Just wanted to pop in and say GOOD LUCK JESSY!! Hope everything goes well and can't wait to hear what you have.

Sorry ladies - have to dash again!!

Talk soon

Hello all!!!

I am sooo sorry for not checking in here to write, I feel terrible about it. DH has gone back to work now and I feel like I am starting to get into a routine, though I would just like to have one whole day at home, haven't had that for a while and still not in sight, oh well. Always feel guilty jumping on the computer when DH is home cause we don't normally see each other that much! The load of washing I put on this morning is still in the machine and I really wanted to finish my thank you cards tonight but there is always tomorrow!!....

Congratulations to everyone! Liam is beautiful Tracey!

Jessy, I hope by now you have had your little bub, can't wait to hear what you have!

Thomas is going really well, the first 4-5 weeks were a breeze then he started to get wind, I'm getting better at reading his signs now, and take a lot more time to wind, 40 mins if I have to but sometimes it just won't come out, needless to say and hour or two later there is lots of screaming. Really pulls your heart strings hearing them cry like that and not being able help them. :( BFing is still going really well, heaps of milk, sometimes too much actually (think part of the reason he gets wind, he has to gulp so much!) I've been dabbling with expressing, i'm amazed at how easy that has been and have got heaps in the freezer (not sure why!!)He is so big, we went for our 6 week check the other day and another lady was there for the same thing with her baby girl, I swear her baby was half the size!! I think people forget that he is only 6 weeks old and they hold him like a 3 month old and his poor little head flops around!

Well I had better go and have a shower before I need to give T his dreamfeed before bed.
I hope you are all going well with your little bubs, and hopefully you to by now Jessy!
Sorry once again for MIA for sooo long! xxx

Admittedly Jessy, everytime I see your name logged in as the last person written in this thread, I always think you're going to announce your baby has arrived. It sounds soooo close for you.

How long approx. does it take to fill the birth pool? Is that DH's job?

blue! So glad you could write. Don't worry - we all know how it's like with getting time to come on here and write. I don't know about you ladies, but we get going in the morning, and before I know it, it's dinnertime.

Poor Thomas and his wind :( I have a feeling Sophie will be similiar. She currently throws up often after a feed and I'm just waiting for it to start hurting her. Have you thought about seeing the GP for medication? Mind you, I dont know if there's anything you can actually give.

Tracey, Liam really is sooo cute :) How are you going ??

Jules - is Erin now over 6 weeks? How time flies. How is feeding going?

Hope littleone and Addisyn are going great.

AFM - we have all been going well. S is currently waking up every 3-4 sometimes 5 hours per night for feeds, and during the day it varies from 2-3 hours. I sooo can't wait for that sleep through.

She's big too and her hair is (I swear) growing already! Nina already has very long hair for a 19 month old and I think Sophie will be the same.

Ok ladies, time to go but chat soon

Not tired at all of the checking Jules, just wish I'd have this baby!! Speaking of the census mine is all filled out with the exception of the baby who I will add if I need to...one less thing to worry about.

Christy it takes about an hour to fill, but I know I'm going to want to be in there well before I push the baby out as it is just so wonderful for relaxation and pain relief. It sounds like Sophie is sleeping very well!

I never thought I'd still be pregnant now...I was so sure I was having this baby early! I'm just focussing on the positives right now and enjoying my last days of being pregnant and trying very hard not to be impatient and so not enjoy now if that makes sense.

Here's a piccy of my bump today...40 weeks!

Just a quick one from me, our little bubba Sierra Grace was born this morning at 2.33am weighing 8lb 5oz. We're on top of the world right now, everything went perfectly- a 2 1/2 hour labour at home and she was born in the water as planned. The kids have been so excited to get up and see her this morning.

CONGRATULATIONS ON THE BIRTH OF SIERRA GRACE!!! gorgeous

Thanks Christy, Ren and Jules!

She is just such a joy, so relaxed, she came out and promptly fell asleep and has barely been awake ever since...and when she was she just quietly looked around. We are so in love with her.

Yay congrats Jessy! Good to hear you had a good birth and little Sierra has been a good girl for her first day!

Hi guys. CONGRATS Jessy on the arrival of Sierra! We have no Internet so will catch up properly as soon as I can. Hope everyone well.

Thanks Blue, Tracey, Tess and Bub2011.

I'm off to start our new thread now and will post more there.
