Hi all Congratulations on your pregnancies.

I am just over 4weeks pregnant with what I hope will be baby no 4. Very nervous as I have had 5 losses over the past 5years. 3 before number 3 and another 2 last year. As it took 2.5years to get one to stick last time we didn't prevent after DD's birth early 2011. I'm very nervous this one wont stick either.

Anyway I wasn't ready to officially join but just wanted to reply to WW on the costs of a nanny. There are multiple midwives where I work that employ live in nannies (Aupairs) they are all young women who come to work from overseas to save some $$ to travel. Most only stay for a year. The people I know pay them $200 a week but you also need to feed them, house them and provide a car. I'm not sure how much "time off" they get. One friends nanny still does some bar work on weekends. She also cooks, cleans and does a lot more than she has to do.
