Popping in to say congrats to star for bfp! I know what you mean about DH, if he's like my DP. I charted my temps and so I knew I was pg as temp shot up the day before bfp. I think blokes don't want to think it's real until they see the words on a stick!
Hope all goes OK.
Happy birthdays to all the LOs recently. Sorry for being a stranger, it's been a nightmare few weeks. I am now on IM No2 after the first one (who, IMO, should bugger off back to the nhs) dropped me from a great height after agreeing to look after me and take my deposit then emailed to say she wasn't happy with my risk factors (wtf - we talked them through to death before she said yes).
Anyhoo - best thing in the long run as I've found a better IM who was willing to take me on at the price I'd agreed with the 1st one, even though it was much less than her normal fee. She is fab - loads of experience of high risk HBs, incl VBAC and high BMI etc and she is very chilled.
She even said she'd take a room in a hotel near my due date cos she lives a good hr away from me.
Have been able to give hospital 2 fingers and am picturing a very calm water birth at home in the lounge :)
Twas quite stressful as I realised that for a few days I had no midwifery support at all.
Not much else to tell - C is usual self and has now started answering back in spades, giving DP more stuff to get wound up about.... and we were doing so well on the discipline front.
On the plus side, I have won a birth to potty washable nappy set on ebay, so I'm well chuffed (well, DP won it technically). I have washed them all and await the next few weeks!
