Trying to catch up...

Cheryl, omg, congrats!!! What a happy surprise! Sorry your MIL is so unsupportive.

Bailey, glad you got all moved, are you feeling at home in your new place? I'm glad it went as well as it did with telling your families but sorry your MIL was, also not more supportive. As for slings/carriers, I love them and can't imagine a world without one. I use a beco Gemini and love it, it worked well from when she was tiny. I loved the Moby wrap too bubt it is quickly outgrown. If you have to spend the $ on one new I suggest doing a stretchy hybrid wrap instead because then it will last you longer and you can back carry in it. Here we have a group with a sling library, if you have anything like that I suggest going and checking out different carriers as they all fit people differently. Beware of buying off ebay, especially an ergo, as there are a lot of fakes out there that might not be safe. As for stroller, a friend of mine has twins and she has the city mini double stroller and loves it.

MrsD, good luck at the midwife today. Make sure they take a look at your nipple. I hope you get a surprise scan today... I still say that's a boy in there!

Cupcake, Zach is going to be bigger then Emily soon, she was just shy of 16 pounds at her 9 month visit! I hope things are going well and kudos to you for pumping so long!

Sath, TTC, and Esperia... Good luck this cycle, you ladies so deserve to see those 2 pink lines!!

Tawn, I think our girls are alike... Emily also goes from happy to meltdown in about 2 seconds... Though she does, typically, finally, sleep pretty well at night... Catnaps during the day. Good luck with the sleep training, how's it been going since?

As for us, Emily is doing well.. We are still Breastfeeding but she is eating lots of purée and even a bunch of finger foods now. She's just recently really gotten into eating. She still doesn't crawl but she rolls where she wants to go. She can wave and say hi. She also says Mama, Dada, My Mama, Emma, and will repeat random other words. She's also starting to hug and give kisses. I'm still home with her for now and working Saturdays. I think I am probably going to start working more hours in March but we aren't sure what we are doing for child care.

Mothercare have got loads if Christmas outfits

Haha Enough of the Christmas talk even though its only 6 weeks away aaaaaaargh!

Yes I hope one of you is having twins

They didn't scan me today boo, they found baby's heartbeat easily so didn't feel the need boo

Oh and they also put back my 20 weeks scan by a day do that I can see the consultant on the same day about my thyroid bugger, so it's now the 11th December

 

[MrsDuck]

Hi Amy sounds like all is really good with you and Emily. What a cutie pie

Nope didn't mention nipple as I found a whole thread of people with the same thing on bnb and so it seems quite normal and it just thought if as a skin tag, besides we had juniors in with us today so it was a bit of a packed room to be getting my nip out haha

 

[baileybubs]

Hi Amy! Thanks for all the tips Hun! I'm gonna look into toddler carriers too so we can have one of each, are there any you know of that can be use from birth into toddlerhood? Coz then we could swap round which baby is carried and which is pushed lol!
Glad to hear Emily is doing so well, and a little chatterbox too! She's such a cutie pie! I think Emilia would weigh more than her lol, she's a chunk and weighed 17lb a few weeks ago! Will find out Friday when the health visitor comes!

Mrs d no house news? And poop about no scan AND your 20 week scan going back a day, that sucks! Can't wait to see your little duckling again!

Afm finally got to the doctors again after registering, have to take a pee sample in tomorrow, and my first bp was high 154/80 but second was only 134/84 so better. I blame df coz he's been a complete twonk as usual.
Also my cousin messaged me on fb to tell me his gf is expecting their first baby and is due end of June/beginning of July!!! I was dying to say me too but he's got a bit of a big mouth so he'd probably tell someone.

 

[MrsDuck]

Oh no I hope your bp comes down. What's your edd? And I keep forgetting to ask you bout your tooth

 

[baileybubs]

My EDD is 9th July mrs d. And my tooth is fine thanks Hun, the pain went away again with lots of salt water.

How's your day been mrs d?

 

[AmyB1978]

Bailey, I don't know of a carrier that's great for both an infant and a toddler other than maybe a woven wrap if you are up for wrapping.

You mentioned Next sizes run big? My Mom is ordering birthday skirts and tights from there for Emily and my niece, how big do they run?

I hope your BP behaves itself!

MrsD, boo for no scan but yay for a healthy heartbeat!

 

[AmyB1978]

My birthday is July 12, somebody needs to have their baby on my birthday!

 

[MrsDuck]

Glad to hear your tooth has calmed down and yay for a July baby

I've had a busy day today, the hospital this morning then rushed from there back home to meet the second agents we are using on our house, then shoot to work for the afternoon, then straight to my nans to sort her out for the evening as she's on her own at the moment and then finally home phew, glad every day isn't like today

 

[baileybubs]

Aw Amy well if I can get my vbac I might have my LO on your birthday lol! As for Next sizes, Emilia as I said is on the larger side of average for her age both length and weight wise and she fits well in the 6-9 months size, in fact they are a little big in some cases. The 9-12 month ones look huge!

Mrs d sounds like one busy day for you Hun! Try and take it a bit easier tomorrow lol!
