Ferrals: Go the preg porn! I'm so glad everythings going well, very excitied to see if you've got one or two lil bubs growing away in there!

Murraycod: I've put on almost 7kg too, a lot of it is boobage and DH kindly tells me my butt isn't bigger, but then he says if it was he wouldent care, which makes me think he's being diplomatic! I figure it's not important how much I gain, just that Tiger's healthy and earthside.

Dory: EEeee! for getting your furbaby back, you'll get soooo many sniffy kisses and purrs!

Ric: Sorry your not feeling well babe, I hope it calms down soon! I felt some swishy butterfly feelings last week and this week starting to get a few solid thuds. I'm still not totally convinced it's Tiger, but I figure in another week I'll know for sure. My mum said she didn't feel anything til 20 weeks.

Iona: Rock out! Awesome news honey, enjoy it!

AFM, had my first midwife hospy appt yesterday, DH and I were scheming how to get a quick scan done if there was a machine in the room, but alas, no machine! But we did hear Tiger's heartbeat with the doppler, so so incredibly wonderful, DH was grinning his ass off, and then made up a song about being a Daddy and how I don't get to be one cos I'm gonna be the Mummy. He's an idiot but I adore him. AND I'm measuring 18 weeks instead of 17! I'm blaming DH and his height for that. Can't wait to find out if Tiger's a prince or a princess, we usually say ''he'' cos the 11 week tech said his guess was boy, but I'm not sure how accurate an 11 week guess is! Struggling to give uni proper attention, but functional assessment got nothing on baby clothes on ebay! Although we haven't actually bought anything yet (apart from being given 3 tiger toys and a sling!). It still feels early to me!

Oh! Mini vent! At the 5 weekish scan, the tech was all like ''we may not see much cos the baby's very small'', at the 7 week scan the teach was all like ''the baby is still very small'', at the 11 week scan the tech said ''remember the baby is still very small'' AND yesterday when searching for Tiger's heartbeat the midwife said ''The baby is still very small at this stage''! Compared the to 2mm Tiger was when we first saw him, 17 weeks is frikkin huge! And babies are meant to be small, if they were the size of cars then I doubt very much that I'd put my hand up for carrying one around for 9 months!

Mini vent done.

Belly rubs for all! xoxo
