Hi ladies, I had my first appt/scan yesterday and everything is looking great with bean #2!

Connor is doing great, his sleep has much improved which is nice.

Kristin started crawling at a playdate this morning. Luckily the other mom had a video recorder or I would have missed it.

 

[Huggles]

oh wow sheryl, that's awesome! And so lucky there was a camera nearby!

Kezzy is pulling herself up on things, she has a box she plays with, and she pushes herself up and walks behind it to keep her balance. She is such an amazing little girl. I see her as often as I can, but I'm in a real tough spot myself right now.
She is going to be a tall girl just like me, she is already showing her height. I just feel so proud to have her as my daughter, and I really miss her.
I went out to visit her the other night and she called me mummy. She actually recognised me and called me. It nearly made me cry!

On a sadder note, I just had an early miscarriage. It's cut me pretty deep to be honest; trying to get passed the guilt (the blame phase) and the fact that I lost it. I'm trying to keep my emotions about it tucked away because I'm just getting passed post natal depression, but it is very hard.
I feel like a failed mother and a failed woman.

I've decided, however, that I'm finally going to do something with my life, so I can give my daughter a better life. I'm joining the Royal Australian Air Force, and getting my act together. I need the stability that a military lifestyle will bring, and I need the income to help support my daughter.
A lot of things are tearing me up, I'm basically homeless, I'm heart-sick and I've been borderline suicidal, so I really need a change of lifestyle to survive.

I just thought I better give you girls an update, because I love you all, and hope everything is going well with your babies and for those of you with another on the way, congratulations.

I hope that things start to turn around for you.

Leopard -- Kezzy is living with her Dad then and you visit her? I suppose that's better since you said you don't have a place to live anymore and are joining the military. I hope it gives you everything you need and that your body and brain recover quickly from all that has happened to you. Sounds like Kezzy is doing brilliantly!

Do you have any current pictures of her? I want to see what she looks like now.

 

[Mrs. AJ]

Leopard. I am sorry you are going through such a rough time.

 

[fides]

Leopard, i'm so sorry for your loss and for all the other things you are dealing with. you'll be in my prayers.

 

[Huggles]

leopard, I'm so sorry you are going through so much at the moment

 

[sherylb]

I think this is the best place to ask since since all the babies are at the same place.

Re: BFing. Kristin is down to nursing 3x a day now. Is anyone else experiencing the same? I'm full by the time she does nurse so I think she's still getting a lot, just noticed she was only nursing when she wakes up in the morning, once during the day and at bedtime. She also had 3 meals and an occasional snack.

 

[Huggles]

As you know, logan is formula fed, not bf, but he has also dropped his bottles so he generally only has milk when he wakes, in the middle of the day, and at bedtime.
He eats 3 meals + 1 snack.

I mentioned to the paed that he'd dropped some bottles and he said that's right and normal and must happen.

[Huggles]

she's gorgeous!

 

[sherylb]

Leopard I love that pic! She's changed so much from your avatar pic! She has more hair too. I think Kristin's was falling out so she still doesn't have much on most of her head compared to what I would expect at almost 9 months of growth.

 

[bbygurl719]

hey all just popping in to say hi. next monday we find out the sex and lil miss ela keeps trying to take her first step!!

 

[alybel]

Just popping in and saw that bbygurl is pregnant again, congratulations!!!

Little Veronica is doing well, furniture cruising, etc. She has just started childcare and loves it. The only problem is that she is breastfed and refusing to take a bottle, so Ihave to go down to childcare and feed her during the day. Lucky she is cute...

I'll try to pop in a little more often, just so busy with four kids, working etc.

 

[sherylb]

Woohoo! I was right! Bby is having a girl! She posted they already picked out Tinnlee Grace as her name.

Alybel I would definitely have the same problem with Kristin if she went to daycare. At least she is down to nursing at wake-up, between lunch and dinner and at bedtime, only 3 times a day and occasionally once in the middle of the night.

Hello ladies! Wondered if I could ask some advice? My son has become seriously irratible. He was sleeping through but since he hit 8 months he's been irratible night and day. He's either crying or moaning all the time exceptions are when he's eating.
Anyone else got this experience?
