Hey Ladies,

I'm supposed to be doing work, but this is way more fun.

Possums - only a few days until your scan. I am still so happy each time reading that things are going so well for you. Hope the constipation goes the way of your nausea.

Aimee - I know what you mean about the food paranoia. I feel like I am still going to wreck things somehow, or that because other things have gone wrong in the past that I will be at greater risk this time. Although, I am sure we will both be just fine. Very glad your scan went well.

Kelly - I just cannot imagine how you must be feeling having two little men squished in your belly. How do you sleep? Do they sleep when you sleep or are they up playing all night. Sorry - I am just in awe of you!

Jacki - how are you going with the GD? Is it under control with your diet or have they put you on insulin? Sorry if you've already told us - I have no memory! Yay for the low weight gain though

Grub - hope you're feeling ok. It's not very reassuring to know that the 'what if' thoughts and feelings don't stop once you're almost at the end. My pregnancies were the opposite way around to yours. DS was relatively easy (still ivf, but first go) and this one took over a year of ivf plus trying naturally pretty much since DS was a few months old. Hope it's all smooth sailing from here on

Airline - 33 weeks feels like a lifetime away from where I am up to. Doesn't sound like a lot of fun, but I guess you're so close to the real thing now. How scary for you to go through that at 31 weeks. It's so so nice hearing (well reading) a pregnant woman saying she feels blessed. So often out here IRL you just hear the complaints and the negative comments about pregnancy and newborns. Of course it's not all fun, but I agree with feeling so lucky to be at this point finally. Good luck!

DR - have a great time in NZ and good luck with your BT and scan.

AFM - nothing new. I told my boss that I won't be there all year. She didn't care about that and was just happy for me. Does anyone else still get jealous when other people fall pregnant easily even though we are now pregnant??? A friend of mine, who only started trying last month just told me she was pregnant. I was happy for her, but inside I felt a massive stab of jealousy. She has not exactly lived a healthy lifestyle up til now and is a bundle of nervous energy. I just don't get it and still find it so so so unfair that I had to go through so much to get here and she just snaps her fingers and that's it. It makes no sense I know, but now she will probably never know the fear that I have felt for the first 3 months and the changes within that will stay with me forever. Ahh, I am just being silly

Take care ladies
