It has been so quiet here lately!!!!
What are you all up to??
I've been taking a bit of a SC break (just popping in now and then).
I have just started a new job (about 3 weeks ago) and am now wondering if I have done the right thing?? TTC is on hold at the moment - probably do IVF in July. I'm so over thinking about it! Lach had an ear infection for easter . That sucked! He was so sick with a fever and vomiting, it was just no fun. He's fine now.
What did you all do for easter? What's happening? Come on - out with it!!
I'm around been checking in. I'm waiting for the next get together. I wish that we all could all get together on more of a regular basis. I haven't met anyone on here yet.
Hubby and i have decided to ttc. We've decided no pill and if i get pregnant yay and if i don't we'll go overseas in july. That's if we can afford to .
I was saying in the get togethers post that i really want to make friends. I haven't had the chance etc. I am looking afford to the get together.
Hi all!! I've been around, obsessively on here most days. Now that I'm ttc (STILL, I should say!!) there's no keeping me away Life has been going by in a mist of daily temping and obsessing on my CM - oh how much having a bub can take over your life. I've managed to be so cool about it for so long, and really I still am, but would like to be preggers in June or July. Jenna is such a little fiesty, sweet little thing these days (there was a little girl, who had a little curl, right in the middle of her forehead...). I'm really enjoying her COMPLETE extroverted nature - she is lots of fun, though a little tiring. She's just hit the 'mummy play with me' stage - yikes! I've been trying to find friends kids that I can babysit or visit with so she has someone to play with and occupy her. I've got Mon - Wed covered but the end of the week can get a little frustrating. There's just only so long I can play dolls for...

hi!
I'm always popping in to say hi an dsee what's being posted here lol
Well at the moment i'm recovering from Natasha's birthday party.
I had my cycle from feburary 23rd to 2nd March- 8th March- 15th March, 19th March - 23 started again today he said he was going to put me onto the pill, brevinor to see if the bleeding stops, but he said on the other hand he could send me to get a d&c at the hospital. He sent me to get bloods done to see if I'm pregnant, and see if the bloods show up anything else, i got the results today and it was negative.
i don't know what to do!
hope you had a good easter

Hi Everyone,
Well over Easter I got a BFP! So while excited my head is in a bit of a spin. As much as I was trying, I really wasn't expecting it this month. MIL was in intensive care and we were spending so much time out there we started to resemble zombies and BDing was not on the top of the priority list. But I was praying that I would be able to tell my MIL that she would be a grannie was she was out of the induced coma...so I am counting my blessings for this little miracle!
Deb, Jenna ia gorgeous - my mum used to say that 'there was a little girl...' saying to me!
Anyway, I'll try and make more of an effort on these boards.
Take care and babydust to everyone that wants it!
Brooke xx
I think my doctor will be sending me for a D&C. Had Aletta 9 weeks ago and started bleeding again this week, I'm pretty sure it's not AF.
I think Mandi's busy shopping... saw her at the mall yesterday. I was totally shocked, I'm not used to running into people I know and didn't relize that she lived close to me.
Aletta slept for 7 hours last night!!! Wish I had. I kept waking up thinking she should be getting up about now. The longest she had slept was 5 hours.
Would love to help you out with Jenna but don't think Aletta would be much fun. We had somone over with their 15 month old and Aletta didn't quite know what to make of her so went to sleep.
Suppose I should head back to bed now that sleeping beauty is out again.

Congratulations Brooke!! That's fabulous news! I hope your MIL is okay.
Janet - it's funny how the bub often sleeps through before us mums!! Good news though - hopefully you'll catch up in a few days - what a relief! Sorry to hear you might need a D+C - hope it settles down for you soon. Just as long as they don't scedule it for next Friday

Hi Girls!
Thought it was about time to check out the Aussie thread, and wow its been a bit busy in here LOL Guess that means I should check in here more often huh!
All is going well here. Liam is nearly 8mths old! Still can't believe that in 4 short months he will be 1 where has my baby gone??? He is a real little character, getting cheekier by the day LOL but we love it
AF is FINALLY after being normal for 5mths, and being MIA for 2mths is showing her ugly head. About time!!! We aren't preventing, so if it happens it happens, but I think that if it hasn't by the time Liam is 1, we will start trying harder.
Janet, I just posted in the other thread before seeing this one that it was great seeing you and Aletta yesterday. The funny thing was, that I was showing Mike (DH) the baby in the sling, and that next baby I want one of those as they look really easy to handle. Mike was saying, Ohhh look at the little girl she is sooo cute. Meanwhile I'm thinking wow that baby looks familiar LOL Hang on so does her Mum!! Wasn't till we had walked around the corner and I looked back and realised it was you! Will have to keep my eye out for you next time we are there!
That's so funny Mandi. Will have to keep an eye out for you too. We usually shop there.
I love my sling. When you saw us Aletta had just woken up. She slept most of the time we were in the grocery store. Probably 99% of the time we use it she falls asleep which is pretty amazing on those days that she just doesn't want to nap.

