A rollercoaster week

Thu, 24 Apr 2008 07:54:13 EST

On Monday i was booked at 2pm to have my dating scan done and my sister in law was due to be induced to have her baby.
At 6am in the morning we had a phone call that my Father in Law passed away, he was 81 but a death is a death and we all loved him so much!
So my sister in law didn't end up being induced and i still went for my scan. On wednesday we had his funeral and my SIL had slight contractions during the whole funeral service but didn't give birth until Thursday (today) she ...

I love her so much! Tara is an amazing big sister, she shows her so much love and care i thank God for the blessings in my life and for blessing me with these beautiful girls and for protecting them. Now i have just found out that i am expecting a third child, and can't be more thankful!

13 months down the track

Fri, 9 Nov 2007 06:51:01 EST

Well it has been 13months sine having Liana and life has changed a huge deal! For the better of course, God has moved in my life immensly changed all sorts of circumstances, given me healing of many issues and i just praise him for it.
Liana started walking on the 21st Oct, she is still a little hesitant to take off copletely on her own for very long distances but she is doing well, she has about 6 teeth and more coming every day. She says hello, no no no, Mama, Baba, she points to the l...

Nearly 11months

Tue, 28 Aug 2007 03:03:35 EST

Liana is nearly 11months old! I am starting to plan her 1st birthday, i can't beleive its come so quickly. I noticed today that she got her second set of teeth, the top 2, the bottom 2 came out when she was 8months old. These two didn't come out too easy they really put her through a bit. But she is alot happier now.

Liana is nearly walking!

Thu, 26 Jul 2007 08:59:25 EST

Liana is nearly 10 months now and about a week ago she started pulling up onto the furniture and is now cruising along it slowly. She has developed a squeel aswell, ahe will squeel at everyhting! Poo's Tara annoying her, tired everything. I don't know how much more squeeling i can handle, God give me strength!!!

Liana is nearly walking!

Oh my goodness is time flying!! I honestly truly can not beleive my little angel is 9 months old, my eldest turned 3 a couple of weeks ago too which makes me realise how quick life is passing by!!
My aim is to cherish all the time that the lord has given me and the positive side to everything!
Liana i crawling, standing and walking assisted, she says mama and baba. Still breastfed during the night and morning but loves her bottle to. I love my babies!!

My testimony

Sun, 28 Jan 2007 09:10:38 EST

On October 1st 2005 i suffered a miscarriage with my second pregnancy, (my 1st pregnancy i had my daughter) I was devastated, i prayed and prayed and prayed for me not to loose the baby that i so desperatley wanted. But it was not God's will for that child to live here on earth, for whatever reason i am not sure of. I had to learn to accept it so i could move on so i could fulfill the plan and purpose that God has for my life. So in my heart i accepted it.
A few months later i fell pregn...

Liana is nearly 4months

Thu, 25 Jan 2007 06:29:37 EST

Well Liana will be 4 months on in less than a week. It has gone so quickly, she has really grown in to the quutest little girl. She started turning over 2 days ago 23rd Jan 07 and she has nearly outgrown 00 clothing, she is in crawler nappies now also. She is giggling and smiling and chatting alot. Tara is so good with her praise God. I will post again soon.

She's growing quick

Thu, 9 Nov 2006 08:33:19 EST

Well today we officially changedto the next size nappies! I can't beleive it! Liana is growing so quick i am noticing a difference everyday. We are also now in 000 clothing she wore a 0000 today and it was too small. Her hair has grown longer and she is making cute little sounds at me (like she is saying something) while smiling, its really cute.

keeping me up

Thu, 9 Nov 2006 08:20:03 EST

Well at the moment it is 12:30am and darling little Angel has decided to keep waking up every 20 minutes or so and not wanting to sleep or will have a scream. I am really tires and would like to go to sleep but i can't! I weighed Liana yesterday and she weighs 5.2kg which i think is a fair bit for a 5 week old.
GOing to check out the boards now maybe i'll fall asleep at the computer before little miss sleeps!

Emotional

Sat, 4 Nov 2006 23:53:59 EST

I have been really emotional latley, i am crying about alot of things and really can't dtop the tears from welling in my eyes.
Tara is really great with Liana she will help me but is also a bit of struggle at the same time because she wants my atention and i can't always give it her because i have to work. The business is going well and is very busy but this means i have absolutley no time to myself and we hardley ever see Rudy because he is constantly working. I really miss him, he isn...

5 weeks today

Sat, 4 Nov 2006 23:50:07 EST

Wow i can not beleive it has been 5 weeks today since my little angel was born.

She is doing really well, at her 2 week check she weighed in at 4.3kg which was 400 grams over her birthweight! She is very awake and started holding her head up at week 3! She is breastfeeding every 3 hours from start to start, which is a little tiring because its the same during the night. I think she did a 4-5 hour stretch last night which was heaven!
I am really enjoying having another baby but...

Liana is 1 week old

Sun, 8 Oct 2006 21:19:53 EST

I can't beleive it has actually been 1 week since my daughter was born. I also can't beleive i am a mother of 2 gorgeous girls!!

I am loving every minute of being a mum at the moment even with the lack of sleep.

Liana is feeding probably every 3-4 hours and my breasts have settled down now, they were engorged with too much milk and was quite painful, and hard for Liana to feel well also.

Tara is great with Liana, she loves her so much. She will go and talk to...

