Mummy friends NEEDED3

NaydineandJellybean — Mon, 20 May 2013 12:53:05 GMT

Hi I'm 23 this year and I have a little girl who is 3 in October, I've just found out I'm pregnant today so very excited but very lonely as my partner works and my little one doesn't seem to have any kid friends because I don't have any mum friends and I feel like she is missing out : I'm in the Brisbane area so please send me a reply if you are interested in hanging out, grabbing a hot chocolate or going to a play centre : x

Hows everyone doing?

KristySnyder — Mon, 20 May 2013 20:13:51 GMT

OMG This 80 degree weather and being 9 months pregnant are killing me! Went to obgyn today and I am 4cm dilated and 80%effaced still!!!! URGH I feel like this baby is never coming out :(

I feel horrible for my son cause he always wants mommy to get down and play with him But I am swollen and sore and really all I want is my feet up and a cold wash cloth over my face :( I do try though...I really hope my son understands :( Cause its starting to really upset me emotionally that he now is running to everyone but me and cry's when they leave the house or we have to leave grandma and grandpas cause im in pain :(

Sorry to vent again girls well off to a nap...

need to vent

KristySnyder — Sat, 18 May 2013 01:32:43 GMT

.urgh...due the 28th yet had in L&D 2 times for contractions on top of each other and back labor...Tons of discharge for over two/three weeks now and just more contractions ontop of it...Hospital won't keep me cause Im only 3cm dilated and 80% effaced and they want things STRONGER!!!! OMG about to just stick a plunger down there and hope to suck her out....

I can't walk right cause her head is right there between my legs, My back is always in pain now, Im more hungry then i was before, I need to sleep with ungodly amount of pillows between my legs urgh....If I move when I sleep I then have a BH contraction and have to pee....Which BTW its now more of a chore to get in and out of bed anymore :(

Oh yes and I have a 2.5 year old son who is going thru the "No" "I don't want to" "shut up mommy" Stage which is making this more difficult....His father is being a pain in my butt...and my husband now has 2 children from his ex 9 and 5 who have no respect what so ever for this house or MY RULES when they are here....

URGH I just feel plain miserable :( Ok sorry I had to vent too....Seeing I haven't slept and these contractions seem to only want to be majorly painful when i just get finally comfortable...So decided I am staying up and not going to sleep...ha ha...

Crazy Adventures from Childhood

blue33 — Wed, 15 May 2013 13:19:41 GMT

Seeing the picture I posted yesterday sparked some good ole memories of growing up. First off, it was 4 of us in the house, so we wrecked havoc! lol. My poor mom. I particularly remember one day, me and my sister closest to me had the bright idea to go "ice skating" in the bath tub. We go in there, and run water and soap up the tub to get it all slippery, take off our shoes and slide around with our clothes on. We were having a ball, slipping and sliding and falling. That was until she pushed me, and I grabbed on to the soap dish and pulled it off the wall. When I fell, I knocked her into the shower door and it was pushed out of the track. (we had a bathtub half sliding door). We were sooo scared. My moma was so mad at us. She didn't even yell, she just went into her room and closed the door. That was the worst. She came out and she said, I guess you all are going to tear the house down. You could have broken your necks! Suprisingly she didn't spank us, but we could not watch tv or ride our bikes for a week. What crazy thing did you do as a child growing up?

Prayers needed

Tricia879 — Tue, 14 May 2013 12:55:20 GMT

While I know most of you are all excitedly awaiting bundles, or trying to rush them out before due dates, be thankful.

My stepmom is pregnant and her son has his insides growing outside his belly, he has to be born a month early because there are so many complications, he will have to spend at least 3 months in the NICU undergoing multiple surgeries. My dad's wife is younger than me and this was unexpected pregnancy for her, she has had many issues and has a tumor in her leg which is inoperable till after baby is born. She is needing prayers that things will go well with baby. She is now in the running for Pre E as her BP is elevated, she has also been dealing with horrible heartburn and now has given herself kidney stones from all the calcium. So just remember it could be SO much worse.. Keep my little brother in your thoughts and prayers.. Right now her C section is scheduled for end of this month, he will be whisked out of her arms quickly for his first surgery..

Hug your LO's be thankful that you have no problems with them and that if you are carrying a baby they are healthy and inside you safely.

Tuesday funny!

What Firsts will you celebrate with your child this year?

blue33 — Tue, 07 May 2013 14:13:24 GMT

I plan on taking DS to the beach for the first time this summer. I am so excited. People always ask why I waited so long. I know, I know, he is two. lol. The truth is, he had horrible recurring ear and sinus infections as an infant and small child until he had his tubes placed last year, so we never really got a break from him being miserably sick with ear infections and congestion to enjoy the beach. He is a little congested, but hopefully, he will be good to go by the end of the month. What first are you looking forward to share with your little ones this year?

