    Melster - If it helps at all, I was told that most mcs happen before the 8 week mark. I know they do happen after that point too, but that's what my doctor told me. When I had mine the pain was accompanied by a LOT of bleeding, and a LOT of clots. The nurse at the hospital told me as long as I wasn't seeing clots that there was hope. (she told me this before the clots started) I know how hard it is though to calm yourself in these early stages when there isn't a whole lot of evidence you're pg, like feeling kicks etc. Just take it one day at a time for now and try to de-stress yourself as best you can. As for that lady at work.. ugh how annoying! If they don't renew your contract I would be asking questions. If their reasoning is that because you're pg, then that's discrimination. I hope everything works out for you! Oh and to answer your question I'm feeling great. My feet are always sore, but now my knees have started to hurt and my hips too. Apart from that, everything is just perfect and bubby is kicking all the time so it's all very reassuring.

    Tegam - Oh, LOL.... I have my FX that I can maintain some kind of peace and serenity as this baby grows up

    AFM - Round 2 of kid-sitting today. They seem calmer today, I haven't had to get cranky yet but we're only an hour into it... lol. Let's see how this goes. *deep breath*

    Tegam - Yay for the new car! Ok baby, all systems are go, you're free to make your way to the exit when ready.

    T-Hopes - Awesome, I had no idea there were fashionable maternity jeans out there! It's way too hot here for jeans atm though.... I shudder just thinking about them. Congrats on 15 weeks!!

    Melster - OMG... I'll launch into my rant at the bottom part..... first let me just say hooray for getting your contract renewed. I'm sending positive vibes your way for Thursday

    AFM - I've had my moments today where I actually thought 'what have I gotten myself into having a baby'. The younger kid has been pretty manageable. Nothing too out of order, and when I get cross he listens and says sorry and does what he's asked! The older one though.... omg. I actually had to yell. I am NOT a yeller. But I yelled and the guy in the drivethru window heard me say 'frigging'. LOL. I don't know if it's just because I'm pg or what, but the older one just WON'T LISTEN and I'm sooooo sick of repeating myself. I'm getting all stressed out. No exaggeration here, I told him in excess of 20 times NOT to sit on the lounge in his wet swimming pants and wet towel, and every time he'd get out of the pool, he'd go straight to the lounge. Then when I say 'remember what I told you. Get one of those chairs and bring it over here until your pants are dry' and I get the rebuttle. 'Oh my pants aren't that wet. they won't wet the lounge. My towel is dry'. Anyway, I have to go now because they're FRIGGING arguing again, and the little one is getting a bit upset.

    !@#$%^&*() give me strength. About 45 minutes until I can lock myself in my room and have a tantrum.
