Wow Jess Patrick is really putting the weight on now, Past the 4kg mark WTG!
I hope Tim doesn't have glandula (sp?) feaver. I had it when i was 5yrs old although it wasnt discovered to my parents that thats what it was until i was a teenager and had blood tests and it showed up.
But i was in hospital for a week, couldnt keep anything down and lost a heap of weight. i still remember parts of it, like my bro and sister standing outside at the window holding up signs begging to let them in because they were not allowed in to see me.... They end up letting them stand at the door for a few mins (I was in a ward with sick babies and think it was all highly contageous cause even mum and dad had to wear covers to come see me) Anyway i hope he doesn't have it! I continued to get sick each yr (would always fall around my bday, funnily enough ive just been sick again a few days after my bday!) up until i was about 18. It really whacks your immune system.

Ali- very happy to hear the anti biotics are kicking in. I bled for 8 weeks (last 2 were on and off) and yes its very frustrating isnt it! i felt i got away with not having my period for 8 months but then made up for it for bleeding for 8 weeks afterwards

Baptism etc- funny you should mention this because we are currently trying to work out what to do. MIL spoke to a place who is sending us info. DH is catholic (i am not) and wants him christened catholic, so i told him he needs to do all the research to whats involved (id be happier having a naming day) So it will be in Syd and were going to try work it around same time we are gonna go up for dh 30th .... but w/e we wanted is booked, waiting for info they send but need to figure out what we are doing soon. we cannot really afford another trip to sydney a few weeks later.
