Sorry I hope I didnt scare you with my story, I am sure you will be fine. The other thing I found helped for a while until it got too bad was a maternity water class as the water took the weight off for a while. Good luck with new bubs
Hi
Sorry I cant help much, mine was horrendous eventually ending in a c section birth as my obstetrician did not think a natural birth would be possible due to the pain and possible displacement or breaking during the birth process. I was on crutche…
Hi there. I am not from Nelson but I went there on holiday. If the weather is lousy the museum of wearable arts and classic cars is amazing and they dont have to be too old to enjoy it. Mine are 5 and 2 and just lapped it up. Outdoors there is an an…
I am 5ft 7, my hubby is 6ft 1. If my daughters height at 2 is doubled she will be 5ft 10 and if my son continues on the line he is currently on to 2years (which he has done since birth) and you double that, he will be 6ft 3. I was always the tallest…
As an ex swimming teacher, for me it is swimming all the way. If he is really active it one of the best energy burners and it might save his life one day.

Hi Sharon'

My friends wee girl was my flower girl at a similar age. Re walking down the aisle we got her Dad to sit at the back and her mum at the front and she ran rather than walked down the aisle in front of me from her mum to her dad, it was very cute, so…
Good luck, I dont want to burst any bubbles but we had an absolute nightmare when our 14 month old stayed awake for 16 hours. He was utterly beside himself, (it didnt help that the 5 year old threw up 3 times too). Zone out, if he kicks off you will…
I am carrying extra weight but that isnt what bothers me, it is the very lose skin around my tummy which regardless of how much weight I lose will never disappear unless I have surgery. I always had a flat tummy before which makes it worse. My 2nd p…
Hi Milena. I need to leave running the group to you at the moment as I am chock a block with work and dont always get onto the site regularly, but I will keep up to date as it is finally nice to meet some like minds. I am in Christchurch I am afraid…
Hi Rhiannon
3 cats, you're lucky! My mum's name is Kiri and my dad's name is Stu. I like to play being Dr Harry and fixing animals. I also like to do drawing and colouring and am learning to write letters.
Thanks for your message Pam. That's really nice of you. I've joined a group on Facebook called Dunedin Mums, so hopefully I'll be meeting up with some mums soon. :o)