KristySnyder — Mon, 29 Apr 2013 15:54:03 GMT

Now I am back to work and I am haven a ton of BH again.

I had to be induced with DS and didn't really have any BH or "real" contractions until I got hooked up to the monitors with the IV :( So I feel like a new mom all over again askign questions....

Hungry before bedtime

bmqcmg — Fri, 26 Apr 2013 00:16:03 GMT

Juliana pulls the "I'm hungry" card sometimes right before bed. I have been telling her no and putting her to bed anyways but I do feel bad and wonder what others are doing. Sometimes I think she is really being serious while other times I know she is just trying to stall bedtime.

At last! Photos of Eli!

Murraydog — Thu, 25 Apr 2013 06:50:10 GMT

Sorry it has taken me so long to post some pictures of the latest addition, but I literally do not touch the computer when I'm at home. I haven't figure out how to post pictures from my phone yet so you all had to wait patiently for these. :)

This is my sweet little boy!

Wordless Wednesday!

Juanalee — Wed, 24 Apr 2013 13:59:12 GMT

Sorry the bump Gods won't let me post my picture. It was a picture that expressed how I felt. But for some reason, it won't show up. This is Blue33, by the way! Share your pictures.

He's here!

Murraydog — Tue, 09 Apr 2013 23:10:37 GMT

I'm posting from my phone so I can't add a picture but baby brother is here!

Eli Robert was born at 11:50 am. Weighing in at 7lbs 5oz. Labor was quick and to the point just like last time. We got to the hospital in just the right amount of time. He was born about 45 min within getting checked in! :

He's so sweet and already nursing like a pro!

Looking for an update...

Murraydog — Thu, 18 Apr 2013 12:06:58 GMT

Her ladies.... Can someone tell me if Jenne over on the Facebook group has had her baby yet? Hope everyone is doing well. I'm hoping to get some computer time tomorrow so I can get on here and post some pictures of little Eli. He's such a sweet little baby! Very easy going! He just slept for 4 hours! Woo hoo!

Confessions of a Working Mom

blue33 — Mon, 15 Apr 2013 13:59:39 GMT

Today, I was running soo late. A storm must have knocked out our power, so no alarm for me, plus ds got up at 3 am wanting juice and crackers. This is normal in our house. He wakes up starving no amount of food at dinner will stop this. I usually stay up, but I fell back asleep. Anyway, I throw everything in the car, buckle in DS, and take off as fast as I can. Right before I hit the highway, 20 mins from home, I notice...DS does not have on shoes. I frantically look around and realize, yep, I left them on the counter. So, on top of being super late, I had to stop at walmart for shoes. I wanted to break down and cry. I am just having one of those mornings where it seems like working and being a mommy is soo hard. What crazy thing have you done recently, because you were rushing for work?

I got good news!

bmqcmg — Wed, 10 Apr 2013 01:38:33 GMT

After my recent loss in Jan. I bawled my eyes out yesterday at my 1st u/s when I saw my baby wiggling around and heart was beating away.

Juliana will be a big sister in November. I am currently 9 weeks.

Juliana keeps telling me that she wants a brother and sister, but I keep trying to explain to her that there is only one baby in there. And she told me tonight that she wanted a baby in her belly.... I told her that we will just leave that for mommy. lol.

Question and Answer Tuesday

blue33 — Wed, 10 Apr 2013 15:41:13 GMT

Hello Ladies, let do a little fun exercise. It is sort of like spot light on bumpie, where you get to ask any three questions that you want to the bumpie that responds to the tread. I will start. When I get the 3 questions, I will answer them. Then whoever asked me the questions has to answer questions asked by the next responder, and so on. It's fun if we get participation.

I am Blue33, ask away!

Stuttering

KristaNbHam — Tue, 09 Apr 2013 01:06:32 GMT

Has anyone else noticed that their LO is all of a sudden stuttering? It's just like overnight she started stammering and tripping over her own words.

Funny moment of the Week

blue33 — Mon, 08 Apr 2013 23:33:35 GMT

I am teaching DS how to put on his pants, shirt and shoes. He still needs a little help with his shirt, but he usually puts his pants and shoes on well. This afternoon, I took off his uniform shirt and khakis and pulled out some play clothes so that we could go outside after work. He insisted, "Mommy, I do it. I know how". So, he struggled and put his pants on backwards and his shoes on the wrong foot. He was soooo proud. I didn't have the heart to tell him the pants were wrong, but I did switch around his shoes before we went out. Talk about hilarious. I kept laughing just looking at his pants. What funny thing has your independent toddler done lately?
