    Baby Dreamtime...you can have some of my growth spurt if you like!! LOL.... We just got back from the obstetrician and she looked at me and said I bet you are measuring more than fullterm...she was right. We are measuring 42.5 at 34 weeks....no wonder I am so uncomfortable. So we have been told if it is all up to me now as to how much discomfort I can handle (keeping in mind that this boofa is living in a body that is barely 5 feet tall so well and truly no room at the inn). If I get to 36 weeks and cant take any more the she is happy to deliver...so the 12th Feb delivery date just got flexible again.....yikes to think he could be here in as little as 2 weeks....better get that carseat fitted hey!! So now we are down to twice weekly CTGs and weekly visits from here on in...just as well I work from home with all these bloomin medical appointments to fit in.

    Poppyfairy you make beautiful babies...what a gorgeous little one...I am assuming you didnt need to get the army in to get you to hospy through all that snow!!

    Greenslw....not long to go now, yay on getting at least a bit of sleep I am sure it makes a huge differnce to coping skills when you/we get decent sleep at this stage.....

    sorry for no more personals....I can't scroll back any further..hope everyone else is well and gestating nicely!

    Baby Dreamtime glad your ob and hosp are keeping a good eye on you. I hope both your bubbas are well and you are being looked after.

    Thanks Kyra: sleeping without pain but still can't turn my brain off, must be a soon to be mummy thing.

    Thanks Melbel it's amazing what a little extra zzzz makes to your personality.

    Hi Paula how's things going with your two budles of joy?

    ATM well I think DH and I must have got hold of some kind of hormones last night 3 times Maybe it's a sign of a drought is coming!

    Put the baby seat in the car today and I started to sook because Squeak is going to be so tiny. I'm not good with tiny! I know It's different when it's your own but It is all hitting home at the moment.

    Got a few extra spots on my face too so I guess that's means more hormones running around.

    Have a great Saturdaya all

    Back from KI - completely lovely. I would highly recommend a trip if you ever get a chance!

    Sorry, too much happening for persies other than to say, Robin Patrick looks absolutely gorgeous - love the pics with him with DH. And Greenslw - ding dong! As the lady in the diner says, I'll have some of whatever she's having!

    belly rubs to you all, and I hope those of you due to pop soon are well x

    Hi Londonmiss,
    sorry, I haven't been paying attention. did you say you just got back for KI as in Kangaroo Island? Looks like I might be moving from one beautiful sea change to another ( from the daintree over to KI). Keen to hear your impressions if you don't mind sharing.

    Murph and LondonMiss,

    I've just got back from Kangaroo Island myself. Lovely, relaxing, very nice place - slow pace, if you're wanting to move there.

    As it's not exactly pregnancy-related, I'll stop there, but needless to say I love KI. I would recommend a 4WD if you're planning on living there, and a Telstra mobile phone (our Optus phones didn't work much at all).

    Also, as you'll see from my ticker, It's a BOY!

    everyone!
