Hi everyone, thought I would just see how everyone is, haven't posted for ages!! Are we all ready and looking forward to Christmas? I can't wait, think Liam will be so excited opening his presents!!
Hope the pregnancies are going ok abi, looby and Kate. We have just decided to start trying again, not holding out much hope as it took nearly 2 years to fall pregnant with Liam.
Liam is getting so funny, me and Martin are always laughing at him!! His speech is not very good at all but he understands everything and is gradually attempting to copy words we say so hopefully that will come on more soon. He can now fully feed himself which took ages to get him to be interested in even trying but then he mastered it really quickly when he tried.
Hope everyone else is well.
Love brownie and Liam xxxx _________________

Hello everyone!
Kate-So sorry to hear about the miscarriage, hope you are ok and feeling better, take care hun.
kic-Congrats!!! Thats very exciting, hope you have a Happy and Healthy 9 months and don't feel too horrid at the mo. Keep us updated
My pregnancy is flying by, only 3 months to go Can't really take it all in but just starting to get a few bits together. This one is said to be another girly, so got most stuff already but the main thing is a double buggy so need to order that soon!
Hows all the little pickles doing? Faith is a no.1 pickle, thats for sure. AS much as I love her, shes really hard work at the moment and pushing all boundaries. Shes just so so strong willed and independent, so strops are a daily thing in this house hold. But hey, we love her to bits and shes coming on in leaps and bounds with her speech. Shes now in a 'big girls bed' also, so glad we have that one ticked off the list beofore baby is here.
Well hope we are all ok and had a good Christmas, Happy New Year to you all X _________________

Thanks ladies!
abi/looby - i cant believe your pregnancies have gone so quick! hope your both keeping well.
Abi - ben is a nightmare! into everything & if we say no to anything has major tantrums. He just flings himself on the floor kicking & screaming. Ive also had to stop the naps during day or he just doesnt sleep at night! but he's also a wee comedian & adorable!
Xmas & n'year were a nightmare! ben was ill at xmas & extremely grumpy then i had a really bad migraine on n'years eve & spent it in bed!
hope everyone well! _________________

Hi everyone
Kic- wow big congratulation to you and h&h 9 months!!!
We had a fantastic christmas and new year. Liam loved opening all of his present. He is so funny and is a really good little boy, and dont have any problems with him really during the day but i am struggling with him at night, he is still not sleeping brilliantly even though he is tired, I have totally run out of ideas of what to do!!
I am a bit worried about his eye at the minute, Martin noticed a few weeks ago that he looked cross eyed on some recent pictures and then he noticed him doing it more and more and now he seems to be cross eyed more than he isn't!! We have got an appointment at the doctors with it on Wednesday so hopefully they will be helpful with it, I am just hoping it is nothing too serious!!
I have been to the docs myself to sort my tablets out as was on loads of things for my migraines which I cannot get pregnant on so have come off everything and been given some milder tablets for if i get a migraine so we can properly ttc now
Hope everyone is well

Thanks brownie! how did you get on at doctors with liam? do you mind me asking what you take for migraines? ive been taken off everything & paracetamol doesnt even touch the sides! Im hoping there's something i can take!
In preparation for new baby im trying 2 get ben 2 walk as much as possible. He loves walking 2 the shops & will walk for ages but omg, the tantrum today in the middle of the street! he wanted 2 push the buggy & went mad if i touched it. I had 2 steer it tho so he threw himself onto his knee's screaming. Terrible 2's a bit early!!! _________________

Hi kic
Doctor has referred Liam to a specialist for his eyes, she said not to worry as its very common and as he is still young he will almost certainly be corrected easily and not have any problems when he is older. They will probably use an eye patch to encourage the weak eye to work harder. Not sure how I will manage to keep a patch on him though!!! Spoke about his speech too as its still very poor but she told me not worry yet. As he has had so many ear infections this has probably out him back a bit but she said he will probably start coming out with much more in the next couple of months.
I have been told to take a combination of paracetamol, aspirin and codeine within 30 minutes of first signs of migraine which are all safe, as well as domperidone sickness tablets as I suffer with bad sickness with migraines. Not had to use them yet so not sure if they work but she said the most important thing was to treat it within 30 minutes, I never knew that before!!
Liam is exactly the same as Ben with wanting to push the pushchair if he is walking and getting mad if I help!! We went for a walk with the dog yesterday and it took us twice as long as the pushchair kept falling over!!!

Aww thats good news Brownie. Good luck keeping a patch on him!
I felt a migraine start at the weekend & took some co-codamol. Its just not possible to spend 3 days in bed with ben to run after so I had no choice & i'm sure last time I was prescribed migraleve which contains codeine so its safe to take. Hopefully once the first trimester passes i'll be ok! _________________
