    Hiya,
    yep, you are right about the perfect thing Grub, I felt odd writing that but got lazy i think.

    I'm a bit of a technophobe but I have tried to update a few more photos on facebook and attaching the link. hope it works as andy's not home to help.

    Hey, I'm not special by the way. That love in your voice just can't be helped. You wait til you feel the love in your heart. My poor DH is saying things he would never have believed possible. He's usually all blokey and calling kids "tige", but this one is "princess" and "beautiful" and he loses himself in her eyes for long long minutes and emerges with that "isn't she just amazing" look on his face. You'll go there and so will your lovely blokes. Look after your men because they will surprise you with how they will look after you. the only other girls I met in hospital had supportive partners and I think it seems like times have changed. It's the partners that help with the breastfeeding and settling etc the most and all those practical skills come in handy. they were the ones listening in class when we were just clucky over cute babies in the video.

    I have been trying to catch up and read eveyone's posts and I have just gotten to Grub and the question about have I had my bub... The Answer to that one is no hun... BDT knows what gender I am having as I posted it in my journal but haven't had time to post in here cause DH has been in hospital having an Op to fix his sleep apnea and I think that was what was confusing lol.. So... It's a BOY... Sorry for the confusion Hun and as soon as I can work out the photo gallery I will post a gorgeous picture of him that the sonographer took... He looks just like a person and he has my nose.. lol...

    Hi everyone and I will come back for persies as soon as i'm done reading... There's so much going on..

    Question

    I have no idea where to post this question, but I figure most ladies in here would know what I am on about!

    After having my lap myomectomy and falling pregnant about 2 months later- I have noticed that most days I get "cramping" pain, I dunno if this is just general stretching pain cause is my first bubs, or its tender cause of all the scar tissue from removal of my fibroids?????

    My sis isnt very helpful, she is on her third, so things have been stretched before....

    Never fear... I'm back! Long story short, phone & internet has been disconnected for 3 days over something totally stupid that wasn't even our fault! Been arguing & having yelling matches for weeks with the telco and getting nowhere, finally today after 3 hours of being mucked around I'd had enough and passed a comment about understanding why people go nuts with guns and it was all fixed in less than 5 mins

    Won't do too many persies, a little too much for my poor brain to catch up with.

    Grub: Please tell me MIL isn't still going to be there when DH gets home? If she is, please be kind enough to put pillows between your bed & the wall & buy the poor dear some earplugs eh?

    Murph: Love the new pics. Went back to try & check out the jugs but my screen is really dark so I can't quite tell LOL

    LM: Stay positive hun, all goes well for you!

    Airline: Yay for rising levels!

    Am hoping the silence from Bella means something has happened???


    Questionnaire:

    a) if you had MS, when did it stop? I really didn't get much ms, mainly between 6-8wks I was a little nauseous, I literally only threw up like 3 times. But that being said, I made sure I stuffed my face every couple of hours becasue as soon as my stomach was almost empty I would feel a little seedy.

    b) when did you get big enough that you couldn't lie on your belly anymore? 6 weeks, but not becasue I was too big. My belly has been very sensitive the whole time. I had to start undoing my jeans at 5 weeks and sleeping on my side at 6 weeks.

    c) when were you big enough that random people could tell? Not quite sure. I am a little bit bigger build so I think a lot of people wondered but weren't game enough to say much. I've mentioned it to a few people who have replied "Yerah I thought so but didn't want to say anything just in case." I'm now getting definite comments in public though.

    d) when were you big enough that close friends could tell? 7 1/2 weeks. I just popped overnight. Luckily by then DH had told everyone he knew, as well as a lot of people he didn't even know out of excitement


    e) Did any of you find out the gender and regret it, or not find it out and regret it? No we didn't find out. DH was dead set against it, I was 50/50. As much as I would love to know and love to get used to the name, I think it will be a nicer surprise if DH is the one to find out during the birth.


    f) Should I really be drinking prune juice? Never been constipated in my life and it sounds pretty horrid!!! I had horrible constipation weeks 8 to 12. I swear a couple of times I thought I WAS giving birth! I ate fresh prunes rather than the juice. But for me I have also found cashews and baked beans have the same effect. Also try to have fruit every day and lots of water. And a bit of light exercise will help too (I do aquarobics)

    Think I might come back a bit later and finish this post off. Am really hot, tired and headachy so might go park in the pool for a bit. Hope you're all good and to you all!

    oh murph! i was lookign at the gorgeous baby but THAT thai lunch!!! looks soooo good lol. and the beer ... are you taunting me?? lol.
    jazzy is just gorgeous. It's so nice to see some fnq scenery in the background of the pics.

    lilmiss- CONGRATULATIONS!!! a boy!! so lovely, any name ideas (don't feel pressure to share if you don't wish). I"m so glad it wasn't an early arrival cos i was thinking "gee that time went quickly''. lol ox

    kyrawolfe - fingers crossed for the house darling!

    hi high pants!!

    krikkit - can't help you there darl. but i do get very sharp and painful jabs, have nearly the whole time as bub grows. not sure if that's what you are talking bout.

    anyhoo, had a little meltdown today at a poor rental maintenance call centre lady today. I broke down and cried on the phone cos the loo broke lol. poor lady (who was being a complete cow up til then mind you, nearly fell over herself to help after that). In the end the loo wasn't broken, it was a quick fix and I felt like a complete idiot afterwards. Unfortnautely DH called just after the phone call iwth the lady, and i was bawling my eyes out... so then i made him worried And even worse, when he called back a few hours later, I cried again! poor darling man. just hormones, heat, stress of the past 7 weeks and i forgot to get something for dinner... then the loo breaks on friday arvo! straw, camel, you know.
