    OMG Tiff, you fooled us all! I agree with Sal, nothing cuter than a pigeon pair!

    And buying clothes for a boy and girl! I am so envious! There will be nothing cuter than cute that you won't be able to get for one or the other!

    My bit of news: DH saw an old friend today at lunch and lovingly rubbed my tummy and told him that we were expecting a baby! I almost dropped my handbag!

    Lol! My cheap thrill!

    love

    It's very sad to come in here after a week or so off and find we are one person down i'm so sorry Blue, sending you lots of positive baby making vibes.

    Amy, again I am so sorry to hear about your furbabies. I hope you are doing ok atm?

    Shez - I'm standing along side of you with the neurosis! I actually made an appt to see my doctor last Thursday as it was getting a little out of hand. Everything is making me sad atm and I am worrying about everything as well, not necessary regarding the pregnancy eithor. I was the same last time with Jack, but I don't think it was quite as bad, half my problem is that I can be quite isolated with no "real" people to talk to. My doctor did actually tell me to keep off the internet as well.

    Sal - I'm sorry you are having such a hard time in your home and have had to move out, thats pretty bad.

    I think that is all the sad news over?

    Woohoo to Tam & Tiff on your girls and boys! That is great news although I know everyone in here would be happy with anything!

    I hope everyone is doing ok. I can't believe i'm 16 weeks tomorrow. In a few weeks I will have another scan and am leaning towards finding out the sex atm, but it could change!

    Hope everyone is doing ok!

    Shazz - Hoping everything is okay. Good luck with the testing.

    Sal - that is dreadful that you had to leave your house but I can imagine you being happier back in Ballina. Hope DP gets the job at Tweed Heads.

    Tiff - Congratulations! Didn't I tell you I'm bad at guessing genders? How exciting to have one of each!

    Jo - Hope you are feeling better soon. It's disconcerting isn't it to be feeling sad at a time when you feel you should be happy.

    Thanks everyone for the compliments on the av. She is certainly looking better than I do at the moment with my post-viral complexion!

    Hope you are all well,

    Love,

    Mel

    Shazz, honey, I'm thinking of you and know exactly how you are feeling. I am on a high right now but it will only last a few days before the panic sets in again.
    It's hard to talk about and even harder to deal with.

    Jo, sorry to hear that you are feeling so down too. I don't suppose there is much that we can say or do to make things better for you but know I am thinking of you and we are here for you if you need support. Sometimes talking to people accross the internet is easier than talking to people IRL. I know I can be honest and upfront with my feelings here, where as I sometimes feel I can't share with my friends IRL as I think they will think I am mad. Hope you do find out what flavour you are having in way of babies! :hugs:

    Sal, That's awful. Hope that you find something safe soon and that you can erelax and concentrate on you and bubs again. Good luck for DH's interview.

    Mel, I really hope you start to feel better soon too. We miss you!

    Tam, How are you going? Have you come down from your high yet?

    Shell, you too? How are you going? Has the spotting stopped?

    Amy, how are things with you?

    Sushee, is your friend psychic? Or did Dh tell him? I don't know what I am now, I am an E cup normally in non preggie days...*sigh* I DO know that my boozies are bigger than my belly!!

    Humphrey, lurk away and we'll see you in here soon (I hope).

    Thank you to everyone for your congrats and well wishes, they really do mean the world to me

    Shazz, hope those BT's show nothing but a healthy pregnancy. That's a long time to wait for BHCG results, when I have them done, they're back within 3-4hrs, but I guess that comes with living in the city (outskirts). I get the headaches & heart palpitations too, however that's been going on b4 my pgncy. Apparently they are quite common in pgncy. My ECG showed nothing, they can simply be caused by anxiety (& bad dreams & bad thoughts/daydreams).

    Jo, hope ur feelin better soon. Again, you too Mel.

    Fine thnx Tiff, yep it stopped again. Edited to add: started again, think it's just gonna be an annoyance more than anything. :-)

    Hehe Sushee, did DH secretly blab?

    Heehee,

    I was being unclear, I think. DH rubbed my tum and told his friend that we are expecting a baby. I was tickled because before this, my hubby wouldn't talk about baby names, wouldn't tell anyone we're pg, wouldn't look at baby stuff, wouldn't let me buy a pg book until after my 12 week scan. He's so paranoid that he puts me to shame! So for him to calmly tell some virtual stranger that we're having a baby shocked the hell outta me!

    Jo, I'm sorry about you feeling sad all the time. I remember when I was pg to my son Zaki, I had no family here, my ILs were the devil incarnate, and DH worked really long hours. I spent a lot of time on the internet too, and I remember my Dr telling me that he believed that cyber relatonships could make you feel even more isolated, not less isolated. I don't know if this is true, especially when the internet may be your only contact with the outseide world, but I think a lot of medical professionals still see the internet as an unhealthy environment.

    Take care of yourself and do what you feel is right for you.

    love
    sushee

    PS I love my new ticker!

    how are we all today i hope you are all doing just fine

    Shell ~ i think and so does my entire family think that the heart thing is anxiety and they also think i have freakin' lost the plot and to tell you the truth i am going along with that theory as well my sister has banned me from Belly belly and books and google searching anything until further notice ](*,) yeah right i think i will just keep my mouth shut and tell her nothing :-$ in future

    Sushee ~ awwwww how cute i would have been thrilled too

    Thanks Tiff, Sal, Jo, Melbo, Sushee you gals Rock \/ feel free to give me a cyber slapping when i get out of line 8-[

    Shazz - LOL one of my very good friends actually sends me emails to stay off the internet, I'm allowed ebay and email and my cat site but she has barred everything else LOL! She's probably right! I hope it all goes well for you, I, too am getting heart palpitations but just put it down to "being pg" I'm pretty sure that the heart is beating faster now? I dunno know, something else to worry about ](*,)

    Sush - Your kiddies are gorgeous, how are they going with the news? Have you started a babysitting roster yet?

    Mel - Hope you are feeling better soon, have you tried seeping a bit of ginger in hot water and taking sips every so often when you start to feel sick?

    Shell - I'm glad that everything continues to go well for you as well. I'm sorry that the spotting is still pestering you, hoping that it gets the message that it's not wanted real soon.

    Tiff - I know what you mean about being on a high for a couple of days after an appt, then panic comes back. It's just madness, I wish it would stop, it's very hard to organise things when you are being morbid about things....oh well, only 5 months for me and even less for you

    Jo,

    There was recently a family meeting at my house - to which I was not invited - about how they were going to make sure I was well looked after this pg. This means that no more yelling to get the housework done, DD does all the cooking, DS is looking after the animals, and DH does all other houswork. I went to see my mum yesterday with DD and she gave me the biscuit that her nanna gave her because 'my mum is feeding two now, she needs her energy'

    I reckon I could be pg forever!

    love
