re: medicare card. I applied for mine in person and they gave me a piece of paper as a temp card (sort of like an interim drivers licence) If you haven't got one, but have applied for one, just let the doc know, they should let you sort out the acct once you have the card - or maybe that's just my lovely doc..

How's everyone going getting back into their clothes? I'm not having much luck at all - so envious of those who can fit into their clothes straight away! Finally found a pair of jeans that fit me, just to get me through until my clothes fit as I was getting desperate (and depressed!). I also went through my cupboard and got rid of everything that didn't fit me BEFORE I was pregnant, as I figure by the time I'm able to wear them, they'll be out-dated, and I was sick of seeing so many clothes in my cupboard and not being able to wear any of them.

showers - Josiah has showers with Mark and loves them. He's holding himself pretty well and tries to put the back of his head under the water. I try for every day, just so he has a bit of nappy free time (shower is safer than anywhere else!) and smells nice and fresth, but if Mark is running late, or bubs is sleeping then every 2nd day. I gave up on the baths, Janae gets in the way trying to help. As he gets a bit bigger I'll get him in the bath again.

Speaking of baths, I better get Janae out, she's been playing in there for almost an hour!! I keep topping up the water just so it's still warm...
