Tweeting through an abortion
People need to know that it's okay to have an abortion when it's needed. e.g. medical reasons or child is conceived from rape but otherwise.. honestly.. women need to really think these things over.…

That sounds like it could be right actually =) I have always been quite tall so was probably heavy by 11.

transition from cot to bed - would love to know what worked for you!
I took the side off my daughters cot a few months back so she would have been around 15 months. She has only fallen out once but i had a porta-cot mattress underneath just in case =) She loves being…

We are in Ranui down Urlich Drive, Yes free is definately the best thing. Im thinkin Wednesday afternoon ... cos im working tomorrow, (although only til 1.00 so we could always do it after that) what day would suit you ? otherwise theres always Friday afternoon?
Yeah we are trying again - but not much luck as yet. Damn I really hope it happens soon - im sure it will once I stop thinking about it so much and my mum is so clucky she really wants me to have another one ; )
Maybe next week we could meet - and maybe go to a park - theres one just down my road which is pretty good.
Just tonight my girl has been throwin up which is awful - must be all the germs that go around at daycare.
Let me know when you are free
I'm glad someone else - goes thru the same as me, people without kids can be frustrating sometimes ; )
Anyway, Tomorrow me and my girl won't be doing much. What time are you doing your food shopping? maybe we could meet after... Chipmunks sounds ok, but i don't have that much $. How much does it cost??? If not tomorrow there's always next week...
I live not far from you I work 3 days a week (mon, weds and fri) but could maybe meet up some time ay??
Yeah. The c-section went well for me, I felt completely safe. I feel like I had a really nice birth. Bunny was sooo good. And the charge midwife was cool...laughed at Nick for not wearing shoes to the hospital and then he had to wear these 'meat work' gumboots. But then it turns out that she's actually Nick's workmates mum, so his work knew about baby before he managed to tell them. Haha. My only problem after birth was still getting pains like this head was crowning for three months, they gave me antibiotics which I didn't want to take, but it went away. But now I heard that it could just be from me having weak muscles, which I do have and it sucks!!!
If I remember right, you didn't have a good time at Waitakere aye?
Yeah, my mum is making sure she'll wear pink. Lol. Oh, if mine is a girl, and yours is a boy, maybe we can swap a few clothes? That might work. Lol. =)
Will you be finding out at your 20 week scan?
I know!!! I just feel like I got over 'problems' with Nick. Really I think its just being pregnant, so we both know it doesn't matter, I still think he's wrong, but I do feel like I've overreacted. But then there are other days where I can't get upset about something if I try, and I have no emotion what so ever. Its so weird! But lucky he is one of those guys in it for the long run and knows we'll get through these 'rough' patches. =)
Haha. Crazy. I guess cause we are a month apart we'll get the same appointment days. Crazy. Mine's at 12:30, that was a good time at the time I booked it, but now Jayme seems to be asleep then. Haha. But I think if I change it, he'll be out of his little routine that he's made on that day and be awake for it. Cause that's just the way it goes.
I know. I wasn't expecting him to be late. I had a show 3 weeks before he came. I ended up having a c-section as his head wasn't 'pushing down' I guess, which is also why I think I didn't actually go into labour. I dunno. I know nothing about the subject really, I just feel like he wanted to come earlier and got stuck, that is just what I feel though.
I'm quite happy that I'll get a boy and a girl. I feel like I won't miss out on anything. Lol. Although I'm not too sure how I feel about having a girl, but then as long as she comes out healthy, I couldn't care less. I'm not too into Pinks and Purples and I'm so having trouble finding the motivation to get girly things. I know she can just use Jayme's but once she's here, I have a feeling I'll want girly things and regret not getting them now.
Two is such a good number though. We're just hoping that I don't end up pregnant at 30 aswel or something, cause we are so looking forward to 'partying' with these two when we're like 40, since we're not doing alot of it now, so hoping to do it later in life. =) Hehe.
Haha. Jayme was late too. 11 days. I wonder if it will be the same this time round. I hope not, I want her to be born the beginning of June. I was told the 3rd at first, but at the dating scan it was moved to the 11th.
Bunny gave my daughter a horrible 'pretend' name. I can't remember what it is though. I've got my next appointment on the 24th. I feel like last time I was seeing her heaps, but this time not so much.
Oh, I can't drive, I have my learners and that's it. I tried learning once, but I just don't like it. I will have to learn once we move out of my parents place though...
Argh, I hate these pregnancy hormones, so not a fan. I feel like I overreact to everything, I laugh about it now, but when something is happening, it sucks!! Oh well, should be the last time for me anyway. I only want two kids. =)
Oh, I like the idea of Chipmunks, Jayme probably won't do much though, I'm not sure. I know where it is, I kinda feel like I took kids there while I was in high school, but I don't actually remember knowing kids. Lol. Its kinda close to my mum's work too. Jayme is also only awake for 1.5 - 2 hours at a time, which makes public transport harder if he doesn't want to sleep in his buggy, but I'll probably just get my dad to take me. =) Its close. =)
Do you get to see many other babies/toddlers?
Yeah, not driving is only kind of a pain. I have my husband and dad who can drive me round, haha. Dad drives around heaps for work, so can sometimes just pick me up and take me somewhere, he doesn't mind as he gets to see his grandson, hehe.
I'm sure it wouldn't take too long to bus to yours, probably just the planning bit. Lol. I'm glad you don't drive, doesn't make me feel so bad for not learning!!
He's almost 11 months. =) Which is cool. =) He's going to be a big brother soon, but he's too young to know what that means =( I don't think he even know's I'm getting fat!
Your two are going to be about the age apart I wanted mine to be, but after hearing how long so people take to conceive, I figured we could just 'try' earlier. Turns out being young and me means I had no problem what so ever. Lol.
Don't know if I've ever talked to you on here, but I do know you from Henderson. =) Congrats on #2, I'm 22 weeks pregnant, and I believe we have the same midwife. =) I saw your name in her appointment book. =) I hope she's working out well for you, I loved her last time. =)
Where is west auckland are you now? I'm in Ranui, but I also don't drive, which makes meeting up hard, but I would like to try to get to a coffee group type thing as I think Jayme is getting to an age where he likes atleast seeing others, whereas before he didn't really seem to care.
I hope all is well,
Rebecca
