September Stars

My belly has really popped out this week so thought I'd share a pic! Here is my 10 week bump/bloat.

Looking good Emzy! Happy 10 weeks! xx
I just look tubby now. None of my size 10 bottoms fit anymore and so I always look like a tramp these days as I have NOTHING to wear! I did however lose 3lbs last week as I was poorly! :thumbup: xx
 
Just saying hi,
You baby bumps have an excuse for your clothes not to fit, with me its just too much food!

Emzy, hugs sweetie, its not nice, baby tends to take all it needs and leave Mummy feeling very poorly, I was bad with all but worst with Sophie, i was SO sick with her, also was on the verge of being admitted but managed not to be, just try and sip fluids, ginger is supposed to be good, although personally nothing helped me!!

Asher, Boo to work! Love the pic of the boys in the bath, so cute clean little people! I have the girls in together and so its 3 girls in our tub, i suspect not much less splashing goes on than the boys!:haha:

Sarah, pleased the work is done just for now, til Chjristmas although that is creeping up!

We went to Plymouth, stayed at a travelodge for 19 quid a night, it was very nice, we got busses and taxis on the day to save navigating!

Right have to dash, it is our anniversary today and i am being promised a costa! We exchanged cards and agreed that was it as Christmas is ever closer and tbh we would rather buy for the children than ourselves, which we did plenty of at the weekend!

back soon, managing to scrounge my son or step sons lappy for a quick catch up!

Watched the inbetweeners last night the first episode, thought it was funny, my eldest watched it with me and when the mum pulls up in a car and all this kids friends say 'is that your Mum, she's well fit' and my ds said, welcome to my world, so funny, i have actually heard it from his mates that is how they talk! lol

Bye for now xxxxxxxx:hugs::kiss:
 
Btp that's great you fit mummy you ! :)
Love the inbetweeners !

teeny emzy hope your feeling better?

Girls have had a 2 and half hour nap !! I ought to wake them in a sec !

We had there little Halloween party last night very sweet but not many trick treaters :(

Amelia is now a competent walker and Layla a competent runner :)
I'm still busy selling baby items must list some more on here x
 
Just got a call from Kent police asking if everything was ok as there had been a 999 call from our number, sounding like a very small child.... Oh my god how embarrassing! Need to find a new higher place for the phone to live!!

I know I shouldn't laugh, but how funny is Lilia! Riley has a habit of calling my sister (the first in the phone memory) and leaving 30 min answerphone messages! These pesky kids! x:haha:
 
Sorry for being selfish with my posts today but I'm getting a bit worried and need advice, lilia is still refusing meals apart from her breakfast? She had a weetabix this morning and I tried a muffin, apple and grapes for her lunch which she wouldn't eat although she had a yoghurt, and tried jacket potato for tea with quiche and sweetcorb (strange I know bit she loves all those things!) and she literally wouldn't have one mouthful of it just spits it out, tries another weetabix afterwards and she refused that! She's also refusing her bedtime bottle, at what point do I worry? Cause I already am! Think I'll tKe her to re doctor tomorrow but think he'll just say it's because of this viral infection but I think it could be something else, she has a big ulcer like thing in the middle of her Tongue, almost looks like a burn?
 
If you are worried Louise I would ring the doctor but I remember when my neice had a viral infection and the doctor was told she wasnt eating he said children wont starve themselves but I know its worrying so ring the doctors. Is she drinking water?
 
Yes she is but not as much as usual, thanks for reply Im sure it's probably part of her feeling poorly but still a bit worrying!
 
Louise dont panic about what im going to say but it sounds like hand foot and mouth its a common childhood viral infection and its rife at the moment about 80% of the nursery have had/got it! X
 
emzy have you had a look at the obaby range of prams they are fab and very reasonable! X
 
Hey everyone!!

Louise - Hope Lilia gets better soon!!!

BTP - LMAO! I do have to say...how you manage to look soooo good after 5 kids and your DH amazes me.... i'm going grey with just 2 and a Luke lmao!

Emzy - I hope you feel better soon... i always found that rich tea biscuits helped me and flat lemonade.... just an idea though x



Well, I took the girls to be weighed today....

Kimi has put on weight and is now a healthy 20lb 6oz (up 6oz)

But unfortunately Pippa has now lost weight and is down to 7lb 3oz ( loss of 5oz)

I was absoloutely heartbroken after all my struggles with mastitis and having no option but to give up breastfeeding as feeding was excuciatingly painful and thinking that I was doing the right thing by giving her formula...for her to lose weight? I just can't forgive myself...if only I had just persevered with the BF then maybe her weight gain would be okay...she shouldnt be losing...

Doctors tomorrow to get something to help Pippa do a poo and to talk about her wieght loss...

I think deep down, I'm absoloutely terrified that she will become ill like Kimi was and because she's alot smaller and younger that her body wont try and fight whatever it is like Kimi's did and I dont know if I could cope with that again?

and Luke is no help...he doesnt understand... no-one looks at him or points the finger at him...it's all the mum who gets the blame if they're ill...'she's not doing it right' or 'she's a bad mum' and all he says to me was ' she's fine...just dont worry?!?!' :wacko:

Sorry for my down post... am online shopping for my SS so i hope he/she likes what I'm getting them :)

Hugs to everyone!!

That did cross my mind lbb but she hasn't got anything else on her body and there's nothing around her mouth, just this one mark on her Tongue? I don't know, I think I'll take her to the docs tomorrow and he can have a look x
 
You'll be able to get an energency appointment tomorrow. Maybe try tomorrow with more smoother and softer food that she likes thats easier to eat? I know JJ was similar at some meal times but nit at others when he was ill. Hope she starts feeling better in the morning . JJ seems fine after all her snogging lol

Emzy have you got a pic from when you were in 1st tri with Holly for comparison? Do you feel you've got a bump sooner this time around? Hope you feel better I agree with YM rich tea biccies and flat lemonade worked for me

YM - this is NOT your fault, don't feel guilty many people are unable to bf (me included) and you are not to know that she wouldn't have lost weight with bf too. Hope the docs go well tomorrow it's understandable you being worried after Kimi. Could he not prescribe neocate for you to see if she gains ? Or is it not that simple? I'm sure it will be fine :hugs:
 
Ym dont blame yourself hunni its not ur fault at all! It could just be that she is so constipated that its stopping her from drinking as much as she needs to drink! James is constantly up and down with his weight so i know exactly how you feel and when they use the term 'failure to thrive' its like they are blaming you and saying ur neglecting them its god damn awful! x x X x x
 
well James has his operation for his peg tomorrow and im so anxious about it, i feel like my head is about to go boom! :'( so next time i speak to you all he will hopefully have had it done and be absolutely fine x x x x
 
Lbb :hugs: be thinking of you both tomorrow. I'm sure everything will be fine and James will be better with the PEG.
 
Louise poor lilia and you it does sound like it must be her mouth thing , hopefully the Drs will help ! I did have to smile at the phoning 999 though :)

Ym you are not to blame ! Dont be too hard on yourself I'm sure it's not the non breast feeding that's made her lose weight x

I've been doing lots of school work and I'm tired must try to go to bed earlier !
