Monday, 25 Feb
Hi! Welcome to my 5 pregnancy!Wow i cant believe i `m pregnant again. Its really hard for me to accept it this time around as this wasnt a planned pregnancy. I mean who in their right mind would want 5 kids. But oh well here i am and i plan on having this baby. X

11 weeks and 1 day. I went to the clinic for my check up today. What a total waste of time. The nurse was useless. She never did the proper tests like my blood pressure or my urine. She didnt ask me how i `m doing. She didnt even checked my weight. All the did was give me folic acid told me to take 1 a week and come back in 2 months time! Wish i had money for a private dr!!

A couple of hours from week 16. Wow! Cant believe it. I made peace with this pregnancy and looking forward to the rest of it. Although heartburn is killing me lately. Still dont have much energy but i hope it will change soon. The thought of having another baby kinda scares me. Not one of my kids were good newborns. I pretty much lived in a daze for the 1st 9 weeks. And i guess this one wont b any different. But i can hope cant i? If things work out i `m going for a scan this week. But maybe i must wait 2 more weeks so i can find out the sex of my baby. I `m sure its a boy, but u never know. I dont know how i `m gonna cope with another child. The older 2 boys r in their pre-teens and becoming extremely difficult to live with. The younger 2 is still so small! I still c my daughter as a baby even if she `s almost 2. And oh boy the terrible twos has come early. Way to early. On the brighter side of things my mom had 6 kids in 8 years. And if she could cope, so can i! :)

Monday, 15 September its funny isnt it how some men dont like it when their wives are heavily pregnant - have you seen the websites for the men that do?! i'm thinking of making a bit of money out of this while i'm massive!
i'm kidding.x tandiann -
Monday, 15 September I guess the fear of the unknown is worse than this. I can only imagine what it must have been like to be in your shoes. Especially since I have never pushed a baby. My 1st was the most amazing infant. He is a bone headed toddler/preschooler but he was terrific. I adored him and still do. That is another source of my anxiety. I love him so much and I am so afraid that once this baby gets here that he will feel rejected or replaced. I did when my brother was born. I was 8 so I fully inderstood what was taking place. He is old enough that he will remember life before the baby and I hope that he doesn't always regard it as the 'good old days'. He is my sweet, snuggly, delicate little buddy and we are never apart. He has been away for 2 nights his entire life and the 2nd time was less than a month ago. So we are very close. I just cringe at the thought of him feeling left behind or unloved. But how do you ignore a newborn to color or play hide and seek? You can't. So I just haven't got my brain wrapped around how to manage both of my dear babies. And if you can, you should totally go back to sleep. This lady I know from the Marshall Islands has 3 kids (2,4 & 5) and once the dad and older child are out the door, she is back to bed until at least 10am. But the kids will answer the door so I always tell them not to and remind them to lock the bolt and leave. But, yeah, sleep. You just had a baby and need rest. Heck, you had 4 kids before so you needed sleep way before this one arrived. tandiann -
Monday, 15 September I so am not going to be able to sleep. Dh is on his computer and I on mine and DS playing his game just trying to pass the time and hope drowsiness sets in. It is 10:30pm here and not looking like I will be asleep until early morning. I was tempted to have a glass of wine to ease my tension. But decided against it. It will taste much better after the ordeal is over. So in 12.5 hours we will leave for the hospital to be admited and go through the preparations. I am glad it is almost here but still wishing I had an early morning appointment so that I would just wake and go but we won't leave till 11am. That 3-4 hours is gonna feel like an eternity. And I bet if I do sleep it will be like 6 am when I wake up. Usually it's like 9 or 10. tandiann -
Monday, 15 September That is cool. I like that better than the definition I found here. It was like Latin for 'immorality' or something crazy. Not one I cared for to say the least. So 20 hours left until I am prepped and ready for surgery. Now the nerves are starting to set in. I can feel all the butterflies really moving now. Last time I went to the dr and they said they had to induce. So suddenly there I am being induced. There was no time to stress. Then the 28 hours of labor to follow led by a dr coming in and telling me that there has been no change so he's coming c/s. Again, no time to worry about it and after all that time and pain, I just wanted him out or to be shot. LOL. So this is a slightly different experience and a little nerve wracking. I may or may not check in here before I go in depending on how I feel but as soon as I feel up to it I will post pics and let all know I survived. lol. And yeah, the weekend was just fine minus some stupid guilt trips DH mom sent him on and some very rude and unnecessary comments he recieved from his grandma. Hope your weekend was nice and the week to follow enjoyable. eastern-Canadian-Lady -
Monday, 15 September I really don't know why the colostrum was yellow. maybe mine was a weird colour?!? It's probably hormones, or maybe it has to do with a difference in diet. I try to help, but maybe I'm not much of a help at all, LOL.
I have to run to get Allyson into bed, she has school in the morning. I hope her teacher is patient with grumpy little monkeys, LOL, bc mine will be one tomorrow. Oh well, tomorrow night I will put her to bed early.
take care and have a good night. *emma-jane* -
Sunday, 14 September thanks love! nothing happening! i can't be bothered trying to bring it on with sex either - i'm bored of sex! thats something i never thought i'd say! not long now.how are you coping?i hope all is well with you and the little one x professorpreggers -
Sunday, 14 September No at some point you might want to consider something other than peanut for the birth certificate! Snaily is horrible and I wouldn't put up with it. A couple people have tried to call my son Sea bass (why are adults so fixated on the need for a nick name?) and I've made short work of that nonsense. But you are right, kids can be cruel--naming is sooooo difficult! m0th3r2b -
Sunday, 14 September Thanks Rosie! Still no sign of labour, but i'm hangin in there. I drempt I was pushing my little one around in a stroller last night. I hope the full moon helps my water break or something lol. I'm really anxious now and the waiting is getting more and more frustrating. I had an unsuccessfull pregnancy a couple years ago so it's like this waiting game is longer. I'm so ready to be a mom! I hope all is well with your newest addition to your family. I'm so jealous you had yours before me, but you're pro lol. (((hugs))) professorpreggers -
Sunday, 14 September Oh heavens! I never even thought of sponge bob! What an aweful reference. I named our child Sebastian and i got plenty of comments about Sebastian the crab from The Little Mermaid but I decided only idiots would make that connection. Well good luck with whatever you decide on but Sponge Bob will (hopefully) be long gone by the time he's an adult:) aydensmom -

