Knocked Up Naughties

Mjt, hope it all works out, I haven't had any experience with this, but hopefully everything will be okay. We are here for you either way!:hugs::hugs:
 
aww ReaRea and AnnaMaria you both must be still on :cloud9: it's good you still pop in!

MJT i've not been through what you are but i'm thinking of you keep us up dated hun.

Beth how the puppies doing i think going on your facebook status and here both the pups and Callum are giving you the run about, fingers crossed about the pups being reserved chick, How's the night going now long until your mat leave starts,

Blondie and Cailenc I'm so glad both evictions are in full swing i wish my MW would do a internal as i have no idea how far i am along and it's really starting to take it's toll :cry:

Freyasmum: yay you on the results!!

To all you ladies out there :hugs:

Well the George eviction is in full swing now, DH has returned from his mum's so at 2am on tuesday morning we did the dreaded BDing and it wasn't that bad i honestly can say i through i had become a virgin again after 8 months of not doing it at all, DH is all smiles now, and i think we need to go again at the weekend (i think my hips will be able to take it then lol)
I'm also taking RLT,clary sage baths, pineapple, and good old fashion get on your hands and knees and polish the floor (my gran use to swear by it) i'm also at week 38 going to start nipple stimulation, i think at this point i will be willing to BD every day just to get little one out, I have asked my Doctor if it's ok and he advises if i'm willing to take the stronger contractions then i can. so fingers crossed i wont have to.

Georges room is now finshed so i have started in the hallway now with painting and will conti like this until the big day.

I so love cleaning tho i know us OCD suffers normaly do but this is a different feeling

DH also came back with reassurance with all the question i have for MIL so finger crossed she will keep to her word and not interfear.

well i'm off to gloss now

Caitlenc and Blondie how are you feeling i can honestly say i'm shitting it now honestly i am i read a thread this morning about stretching you lady bits so to avoid tearing and i cried. you would never of throught i have already done this :haha:
 
Haha, Tori, I am actually feeling pretty calm...probably because I don't know what I am in for!:haha: Most people I know say the second time is harder because you know how awful it's going to be.:shrug:

I just really want baby to come soon, I can't wait to see it, and to not be pregnant anymore.

Here's a question for all of you Naughties: Are you planning on BFing or FFing your little ones? Why or why not?:flower:
 
im going to try BFing but wont be upset if it doesnt work out and end up FFing.

think BF will be easier for me with the animals, i wont have to worry about disterbing them during the night.

i ve got my mum and dad coming round on sat to put some decking down in the cat runs so i can evict more cats outside, at the mo its on concrete and the floor gets so dirty and slippy.

i ve got 3 more weeks at work left now, but its actually only 7 1/2 shifts. im on nights next week so after them i'll be down to just 3 1/2 shifts. :happydance:

my sis is coming round tom to finish the drawings on the nursery wall, so hopefully i should beable to get some pics on here soon for you all to see.
 
Caitlenc i'm planningon BFing, the reasons for this is the whole bonding part of the process,

DD took to much to BFing and it resulted in her feeding for 9 hours a day this is because the stupid MW told me it was wrong to have a dummy. three weeks later and my mum put her foot down and give her a dummy this stopped DD wanting to feed all the time but by which time i could hardly bare for my nipples to touch water let alone have her feed so she went onto FF.

So this time i will have a dummy for Geroge and fingers crossed i will last longer than before.

are you still unsure hun? either way has it's pro's and cons i think.
 
i will be Bf'ing. i must admit that it did take up a LOT of my time. when i had dd she was feeding for at least an hour, every 2 hours and at night time she was usually attached to the breast all evening until bed time. its hard work but i stuck it out for a whole year but after about 4 months she had some formula feeds too.

i'm not expecting to be able to do it for so long this time because i feel it would be unfair on dd because of how much time it takes up and i would never have any time for her at all. i will be happy if i can manage 3 months but i will combine with FF'ing if needed.
 
I will definitely have a go at BFing. Freya latched on well, and we had no trouble with feeding... except that she had some problem with breaking down protein from dairy products and ended up in hospital!
I had to give up all dairy products, which just proved too difficult for me. :( Freya had to go onto a special formula that had all milk protein already broken down. I guess we lasted close to 3 months.

(she's fine now - practically lives on milk and cheese!!)

I'm working from home again today. Had to come home early yesterday because I had a wicked headache, and the lights were so hard on my eyes. Feeling better today but my eyes are still sore.
Have to take Freya for her 4 yr old jabs today. Not really looking forward to it at all. Hopefully she'll be OK. I'm sure she will - as soon as she gets the lollipop afterwards!
 
well ladies i spoke to the docs office and they said that my hcg is still rising but my progestrone is still low.. so ive got the pills to take for it... and im guessing everything "should" be ok or at least i hope... i have my first ultrasound tommrow in the am... cant wait and hopeing to see everythings ok!!
 
