hi all,

It's our 3rd wedding anniversary today, and the first one I will be present and conscious for!! I was deployed overseas for the first and had surgery under general on our second. Can't drink this time, but being present and awake is still an improvement
We're going out for a nice dinner.

Sue, all respect to your GP but she is completely wrong about movement... every book and site says from about 16 weeks is the usual time to feel movement for first babies, and generally earlier for subsequent pregnancies. I've also read that most doctors agree that feeling movement is possible from 12 weeks, though of course most women won't feel it quite that early. I'm not yet 20 weeks, and I can actually see the movement from the outside now, and DH has been feeling it for a couple of weeks. You know your body, trust that your baby is kicking away in there!!

I am soooo tired all the time... much worse than last time. I thought it might be iron but the tests came back fine. I mentioned it to my mother and she pointed out that I've been pregnant over a long time with a short break in between where I had to grieve and also recover from the C-section... add to that the stress and worry that comes with pregnancy after loss and I guess it's understandable that my body would need lots of rest. Does anyone else have this issue??

Love Rozzie
