It really doesn't pay to stay away sometimes, so many posts to catch up on!!
Chrissy - congrats on passing the 13 week mark - have you told all your family and friends yet? That was so much fun, I loved doing that!
LondonMiss - I know how hard it is being at home without a computer, I hated it which is why I went and bought a new one even though I really shouldn't have...! Hope you have fun at coffee with your yoga pals! A group of us from my antenatal classes have been catching up, it's been lovely to have some company!
Leabie - glad you got to see the heartbeat, it's an amazing thing to witness isn't it?
Wantbaby - don't you just love health insurance? I"m just waiting for ours to say something like that. Mind you, i'm a bit annoyed myself with our OB at the moment - was talking to other pregnant ladies who said as soon as they paid their OB the 'planning and management' fee they hit the Medicare Safety Net and are now reaping the benefits. That hasn't happened for us yet and apparently the way our OB itemises that fee is that it's planning, management AND delivery, so until all three have happened we can't claim things back??? Not so sure about that so will have to do some digging.
Renee - sorry about the metallic taste. I didn't experience it so not sure how to beat it but I know it's very common so i'm sure if you do some Googling you'll find some answers.
Ninah and Miss K - hello! Hope you're both going well and look forward to reading where you're up to
Paula - how did your GTT go yesterday?
Leabie - glad your acupuncture sessions have decreased a little - IVF and pregnancy can be an expensive little trip can't it? I hit my limit months ago for claiming back on acupuncture through my health fund so now I just have to pay full price...
S'rose - sorry your first scan was rushed, in my experience the rest are lovely and long and you'll have heaps of time to see your little one xx
Brunette - so what wild adventures have you been up to this week?!
Juniper - I think others' have covered this already, but in regards to leftovers I would only eat it within 24 hours and that's if it's been stored properly at the right temperatures. DH loves it because suddenly all the leftovers are generally his now
AFM - I'm the same same same. OB appointment on Tuesday - NOTHING has changed since my last visit, even my blood pressure was exactly the same. The chicklet hasn't engaged any more so doesn't look like i'll be going any time soon... I haven't actually tried seducing DH yet - we talk about it in a half-hearted way but to be honest by the time he's home from work i'm generally too tired to do anything, plus i'm not exactly feeling very sexy at the moment so although my mind is right there i'm afraid my body isn't coming to the party...! But as of today, even if I go over then i've got a max of 4 weeks to go so i'm trying to find some comfort in that. Physically, i'm actually okay, some cramping and my back is sore and I can't really get comfy, but emotionally i'm so ready for the Chicklet to come out! I feel like i've got the worst PMS EVER to the point where I even feel sorry for DH because he's copping it all the time. The number of times i've hung up the phone on him this week...
Went to a breastfeeding workshop yesterday which was really good. The midwife was fantastic, really knowledgeable and very funny - but is it just me or does anyone else think it was a little bizarre that there was a MALE in our class? I didn't care for most of it but I did feel a bit stupid 'breastfeeding' my doll with him there watching...!!
Anyhoo, this post is way too long and my brain is now officially fried so i'm off. Have a lovely day all xx
