goodness me...I have to stop reading posts every day without replying - there is so much to catch up on.

Cherished - I still get a kick out of seeing your name in here...same way I feel bout any of my ttc friends

Elise - my DH was lucky to touch me in the first trimester lol...then again, he was nervous as well in case nookie would hurt bub lol. Second trimester has been better but its rare that I initiate anything more than sleep!

Kirsten - They are your stretching pains get used to them! They are here to stay till your bubba joins you for cuddles. Unfortunately I reckon they get worse...I'm at my parents and mum keeps asking if I'm ok, apparently I'm grimacing lol. From my knowledge and experience your to early to see anything but a sac and maybe the start of the foetal pole, I've had HB from 5wk3 days but that was with an internal scan - You'll be fine

Milly - I know what its like, so hard sometimes to stay positive and - annoyingly - so many early preg symptoms match AF (like the pains!) but just try to take a breath and enjoy this bub

Tanya - my hair is 3/4 way down my back - i don't think I could bear to cut it

Greens - that is great news bout your DH and work! My DH is his own boss which means - if he doesn't go to work we have no money

Smallfry - I miss being able to eat! I just don't seem to have the room anymore...sob

Hello to all the other ladies as i am sure I have missed some of you.

AFM: I am just exhausted which is why I rarely post. Whoever said you have so much more energy in the 2nd tri LIED!!! well, ok, I do have more than the 1st tri but by 3pm at work I am starting to struggle.
My job is being adverstised for the time I am away and I have to apply! I am in qld gov and am only a temporary employee - if I apply and get it they appoint me permanently and someone else temporarily (so confusing sometimes!)
25wks - where has the time gone.
A little over a week ago I had nothing more than a few outfits I'd been given - then a shopping monster overtook me and I now have bassinet, pram, clothes, nappies, bottles, breast pump, nappy pails, change table/bath, bibs and some other stuff! IT WAS SO MUCH FUN

to all you yummy mummies!