Friday, 12 September Congratulations!!! How is everything going??? tandiann -
Friday, 12 September My first was like that. Always nursing. It made it hard to go out anywhere, like you said. But eventually, about 2 weeks in, we figured out how to take our show on the road. Then we were going alot. And he still is just a going sort of kid. He gets irritable if we are in the house for too long. That has been fun lately as I don't want to go anywhere. But I think I am in the clear as far as labor goes. I did alot yesterday getting the house cleaned and ready and nothing so I should be safe till Monday. I am so glad we got the house done tho. We need some tile done by the front door but otherwise it is done. I just love it! So easy to clean without all those tools everywhere. I didn't realize how much space they took up. It's like we gained a whole new room. Well, I gotta go check my cookies, don't want them to burn. Let me know if you figure out what my name means over there. Here the definitions are vague so.... Take care. tandiann -
Friday, 12 September You're kidding! My name really is Tandi and no one here has ever hear of it! That is crazy. It only recently started to show up in baby name books but still is very unusual. How funny. I will have to tell my mom. She will get a kick out of it. She was 18 when she had me and was driving around California and saw a street sign with Tandi on it and decided right there that would be my name. But I have met a handful of ppl who say they have met someone with my name but I have never personally met anyone with it. That totally blows my mind. tandiann -
Friday, 12 September So what would be your first language? I was wondering, were you born in Africa or did you move there at some point? I don't know why but that has been on my mind lately. We have moved all over growing up but never outside of western United States. Dh was born in Hawaii, I thought that was neat but not nearly as far away as SA. I think I like the way your dd name is pronounced better than with the 's' sound as that is a soda here so it seems odd. Like naming your kid pepsi or Volkswagen. But to each his own, right? I mean, our baby is going to be Mckella. That is not even a real name, we mashed 2 names together to get it. How is the change from 4 kids to 5 going? I have heard some say it is all the same after a certain number but others say it just gets a little more complicated each time. What is your experience? One was 2nd nature to me so I hope 2 goes as smoothly, but we'll soon see. Monday! carmendayle -
Friday, 12 September Congrats hun, I"m so happy that it went easy and fast for you too. That is great. I can't wait to read all about it. How are you feeling? I hope the babies not keeping you up all night and you are able to get some rest. Take care and post again soon. LizetteCheree -

Thursday, 11 September Congratulations RosieB! I'm so happy to hear your baby is safe and sound! What did you name him? I hope the birth was uneventful and you're recovering well and enjoying your new little one. tandiann -
Thursday, 11 September We know a little girl named sierra. Funny. So far she is cooperating and staying put but we'll just see how these next few days go. Right now we have no front door and the house is mostly tidy but certainly dusty. Dh has just gotten back from renting a hand truck to roll in our wood stove so I better go so I can get out of his way. Wouldn't you know that is where I always am! LOL. I plan to take my laptop into the hospital to keep everyone updated but that is saying they have wireless internet that they will let us connect to. I don't know yet. But if life changes suddenly, which murphy's law says it will, I will try my best to keep all informed. I am gonna pop over to your page and see if you have any pics uploaded. If not, you best get to it! eastern-Canadian-Lady -
Thursday, 11 September In reference to the colostrum question on the 0 months forum:
It seems normal to me. I had my baby on Sept 2nd, (Tuesday at noon) and my milk was starting to come it on Saturday night. Sunday it was mostly milk. 5 days felt like long to me, bc last time my milk was in just hours after giving birth. It has something to do with hormones, and also has to do with the amount of time they stay at the breast. The longer they stay at each feeding, the quicker the milk comes in. Hope this helps. take care
