My Ob has really been wonderful, so I will definitely listen to him. I mean what's one more month? (Check back with me if four weeks time and see if I'm still saying that!)

I'm going back to work tomorrow, which I'm quite stressed about. The people I work with are lovely, and will be really supportive, but I know that it's going to be hard. Last time I was there I was pregnant. It sounds stupid, but everything is going to remind me of the fact that I was finishing at Xmas, and now I won't be. And out of ten of us, I'm the only one without kids! I know that it will be good for me, otherwise I'll just mope at home, but it's still going to be a hard week. We were meant to have our 12 week u/s on thurs.

Lilylou, I think an ipod is a really good idea. Or something to distract you. I don't want to stress you out further, but be prepared for it to be a really long day. Time drags. I'm sure you won't feel like sitting in front of the computer tomorrow night, but please let us know how you've gone as soon as you feel up to it. And any questions at all, or if you just want to chat, we'll be here. I will be thinking of you. And when you're waiting in theatre, just remember that you're in my thoughts. Wishing you all the best.
