Ohhh Rainy!! I'm so sorry I hope L is better soon. As you know I totally know what you are going through, it does my head in as well. I guess I just expect that I am a mother now and should be able to take it and deal with it (not true of course I've now realised). Its good to know that we arent alone. I've done the crying in bed thing as well plenty of times. Did you get a decent night of rest last night? I just had a little 2 hr arvo nap then while M sleeps, to catch up a bit. You will be fine with your little newborn, it will be a bit of an adjustment but at least this time around you know what to expect, you are a pro breastfeeder and you know how to care for a newborn. I'm sure your DF will give you a lot of support he sounds great.

Noni - YAY cant wait to hear about your family's reactions to the pregnancy.

Falguni - You are kidding, I hope to god these AB's work. Gosh I had no idea they couldnt not iykwim. Wow you must have been so tired, I feel like such a whinger now. Hmmm I wonder how we will go if her ears arent clear by this Thurs when we are due to fly out. Oh that snake sounds scary, I hate them too, but would much prefer a snake over a shark lol.

Nella - Thanks, glad I'm not the only one getting up at all hours.

Trillian - Good to hear the surgery went well, sit back and relax and heal fast.

Went to the beach this morning, must have tuckered M out big time as she has been asleep since 1ish and its now almost 4.30. I'm not complaining. Mind you, now she might not sleep well tonight AHHHH you cant win!
