The dad who is my girls best friend and my best friend were boyfriends. Back when they got together in 2000, I was living in Europe and when my bestie was introduced and got to know my girl, he used to say, "wait till you meet my bestfriend, You will love her! You two would get along so well..." When I moved back to Aus in 2003, we met and there was a spark but we are very moral people and did the right thing and never explored it.

We were both in other relationships but when the boys had birthdays and parties etc, my girl and I would spend all night together laughing our butts off. Then when I opened my salon she became one of my best clients. She'd buy whatever I recommended and I'd book her in before hours.... There was ALWAYS a connection.

Then in Nov 08 I held my annual pre xmas party for clients and friends and she finally came to one. She'd broken up with her girlfriend and I was sleeping in the spare room of my house and we hooked up. We have been inseparable ever since. We moved in together quite quickly (as girls do!) in Jan 09.
So in short, We have been friends since 2003 but have been a couple for 2 years in Dec this year.

How great that it is your egg! We had planned to do that but my girl is 38 and an idiot Dr told us they would not do anything like that while I can make babies by myself. He was a
We went to the discrimination board and its still pending but that is another story.....

Your poor girl, baking away early..... Poor bugger. I feel for her... I feel i'm on the up now so tell her just a couple more weeks...

You have bought all your big things???? Don't even tempt me!
Our pram in in a box in our gym room... I'm not getting it out till after 16 weeks....

We have told our mum's and a few select friends (prob 6). One client knows... My staff knows and that is it.

What about you guys? It's hard for us because we are really social. Meeting friends for drinks at the opera bar, going to dinners and wine tastings and parties. Alot of our friends are DJ's and musicians, so there is always something going on. Also, i have turn tables of my own so if I get a chance to get on some decks somewhere, I jump at the chance. So for us to not be out AT ALL is really weird. i have over 60 photo albums on facebook just from big events from the last 2 years.... Luckily it has been so cold and a little rainy. We are running out of excuses and if it was summer we'd be screwed!
One of my friends is moving to Thailand to care for orphaned tigers and is having a farewell this weekend and I feel awful if I dont go. So I will have to pop my head in... But might take some record s to play, It's hard to talk and drink when you are dj-ing so I wont have to answer too many questions....

How are you getting around the not socializing thing?

It's lovely that the people from the clinic keep in touch....
Where are you having the baby? With an Ob? Midwife clinic? hospital, birthing centre?

have you guys told anyone?
It's one of the hardest secrets to keep....
At my scan next week i'll be 12 weeks and 5 days so maybe i'll feel safe about telling people....

Are you getting any symptoms? For the past 4 weeks on and off, my girl has had extreme fatigue, nausea, aching (.Y.)'s and a funny appetite.... Apparently it's common, especially in lesbian relationships as the women are so connected.... We have all the leso prego books! They all say it. She had to come home early one day. its the first time in 8 years she's had a sick day!

I'm waiting for one of the girls from my forum to get back on here and tell me about her scan. She is the first of 10 of us to have her downs/12 week scan...
