hi mift!! CONGRATULATIONS lovely and welcome to the thread.
I've only got 7 weeks til bub arrives and i STILL don't believe i'm UTD lol. so don't worry about the whole thing feeling strange and surreal - i think that's pretty normal.

for me it really became 'real' about week 14 after the 12 week scan and into the 2nd trimester. when are your scan dates? do you have a due date yet?

i hope you find this thread as lovely and supportive as i have. these girls rock!

hey poppyfairy - where are you? i haven't read a post from you for a while.

seph - gald you are feeling better with the tabs love. the fatigue is something i've really battled the entire time. i only got about 6 weeks in the 2nd trimester wehre i felt relatively normal, it really sucks hey!

hi greenslwe, saph, miss tania, boc, sammiejam, bella, bdt, smithy, lise and all the other mummies-in-waiting.

afm: home today but am about to head into the obs. we'll discuss last week's scan. made Dh's chrissy pressie! it looks good. i hope he likes it (i made him a recipe book, he had all his 'invention' cakes/muffins on scraps of paper shoved into the book cupboard lol).

work held a little farewell mornign tea for me yesterday - they all threw in and got be a $75 vucher for a day spa! sooo excited. i'll be using that next week! lol. and they had a lovely card too... all going out for dinner on friday, i feel spesh.
