Summer Sugar Babies! - Early July Due Dates

Hey ladies! Just wondering how you are all doing. Ethan is 9 weeks now and things are definitely getting easier. Like you all I'm sure I am totally loving being a mommy and I just adore my son.
 
Freya and I are doing well, she's 4 weeks old now. A gorgeous little smiler!! She's a very laid back baby most of the time so we can't complain, she sleeps very well at night 11pm-5 or 6am already and then back down till 8or 9am.

We've had a few issues with bf, she has a shallow latch which I can't resolve so quite painful. How is anyone else that's bf finding it?

She a newborn photo shoot later today so I'll post photos soon!

Hope everyone is getting on well x

Hello Ladies!!!

OMG we are in November. Its like 7 weeks or something to xmas.

How is everyone doing? Would love to hear how you are all getting on.

Jack is now 17 weeks old! Wow how the time flies. He is just brilliant. Laughing and giggling and trying to sit up now. Though we have made no progress whatsoever in trying to roll over either way.

He has just started nearly sleeping through the night every night. I usually get 9pm to 9am or 9pm to 7am every night.

I started giving him a bit of baby rice in his bottle this week. Hoping to get him use to it. He is having nothing else though until 6 months.

So.....when you get a chance....it would be lovely to hear how all the babas are doing.

Also.....are you buying your little one anything for christmas?? (Jack doesn't really need anything and I know everyone else will spoil him).

Anyways.....just 1 picture attached for you.

Love to all.

Nic xx

Hey Ladies!!

Nic he is gorgeous!!! and wow that's great for his sleeping!!!

Things are good here, Cameron is now 19 weeks.. haha I did have to go back and count lol I just say he's 4 months old :)

He's a rolling machine these days both back to front and front to back... and Nic I wouldn't worry about the rolling some babies do it much later, I have Cameron on the floor a lot and I figure that's part of it, but also my other son crawled and walked early so I think there are some genetics working there too!

Cameron is what I've called my "trick baby" he tricks us into having more babies LOL he's very easy, not sure if he's so easy or I'm so relaxed this time around but what a difference from my first one. This guy is a breastfeeding machine which my other wasn't and sleeps great! he's still up once a night to eat but he eats in about 5 - 10 mins then is right back down, I can handle that! we have been trying to get him to take a bottle since about 3 weeks.. and well he finally did this week!! yipee!! we're not doing anything other than breastmilk until 6 months here he's doing well so there's been no need.

Other than that I'm enjoying my time off of work, I'm lucky to be off paid for 1 yr!

We are buying him stuff for christmas, mostly because santa has to come, my 5 yr old would be waay to confused if not. What we've done is only bought essentials and I've been picking things out that I'd like to have and giving them to others for suggestions to buy for him, them being 6 months at christmas is a great age!!

Hope everyone else is doing well.

Take care.

Kim

Hey ladies!! So good to hear from you, I miss our thread :)

Freya is 18 weeks now (I think.... I'm loosing track!!) and we are doing well. She can roll from back to front but she hates tummy time and won't do front to back. She can't sit yet but she tries and prefers to be in her bumbo than lying down.

We've got her a jumparoo for Christmas so I think she'll love sitting in there. We aren't getting her much else though she has so much from other people and doesn't need anything really. Dhs nan has got her a door bouncer so I'm excited for her to try that!!

Nic how's the baby rice going? I haven't tried anything yet. Not sure if to or just wait for six months (21 jan). Sleep wise we've just got over the four month sleep regression, that wasn't fun but she's doing well again.

Take care everyone, keep in touch when you can xxxx

your babies are getting so big!!!!!!

it's crazy, im still pregnant!!! not too much longer now......baby is constantly in my ribs, as i am vertically challenged!!! haha but i love having her in my tummy......this will be my last so im trying to enjoy every minute!
 
Hey ladies!

Just wondering if any of you are still on bnb anymore? Would love to hear from you and how your little ones are getting on.

I am expecting baby no 2 in July next year and none of the July 2014 threads are as lovely as this one was! I hope you are all doing well. Xx

Becky
 
Congrats on baby number two!!! No more babies for me as I have five!!!
 
Wow! I can't believe this thread is still active!! Seems like forever ago that I started it!

My daughter is 20 months and we are thinking about ttc'ing number 2. If anyone sees this, glad you are alll doing well!!

Kate
 
Hi Kate!! Lovely to hear from you! I'm still around and Kim is too. Amy is also on bnb still I think.

I had a mmc recently very sad but am just starting to ttc again now. Freya is 18 months.

How are you?! What did you name your little girl in the end? Was she early? X
 
I'm sorry to hear about your MMC, that's awful. I'll send some good baby vibes your way.

