Thank you all for your support re matress I am bossy but with DF it doesn't work. He digs in so I opened with "can we put some money into our holiday account for a new mattress when I'm not pg?" as I don't think what I want now is what I'd want later. It worked and the old one is back on the bed thank god, I'm so tired. Kelly D thanks for the heads up re water breaking didn't think of it in bed to tell the truth, more worried about at work! or at the shops!
KellyD i swelled the other day too and I will be pg over summer. Lots of water and feet up I reccon.
Grub, I think every pg women gets to the point you're at. But you're on the downward slope now so it may be more bareable. I think the sleep number beds are 4K so I don't think unless my xlotto numbers come up we'll be doing that but I am open to 2K after all you're in it for a big part of your life and good sleep is the best thing. even better than DTD well for me atm anyways.
Well DF got me a big pile of dirt today. so exciting but then it rained so I can't get in the garden, oh well maybe after work one pot at a time, I do love my garden now, after we rented the house the tenant didn't water so lots of casulties and things that are Unkillable were a bit sick, I've pruned and pulled heaps over the last 6 months add heaps of lovely winter rain and it's looking good, just needs a good feed of mushroom compost (oh boy it smells, I thought it was bad before but with pg nose it's scary but good food for the garden) and yes I have my gloves and mask to make sure I don't get any nasties anywere. Wouldn't have never done that pre pg!
A week without meetings to look forward to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
oh p.s. MissMagpie, I'm eating humble pie, was a great game to watch hope you didn't deliver in the last 15seconds!

Wow - i've been on holidays for a week and this forum really moves quickly!
Kelly - 29 days to go - nearly there
BDT - 2 little girls is fantastic. I'm one of 4 girls and I absolutely love having sisters
Mels77 - you made it! well done and enjoy every second
A big hi to everyone else
AFM - I'm looking for a little support. I have my first scan on Thurs and I'm absolutely petrified. The only other time I have been pregnant my first scan was awful. They told me that my uterus was empty, the baby wasn't where it was supposed to be and we had to deal with it that day, right there and then. It was such a shock and I remember thinking it was my heart that was emptying, not my uterus. My legs were shaking and I was crying and all I wanted was for them to finish the scan. Soooooooooo this time, I'm really scared.
- double hug for you bridget. i can completely see why you are petrified, i think that is normal. Not sure what i can say to support you because your fear is very much understandable. But i'm going to be thinking all sorts of positive thoughts for you. I hope you can try not to stress too much and try to take some time out to pamper yourself this week.
I have a feeling there will be a flood of tears this time too... but happy tears me thinks! and here's to a nice strong oxoxoxo
smithy - i'm feeling the love, love lol. right back at you guurrrllllffrrreeennnndddd.
hi greenslw - yay for getting into the garden and especially for no meetings! and bigger yay, the mattress war is over. lol. if your dh is anything like mine, you've just got to drop subtle hints and let him think it was his idea. Men are sssoooo easy to manipulate cos they haven't had the baptism of fire of being a teenage girl lol. (hope dh doesn't read this or my trick is up!)
i just got msyelf an upgraded vehicle, a 2nd hand camry but in great condition. I'd been banging on about my car for months, then out of the blue DH finds me a new car it's in teh driveway now ready for me to take to work.
In fact the only thing that is making me even want to go to work is the fact i get to drive my own car. Have 2 days off this week for a visit from sweet SIL. so that makes things a bit easier....
wishing all the girls a great week especially those expecting early arrivals or up for scans
Hey everyone,
just touching base quickly and want to give lots of big love to Bridget and wish you the best possible outcome on Thursday. I hope you are like me, tears of happiness in the biggest possible way at my first heartbeat scan. I think the nurses thought I'd been told I'd lost the pregnancy, but it was just that build up and relief of finding out everything was fine. We'll all be thinking of you.
Grub, I believe what you are describing is the Jedi Mind trick. It won't work on my DH as he is used to always use it on his section commanders in the army when he was a young pup!
Good news on the bed situation Greenslw. Glad you were able to do a few underhanded manouvres to get DF on side
Miss Maggie, I have to take it from everyone else that your team got up, although I still have no t.v and not likely to get one so news is a bit patchy on the outside world.
No news from Jen yet? Hope all is well.
Well Mum's been up visiting and is flying back today and wants to check the weather conditions in Melbourne so better go check. Talk more soon.
Bridget: Good luck on Thursday, I think all of us had some trepidation about that first scan as until we can see something it just doesn't seem real. But I have every faith that you have a good strong one stuck in for the long haul and that everything will be fine for you. Oh and the stress and worry doesn't get any better the further along you go...just a heads up for you.
Thought I would add a nice little note today... Last night we took our 34 week belly photo and I thought I might just measure around my belly to see how big it actually is.... I know I feel and look big but the reality has hit... My belly measured 119cm round and I am only 164cm tall, so basically my belly measurement is 3/4 of my height. It all makes sense now why my back is starting to get really sore... and with 4 more weeks left to go how much bigger is is going to get.
Hi all just thought I would let you know I am still around. Struggling a bit with ms and my other problem. Brace is not helping all that much and they threated me with a walking frame last week. Back off to the physio today so we will see how it all goes. Just trying to make the year out at work. To be honest I/ think I am better at work than at home. I finish work at 31 weeks so heres fingers crossed that I make it till than. All recovered from hossy but morning sickness is still bad. Dog did a big I mean huge poo on the tiles.(she is very old and we dont know how much longer she will be around.) I had to get DH to come home from work and clean it up because it kept making me sick. I even used a whole can a air freshner trying to get close enough to clean it up. Hope everyone is doing well.
thank god, I'm so tired. Kelly D thanks for the heads up re water breaking didn't think of it in bed to tell the truth, more worried about at work! or at the shops!
