    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.

    finally a bfp

    Hi Ladies, thought I can join this this thread now, as we have our confirmed bfp!

    I am super paranoid that it wont stick around - its taken us so long to get here. Anyone else like that?

    Hi Krikkit. Since I seem to be the only one up at 4a.m (damn indigestion), let me be the first to congratulate you!! Congratulations on your BFP and I think at one time we all feel like you are feeling now and I guess that's because we know that nothing is ever certain, especially after what it has taken to get here. Take heart though, it's rough and the first weeks are very scary while we wait for the little buggers to stick, but it does happen and all of us in here are living proof. What you are going through is perfectly normal but it gets better

    Saph, you sure are doing it tough. I hope there is some relief in store for you soon.

    Smithy, are you sure you want to go with Charlie for your baby's name? My Charlie (butter wouldn't melt in her mouth, she's so cute-spoodle) relapsed into her old anxious ways and on Mum's first night with us, she gathered all Mum's belongings, high heel shoes, stockings and expensive Oroton sunnies as well as breaking into the food cupboard. Oh gawwwd!!! Too much excitement for one little dog...too much expense, I now feel I have to replace the damn sunnies!

    KellyD, you are leaps and bounds ahead of me although at one stage I thought I nearly caught you. Jazzy still has heaps of room to move and yep I'm now feeling those kind of unpleasant moves you warned me about. Lately she has been moving the furniture every night and I wake up very lop sided and odd looking! At last check last week I was told she was breech, so we have to wait for her to get into position or else try some interventions (chinese medicine style).

    Hands up who has now gone and measured their bellies after Kelly did it?? well I just did...not quite the impressive girth to height ratio as yours though Kel I'm 100 round the belly and 171cm tall (blonde and like walks along the beach..remember Grub, if you're still wanting to date me!) It's a cute mental picture of you though Kelly, your DH must be stoked...so damn preggas!

    Hey Azz, hope you got some good news yesterday and hope you are traveling well.

    Hi to everyone else and keep those tummies rising.xoxo
