    thanks for the warm welcome ladies!

    i'm sure i'll get myself in here a bit more as time progresses - for now, i'm just kinda flitting in and out. hormone levels are reassuring that all is going ok - but i think i'll need to see a heartbeat to feel a bit better about it all!

    and yeah, MS is reassuring - but it's NASTY! i am supposed to spend all day talking - very hard to breathe deeply through waves of nausea when you have to keep talking lol

    Huge to Possums, Nixon, BW, Queen... and hopefully i haven't missed anyone!

    Well we had our 30 week scan today and babies are both going well lots of kicking and carrying on, they are both doing really well and thanks to gestational diabetes have fattened up, the boy is weighing at 3"13 and the girlie is 3"8 so above average for their ages now, so i can completely understand why i am feeling kinda over it with 7 + pounds of baby in there! Somehow still managing to lose weight with the GD and now at 30 weeks have only put on 3kg. And manageing to keep my sugar levels ok with diet so far... oh and the best news of all......... 11 days of work left before maternity leave!!!! Woohooo!!

    Hi everyone,
    Have been MIA as have not been able to post for some reason, however have been keeping up with the thread. Glad to hear your scan went well TL and sorry to hear about your earlier stressors which I hope have now passed. I also had my 12wk scan and all appears to be going well for the babies. They look like little people now.

    Wow Shannon that must be great to know your babies are growing well and glad to hear you are handling the gestational diabetes okay, albeit an extra hassle. Your maternity leave is well earnt! Enjoy.

    Welcome to Brissygirl and Possums. A big congrats on your BFP, you must be quite relieved after all your efforts! Wishing you both a healthy and =) pregnancy.

    Hi Devon, Nixon, megan and BW, hope you are travelling along well.

    Had some great news regarding my mum who had a lump removed from her breast yesterday, it appears it has not spread anywhere and they may have caught it in time. Such a relief!

    Anyway need to scoot off to work. Catch you all again soon.

    I am mostly well, but in a foul and grumpy mood, so this won't be a long post. My OB appointment yesterday went well and she's really happy with the munchkin... I find out how unhappy she is with me next appointment (4 weeks) when we re-check the iron levels! I'm also seriously annoyed that I have to do another GTT (full on 2 hour torture regime) very soon. We'll re-check the iron levels then and if I don't hear from her I'm good... if they're really low, I'll have a phone call from her... ugh!

    Anywah, headache from hell and there are so many teachers out that I can't go home. I've been sent away from assembly to sit quietly (and so the maths teacher that complains most about the noise in the staffroom yet won't shut his bloody mouth today) sneaks out of assembly and joins me! Seriously not happy (and in extreme pain!)
