When am I going to learn to come on this thread more often??? lol

JJ - Oh boy that totally sucks I'm really sorry about the oral surgeon and all your car trouble. It must be a tough decision to make... coedine vs chair and local. I don't envy you. Will keep you in my prayers! Glad bub is going well though


LysnDan - Sorry about your horrible week last week hun *hugs* Hope things are much better for you this week! How is your Dad?

WanneBeMum - Are you still here? Thinking of you a lot! I have a friend who was due on Sunday and nothing yet! I keep stalking her and her hubby's FB's like a mad thing, lol. DH's cousin also had a bub the other day. Gorgeous little boy called Beau Hoping it's very soon for you! Thanks for thinking of us too... you are also a wonderful support and encouragement! *hugs*


BecnXavi - Ooh tongs might be a good idea, lol. I have started picking things up with my feet or bending sideways too, lol. Thinking of you and your baby girl. Isn't it wonderful that we can find out these things before birth? I mean it's obviously NOT wonderful about her heart, but the fact that we live in this time period and can do something about it is! Hope she is continuing to do well xxx

CT - Glad you can chill with your partner while you wait for bub Have fun on your travels! Hope your symptoms are back in full force! lol

Blondtress - Oh I really hope you don't have GD, but if you do I hope the OBs and dietitian are very helpful and lovely to you. Yay for low Downs' results. DH will enjoy the next scan Hahaha love your PG announcement! I am also going to have a high electricity bill this summer! It's 33 today but going up to 36 tomorrow and 37 Thursday! EEEK!

angelfish - Oh not the easiest of things to do! I guess all you can do is sleep while your baby is sleeping and try to do calm/relaxing things when not.

MelM - Rellies are sometimes not as helpful as they think they're being are they! I don't know anyone who could go through a m/c and not worry about the second pregnancy. It's totally normal! Sticky vibes to you! Hope the acupuncture helped.

Rach83 - I am so very sorry hun *huge hugs to you*

Loops - I also feel like I'm not growing much, but it's hard to tell. Some people tell me I look huge and others say I'm not very big, lol. Who knows? Hope your recent 'm/s' goes away!

TM - Hope bub settles down, turns around and stays put for much longer!



AFM - I've just been sort of hanging out waiting since my GD and iron test last 1.5 weeks ago. I have an appointment tomorrow though, so should find out how things are going. I have to say, I quite like having more regular appointments now. It gives me the reassurance every 2 weeks. Not that I go around worrying all day, but it's nice to have some kind of update. Then when people ask I can give them an actual update rather than, "Oh yeah, it's going well I assume" lol. Bub has been quite quiet recently until today. I think I'm noticing a pattern.... I have a few days of feeling like I ate a whale in the evening and not being able to each much after 5-6pm. Then I have a few days of being absolutely starving and scoffing food all day. Then I have a few days of a really quiet bub movement wise. Then I have a few quite active days. It's a weird pattern but it must be bub's growth cycle or something. I don't feel like my tummy has expanded further in the last 2-3 weeks, but at my last appointment the OB said there was still a lot of room in my uterus. So maybe bub is just catching up to my uterus before it pushes it further out again? Dunno?

I think I'm having sciatica, but not sure. What does it feel like? Well my 'symptoms' are a sharp pain down my right buttock after I've been sitting for a while, or if I move suddenly, like getting up or like changing seating position. It's not nice but it's fairly mild at the moment. Hopefully it doesn't get any worse!

That's about me for now! Hopefully I'll have more to update on tomorrow after my appointment (and it will be GOOD updates!)
