Oh Laura, must be awful, being so sick and also not sleeping well. No wonder you broke down. I find that when I'm really sleep-deprived I just feel weak and the tears are never far away. Moving to Perth sounds like a plan for you, once you get a taste of family support it's hard to not have it around.

Re the ticker, well I am tempted to put just the one in (for pg) but I feel guilty about removing Miles'. Having said that, the site I use is down, has been for weeks so I'm tickerless. Anyhow I think I'm 7w5d along, gee time flies when you are distracted with other stuff like full-on babies!

Lisa, studying that general thingy sounds good, will build up your confidence and that will help no end. I think any adult, if they can read and write, are motivated and don't want to study astrophysics can study anything they set their mind to. I did most of my grad dip whilst pg (and was extremely distracted, I surfed the net, doing BB and also looking up what can go wrong with pg LOL) and still did well, I was just motivated to do it. You, Julie and Laura all studying, maybe Jillian too? will motivate me to return to do my honours.

My 'angel boy' has been a grumpling the last week or so, I am getting sick of him :eek: never thought it would happen but constant whingeing with nothing I do helping is wearing me down. Could be the pg not helping (I do get these OMG what have I done?? moments).

Oooh Laura, sending *conception* vibes your way! You fell pg instantly last time, didn't you? Very exciting.

Gee we haven't heard from Di, Tam, Joja, and Jo for a while (Jo hasn't been on in ages). Hope all is going well with them and their bubs.
