Hi, I think Sahra is both a beautiful pronunciation and spelling. And fairly obvious when you see it written. People will always pronounce names wrong. I get asked my daughter's name, and I prou...

Hi Lisa, Number one! Pack your bag early. I didn't and got caught out and so ended up with my dh bringing in stuff I really didn't want (and clothes I hated!). The best list to go by is the o...

Hi all, Figured it's about time I introduced myself. Been lurking for a little while. I'm pg with my 2nd child and just starting to feel movement a bit more regularly now at 16 weeks. My ultras...

I don't think it sounds weird at all. I'm only 13 weeks pg with my second child and already so badly wanting a third. This baby will be my dh's 5th and he is already talking about 'permanent cont...

Hi, I always knew it as a boy's name and my cousin named her son Mackenzie. Then recently a friend of mine named her little girl Mackenzie. I think traditionally it's a boy's name (I've known a f...

Congratulations! I would have died if my hubby did that! I have to admit I straight away thought of braxton hicks but only cause I'm a pregnant Mum! It's a cool name, can't think of too many sho...

How about Maycee for the spelling. I like that. You have such good strong boy's names. Do you want pretty for a girl. Pretty ones like Summer are April, Lily, Alia, Rose. Had some more but f...

Hi I know it's a while since you started this post but thought you may like to hear my experience. My husband is 16 yrs older than me and has three boys from his 1st marriage (now 15,18 and 19)....

Hi I had my first at Gosford with the midwives there and have absolutely no complaints. We're at Berkeley Vale so halfway between Gosford and Wyong. Most of the staff were brilliant, there was o...

Here we have teeth but not very many! Gabrielle got her top 2 teeth just before her first birthday, quickly followed by the bottom two. Now three months later she still only has four! Doesn't wo...

Meningococcal C is on the schedule to be given at 12 months. it's only one shot. Don't forget that there's lots of other strains of meningococcal, esp B which is common and really dangerous so yo...

Hi girls, I haven't done this myself but some of my friends have. So I'll see if I can remember some of the things they said. 1) If you want a bassinette book it early!! 2) One who was bottlefee...

Going outside is a great idea. We were lying under a tree the other day and Gabrielle was thrilled. At this stage she is constantly rolling over but under the tree she was so excited she didn't e...

Please don't feel guilty, you are doing what is best for your kids and for you. And if people around you are making you feel bad they simply don't know what they are talking about. A lot of love ...

We've only just started too, and we're going slowly because Gabrielle is only 5 months, and not that keen really. We've also had the most success with rice cereal mixed with apple. Banana was not ...

I love the name Ella, you should all be very proud of choosing such a beautiful name. I wanted to call my daughter Ella Grace, Ella is my Grandmother's and Great-Grandmother's name, but my husband...

Hi Nat, how did it go at the specialist? Have been thinking of you Karen

Nat, I'm sorry you have had to deal with so much already. Your daughter is a very special little one, and she is very lucky to have you. I had a turned eye myself when I was a kid and it wasn't...

Lidia, one of the babies in my Mother's group sounds like Natasha. He doesn't seem to really like milk and never drank much of either expressed breast milk or formula. He's been having solids sic...

I just replied to something that came up at clinic the other day and this did too. Our nurse recommends that as soon as baby can pick things up with a pincer grip (finger and thumb) stop sterilisi...
