Tiff, gee I hope your iron levels come up, so that you're not a permanent hospital fixture til the end of the year (how booorrrring would that be?!?!). Fingers crossed diet and exercise does the trick for your BSLs. How is your DH going to manage with all the kids when you have your long stint in hospital?

Shazz, your GP sounds like a disaster...seems that everything he/she has scared you about has been wrong. I'd be shopping around for another carer if it were me. Who knows, perhaps you'll even be able to pack away your straight jacket 8-[

Gab, pre-labour sounds very exciting, not long for you to go now! I've been thinking that I'd like to do a 'Princess Mary' and have my bub at 38w, sounds like you might be doing the same. Are you getting a baby capsule or one of those full converting child seat things?

Hi all, hope your Friday is going well. Is a nice sunny day here, not as hot as yesterday, thank goodness. I am actually sending my hired doppler back today. Had it nearly three whole months, and it was great. But now I feel bub enough that using the doppler isn't needed for reassurance. Though must admit that DH is horrified when I jiggle my belly to get bub to move if I haven't felt him in a while! Am I being very norty doing this, or does every preg woman do this????