Have you got one of those side slings?? I've got one of those - and used it soooooooooooo much with Jenna, both as a baby, and as a toddler. I was still using it to have her on my hip at 2 (i.e. when she was teething or overtired and cranky)! I really love them, but alternated between it and a soft back carrier (made of the same material) that I could put her on my back with the weight distributed over both shoulders as she got older. It was great for bushwalking/doing the dishes when she was cranky etc. Now that I've got a lot more strength from carrying a toddler a lot I think I'll use them even more with the next bub (I was such a wee weak little thing when I had Jenna that I couldn't carry her for too long without my back going on me ).
Bummer your PCOS signs are showing again with your cycle Mandi - hopefully it won't be too bad yet?? How did you conceive Liam?

Hi to all the Aussie & Kiwi cysters. Nice to read your news, lots of lovely baby news.
Amy, your new job sounds great to me, a bit of a challenge! Just popped in to wish you luck in July if you decide to go down that road. Not much is new for me, I don't stop in at SC as much any more either but I still think of everyone, and always read the Aus/Kiwi forum when I'm here!
Wishing you all the very best,
Rhon xxx

I hand around here a little bit, I ask a few questions in the Mommy section...
Bronte is good, she is a bit unsettled still and we are having huge feeding issues right now (my left boozie is blocked grrrrrrrr) but is stacking on the weight. She has big chubber cheeks!! She has silent reflux so SCREAMS alot, but her 1ml of mylanta helps her a bit. She is sleeping well at night so is a really good girl for me. When I say that I mean she settles well after feeding so Im not left with a wide awake baby at 3am screaming the place down (usually, we have had our moments)! I still feel like the luckiest gal in the world for having another baby...I know you guys understand what I mean. I feel like I've won lotto with my two girls! I am already thinking about #3 ROFL....not even going to consider going down that path of TTC for at least 2 years....
Finnlay is going OK at school still some problems with letting me go in the mornings but thats to be expected with the new baby and all...she is adjusting to ehr sister much better than expected and we have wuite a few 'huggies' moments with them both...Finnlay adores her sister and now that Bronte is starting to respond with smiles she is even more in love with her.
DH and I are going ok too...he lost his job 2 weeks ago which was a huge blow to me. I jsut cannot think about it and all that comes with not working so I am not focusing on it. I am in denial. With all thats going on with Bronte and her feeding problems (well mine) I am just trying to concentrate on her. If I didn't I think I would sink lower and lower IYKWIM?? Chin up and being in denial is working for me right now LOL!!!
Its good to hear what everyone is up to, I wish I was closer so I could come to the get togethers!
I'll be joining you all in the weightloss thread soon....have been too tired to excersise but am eating really well!!
Oh Bec you've got me all clucky!! I can't wait to see Jenna with a little brother or sister. She is soooooooo clucky also - I can imagine her not wanting to go to school and miss out on her new brother or sister at first It sounds like you're really happy - I think the denial thing works well - if it stops you from stressing, then go with it!! DH lost his job in September last year and I went with the denial thing too and I still think it was a good thing. All things happen for a reason and in the right time, so something good will pop up soon, I'm sure of it! Enjoy those two little girls of yours and I hope your boob settles down soon (OWW!!).

ROFL I make myself clucky!! You have no idea....when I was pregnant with Bronte DH was ademant this was it, the last child, we were only having 2. So I prepared myself emotionally for that (Ive always wanted a big family), I said goodbye to all of these firsts and lasts, while in labour said goodbye to my pregnant body. I was BAWLING over it about a week later and he drops the 'Yeah, I'd like to have more kids'. Well, I could have decked him....after all I went through. But now I get excited thinking about it!! ANd Bronte is only 5 weeks old!!!! I tell myself to slow down and enjoy her....but I still cant wait to do it all again!!
Good luck TTC, its such a tough road. I dont even want to think about that aspect of having a baby *groan*....
Best be off and pack my stuff, we're going away tomorrow and of course good old Mum is last on the lsit of people to pack for (and of course DH cant be trusted packing the girls stuff..he has NO colour coordination...)
You know, that 'last time I'll be pregnant' 'last time I'll ever have a brand new baby' thing is the thing that makes it okay that it's taken so long to conceive #2. We're only having two kids and I'm just not ready to say it's all over yet. Enjoy your trip!!
XX
PS I know what you mean about DH and colour coordination - my DH just doesn't get it either!!

YOOO HOO - Where is everyone????? 
. That sucked! He was so sick with a fever and vomiting, it was just no fun. He's fine now.
Had Aletta 9 weeks ago and started bleeding again this week, I'm pretty sure it's not AF.
