Lani - you put us all to shame! I've just walked the dog for an hour and I'm shattered and I'm only 9 weeks!

I'm celebrating, last time I had a miscarriage at precisely 9 weeks. So today is a big 'date' for me, I'm so pleased to get this far. I'm still terrified of course, I had a stabbing pain this morning, and automatically think the worst is happening, but I need to focus on all the things that are better - e.g. got a heartbeat etc. Anyway, I'm happy to get to nine weeks and one day.

Kyra - hope the rest of your move goes ok x

Poppy - your MIL sounds like she should be sectioned! ha ha on the wigan athletic kit, that's funny, esp you doing the right colours. Funny what people's first reactions are, my cycling mad father asked how old a child would be before it got a bike! My mother in law and I have already had a minor altercation when she found out our baby would be vegetarian too - I can see that is going to be a 18 year battle. Someone asked me yesterday point blank if their daughter was going to be a godmother - which I thought was rather extraordinary.

Anyway, I didn't come on here to ramble, I came to see if Lani or Grub had popped, and how everyone else is. So hello all! xx