When I moved back to Ontario I just got so busy that I never really made it on here again, glad to see some of you are still here. We ended up naming our daughter Reid. I was induced at 37 weeks due to cholestasis, pretty normal labour. I'm excited to ttc again, however, I've been at a new job since the end of August, so I'm still fairly new and I don't know how well received my pregnancy news will be (although it tooks us 8 months after our mmc, so who knows how long it will take. ) Any opinions on my work situation?
 
Hey Kate

Nice to hear from you!! Becky and I unfortunately but fortunately met up on the MC part of this site :(

Maybe we'll all be prego together again!! this was such an awesome thread. And I think it's okay for your work, I live in Ontario too.. especially since you started in August, and even if you got pregnant now you wouldn't be due until Oct/Nov ish right? so it would be well over a year. But you know your work environment best, are you in the private sector or working in the government?

AFM, I'm waiting to get the all clear from my ob on Feb 26!! I'm hoping I'm allowed to ttc.. I had a mmc in October, but mine was a very rare scenario, the baby had attached to my c-section scar, we saw the hb at 7.5 weeks, then it was stopped at 8.5 weeks, the problem was when I miscarried, some tissue remained stuck in my scar and this tissue continued to grow and created a mass all the way through my uterus wall!! I was admitted to hospital for 5 days since they were afraid my uterus would rupture at any moment which would have meant a hysterectomy and no more babies!!! So I have recovered from that and on Feb 26 I have a special ultrasound when they will be putting saline solution into my uterus... this lets them check my uterus wall for stability :) on top of this I am having my gallbladder out Feb 14!! So I'm hoping to be ttc beginning of March!

So hopefully you come join us on the ttc!!! it would be amazing! I am betting that Becky is already pregnant :)

My little ds is now 19 months, his name is Cameron.

I also think of you often, about your mom, how is she?

Take care and lets stay in touch!!

Kim
 
Kim, I'm sorry to hear about your trials lately. That sounds like such a lot to have on your plate! Stay positive and March will be here before you know it!
I love the name Cameron! Congrats - and sorry this is so incredibly late.

Thank you so much for remembering about my mom, I know we used to talk about our moms often. My mom is doing quite well, she had her mastectomy just over 2 years ago, she sees her oncologist often, the meds she is on make her tired and stiff, but overall,she is doing well. And again, thank you for asking.

I hope we can all be pregnant together again, how nice would that be!

I remember this site being hopping! There were replies posted so often and what not, now, not so much, I have tried to join a few wtt threads and there is no activity.
Also, I don't get notifications if someone has responded, so i need to go through statistics and check my posts? Weird.
 
oh and about my work, I work for a private school, so with the school system, its sort of an unwritten law that you take your maternity leave for the school year -June - June, but we all know, getting pregnant is not as easy as NTNP, so I don't think I'll be waiting until October to conceive!
 
Good to hear from you Kate, glad to hear your mom is doing well.

haha yeah it's hard to pick when you are pregnant lol so what would you have to do if you were pregnant at a different time? I mean you can't plan everything ... as hard as we all try :)

Yeah lots on my plate... but hey that's life right?

So does that mean you guys are NTNP? I found the same thing with the WTT portion of the site, I have found a few good threads where people post constantly, but I think it's hit or miss really.

Kim
 
Hey Kim, we are NTNP starting this month, I just don't want to miss the boat, so to speak, if we wait until the fall and are not successful, it would be tough. nut NTNP can be stressful as well, because if we fall pregnant right away (not likely!) there are a lot of logistics to work out, with work mostly.!
What's up for everyone this wknd?
 
Hey Kate!

Congratulations on baby Reid, lovely name. I had a baby girl too, she was 2 weeks late and we called her Freya. She is 18 months now and amazing.

I'm glad to hear your mum is doing well. I told Kim that I read through a lot of the thread recently, looking back on old times and I remember you supporting one another regarding your mums cancer.

It's always tricky with when to time a pregnancy and I always think in many ways there is no 'right' time really. We had a girl at work who had only been with us 3 months when she got pregnant, not long enough to get maternity pay from the company or anything and she was so upset that she felt she was letting everyone down. She hadn't expected to get pregnant so quickly, she thought it could take 6-12 months but she caught the first month. Once the surprise had subsided though, work supported her and she had the baby in 2012 and has been back ages now. So if it was me I wouldn't worry too much. I know it wouldn't be ideal to get pregnant so soon into a new job and not fit into the usual maternity timings but that's life sometimes.

Good luck ntnp anyway!! It would be lovely to see this thread chatty again and would be amazing if we were pregnant at the same time again, fingers crossed!!
