Big welcome to Bridget & Lilmisshavachat, congrats to you both on your pg's and hope you both have a smooth 9 months although there are heaps of fantastic girls in here to vent with.

Murph: This one's for you. I know we all can't wait to have a big belly but if Jazzy is hiding from the world for a little bit take it from me enjoy while you can. My belly is so big now that I am getting very tender around my belly button (which won't pop due to too much scar tissue from 5 previous laps) and I have now started to get pain below my belly button where my abdominal muscles are starting to seperate....youch..... this was something I was hoping to avoid as it takes longer for your belly to get back in shape afterwards as the muscles have to knit together again. Hopefully you will be one of the lucky ones and avoid this.

Anyway, DH & I went out for Thai last night.. Yummy... I can still taste it now. I think bubs really enjoyed as well as she wouldn't keep still during dinner at all, even sticking her foot out of my side which DH could see from the other side of the table. At least she slept well last night for me as I have had a couple of nights of poor sleep. We are also now able to play games with her, she likes to push her foot out and we will push back on it and she seems to then run away but comes back again almost immediately and pushes back. DH is really in awe of this as even though he feels kicking it is like she is responding back when he touches her which is nice for him to have some type of bonding before she arrives.

Anyway, better get back to my Sunday chores as MIL is coming next weekend for a visit for 5 days so want to keep the house at least tidy if not clean.
