    Ktgirl thats a great Idea with the recipes I have heap of recipe mags here thanks for that Idea. My BL came in last night with a heap of movies for me on the laptop some tv series, old movies and alot of stuff I have never heard of so that should keep me busy for abit.

    Ausgirl yes 27 weeks I was 25 weeks when I frist came in to hossi and I really didn't think I would make it this far so now I am aiming for 32 weeks lets see how I go.

    Bella I haven't weighed myself for a while but when I was 20 weeks I had put on 6kg I am to scared to jump on the scales.

    AFM really missing my DH and DD, I didn't get to see DD yesterday she had a play date with some friends of ours and my DH said he couldn't bring her in today because he has to start work at 1pm and needed to a house inspection at 11. I had just finished my shower and they came walking in I was happy to see her it was only for a little while but I didn't care. DD walked in to my room and grabbed my hand and was walking me out of the room I think she wanted me to go home it was so cute but when I walked back into the room she started to cry she knows how to tug at my heart strings.

    Ktgirl - that's a great idea about the recipes my mum gave me a whole heap of cut out ones just today so maybe i will do that to! 18kg for the whole pregnancy wow thats great - i think i will be over that as i'm 12.5kg already and only 23 weeks .

    Azza i can't beleive your 27 weeks well done every week now is a blessing but i will hard every night to help get you to 32 weeks - or longer!

    Jen hope your travelling ok - your making me nervous that we haven't heard from you! xx

    AFM - went to the movies yesterday and saw Beautiful Kate the aussie film - it was weird, interesting, good, disturbing ultimately worth watching but maybe on DVD!!! Feeling good today just got a bargain body pillow on special at Lincraft for $20 - hopefully this will help me sleep - i'm soooo uncomfortable by night time and my hips really hurt in bed.
    About to have some lunch - speaking of weight gain!!!!!

    Take care ladies.

    Jenc I to am wondering how you are travelling you are freaking me out lady.

    Bella never heard of that movie? Great bargin for the body pillow whaoooo $20 I can remember how said it but one of the ladies in a previous post said they are good for breast feeding as well. I have asked for a laxitive today its a natural fibre supplement called Fybogel the nurses said its not as harsh as the other stuff.

    AFM just heard the boys heartbeats it was hard to find the little ones heartbeat it gave me a bit of a scare but he was was tucked up somewhere and we found him in the end little poo bum scaring his mummy like that.

    hi lovelies
    I am still here! and more importantly, boys are still in.
    i was exhausted yesterday after a rather scary friday afternoon/evening. I had lots of contractions that just didn't seem to stop - even after a shot of pethidine! So I ended up down in the labour ward and I swear they were going to do my c-section right then and there. There were people everywhere, machines, nurses checking when I last ate, etc. Told me to call DH to get up here.
    But they gave me another injection of some other sort of tocolytic medication (I have no idea what) and it worked, thank goodness.
    The upside is that I seem to have a cervix of steel! It's shortening, and the baby's head is moving down, but it's staying firmly closed. The downside is that my uterus is more irritating than irritable - well at least to me.
    I almost wish it would just be one or the other. Either stop all together and let me go home, or let's see some action! This limbo is driving me insane.
    (i don't really want to see action - I know they need to stay in longer, and I desperately want them to), but it is still annoying

    kt - i like your recipe idea. i might see if I can get DH to bring my books up. I'm always having to flick through a handful of books to find the recipe I'm thinking of.

    Azz + Bella - big love. Hope you're doing ok.

    Jenc glad to hear your boys are still baking but what a ordeal you have to go through just to keep them in, thank god for your cervix of steal you are nearly 32 weeks which isn't a bad time to have them if they do decided to come early. It sounds like they really want to come. Hang in there I am thinking of you.

    Hi ladies,

    I had another scan today and my cervix is now 8mm so alot shorter and I have been sitting here not sure how that happened. I had a growth scan as well but they said nothing much has changed they are growing which is the main thing but 1 is still bigger then the other. The doctor that did my ultrasound also said I may have 2 to 3 weeks left til the babies come hmmmm I guess thats better then them coming now. I might have GD my bloods came back high so I have an 2 hour test tomorrow but I guess if I have only 2 to 3 weeks left then they proberly wont be that strict with me ??????

    I am stressing abit today I dont think my DH is coping at home without me I think he is putting on a brave face when he comes in, he has been snapping at me abit, telling me to keep looking for a house and to ring all the realestate up even though I have already we need to be out of or house by the 13 september I might have to ask for an extention for a couple of weeks just to give us some time. I know it must be hard for him working and looking after DD but its no bloody picnic in here either.

    Anyway on a good note I got to go out for a burger and chips today after scan it was really nice im trying to get all the goodies in now before I go on a special diet.

    Hope you ladies are doing great and resting up.
