It's D Day for Jo so I'm excitedly waiting for news and wishing her all the best. Yvette, thanks so much for keeping us posted - you're doing a sterling job.
Keen - how lovely to see you pet and I hope you are doing well. We've missed you like you wouldn't believe.
Bee - great to see you too and to know you are popping in. Hope things are going well with you and that puppy. I am saving my seat in here for you because you are going to need it this year!
Humphrey - congrats on the wonderful scan and I'm glad your morning sickness is finally starting to ease up. Great results too re risk for Downs so it must be a load off your mind.
Tiff and Gabby - Hi girls! Have missed you both but glad to see everything is well in NewbornLand.
Sal - hope you are doing well and that the little one is out of special care. Looking forward to hearing about it all and seeing his beautiful face.
Sush - best of luck for the test results. I hope everything is good on that front.
Amy - I've LOVED washing the baby clothes. I bought some Lux soap flakes and a very mild baby detergent just to try both out. I love the smell of Lux. It reminds me of when my brother was a baby ... that and the Johnson's Baby Shampoo ... it takes me back 30 years! I've washed most of Willmartin's clothes and blankets and his little bed has been made up for a while. Teddy is keeping it warm.
Had another check with the obstetrician yesterday. I cannot believe that in ten weeks, it will all be over ... or just beginning in another sense. This time has flown!
Tam I think you're a superwoman to even get near the computer let alone post!!
Thinking of you today Jo if everything goes ahead as planned. Hope you and bubbies are well.
I started washing all my newborn clothes with lux flakes (yummy) on Monday and ironed them (for the first and last time!). I magically got a phone call that my cot and change table have arrived so they're on their way from Christchurch. Have to go to Dunedin next Tuesday for ANOTHER scan, this time with the specialist to check the position of my placenta. Damn placenta better cooperate or there'll be trouble...
We went to our first ante-natal class at the weekend too, I had read about most of what she covered but it was good for DH. I did learn some new things though, such as the baby will be blue when he comes out so don't be worried. It got me all very excited again!
Sorry no personals this time - it's "all about me" at the moment!!
Shell, I'm very sorry about Seth. Euthanasia is never an easy decision. Even though your head tells you it's the right thing to do, your heart takes a long time to catch up. You are in my thoughts.
Thanks Yvette for telling us about Jo. It must feel like an eternity to her now so she is no doubt looking forward to the birth today. Here's to two little Australia Day babies and a swift recovery for their mother!
Shell - I am sorry for your loss of precious Furbaby -Seth- we've had to do same thing a year and a bit ago.Take care
Mel -you must be moving up the list now - Good thinking - I didn't pick Australia Day bubs for Jo !
Any news on Jo ?
Been very quiet in here today/tonight - hope everyone's been enjoying Australia Day.
I had two good days with no nausea and V - but just now tonight lost dessert (icecream /banana) and some dinner (steak) - just when I started to worry because it stopped so suddenly yesterday / today -geez I am such a dag.
The OB appointment went well yesterday but I have 5 weeks to wait for next scan -though I will see Prof and Dr in 3 weeks and hopefully hear heartbeats.
Yesterday he didn't listen because said don't always hear this early and makes you worry - and I'd just had 12wk scan a week before. But I think I worried worst not even trying and with no So strangely in a way I am glad for my 'ralph'.
Trish, will email you more pics and details soon, wanting to invite you to their christening, if you're up to it. So glad you are doing so well. Know how you are feeling. Think of you every day and hope that all is going well
-geez I am such a dag. 
So strangely in a way I am glad for my 'ralph'.
