baby. I cried when I went back to work and had another mini breakdown last week. I really dont want to be at work but it is my company and I've worked so hard over the years building it up. I am thinking about throwing in the towel and having another year at home but really need to think long and hard about that. Crazy that I started my own business to have flexibility and as it turns out, I have ended up having even less flexibility. DH is being a champion - trying to do more with Josh and has told me he would be happy to support us while I'm not working. Anyway - going to make big decisions over the next couple of weeks. At least I'm only working until 1:30 daily and then get in a few more hours in the evening but I'm exhausted already. Got flu last week (I think just from being totally worn out) so am at home today. Anyway...enough miserable mumbling from me...

Josh is nearly 5 months - where has the time gone?!?! He is so precious and such a happy little thing. Up until last night he was waking up only once a night (between 7pm and 7am - the other night he slept from 7pm to 5am, woke up for 15 mins and went back to sleep until 8am!) which has been amazing. But 2 little teeth started coming through on the weekend and last night he was up every 2 hours. Shattered today. He is now sleeping in his cot in his own room and we have changed his pram from a basinet to a big boy chair. We also started attempting solids this weekend but most of it ended up on the floor or on him. It was hilarious though. Here are a few recent pics - dont know how to turn them around?!?. I am biased but I do think he is a gorgeous little soul. His facial expressions melt my heart. We have a wonderful nanny that looks after him during the day. The two of them have such fun and he smiles from ear to ear every day when she arrives. It is also summer here now and Josh loves just lying on a blanket under the trees. Keeps him entertained for ages. We have also started swimming lessons which he adores.

We are very keen to try for number 2 but no sign of AF at the moment. I am still BFing but he does get one formula bottle a day when I am at work. I really thought because he was sleeping so well, that AF would be back by now but not.

Well done to anyone who has made it this far

Would love to hear everyone else's updates? Hope all the new mums are coping well?

xx

Manny!!

Joshua is gorgeous!!! He sounds like a great little baby aswell hun :-D

What is it that you do hun? could you not cut your hours down and train someone up to be 'you' when your not there or work from home?? it must be so hard though hun

Im good - dont ask about the specialist lol we went in August - my consultant referred me back to the NHS for my HSG as it was quite a lot private - i called his secretary last week (my consultant works both nhs and private) basically was told by her that it doesnt matter that iv seen him private I will still need a first apt on the NHS before having my HSG so im going to have an apt with him on the 5th which all he will do is refer me AGAIN and im wasting an apt that could go to someone else ggrrrrrrrrrr!!

How is everyone?? xxxxxxx

 

[Kelly9]

Cath that's frustrating! Sometimes I hate the system.

Manny he is soooo cute! Love the last pic!

Lexi is doing well she was 7 months yesterday! And I also still don't have my period back but as much as I want to ttc naturally I've decided af can stay away till feb as we're going to Disney world and on a 14 night Caribbean cruise and I don't want her around for that. Lexi is crawling now has been for a week or two she still smiles tons and has learned a new way to laugh just yesterday kind of a squeal and a laugh at the same time. It's adorable.

Skyler is 3 now and into everything and talking all the time and being a boy.

 

[cathgibbs]

Awwww Kelly she is gorgeous!! she looks wicked!!!!!! ooohhhhhh your cruise sounds fab! when are you going on that you lucky thing?! xxx

 

[Kelly9]

We leave Jan 6th for disney world for about a week then head on our cruise Jan 12. I'm super excited Lexi is a delight! Something I hope that never changes, if she turns into Skyler I'll loose my mind lol.

Hi girlies!!!!!!

Sorry I haven't posted much, am completing my diploma in breastfeeding counselling, two assignments to go, plus have a music theory exam ( am attempting grade 7 flute, don't ask me why, it's not like I have the time lol) that and growing a small person means one very grumpy mummy

Manny and Kelly those are two very scrumptious babies and I want mine to hurry up, lol. They both seem to be doing amazingly. Hope you are well too.

Kat, klemon I hope you are well too.

Cath that sucks! What a waste of time having to be re referred through NHS!!!! But at least you have one plans in place and DRs are listening. Any more plans for the wedding? Hope your DF is coping with it all too.

Afm, my birth pool arrived yest!!!! Yeayyyyyyy, almost 37 weeks and hoping his one comes early like the others

Xxx

 

[mamaofthree]

Ooh Kelly, Disney and a cruise!!!! You totally deserve it so exciting. We need lots of pics x

 

[Kelly9]

There will be lots of pics! Just need jan to get here.

So had some pinky brown spotting last night thought af would show this am but nothing yet. I guess it could have been ovulation spotting. I'll have to wait it out. Felt crampy to so really thought af was making her appearance. I'm tired of waiting for her.

 

[mamaofthree]

Awwwww Kelly, I can empathise! Mine took over a year to return with my last baby spotting is a good sign you could be fertile though definitely maybe she'll be back in a couple of weeks. X

 

[Kelly9]

I don't care if she shows now or later just wish I didn't need to panty watch. It's annoying.

I'm cramping again but no more spotting.

 

[mamaofthree]

Hey girlies,

My boy arrived last night will post pics when I'm rested xxx
