Thanks so much ladies :D I'm biased but I think she's perfect hehe, I can't get over how much she's changing so quickly, it's incredible! She's got a little character already, shes awesome :)

I am going to write up my birth/following week story soon, it's kind of emotional for me but I need to do it, so I hope you all don't mind me posting it here, it will be a essay I'm afraid!

Kellye, I read on the chat thread you've popped a few stitches SLOW THE FUCK DOWN WOMAN! You've had major, MAJOR surgery. I demand you stop doing things like vacuuming & carrying things. Seriously....there's a reason you're not supposed to do anything for 6 weeks after a section.

Aside from that, I'm very glad you're beginning to settle in to a routine & that all is well with Brum Hospital and I'm looking forward to more image spam!

Quick question..I've got a near 17 month old monster boy, and he has recently started hitting, screaming "NO!" and throwing things when he is displeased..Anyone else had this issue? What on earth do I do T.T

I want to say everyone has that issue. Mine have never hit, but my nephew does. Korben is 2 & a half, & when he doesn't get his own way he has a little strop & will throw whatever is in his hand. He gets a smack on the hand & a very stern "no"

Kids push to see how far they can go. It's part of learning, growing up, blah, blah, blah.

36 weeks on Sat woop woop! Feels like it has flown by to be honest. I can't stop eating at the minute either I just seem to be constantly hungry, trying to fill up on healthy stuff but not always managing it!

That's what we do, Tell him firmly "NO!" and smack his hand or bottom, not hard, but hard enough to get his attention.

So it's normal? Other kids go through this? I felt like maybe I had done something wrong, because this is so sudden! He used to be my sweet boy, and now he's just angry! And pushing SO MANY BUTTONS!

Thanks, Lady. I Appreciate it, I'm breathing now *breathes*

Yeah, they do. As long as you continue with what you're doing, he'll get the message......eventually.

So i know its very VERY early days but, im pregnant :D

Found out 3 days before my wedding so i had a very life changing week last week!
The nurse thinks im probably 5 weeks gone so i have my first appointment with the midwife next thursday.

Feeling fine so far, just a bit sickly at times but no spewing yet so its all good.

Im pretty excited!

Erm... YES!!!

I did callanetics right through when I was having Elfin. I missed out all the belly and waist ones but kept up with everything else, just omitting ones as they became too difficult or uncomfortable.

Im 37 weeks on Sat and still feeling okay, looking forward to meeting little one and hoping they arrive 38/39 weeks but seen as my last two have been 40+8 and 40+3 I doubt it somehow :lol:

If you're already doing certain amount of exercise, I think it's OK to continue...ask your GP if you're not sure though. Gentle exercise is considered beneficial, if you already do it. Now is not the time to start up a brand new exercise regime.
