Hello everyone, how good is it that 2008 is here - this is going to be a fantastic year for all of us.

Satya - well done on seeing the NY in at midnight, i think i was asleep by 10.30ish, only to be woken by an sms from my sister at 12.40 to let me know it was 2008 and that she was full of the party spirit (in all ways!), i haven't even seen the fire works display that was on in Sydney yet, i keep missing the footage on T.V. so, that's pretty dismal of me! Your NYD sounded horrendous, but you seem to be able to see the positive side of things now that it's over and that your home!

Ltl P - how exciting about the prospect of an early bub. The count must definately be on for you. Can i ask though...without wanting too gory details...how do you know your muscus plug is coming away?? I have been having increasingly excess discharge for the whole pregnancy, i hate it. Is the mucus plug similar just slightly discoloured or completely different again?? Given i'm only a few weeks behind you, the idea of not knowing what to expect is a little daunting, or if something does happen, i don't want to come across like some bizarre pregnant woman ringing the midwives freaked out IYKWIM! Sazz, Satya, anyone else experienced it before able to give me an idea??

Hope alls well with everyone and that the belly's are growing nicely.
