Yeah thats two more Palmy ladies this morning Janine! Im really looking forward to it! Every time I'm in Palmy at the shops I wonder if I'm walking past someone from here!!

Hmmmm....I wonder how many of us here are from Akl....I know Emma is....but not sure which part of Akl???

he he Ana, maybe we will! lol

Aimee, I think i wonder that too. but usually you know cos you recognise the kiddies from their ticker spics etc... at least that's how me and Becks (Xandersmum) met up cos she recognised Paris and I recognised Xander.. both istting in the midwifery care rooms too afraid to ask in case we were wrong... lol.

Thats so cool! I could just imagine it!lol

good in the fact i didn't have to buy new stuff, but i think the biggest thing is you have learnt to love this one child for so long and then when you are pregnant the second time you think, well, if it's a different sex, it will be different. but since it turned out the same it's weird cos you love them just as much but in a different way... it's weird. lol. Both my girls are just so different from each other though, that's good, but also bad. i can clearly see already that me and mike tend to have a preferred child, not favourites, but he is closer to PAris cos he practically took over everything when i had PND after having her, whereas this time, i have had no probs so have a more fierce bond with Ayja, than i did with paris. Mike just feels like Ayja intrudes on his and paris's time together, and that paris has been pushed aside.... he's finding it hard to bond with Ayja.   but overall, it's pretty ok.    

how bout you?

hmmm I think when i got pregnant there was so much going on in my life at the time my mum was really sick and we were getting married and having a very active one year old at the time was hard anyway on top of being pregnant and i had a weird feeling that maybe i would miscarry thank god i didnt and i had feelings of would i love this child as much and how could i with having so much love for the first but you do just differently, i try to make sure i have one on one time with phoenix every week. it has gotten easier now that eli is more flexable like he can sit in his jolly jumper and watch us play instead of being held all the time. But i do have a shorter fuse than before that could be the lack of sleep as well. im hoping that they will have a good close bond growing up.
