DR - that's pretty funny! I was just talking with a friend who is having her first child and I remembered how many more issues there were to deal with and how difficult it is when it's your first, but you've made me realise that it will probably be just as tricky this time - only the problems we encounter will be different. Bring it on!!!!

Possums - how are you going girl? Hanging in there still I hope!

Trishy - thanks for the tax reminder - would be nice to have that sorted before baby comes - oh well, I'll put it on the list and see how far I get. Did you feel ok when you were breastfeeding your DD? If so, can you just kind of make sure you are eating more than enough to make up for any you might lose? Maybe it's not that simple. I was connected to drips during my last labour - which is another reason I would so love to not be induced this time around. I mean, It's no big deal really, but every time you have to pee or move you have to take this damn thing with you. But, in the long run it's no biggy.

Oneday - so glad you are enjoying your pregnancy. Past the horrible fears of the first trimester.

Hi to everyone else - kass, JBM and everyone else!

AFM - not much happening. Still enjoying things, but think I am pretty ready and willing to go anytime now. I really don't think anything will happen for at least a couple of weeks. I am doing weekly acupuncture now to hopefully get things started before the hospital can attack me with induction drugs! I really have to try to remember to keep an open mind about things. I am thinking of taking up a friend's offer of being an extra or alternative support person for labour and birth. Who are you guys having with you?
