Big Congratulations Claire So glad that Lil Macy has made it safely into the world and you are both doing ok That was an amazingly quick labor hun Can't wait to see pics and hear about it at a later date...just rest up for now and treasure every second with your new baby girl


Jane Thanks babe...I should come in here more often...sorry Glad everything is going ok with you sweets Hope everything is ok with your placenta when you go for your scan...and then bring on another announcement!

 

[bumble b]

wow, so pleased for you, welcome to the world little macy

all is great with me, still getting the sickness on & off but much improved. i'm starting to get a bump which is so nice. we have decided not to find out the sex when i'm 20 weeks so team yellow all the way!

lisa, so nice to hear from you we have missed you!

immi, your birth story was fab, it makes me less nervous about it now & the pics are just gorgeous, well done

jane, not long now i wonder what you have, have you chosen any names yet? we have a few that we like already xxx

laura, hope you are ok lovely

laelani, how are things with you? xxxx

 

[im_mi]

Lisa, aww i'm glad you enjoyed it! birth stories are fab, i spent sooo much time reading natural birth stories when ttc and pregnant. and its so nice to hear from you! thats great about the referral, hope you don't have to wait too long for an appointment

hayley, aw im so glad it made you feel not quite as nervous! It's all about mind over matter hon, fear is not your friend when it comes to birthing! and yay for team yellow! it's such a wonderful surprise when you give birth and discover what you got

and Claire!!! Congrats!! Cant wait to hear all about your super-fast labour and see a pic of your little princess! Take it easy won't you, i hope your little family are taking good care of you

Jane, good luck at your scan! Whats the issue with your placenta? was it partially covering the cervix at your 20 week scan? Im sure it would have moved by now, most of them do.

cant believe how fast the time is going, my hubby goes back to work in just over a week gutted! i'm nervous about how the hell im going to manage on my own with two kids but lots of people do, i'm sure it wont be as bad as i'm imagining it will be. Am loving being a mum of two, its hard though! I cant imagine how i EVER thought having just one baby was hard work, lol!! Although of course it is hard work at the time, because you aren't used to having a baby at all. I miss sleeping in my own bed; i can't take Ciaran upstairs at bedtime because he wakes Jack up and then Jack gets all upset, its a nightmare. So Ciaran and I sleep downstairs until about 5am when hubby takes Ciaran for a while so I can go to bed. Man, i'm really going to miss that when he goes back to work!

We have so much to do next week it's not even funny. Still haven't made an appointment to register Ciaran's birth, i hope they can fit us in next week. I mean, i can go by myself to do it since we're married now but i'd really like hubby to be there, if only to help me wrangle the kids!!

Ciaran is starting to get a bit colicky, bless him Its only ever in the evenings, he's really happy and content during the day. Come about 8pm, though, he seems to get these awful pains, the poor thing just screams this high pitched scream and writhes around, its horrible to watch and there's nothing I can do about it sometimes feeding him soothes him but a lot of the time he finds it too hard to feed when he's that upset. The midwife suggested i start drinking fennel tea in the evenings as it aids digestion, and the benefits will get to Ciaran through my milk. So, off to the health food shop tomorrow i go.

Hope you girls are all okay. I'm going to head off now as Ciaran is stirring. Want to get him fed and then hopefully he will sleep for a little while.

hope everyone else is well xxx

 

[bumble b]

aww wont be long jane

i'm over 16 weeks already, it seems to be flying by! i got just over £200 tax rebate so we are putting it towards a pram which is a huge help.

i have the weekend off but it's boring as no one wants to do anything so i'm just catching up with washing & going to do the food shop later, not much fun! steve has a day to himself tomorrow so we are off to chelmsford to get baby some bits, so excited xxxxxx

 

[ellaandcallum]

Hi girls

Jane, cant say I have any tips, I have slipped back into baby mode real easy, the thing I am dreading is when hubby goes back to work next Thursday and I need to do the school run, Macy seems to want feeding between 8 and 8:30am which is sooo annoying so not sure how I am gonna play that one yet lol.

She is feeding really well, only up twice in the night and she feeds quickly too which is fab for me so I can get straight back to sleep. I am getting more sleep now than when I was pregnant, God am I tempting fate, lol??

I am struggling to get out anywhere early, its trying to find that window once she has been fed to get out and go, or like now I am waiting for her to wake up to be fed so I can go to Tesco and my friends. I am not getting dressed until late either but I am sure it will all come in time and I will have some kind of routine going on. On the whole it doesnt seem like 5 minutes since I was doing all of this with my other two.

I cant believe how quick your pregnancies are both going, my sister has announced she is pregnant again, 11 weeks, can believe it, she is so fertile she only missed one pill and bam!!! The other two children she fell first time too. So although this one was unexpected she is pleased, but I think she may struggle as Liam is only 14 months old so she will have her work cut out.

Oh well I am gonna wake my little lady I really need to get out. Take care and catch up soon and I am so pleased both your pregnancies are going well. xxxx

 

[ellaandcallum]

Just noticed Jane you said you had more of a show, thats fab and a sign body is getting ready for the joys of child birth lol! ;-) xxx

 

[bumble b]

aww clare, so glad she is doing well, i hope my liitle one is as good in the night as macy, erm wishful thinking on my part lol.

who's watching xfactor this year? i love matt cardle but i'm not sure about cher lloyd, she just annoys me lol.

hope you all have a fab evening whatever you are doing xxxxxx

 

[WelshRose]

[ellaandcallum]

Just a quick hello, we have all been very ill, the baby got gastroenteritis, she was very poorly but better now, me and Ella had it over the weekend and hubby has it now, of course he is worse, my son had it last weekend. There is so much going round!!!grrr!!!!

