Hi all, haven't posted for a while, but have been catching up. Slightly bad times although nothing compared to some. Turns out I now have a heart murmur and irregular heartbeat, all of which should go as I give birth but need to have a heart ultrasound to make sure its nothing more long term/serious etc and to make sure the anethetist knows for c section - which is now booked. Then sister rang me to tell me that nephew has slap cheek which whilst very small chance of problem, happened to be seeing midwife who wasn't impressed and took bloods and said cross fingers, and whilst I was there it turns out the baby is measuring 27-28 weeks, not 32 or at least I am, so am off for another scan next week to see if its just me hiding the baby well or if the baby is too small and why. I haven't put on a pound since half term which was 5 weeks ago! I know I run at a flat out pace looking after three boys, dh, 3 dogs and building my house, but still, I would have thought that at least half a pound would have gone on in such an important time of the baby putting on weight. Still, will find out all in the next few days.
SirCharles I would imagine you are very upset to be leaving SA no? I know I would love to be there, although having said that, the weather here in the last two weeks has been utterly crazy - we had 23 degrees down here today, and I'm not sure we have seen a cloud in the sky for two weeks either - just sun sun and more sun!
Dozey when do you find out whether dp is going to have a tag or be allowed out or not? They are leaving it quite close to the deadline no? Poor you, thinking of you lots.
No ideas on names, none, nothing, nada. Need girls, as think ok on boys. I have one I love, but dh hates it, and whilst I am pretty sure I could swing it, I'm not sure I want him to hate the child's name!!!
