koolio :)

Welcome aboard.....have u looked around for  a forum here of whatever month your baby is born in....u may also find other mums in your area or around your area there too ???

As for me, i meet up with a friend from here every tuesday at her house at 11am. Tho we're from massey and henderson, west auckland...

YAY! My Little Girl Can Now stand on her own (NO HOLDING ON) but with leaning against something!!

Moni21, i know wot u mean there, when we first started play group when Naomi was about umm 4mnths, ( i think?) she was the youngest there at the time..Couldnt even move about so we left it for abit of a while...Glad we did

nope...perhaps c u nextime then if the weather is at ease lol

Neeks maybe someon could give u a lift...i think theres a train service on carrington rd ...if so are u able to catch a train to henderson and meet someone there who can give u a lift? or even catch a bus from henderson?

woohoo a newbie!! welcome aboard SaLin..Just get deez to PM u her details.

Kewl bunnies, il Pass that onto miriam...

laurrenw, she did say around lunch time i think? but that could be anywhere between 12,12.30 and 1pm lol...

hahaha no worries, just ask the bus driver whatever u need to ask him about your location. As long as you dont end up fallin asleep on the bus and get off at your right stopping point "you'll be right" ...........lol

wots funny about that?? lol

monique, perhaps you and miriam  could venture over te atatu way together...walking/busing buds ;p

ok well once we've all got your address, if its ok with u, il txt it to her, and tell her theres a bus stop at the top of your street etc...

Deez im not sure if i can, as i have a 3 door car...Naomi's car seat is in the front passenger seat...shes in henderson. she said she can either bus and/or walk depending on how far the bus goes and walk the rest..

deez i am. at your place or what?? i normally meet up with mizim (miriam) on a tuesday at her place around 11...but im sure the wedneday will do just as good...only thing is she doesnt drive....

np's

Deez, Naomi's Due date last year was 2nd November. But because i had pre eclampsia, high BP, swollen feet etc They had to deliver her by c-section a week early....But hey - i didnt mind - i was glad!! 

Yay for you!! when are you due?? not sure which part all i know shes in Te Atatu

btw: what part of waitakere are u in?

yes anyone including yourself is more than welcome

its at  laurenw's house this wednesday. im not so sure i can make it now.  if i can it may only be for a short wee while (dont know yet)......Normally people do bring a plate of food, having been to meetups in the past....I see your preggies again Deez - Congratulations  do u know wot your having??

im in massey, not far from westgate. Naomi is turning 8mnths 2moro. YAY!

Im hoping shes soon gonna get the nack to crawl cos she can get up on all 4's. rocke herself back and fourth, she just needs to learn the arm and legs action...acch wells in her own time eh lol

YAY a noobie! koolio...where abouts r u and how old is ur bubs?

kool, np's Flissty....

dito...spread the word abit too ..

i need to get ur  addy in te atatu nearer the time.....

schweeet!!....ok so its on then!! the balls rolling!! lol

hahaha i like your sense of humour way of putting that Flissty....Welcome to Westy Wednesdays anyhows . Just looking at your profile, your year of birth, is that a mistake there or what??

haha speaking of court, i just got a letter from the Ministry of Justice in the Mail....Iv been selected to go to court as a jurour on 11th August.....And if it carries on for the 3 weeks after that then i may need to go to all of them but see how it goes...

But yea 2nd July sounds good....il mention it too mizim (her names Miriam) if thats ok?...Maybe not morning as Naomi tends to have her nap around 10/10.30am but any time after say 11.30/12 middayish if thats fine with you? sorry if thats any hassle, i just cant tell how long Naomi will sleep for. lately it has been either 2 and half hours or one and half hour, but today she had 30mins sleep in morning so ya...

schweet...Go for it...Im not far from Te Atatu, Im in Massey so no hassle for me...just get on the Motorway or even thru henderson doesnt matter.

So its settled then?..just need a time and date/day etc...

sounds like u had the4 cravings for the weirdest of things lol...(not that theres nothing wrong with that) lol...As for this thread we havent had one yet.........................

we had one for october thread i think it was....two of which iv been tooo....(think its 2) one was ages ago at western springs, when our bubas were still young, one was then the other one was back in April i think it was, One of the mums hosted it at her house, in gleneden...Iv met mizim also. Shes another westy - in henderson. Her little baby boy was born in september. Been to her place a couple of times too for a little get together..

so is Naomi...(probably) most of the clothes are all 6-9 or 6-12mnths...She is teething again atm poor little mite... gum probs and nappy rash giving her grief...

everyone gets handmedowns...Its great ay...especially if you can get expensive things like prams,cots etc....Theye cost the earth.....A friend of mine gave me 3 bags of baby clothes last month on 25th, Most of them fitted Naomi except for about 10 items. Saves us alot on money really thanx to her cos i dont need to go out and buy her any more clothes - not for a good while yet off anyhows...Speaking of reckoned, there was this girl working  next to where i work, she reckoned that i was having a girl, she was right too...Infact shes still to buy me a drink etc..deal was that if i had a baby girl she would buy me a drink and a bite to eat......Must be something as to how people get the feeling that so & so is having such n such eh...

Mum2Lucas, Breast feeding was ok for me only up until Naomi was 3-31/2months, was only from then onwards that problems started arising so bottle feeding was beneficial for her.

How did everyone know or think you were having a boy right from the word go? Big ups to your family also for helping you out considering your a single mum. I mean "if it wasent for your family, where would you be huh"..Whenever people asked me what am i having and i told them straight that i wasent finding out, i got some weird looks and them asking "how can you not find out"?? i just shrugged my shoulders and simply said "Easy - i just dont" lol...But hey thats just me ay ...BTW: did u have any cravings during your pregnancy?? I didnt really, was only just fruit juice with Vitamin C that i drunk alot of and that was it....

YAY Maya!  i cant remember if iv asked or not..*baby brain* do u know what your having? or not finding out?..One of my plunket nurses is preggies, and shes not finding out what shes having...Its such a supprise to hang in there and find out right then and there at the time of arrival...Half of me DID want to find out, but then again half of me DIDNT...So i stuck to my guns and waited...Glad i did

oh ok my misunderstanding hehe....no worries

i had start bottle feeding my lttle one cos she just wasent getting enuff from me. I do know that breast is best but in my case i had no choice than to switch to formula. Also the fact that she had slight dose of reflux,(wasent major), but shes all good now,so doesnt need her gaviscon now.

nope its not hard work at all using formula...Just make them up as you need them or however..Simple.
