I LOVED being in labour with Rueben because they started off very mild but didnt like the last bit as i was druged up so much. With Lucas omg the pain for the 1st bloody hurt but i loved it and it was so fast i was only alowd in the hospitall when they where every 2 min but they was coming evr 45sec and lasting 1min when i went in then 6 hrs latr out he came the 2hrs after i was sat here telling all of you he was here.

Molly~ Lucas really dosnt like sweet things tryed him agane and nope turnd his head at them. he loves cheesy things and he had chicken yesterday very strang pureeing chicken. He is now on 2 soops of oats in a morning and 3 ice cubes of food for dinner and tea he allso has a bottal after each meal. I gave him a pancake yesterday and he ate the lot also he pinched a chip from rueben and ate it. So he isnt doing to bad but i couldnt handle not knowing what food he was eating and wasnt.

Boothh - I am really into the M&P stuff having played with so many pushchairs now. I think its their Duette which I thought was really clever, you could have the babies facing each other which I thought very charming! ICandy Peach is a lovely buggy and good for having as a single now then converting later but at £500 just for the single with no accessories or cot it'll blow most budgets out of the water! In hindsight I wouldn't have brought my Graco, I'd probably have bought the Ultima or Switch to start with but how were we to know what we needed? I anticipated spending a lot more time in the countryside than we actually do, I didn't realise how precious shopping space would be, I had no idea what it would be like taking buggies on the tube, I wasn't interested in a cot as I was given a moses and initially I just wanted something hardwearing, lasting but cheap. The Graco suited my needs as far as I could anticipate and was really cheap but since having her everything is different lol! TBH, my only big expense has been pushchairs and I shouldn't lose too much selling them on. The woman I bought the new buggies off has several and a deal going on with her husband - she can buy whatever she wants as long as she sells one for every one she buys, hehe!

TMR - so many baby food books go on about sweet stuff being more appealing, its lovely to hear Lucas has a savoury taste! If he doesn't get a sweet tooth I would suppose that would be better for his teeth and health? I'm hoping not to encourage a sweet tooth for JP despite the best efforts of my family to feed her chocolate!

On the subject of labour chat, has anyone noticed the advert banner for lawyers to sue for 3rd degree tearing?! What will they think of next?!!!

And finally, I just wanted to share this hilarious ebay item with you. I think the seller needs to get a new translation dictionary. Read right through to the end, there are more hilarious and some embarassing mis-translations. Some cute colours though. https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NEW-3-in-1-TRAVEL-SYSTEM-IN-52-COLOURS-free_W0QQitemZ190372838473QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Baby_BabyTravel_Pushchairs_GL?hash=item2c531afc49

thats ridiculous, i had a real bad tear, the cord was wrapped around jesses neck so the midwife just wrenched him out and pretty much ripped me apart, well id rather have a bad tear and a healthy baby if you get what i mean, if people start sueing for that the midwives will get too scared to do it and it will put babies lives at risk!!! all i cared about was getting jesse out safe and if it took me to be ripped apart to do that then so what!

 

[Pippin]

Can you believe it she is still in labour, she's going for my record of 54 hours!!!! I haven't heard from her in a while so I hope she's in the final throws.

Glad you can come MollyApple. xxx

 

[spidey]

thats crazy about suing for a 3rd degree tear- jeesh!

I liked being in labor too which does sound really crazy. I was supposed to deliver at a birth center but became high risk since Kira's heart rate was over 180. So I had an ambulance ride to the hospital while 8cm! I've got some funny memories from it all. I'm still proud that I had her drug free- and didn't even threaten to hurt anyone or scream at DH

 

[Vici]

Very quickly gals as i'm at the in laws, but i'll hopefully be able to make the meet Good to have a proper catch up as i've hardly had a chance to speak with you all xxx

well jesse has finally decided that he wants to roll now, he has done it a couple of times but never shown much interest, well today and yesterday he hasnt stopped, he finds it easier to roll from front to back but he has done back to front a couple of times, instead of trying to crawl to stuff like he used to, hes learnt to shuffle around and roll to it, then shuffle back around so he can play with it properly, its soo funny to watch him,

he was weighed and measured yesterday, 20lbs 6oz, and 27inches just about exactly,

he is still dead on the 91st centile for weight and i havnt measure him since he was born, its the first time theyve had the measure thing out, hes on the 75th centile for height, my little fatty, i envy some of you girls with light babies jesse breaks your arm when you carry him now! xx

Oh and my friend had her little girl, eventually. Still haven't spoken to her but had a couple of texts. I am so broody and jealous of her it's unbelievable. Everything must be ok as she is home now just over a day and a half in hospital. Is it wrong I want to know all the gory details? There was time I just said 'how nice' and got on with my own life

 

[Boothh]

haha well he went to ask my dad permission after work on friday and i was sat at home like wtf whys he two hours late really annoyed haha,
then i said shall we go out for something to eat so we just went to the trafford center and went to t.g.i fridays, nothing out of the ordinary then we walked back to the car and i got in n he just stood there and i said something like 'dont piss about now im cold get in the car' and he just said 'becki' n then i wasnt even looking at him when i turned round he was on one knee n gettin this box out of his pocket n when he asked me i just laughed for ages n i think i made him paranoid i was gunna say no, but obviously i said yes, then i couldnt fit the ring on cus he'd borrowed another ring i used to wear on that finger before i was pregnant and measured it off that, well im abit fatter now so it doesnt fit me proper, but i forced the engagment ring on n now it wont come off, but i figure i need to really lose weight now so i look nice at my wedding then it will come and off then haha, it was soo nice and unexpected haha xx