My labour and delivery

Sun, 8 Oct 2006 21:01:19 EST

I went into labour Oct 1st 6:50am my contractions started. They were regular at 4-6mins apart and getting pretty intense everytime. I rang l&d and went in after my mum came to look after my DD.
When i walked in i was 6cm dilated and it was about 9:30am. I laboured with the gas and that seemed to keep me pretty well out of it.
When the pain got really intense and contractions were coming long and fast i asked for an epidural, i just couldn't bear it anymore about half an hour after i...

1 day till due date..

Sat, 30 Sep 2006 03:11:27 EST

Ok so i am officially full term tomorrow and i feel huge, i have been having alot of tightenings and lots of pelvic and cervix pressure i was in alot of pain yesterday and the day before after a night of some nasty contractions. They let me a bit bruised internally, but nothing else progressed.

I had my MW app. yesterday and i am 2cm dilated my cervix is still 1cm long and she stretched my cervix a little to hopefully help things along. The baby is definitley engaged and has moved...

On a happy note

Fri, 18 Aug 2006 19:48:19 EST

I bought my baby a little outfit the other day, i already have some clothes from Tara but i thought it would be nice for Him/Her to wear something new when we leave hospital.
I have strated packing the baby bag aswell. I am really ready now, just waiting for bub to decided when he/she is..

6 weeks left!!!!!!

Fri, 18 Aug 2006 19:46:24 EST

Right now i am having difficulty breathing, every morning i wake up and feel like there isn't enough air in my lungs and it just makes me feel like crap.

Also major headspins to the point where i will pass out if i don't lye down or sit down. I don't know how much more i can take. i have so much to do before the baby is bron aswell which is stresing me out...

Fed up

Wed, 16 Aug 2006 08:33:56 EST

I am really fed up with this pregnancy thing!! I just want the next 6 weeks to go really fast so i can have my baby already!! I just don't know what to do with myself anymore...

(no title)

Wed, 9 Aug 2006 23:56:28 EST

Overall i feel really good, i can't eat too much because there's not much room left in there but my pelvis feels better suprisingly.
I have officially started to waddle and really can't bend forward to pick up things off the ground, Tara has been great for that, she will pick things up for me if i drop them. My little angel..

The countdown begins

Wed, 9 Aug 2006 23:55:12 EST

I am nearly there 7 1/2 weeks to go!!! I have started to get Braxton hicks every now and then. The baby has really run out of room, the pokes are getting to be a little painful now.
I think we have nearly decided on names, its taken us a while..
Girl - Liana or Tiana
Boy - Kalen

Still not 100% though. Have nearly finished organising everything for the baby, just have to assemble the bassinet and put the car seat in the car.

I am getting a little nervous ...

Another note for the day

Tue, 4 Jul 2006 23:25:34 EST

Tara is not sleeping well at all, i'm wondering if she actually senses that i am having another baby and want more of our attention or is getting scared??

27 1/2 weeks

Tue, 4 Jul 2006 23:23:40 EST

Well wer're nearly at 30 weeks which means i really need to start getting organised!
I am starting to feel imb pokin at me rather than just kicks, its such a beautiful feeling. I think i felt a tiny little elbow push agains the centre of my tmmy today. Everytime i feel that itjust makes me feel so warm and fuzzy, and makes me so much more anxious to have the baby. Bcause i've already done it and i know the feeling of holdong your baby for the first time, i think i want the process to be ...

Mon, 12 Jun 2006 00:48:56 EST

Well its been a little while since i have written in my journal, life has been extremly busy. We moved 1 month ago and sold our unit. Renting a semi now, much more room for Tara to run around and for me and hubby to enjoy.
Pregnancy is going really well, no headaches PRAISE GOD!! Energy levels are really good, no more morning sickness. All of that subsided at around 15 weeks. My pelvis is getting quite sore when i walk too much. My belly is pretty big now and really feeling baby move whi...

Thu, 30 Mar 2006 01:06:40 EST

I'm nearly 14 weeks and feel unbeleivably better, i still have the odd bad day with a headache and some vommiting and all day nausea but the bulk of my week is good, PRAISE GOD!! I don't know if i could have coped much longer. My tummy has well and truly popped out and i am wearing maternity pants now.

Sun, 19 Mar 2006 02:59:03 EST

I can't beleive i am already 12 weeks, time has really gone quickly, its good in a way because i am now starting to feel alot better, i am getting the odd headache and vommiting but it isn't all day long, i am actually starting to feel normal!

(no title)

Wed, 15 Mar 2006 23:47:11 EST

I still have headaches, waking up with one an going to sleep with one. Panadol is doing nothing. I think i better start praying that this gets better, it is really slowing me down and making me cranky.

Wed, 1 Mar 2006 20:01:59 EST

i am really wanting these next couple of weeks to pass quickly...

Tue, 28 Feb 2006 00:19:29 EST

Horrible day

Tue, 28 Feb 2006 00:18:34 EST

Thu, 23 Feb 2006 22:04:53 EST

Oh i forgot i am 8 weeks and 5 days today my tummy has actually started pop out a little.

(no title)

Thu, 23 Feb 2006 22:02:58 EST

Yesterday was a pretty bad day. Headaches, nausea extreme fatigue and vommiting!! Could it have been any worse... No matter what i did i couldn't fix it. I couldn't even wash the dishes, one tiny little smell was making me gag. Today i am a little better. But nausea has been lingering around. I have been sipping on a bottle on Sprite Zero, and that seems tohave settled my stomach a bit otherwise my lunch was goin to come out.
