Couldn't see what we're having when I had my u/s on Friday, 26 October. SOOOOOOOO disappointed. Next visit only scheduled for 30NOVEMBER2007. Don't know if I'll be able to wait that long!!

Feeling so depressed today ... hubby and I had a HUGE fight. One of those where the crap for the past year comes out. He doesn't understand what I'm going through!! I wonder if i'll cope being a single mom of 2??

At least my 4 yr old daughter and this little busy-body in my tummy keeps me going. H/She has been kicking up a storm since yesterday. Had my 4yr old listening to my stomach and she said: "Mommy, my sister told me that she wants a doll for Christmas"

Hallo Ladies!!!!

I had my boy on 28 February 2008. I was booked off from 26 Jan with Hypertension.

Birth: My little prince was born at 18:15, tipped the scale at 3.3kg's and was 52cm tall. He got full marks (10/10) for his APGAR test. Mommy was also doing OK at the time, but had a week from hell afterwards. No joke ladies - I always thought the C-section is easier (because it wasn't so bad with my first one) but hell ..... if I could, I would have definitely rather done the natural thing.

Any way, little Werner started with full-blown colic at the age of two weeks. He turned 14 weeks yesterday and guess what? When they tell you it "blows over" at three months - don't believe it!! I haven't had a decent night's sleep for almost 4 months and it's really getting to me. I have tried everything from giving him Cream Soda to placing something warm on his tummy but it's just not getting any better. The doctor told me not to worry ... it should blow over. Easy for them to say ...

The big sister is throwing tantrums for the first time. She adores her little brother, but flatly refuses to take a "back seat" for a while. Consequently she's doing all of the wrong things to get "negative" attention. I do involve her with her brother and she loves it, but it's just not enough for her.

Any way, I would love for you to leave some comments on my page on how you dealt with either the colic or the older brother/sister thing. I'm open for any suggestions.
