Sazz - well no doubt you are in and labouring (if not fast, furious and finished that is!!) Hope holding your newborn is everything we all dream it to be...also glad the time finally came for you, your patience is endearing!

Satya - congrat's, a little man on the way. That's such wonderful news about your results, just great!

Marcellus - i'm glad to hear i'm not the only one to have had striking pain (even though it means you've also had pain, sorry!) I haven't had it again fortunately, so am guessing it was probably just ligaments stretching without my consent.

DJ - can't believe Jenna is 2 months already, the pic of her wrapped on the enormously huge bean bag is gorgeous. I'm with you on the Branxton hicks things, have had them down pat & regular for a while now, the pain I had the other day was nothing like i have had before, but, given it's not occured since mentioning it to you guys, i'm feeling a little better, and of course, bubba is still bounding around so i'm not too concerned now.

Traceylee - the relaxation tapes sound like a lovely idea. I might borrow some from the local library and check them out for myself

Lenny, pass on being the next due...Ltl Panda is gonna come through with the goods before me, i have no doubt!! How are you LtL P??

Well it's just constant rain in Sydney and the Mountains today, i have done nothing but lounge around, read and sleep (sorry for those of you at work!). DH and i sat yesterday and devised a 5 year plan covering everything from relationship, to finances, to family and holidays. It was really refreshing cause we haven't actually done that sort of thing before. We even sat and discussed our parental expectations for bubba, how we would like "situations" handled with her and how we can address MIL issues during those moments when we each want to scream at them!

Hope everyone is well, big hello to those that have been a little quiet lately, hope its cause you're all going extremely well with bub's and belly's growing.
