    Morning sar, she's fine. I went for the 20 week scan last week but have to go back on monday for another one. They felt that her belly and legs were a bit small so want to do a growth scan on monday. I'm not worried though, babies grow in spurts and don't always follow the graph lines. Besides, she was in a really awkward position, all curled up and refused to move, so I don't think that helped.

    So, are you excited about the tattoo?

    Toto,
    why not be a 'posh' and book in a C-section so hubby can be there and then he can be all 'rock and roll baby!' and jet off after...then you both are happy?

    Then, I will come down and be nursemaid. Snuggling ickle baby and sniffing that gorgeous new baby smell.

    Eat a Mars bar before hand and the sugar will wake her up-or have a really cold glass of water, apparently that makes them move about too? (personally, I'd go for the Mars bar)

    Both Ash and KK ended up being 'below average' on the scans so had to have growth scans with them both. At birth they were both 8lb+!!

    and yes... yes I am :D

    As much as I'm not a fan of elective csections in this case I tend to agree! :)

    That's a tough one... is it a one off tour? How would he feel if he missed the birth?

    Well, it's one of those tours which would lead on to a lot more work on more money. It is with a very very well established band and it would do his career no end of good. It probably wouldn't do mine any harm either, seeing as I tend to pick up work on the back of his gigs and vice versa.

    But yeah, he would be gutted to meet his daughter via a picture sent by text message :rolleyes: And obviously I would like him to be there.
