Reet - LOL, You probably still look all slim and trim compared to me. I think I bought my first little 'romper' type suit for baby when I was about 15 weeks. Maybe a little earlier. I waited until now to get more things, and when we get back to the GC we're picking up the cot etc. DP can't feel the movements yet, but he's getting more and more 'attached' to my belly, lol. This morning he kissed it good morning, and yesterday he was tickling it and rubbing it all the time, it was really cute. It shouldn't be long until you get those first flutters. YAY! You aren't a bad friend for feeling a bit jealous. Try to look at it this way though: You're further along. You're past 12wks now. You're technically out of the 'danger zone'. Your chances of mc are about 0.5% now. I hope that helped. I would have found your friend's casual mention of 'oh if I don't miscarry' REALLY irritating. Obviously she's never had one, or she wouldn't mention it so casually. I would have made an excuse and gotten the heck out of there. You don't have to feel evil for admitting your true feelings. It takes courage to face up to some of our more 'dark' feelings..... and it's ok. We all have them from time to time. So far you're doing just great, being supportive of her etc.. so don't beat yourself up. I'm here to do that for you if you ever need it, lol.

Sunshine - How exciting that you have your own doppler. I find my furbaby tries to sleep on my belly too, and it does feel uncomfortable. I'm trying to train him to just put his head on my belly and sit on my lap. I think sending the IVF doctors a present is a lovely idea.

Tegam - Hehe, I can see how baby socks might bring on some tears. Your DD must be a sensitive little thing. How cute. And yes, you ARE nearly there! How exciting is that.

Audax - Aww, how sweet that baby has hair. Did you have much heartburn? Apparently that means bubby is growing hair. Sounds like you ran a marathon today.... get some rest, woman!

Angelfish - Stay positive, hun.

AFM - Starting to get a little bit homesick for my furbabies, and just feeling a bit bleh. In other news, I've had a great opportunity to catch up on my knitting (baby blanket) and it's looking great. I hope everyone is well.