I'm still unsure...I took a breast feeding class, and I'm going to try it, but I'm just not sure how I feel about it. I love the idea of DH being able to give feedings also, and I will be going back to work after 12 weeks, so we'll see how it goes...:shrug:
 
I'll be back at work around then too, Caitlen. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to stay home longer?
If we're successful with BF, I'll need to work on switching to formula before going back to work - just don't fancy expressing there!!

When Freya was sick as a baby (about 3 weeks) the hospital were feeding her my expressed milk thru a wee bottle. I think that really helped with getting her to switch later. We quite happily did both for weeks - I'd BF, then top up with a bottle if she was still hungry. I think my milk production went a bit haywire with the expressing and stuff.

It is great when the dad can get involved with feeding too. I think it helps them to bond a bit more. There is so much pressure on us to BF and I think it can make people feel like they've failed if they can't do it. Realistically though, not everyone will be able to.

I was bottle fed, and I'm OK. :)
 
gosh, cant believe you have to go back after 12 weeks, i was upset i might only get 6 months instead of 9 like i originally hoped.
 
think i will be going back to my part time bar job after about 6 months but thats only if pudding is sleeping through the night. i gave up my full time job after having DD because when DH and i sat down and went through the nursery costs it worked out that we would only be £100 a month better off if i did go back to work. we both decided that for the sake of £100 it was better that i give up work and keep DD with me. i don't think i will be going back to full time work until pudding is at least 2 and a half. i do miss that "adult time" that you get from working though. it can get a bit lonely at times.

no counting down to mat leave for me but i do remember how exciting it was ticking off the days when i was waiting to finish to have DD. i hope the time flys for you girls who are waiting to finish work.
 
I intend to BF - feel I might aswell try it but if it doesn't work out then at least I can say I tried :)

Tori - stretching lady bits - I've been trying to do this whilst I've been in the bath everynight and ouch (but then again I've not had :sex: since we got pregnant :rofl: ) - the part I am most worried about is how on earth I'm going to fit a baby through there :wacko: - I might have another try massaging with evening primrose oil later when I go to bed - DH is away overnight in leeds at a morrissey gig so I can do these things without being too embarrassed tonight :rofl:

Just been looking at the first proofs of the maternity shots my sister did for me and there are some gorgeous ones but I want to get her permission to post them before I do but I'm so excited about them :happydance:
 
Mjt, that is great news!! :happydance: Hopefully your scan will go well, can't wait to hear all about it!:hugs:

Yeah, 12 weeks isn't nearly long enough...I am going to try to take a leave of absence next year, so hopefully will get a year in with the seahorse before sending it to daycare...my mom is watching the baby when I go back in March, since I will be off for summer holiday at the end of June, so it's only a few months.:cry: I think leabving my LO, even just with my mom, is gonna be awful.

Blondie, can't wait to see the maternity pics!!:happydance: I'm sure your sis will let you post them, it is free advertising, after all!

Well, after today, I have only 13 days of school left before mat leave, since I have to take a day off for DH's greencard interview on the 9th, and we have a federal holiday on the 11th!:happydance:
 
I'm doing both. Mostly BF but sometimes I give her bottle. I love the fact she takes both cause that gives me more freedom.
Caitlen - 12 weeks:wacko: That's like 3 months. That's so crazy. What are you doing with baby while you are at work? We can be home with kids for 3 years and even then most of mothers have problems sending their kids to nursery but 12 weeks:wacko:.
 
Blondie the mear fact you put ouch and the streching part in one sentence has made my mine up i'm not goign to do it lol

Caitlenc 13 days to go whoo hoo then you can join the afternoon sleep club! only 13 weeks mat leave tho i'm the same as beth i cried when DH said i may need to go back afte the 9 months as the remaining 3 months is unpaid. but i will see when the time come i think

Flowertot, I think SAHM deserve a medal i really do as you tend not to have so much "adult time" and still look sane,

Well after yesterdays energy burst i can hardly keep my eyes open now, but my brain is in over time any one else like this?
But apart from that not much is happening George is now head down as i can feel him when i walk about it's like he's going to fall out.
ohh Caitlenc and blondie do you find your hips are in pain when you lay on them to go to sleep or is this my SPD showing it's ugly head again?
 
Just to let you know that i wont be online for a week or so as me and OH move into our new house on sunday