Other than than Macy is settling into a great sleeping pattern, feed about 11pm, 4am and 8:30am ish so nights not too bad.

Glad you are feeling the baby move now Hayley, it really is magical isnt it, it feels so weird not feeling the baby anymore. Boy it is going quick, 17 weeks already!

Anyway hope the rest of you are OK, fingers crossed for you Lisa too. xxx

hayley thats lush news about feeling movement best feeling ever as much as i moan about being uncomfortable going to miss my bump

lisa thinking of you always

hope everyone else is well and babies!!

im at the last box getting excited but nervous had midwife yesterday babies head is in the brim thought that was good news what with being baby number 3 as heard they dont always engaged till the last min so at least he/she is heading the right way!! having loads of BH and some are very painful!! just a waiting game now, just wanna know the SEX NOW xx

 

[WelshRose]

Hey there Lovelys

Claire...So sorry to hear that you've all been poorly....Probably well and truly recovered now thou...I hope!
That's great that Lil Macy is in a good sleeping pattern already...the days can contain anything if you've had a good nights sleep

Jane...Thank-you sweetie
That's fantastic that LO is engaging I miss read what you typed hun...I thought you said you wanted "SEX NOW"!!...That'll teach me to speed read
So what are you thinking or ??? Hope it won't be long before you meet him/her

Hayley...How are you doing sweetie? When is the next scan...and are you gonna find out???!!!

Where's everybody else these days....Loobi, Erin, Im-mi...thinking of you guys

Well afm....4dpo
It would appear that the soy worked for me this month...with an earlier ov as well. It always used to be about cd17, this cycle cd13 Nothing going on in the way of symptoms...except and this is going to sound crazy because I'm sure it is waaay too early...but round ligament pain???!!! It was pretty intense yesterday, first wondered if I was going to release another egg as it's only happening on the right side (after ov pains had been on the left), then worried about my appendix...althou no other symptoms of appendicitis...silly fool So yeah...still curious as to what the hell it is but trying not to think about it
I was looking thru my charts this morning and I have only two others that haven't had a dip in temp between Ov and 4dpo...one september last year and the other Lil Bean's...Keep everything crossed for me girlies...so wanna join the rest of you with having had a xxxx

 

[bumble b]

lisa that is fab, 4dpo i can't wait to see if it's a this cycle! keep us informed please!

glad you are all doing ok despite the nasty bugs etc that are going around.

i'm feeling great at the moment. i wouldn't say full of energy but just loads healthier. our 20 week scan is on the 8th november & we are staying team yellow you will all have to wait & see if it's a little prince or princess. can't wait to see it moving around. hopefully we get some good pics this time too.
i have a cute little bump now, not huge but growing nicely. i love it!

well better dash, got chicken roasting in the oven as i worked yesterday so missed out on a nice roast with all the trimmings. can't wait to eat it, it smells fab xxxxxx

 

[WelshRose]

Hope you enjoyed the chicken Hayley........you can't beat a roast with all the trimmings

Aww hope everything goes well on the 8th hun...and lil one is feeling photogenic As for team ....we enjoy the guessing! 2nd Tri rocks Hun definately my fave bit of the pregnancy....I'm not really qualified to talk about 3rd Tri

I definately will keep you updated...feeling hopeful at the moment...having a lot of strange cramps going on...but I guess we'll have to wait and see....I'm supposed to be testing on the 5th November....but you girls know me!

Big Hugs and Oooodles of Love

 

[ellaandcallum]

Hey chickadees

Lisa I so have everything crossed for you hun, it sounds promising, and I cant wait to hear your news. xxxxx

Hayley, its great when you start to show and finally look pregnant rather than fat lol! I hate the inbetween stages, and the is she or isnt she glances from people!! lol!!!! You are gonna stay team yellow, I dont know how you girls do it, I just couldnt help myself, I like to be prepared, but then saying that I did start doubting the hospital as to whether they got the sex right and started to panic that the pink pram I bought would have to be returned lol!!!!

Louise, not long now hunnie, ooohhhh, how exciting, another bubba coming, yay!!! I have everything crossed for you that your labour will go as smooth and as painless as possible lol!!!

Well as for me, yes we are recovered thankfully and despite Macy unable to hold down any feeds she has put on a pound, so she is now 8lb 12oz, so she is doing really well. She is tucked up in bed now and I hope she wont wake for a good few hours yet, she was last fed at 6:30 so normally she will wake about 12:30ish for her next night time feed, I will be interested to see what the hour change does this weekend. She is now 4 weeks old, I cant believe it, but then saying that it feels like I have had her forever. I have been busy buying her Xmas pressies this week, all the sales are on, I managed to bag a right bargain, the Fisher Price Rainforest Jumperoo for £67 from Argos, I know she wont be able to go in it in December but by end of Jan/Feb she should be able to and I know she will love it!!!

Anyway girls I am gonna hop it to bed now. Take care and lots of baby dust to you Lisa. xxxxxx

 

[janelouise]
