Dory: Glad your furbaby is gonna be ok, we got George when we lived in Hong Kong and had to pay a few grand to bring him back to Australia, despite the money it was a pretty easy decision! I'm sure you'll be giving him lots and lots of cuddles and getting lots and lots of purrs and sniffy kisses.

Murray: All the reading I've done since my last bloods didn't double says that your levels are just fine! Perfect in fact It's all going to be ok!

Possum: So exciting to have us in here! Eeeee! Got any more symptoms kicking in yet?

HPL: I aint working, lol. Well, I'm studying, actually at the moment I'm systematically working my way through all the Jane Austen novels, realised that if I lived in those times I'd be all trussed up in a corset and would really have to try and curb my tendency towards burping (when it's burping or throwing up, I'll take the burp). Not fond of cucumber sandwiches either. And walking 4 hours a day? So count that out. Hmm, that got a bit ranty, lol. I think you'll know when it's time to stop work. Uni finishes in nov/dec so that will be around 36 weeks for me!

Audax: I can't believe how far along you are! Freaking awesome honey

AFM, I'm still finding it hard. I feel like if I tell myself I'm bringing home a baby in January then I'll jinx it, although one of the nicest things DH said to me was that God/Universe knows how much we love each other, and knows how much we will love this baby, and they want us to pass on that love and be happy. Bit of a hippy sometimes my man, lol. Still concerned about the hcg levels, but I dont wanna keep checking them cos if they do drop, that can be normal and I'd be freaking out for no reason. Just waiting til my scan in 2 weeks (11 weeks scan). Still have morning sickness, although it's night sickness for me, and my boobs are doing such interesting things! DH is amazing, he's doing all the cleaning and cooking, leaves me orange slices beside the bed before he leaves for work in the morning and has such unfailing confidence that we are having this baby that it just makes me love him more. I feel both very lucky and incredibly scared.
