    Ahh Jen... The 6 week appointment... I cried at my last one.

    Hot1- many many birth blessing sweet lady. I hope that you have a beautiful empowering birth.

    SJ- glad you ar feeling a bit better about the whole fluid levels thing.

    Eenee- hope you get it sorted soon love. That can't be helping you feel better. Can't believe you are three months now!

    Afm- well plans are coming on for this baby. 29 weeks tomorrow. Man it goes fast! Feeling the fatigue hitting just now. We are adjusting to being a morning family as dd started school three weeks ago. I am not particularly good at mornings. I am getting heaps more things done in the mornings, which is great for my list of 'things to do' but it is adding to the fatigue. Hopefully tho, it is just a time of adjustment for us all and I will feel more able to rest as we get closer to 'B' day

    I think this baby is breech atm. I am not particularly worried about that. I know baby has heaps of time to turn. I have had funny thoughts about breech right from the start. I think that he slides from breech to cephalic a bit, but tends to kick more at the bottom. So plenty of space to move. I don't think my Mw is particularly comfortable with breech Hb. Nor is hubby. Not sure what I would decide to do at that point. Don't really want to birth at hospital, don't really want two scared birth attendants. But I. Won't be making any decisions just yet. Plenty of time. But I think this little boy may prefer the breech possy. Will just have to wait and see.

    SJ: they are so booked out here and they even talked to the sonographer to get me in sooner but no luck. And because no sign of infection I guess it's ok to wait. With DS1 I was 16 weeks before I got to have the D&C as then it takes ages to get into see anyone!

    It seems unjust to make you wait that long Can your GP refer you to another radiology clinic at all? The paperwork I got was good for two clinics, though the preferred one is a longer wait BUT sends a report same day to the GP, so the wait is less, in the end. I guess if they're not that worried to get you in sooner that's a comfort, too, though!
    LOL, Bella at the early mornings! I described my relationship with early mornings only a few days ago...like fingernails down a blackboard I'm so thankful for that bus that stops right outside our house for school, so I only have to get into town by 9am two days a week, and three every fortnight!

    oh eenee i hope that there is no retained product again! that sucks! i always seem to have a hard time PP with that stuff. just keep an eye out for any extra tiredness and headaches as i had that the day of my PPH at 5 weeks PP.

    HotI: retreat into that cave baby! sending you many birth blessings

    Bella: oh wow! look at that ticker!

    SJ: I am so thrilled for you that you have a better headspace and info on the low fluid stuff. i had so much worry in the lead up to DD3s birth and it really sucks to have that underlying worry
