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!
