Hi All,

I have attached a pic of my scan from yesterday! All is going well and I am super relieved..Hubby is also really happy now, even more so now that he/she is actually looking more like a realy baby and not just a blob he's now busy planning the baby's room!

Bondelq: is your scan today at 17:00? if so, all the best

Hope everyone else has a great day also - hopefully sick free (mine is so far.....touch wood)

Hi Ladies

13 weeks at last!

Anthea – Congrats on your LG’s birthday yesterday!

Kelz – How did your scan go?

Cherikey – I felt like that last Thursday when my made turned up for work late again, also making me late again . After getting a very arrogant attitude from her and taking into consideration how she lied to me and my husband to get more pay a week after she started (playing the she said this and he said that game) I told her things aren’t working out and she should rather go. Now I’ve decided that I will do the bit that she did myself, so we will see how long that will last. I did the washing myself and she was even too lazy to just pack it away so she really didn’t do much, working two days a week 6:30 to 13:00 and getting about R1100 - R1200 a month.

I was booked for a scan yesterday but the receptionist had to move it because the doctor was in theatre. Today she had to move it again because the doctor is in theatre again with two emergency ops. While having a really bad month end I almost wanted to lose my cool but realised that it’s just the way things go. Emergency ops are unpredictable and the poor receptionist can only do her best. They wanted to move my scan to 15:45 but my work won’t give me off (they even made me work while I was booked off sick) so I will only be seeing my little monkey at 17:00.

And the best off all: just when I thought my MS is completely gone I find a new thing that makes me throw up: Starches! Bread, Rice, Pap, you name it!

Morning ladies...

Hoping you can tell me if this is normal or what's going on...

Just over a week ago i got a little sore on the corner of my mouth, you know where you top & bottom lips meet... like when it splits... It's just not getting better. Then on Saturday I got a fever blister on my bottom lip which is quite big... Now this morning i can another fever blister coming up on my top lip...

What's going on? It seems like my immune system must be low???

On a side note, both hubby & daughter have had "funny" mouths... with little white sores on the tips of their tongues and hubby's mouth has been burning for over a week... I put both of them down to oral thrush...

So i'm thinking they may have passed somehting on to me and i'm just presenting it in a different way??? Or are they not connected?

What are your thoughts?

PS: Who else has scans this week?

Hi ladies!

Hope you all had an awesome weekend...

Mine was good - just too short, as what most weekends are...

My LG turns 2 today!!! Cant believe she is so big already... Attached is a pic of her on her birthday present...

AFM: still naar still suffering from MS but gonna stop complaining... i took some Natura Magan drops the other night out of desperation and they seemed to help... also helped with the heartburn... so now they are my new best friend (till they stop working that is...)

At Kelz - enjoy the scan! Cant wait to see pics... If you dont mind me asking, how come you cant give natural birth?

Ohhh Cherikey - sterkte jong!!! I also get those days when everyone says die duiwel is los YAY for the 12 week mark!!!! in two weeks time i will be in your shoes
