    Dory - Lol... I had to keep splashing water up over my belly because it was drying and getting too warm.

    Possum - It was 36 degrees yesterday when I got in the car to leave the hospital, INTENSE! (our car tells you the outside temp, love it!) After driving for a few minutes it was down to 33... but still.... ughhh. I swear it was at least 35 inside the house yesterday. Thank god we're getting air-con installed Monday. And I'm planning to hide out at my sister's place in her air conditioned house all day today... lol. Congrats on another great scan. Chubby is good IMO. At my 12 and 20 week scans I was amazed how round and chunky bubby's belly had gotten. Extra chub means extra insulation and stored energy for after birth. So thumbs up for chubba wubba! And as Alish said, The chubby ones really are the cutest

    Alish - Hi hun!

    Angelfish - We love having you here. I'm soo glad to hear your little one was able to bring a smile to your face after your trip to the Drs. It won't be long before you can't wipe the smile off your face. I would say more but I think Dory already said it all so well.

    Tegam - No... and I'm getting a bit worried. I'm hoping it's just a technical problem like no internet service or something......... don't even want to consider the alternatives. I'll have a stalk later on and see if there's been any activity. How's Miss Molly doing??

    AFM - Saw the dietician yesterday (FINALLY) and got my little finger ***** needle thing and the little monitor to read my blood. I was feeling really icky about the whole situation and a bit down, but after going to the information session I feel a lot better, and a little silly for worrying so much. The needle doesn't hurt, and all I have to do is eat like I used to when I was health conscious, LOL. Not so hard at all! I don't have to avoid EVERYTHING I love, I just can only have a nibble. Anyway, speaking of nibbling I'd better get some breakfast into me as bubby is kicking my ribs ferociously........ I'm assuming someone is hungry!

    Oh one more thing, I handed out my baby shower invites (the date is the 20th of feb, 1 week after my birthday) and it's been almost a week with NOT ONE rsvp. I'm trying not to feel gutted, but I really do. I wondered why I felt such dread about deciding whether to have a party etc and why I hesitated to hand out the invites........ I should have known this would happen. My SIL made an excuse about being too busy, and my sister just said 'oh. can you drive me home so I can get drunk?' I would rather NOT play taxi on my special day. That is if it even happens now. My birthday is in 9 days and I feel pretty crummy about this, but dangit I'm not going to let it ruin it for me. If nobody responds, I will send a memo saying 'CANCELLED DUE TO OVERWHELMING LACK OF INTEREST. THANK YOU.'

    Ok, now breakfast time. lol....

    Friends-- I haven't been able to read the messages...I am home from the hospital, but baby Obed was taken by Cesearean about 6 days ago (1-29-2011) because of decreased fetal movement. He is in a neo-natal unit and he is stable but he has problems, particularly with a strange breathing pattern, though he breathes on his own (no ventilator). His MRI showed an abnormality...we are overwhelmed. He is a beautiful little boy and there are no chromosomal problems (thankfully), but my instincts about low movement were correct and thankfully we moved quickly, but something happened in the past week prior to the decreased movement which caused a problem in the brain...we are praying and waiting...and I am so overwhelmed.

    I don't want to scare anyone on this site and I don't want to bring sad news, but I wanted you to know what happened.
    My c-section is healing, though my incision and muscles hurt when I don't have pain med-- so I take the pain med regularly.
    But most of all, my heart just hurts and this little baby, for whatever time we are given, is still my longed for son, and we pray he will survive and improve.
    Thank you for your kind thoughts and prayers.

    Tegam-no we havnt heard anything from s&s and i am a little worried for her.

    Possums-now stop that bubs at 10 weeks are not chubby they dont have any fat until later in the pregnancy Abbi was born at 19 weeks 5 days and was skin and bones with a little pot belly like a little skined rabbit.
    Your baby is perfect size and moving and wriggling around exactly what it is supose to be doing so please try and relax and believe this bub will be perfect.

    Anglefish- that is what its all about give it time this ia all new for you and a big change just try to relax and enjoy your little girl.

    AFM-saw the OB this morning and i am booked in for a c section on the 16th of march he said i still have total placenta previa grade 4 and it is a high risk op so i had to sign consent forms for blood TF and a hysterectomy if needed it was very scarey i am also having a specialist perform the operation not a registrar THANK GOD! and i am on 2 weekly u/s from now on to check it for signs of placenta failure as he said placenta's down low tend to not do so good at the end of pregnancies is that correct mildez?
    Anyway we have 40 days left until we meet our girl.

    oh 40 days ferrals! Thats amazing but at 32 weeks its nice toknow that you are bringing a baby home even if it the placenta stuffs itself.... Hysterectomy, blood tf....bit scary but you have been thru worse odds!

    oh S&S i so hope you are ok and just super busy!

    Forshelby-i didnt see your post i am sorry they have not responded i wish i was close by to give you a hug.
    I think that is why i didnt have a baby shower i was worried people would be to busy to come and i didnt want to be disapointed.
