LondonMiss - Keeping tabs on who squawks the loudest songs like fun. So far it will go to my 2 girlfriends from school. We had a long arranged dinner and I decided to tell them because I wasn't drinking. They were so excited and it was so nice to have two of the first people I tell be so over the top and excited. Their children are a little older so they are excited about having a baby around again. My MIL reaction was to announce she will have to start making a quilt! I can't answers most of your questions but can comment on these 2.

1. I have been eating heaps of fruit, like 4 pieces a day and haven't gotten blocked up. If you are having this problem and you aren't keen on the prune juice, pear juice should work just as well.
2. DH & I aren't planning on finding out the gender either. I could have been talked into finding out but DH definitely doesn't want to. I am happy with that and looking forward to the surprise. If you found out could you keep it to yourself?

Airline - Iam sorry to hear that you didn't get you heartbeat at your second scan. I hope your BT's results today can put your mind at rest. I remember from the TWW wait thread that you had a slow rising HCG at first so maybe it was just a late implantation. Everything will be crossed till the 9th.

Kyra - Sorry to hear that you didn’t get the house. I hope you find something even better soon.

Kelly - thanks for the book recommendation I will have to check it out.

Grub - not long to go now. Sounds like everything is going to plan..... Just make sure you keep those legs closed for another 8 days, although a few extra would be good as it would be nice for you and DH to have a couple of days together before the bub is born.

Afm - I have been feeling a little nauseous lately. DH and I went out to dinner last night for our wedding anniversary at this posh restaurant we have been wanting to try for ages. I think the food was a bit rich as it didn't sit too well...... except for the apple tartan I had for dessert..... that was to die for!
