http://ridingthebroom.blogspot.com/2009/11/not-breech-anymore-due-date-today-but.html
Friday, November 20, 2009. Due date today. But not going to happen in this heat. First off, please have a look at the photos my beautiful daughter has posted on her blog of her yr 10 formal, she looks gorgeous! We've had a bit of an "emotional roller coaster" (we just lurve that little saying) in recent weeks. They were just like having a nice tummy massage. So Tuesday we did moxibustion again and at Wednesdays check up, the baby had finally turned head down! We're ready for our new little one, but if it...

Riding The Broom: I have 5 minutes to write, yay :)
http://ridingthebroom.blogspot.com/2010/02/i-have-5-minutes-to-write-yay.html
Tuesday, February 23, 2010. I have 5 minutes to write, yay :). Gisele Aurelia is now 12 weeks old, she's a giggly, happy baby, an absolute blessing. She was 10 days overdue and was born on November 30th at 7:52pm. Not the best labour, but she wasn't distressed at any stage. I wish things had gone differently, but I tried. She's obviously doing a whole lot better being outside of me :). The girls adore their little sister and they are a big help to me, I'm very lucky to have them. And now she's awake :).

Riding The Broom: August 2009
http://ridingthebroom.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 10, 2009. Isn't this a lovely trip :). Have had an eventful few weeks. Ups and downs and round and rounds. But it was delivered 8 days ago! A month after I sent it) and the website still says it's in LA! To send Glen his report which was needed for the application. I'm almost 6 months pregnant now, it's exciting and challenging. Feeling this little one beating me on the inside is funny and the girls think it's hilarious watching her use me as a kicking/punching bag. She laughed at me when ...

Riding The Broom: January 2009
http://ridingthebroom.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 23, 2009. Where should it go? I am removing things from my house that The Abuser gave me, they've been hidden away for months, and because we are having a MASSIVE clean out, I am taking everything from him to the RSPCA op shop, but I have a big beautiful framed photo of Merewether Baths (where I swim almost daily) from Wide Horizons. I don't want to take it to the op shop and I don't want to sell it because I don't want to profit from anything that that person gave to me. As of this morni...

Riding The Broom: September 2009
http://ridingthebroom.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 30, 2009. Just when I thought our case officer had gone on holidays. Glen got a call this morning to say his Visa has been approved! I am so happy! Lots of happy tears. I was so worried that he'd have to go back to New York a few weeks after the baby arrives, so this is the best news that we could have hoped for :). Monday, September 28, 2009. It's a beautiful day, month, year, life. Thank you for emails from concerned people, I appreciate it. Quick update on the baby front. I said t...

Monday, September 28, 2009. It's a beautiful day, month, year, life. Thank you for emails from concerned people, I appreciate it. Quick update on the baby front. Can't believe there's only 7 1/2 weeks to go! I luckily have a brilliant Obstetrician at JHH who took the time to answer my list of questions, he's also very much for vaginal deliveries after cesareans. He did a quick scan to check my fluid and said that it hadn't increased which is great! I found my strength, with the help of many people. L...

Riding The Broom: May 2009
http://ridingthebroom.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 14, 2009. Scuse me while I throw up. Have been avoiding a lot lately. Still trying to deal with this 'morning sickness', frustrated by a friend who tells me that morning sickness stops at 12 weeks and anything past that is a bacterial infection. Uh huh, yes so the 24 weeks of being sick with Allira was a bacterial infection? G sick 24 hours a day, and I can't throw a grapefruit at her head when she mentions "bacterial infection". Experience as much of this as they can, and I thought that se.

Riding The Broom: June 2009

Wednesday, June 24, 2009. Crying a bit and at everything. Doctor's appt yesterday, blood pressure not good, blood tests for kidney issues, checking for pre eclampsia. I know being upset is not helping my blood pressure, it's not that easy. I feel very alone. Wednesday, June 17, 2009. I can't believe they showed this in science class! I'm a bit shocked that this video was shown to a yr 10 science class, yeah it's funny and I laughed, ok I laughed a lot, but wow. Umm. could be offensive to some. Come to th...
