Oh keep i'm so sorry you and your colleague are having to go through that. We had a similar situation at my workplace recently (not my team thankfully) and it caused so much hurt and upset. It's never seen to be done fairly, no matter how it's approached, and someone always loses out. Please don't feel bad that you have succeeded though, that is a statement of how good you are, not of how bad anyone else is nor how fair life is. So congratulations, but (((hugs))) that it must be so hard for you and your colleague.
Beautiful bumpies from keep and imps.
I can sympathise with your dress situation Imps though I have the opposite problem - I bought two maternity dresses from ebay and when they arrived the front is so much longer than the back that I'm almost tripping over it because I'm a short arse and it will be ages before my bump properly lifts the front by the amount it needs!
Loopy I hope you're doing as well as can be, and that you are being kind to yourself. I really understand the need to just crack on for time reasons. I hope that you're able to feel a little less guilty about using the progesterone too. 'What ifs' are horrible things.
I'm down to just a few clustered vommy days here and there now. I'm going with Imps' theory that it's accompanying a growth spurt as geekling's movements have slowed down the last few days and I've had flipping awful rlp/stretching pains, and woke this morning to a bump the size of an elephant. Ok, maybe that's possibly a slight exaggeration
