Ladies from Sept/Oct/Nov 2012 Due Date group, COME IN HERE!!

Hey everybody.... sure is quiet around here! Is everyone as busy as we are this summer? What are you all up to? How are the babies?

We are trying to get our house ready to sell, which is a pain in the butt. I have been struggling to clean, get rid of stuff, etc. What a chore!

Sawyer is almost 10 months.... I can't believe it. He's growing so fast! He crawls pretty quickly now and pulls himself up on anything he can. He is also starting to be a little bit of a rascal--he does things he knows he shouldn't, and when I scold him, he laughs!! He is still so cute, I can't really get mad at him.

Lillian's been crawling, she's cruising still, not walking yet, though her birthday is less than a month away. DS2 has been driving us crazy as always, DS1 starts kindergarten in the fall and starts flag football practice tomorrow, so that's all exciting.

In early July, I had massive surgery to remove three cancerous tumors from my liver. So, I've been recovering from surgery (I have a 13 inch incision along my right abs, a struggle to recover from) and I've been battling secondary complications that have kept me out of work (currently a nasty back spasm on the right side, any suggestions for getting rid of it?) and a problem with my fever (it ping pongs between 97 to 99, it was worse, it was 101-102 for like a week until I started "deep breathing" apparently everything in my body had "stiffened up")

So hubby has pretty much taken over a lot of the hard care for the kids since I'm trying to manage my pain/aches (without medication, or as little as possible) and trying to fit in enough water/breathing excersies (I have a goal I have to meet for the hour...it's time-consuming, trust me.)

It's been really hard. I'm only 35, and this is my second venture down with cancer. I'm a bit concerned where this road is taking me, but I'm trying hard to stay positive (harder than it would seem) and I'm just trying to enjoy my kids, but the back pain is insane.

Sorry for the rant, just knew I hadn't posted on here in a while. I hope everyone else and their kids are doing great

hey ladies! I have to say I use to log on but saw that no1 else post anything and so I kinda stayed away and now I even forget to check on here.
hobber -I Sawyer must be so cute doing that lololol Please post a pic ! I have no1 on FB from this group so I don't see your babies.

aurora-omg that is so sad! I really really hope you will be all better very soon and it will never come back! (((hugs)))

Benjamin is fine he STILL want to be held a lot. That is his favorite thing I guess. He STILL only turn on his back on the bed not doing it on the floor because he bump his head. (no clue why can't he learn to be careful?) He STILL not sitting up alone if I sit him up he fall after a wile and that's it. So have to be there with him or not sit him up. BUT finally he is scooting on his tummy all over the house ! So I can put him down and he is exploring for a short time.Not pulling his legs up yet so not sure when he gonna crawl around finally.(or if he will) he reach up sometimes so I guess he will pool himself up 1 day. Im just kinda worried how is he going to balance standing if he is not doing that with the sitting?
He is going to be 9 months next week ! I ask the doc what she thinks on the checkup. Im thinking he is just doing things slower then the girls . I was really thinking he will be walking by 1 but now I don't see it. So that's it for us.
Some1 else turn to post lol!

Hey Flava, I'll be your facebook friend! PM me your info, because I have privacy settings on my account, so you won't be able to find me.

I bet Benjamin is just taking his time. He'll get to those mile stones. Don't worry. All kids develop at different rates.

[Hobbermittens]

Auroara! Whoa--I'm so sorry you are dealing with that!!! That's scary and awful. What was your other cancer? Do they have any ideas what caused it at your age?

I hope you are doing okay with treatment, and that your back pain eases up soon. Try to relax and enjoy your family, and if there is anything I can do, let me know!!

I really think so too but will ask the doc anyway let's see what she thinks. We go on the 26th. I will PM you not sure what info you need ?I also have privacy setting big time lololol

Hobbers, it was melanoma in my eye the first time (six years) and it was the same thing in my liver--three spots of melanoma that they surgically removed from my liver. I hope the melanoma stays away for good--and no idea why I got it so young (I was 29 the first time) just that I have very pale skin and have blue eyes--I'm a high risk for skin cancer, apparently.

I'd already FB friends with some of the ladies from here and I love seeing updated pics of the kids. If you want to FB friend me, Hobbers and Flava, I will PM you with my name. I don't have strict account settings on FB. Good to hear from you ladies!

[Flava]

aurora-Pm me, sure I will be FB friend! Would love to see all your cute babys :-)

[Flava]

Looks like this place is as dead as it gets. No post for a month. Benjamin is 10 months next week and there where babys born before him in this group I thought at least we see some BD pics . Guess everyone just moved on. Time for me too.
Hobber and aurora I tried to add you guys on BF but can't .Also send message but no respond.
Hope everyone all right.

Flava, I'm here! I check all the time, but there is nothing here. Sawyer's birthday is soon, and I can't believe it!
I will PM you with my info. Maybe I can send you a link to my FB page?
