Hello all!
Hahaha izz I've had "whole new world" going round my head all day!!!!
hope you have a very happy birthday, what are you doing to celebrate? I'm glad you managed to get hold of your sister. It really is very unfair she's having such a rubbish time, but try to remember that it's not your fault. Fingers crossed for her that it's her telling you good news v v v soon.
I'm glad things went as well as they could today collie. what drinking cover story did you go with in the end and did people buy it?? I tried the 'health kick' excuse but I think the accompanying smirk gave things away 
wombat and tunnocks I'm doing occasional pelvic floors when I think about it too. The turning into a snail thing is still freaking me out and end up running to the toilets to check for blood 
Welcome larami and congratulations! Do you have a digital test to hand? It is a bit more convincing to have it literally spelled out. Hope you manage to have a chilled weekend, we all know how scary it is though.
mamap hope everything went well today! Sooo exciting!!!
silver glad to hear everything's ok, you must have been going out of your mind waiting for the 12 week scan you poor thing :( it is v cool that there's so many double differs around here!!!
dacha having an earlier scan is a brilliant idea-I've done that a few times too.
Oi nix how long are you going to keep us in suspense????? 
mummya that link is hilarious!!!
owly sounds like you're having a tough time (((hugs))) I think it is very hard to bond with something so abstract though. I had a theory for a while that whenever I went for a scan they put in a DVD of a scan of a baby of the appropriate age..... Everyone says I'm mental but it could easily have been that because it feels so unreal.
banana sorry you're ill, hopefully you'll get a good night's sleep tonight. Yep leaking is normal-go for a panty liner to save your pants from greasy snail trails or, my personal favourite, shove them up your bum instead...
and before I get a reputation around here, it wasn't through personal preference that i discovered this is better but because I got such bad cystitis from putting it into my fanjo.... 
wombat I feel the same! I so wish I could call round for a real cup of tea and a biccie with you lot every day. Really hope I meet people as nice at antenatal class.
emoo I agree that the dates look iffy-I think it's mine that's screwing it up as my DD keeps moving a day either way but I'm still counting Mondays as the day the weeks tick over IYSWIM.
onions I'm afraid I am too ashamed to join the food lists!!! Are you in a darts team? I used to play darts too! Looooved it when our ladies team beat the men :) we were usually rubbish but pulled our fingers out for the beer leg and always won that!!
