    Scan over!

    The Bellyfrog is sitting with her head in my ribcage. Her little hands are up on either side of her head, and so, bizarrely, are her feet. She's taking up perhaps a third of the available space, for some reason. Still, she cooperated wonderfully - full face image, profile image, little hands, little feet - still no confirmation of girl parts but still no indication of boy bits.

    The only minor concern is that she's measuring two weeks ahead in the body but normal for dates everywhere else. This happened with both me and my brother, and was blamed for the early labour. There's some suspicion of GD as well, and I'm having a second test for that in two weeks. Tuesday I have an appointment to meet my labour doctor, who will smile and tell me that he is all on for a non-C-section birth so long as the baby is pointing the right way by then and of course I can have whatever drugs are available.

    All is well.

    ahhh, I was thinking it would be something too highbrow for me, how wrong i was:p I can't be doing with wanna be models, I'm not generally a fan of girls - too !!!!!y (shouldn't really say that here when we're 99% females :o)
    I always think that proper models are generally funny looking IMO:rotfl:

    Lol

    Yeah, it's actually the Anthropologist's National Thematic Magazine, but I thought I'd better dumb it down! :p:D

    I looove seeing these girls do rubbish shoots! Makes me feel so much better!

    But am off to do some work now. Back later.

    Sure Sami, there's a bag left, help yourself :D

    Sugar, glad all is well :) When you say it's measuring big in the body, is that the abdominal measurement? Because mine measured bigger than average there, but I do believe certain factors such as swallowing amniotic fluid right before the measurement is taken can influence that... Hope your Dr Tues is as good as the Dr I had yesterday!

    Sugar - I personally wouldn't worry about one measurement being out, I had a scan at 33+3 and bubbas measurements varied from 30ish - 34ish Its just that its very rae that a person is completely average ;)
    My sister and I are the same height but her legs are about 3" shorter, she is 2 dress sizes smaller than me and her boobs look huge next to mine even though shes a 32C and I'm (when not preg) a 32D-DD :confused: just as my dad and I have the same inside leg measurement but he's a whole foot taller than me!

    Well my tax credits renewal just dropped through the door... No P60 for either of us has arrived yet... Hubby asked his manager and apparently, because they have until the end of May to get them out... That's when he can expect his! I have no idea about mine... All those that work for the NHS... Should it just come through the post like the payslips do? Or do I need to ring someone and chase it?

    Thanks Krystal! yum yum :)
    I've just had 2 welsh cakes which have helped a bit, I'm a bit dehydrated but every sip of anything I have makes me feel woozy - weird!

    I'd have thought it would arrive at the time your April wage slip would have come had you been getting one, have you spoken just to one of ur colleagues to see if they've had theirs?
    I'm expecting hubbys to come with his april wage slip but things are running a smoothly as usual because the girl that would usually sort everything is on maternity leave - I really must get my self employed status sorted - oops!!
