I got some of this waffle ice cream you've all been going on about yesterday and some wafers (don't know why but I just HAD to get wafers to go with) I'm lucking forward to eating it!!
Just had some meh-won and gwapes as Chris called them - bump is now wriggling like a loon - like his fruit obviously!

Lil Miss- one of the girls at work was told at two scans she was having a girl and ended up with a little boy. To say they were shocked is an understatement!

I would take any weight guesses as just that a GUESS they can be wildly off the mark
I think the getting the sex wrong is a pretty rare occurrence these days, it all depends on how good bubba is for showing its bits at the sonographer generally they say its around 95% accurate

Hi all..

Guess what? I'm working from home! :j I'm never ever ever allowed to do that but my boss takes the mick and does it all the time - bone of contention throughout the whole company. I didn't feel good at all after my midwife visit and as home is closer to the doctors than work, I came home and logged on to carry on working. I bet you once boss finds out I'll have all my access rights closed off by 10am tomorrow morning! :rolleyes: (her early finish today so she thinks I'm back at work ).

I know I am dodgy with needles anyway but I haven't had a bad reaction to a blood test for a couple of years - and I have to have about 6-8 blood tests a year normally anyway. I'm usually okay unless something goes wrong and today I heard the horrid words "oh, your vein's collasped" - cue me coming over all faint, clammy and queasy! _pale_ I always have blood tests lying down anyway but if I hadn't have been on the bed already I'd have been on the floor in seconds

Thing is, I had to have the AntiD jab too and they apparently can't give me the jab until they've done it 28wk bloods. Midwife offered for me to come back next week and have the AntiD if I would go to the hospital in the meantime for the bloods, but I really didn't want to leave it any longer to have the AntiD, so I stayed lying there for ages until I felt brave enough to have the bloods attempted again. luckily I was pretty much alright the second time, although I now have a bruise and normally I never bruise Midwife warned me my arm would feel like I'd been punched after the AntiD but I was told that last time too and was fine so I wasn't too bothered. This time, she proper stabbed me with the needle to get it in (no gentle scratch!) and she was right - it really aches now!

Feel okay now, queasiness wise, but as my arm's probably going to get worse tonight I decided not to bother going back into work. Will probably get way more done here than I would at work anyway!

I wish I could have a rare steak

Blood on the plate rare. None of this "grey till you hit the middle" nonsense. Blood!

With mashed potatoes, and green beans, and Bearnaise sauce.

And a Martini. I want a wet, dirty Martini with Hendricks and an extra olive.

Mrs Moc, really glad you're able to go home We expect to see you posting lots though so we know you're not up to mischief and housework!

JM, congrats on joining Team Blue

Hope everyone else having scans today gets good ones!

Re: scans - we were told 95% sure it was a boy at the NHS 20wk scan.. By the way the conversation went, the sonographer definitely caught sight of something obvious! We've had two other scans since and seen for ourselves his "hangly dangly bits" as the other sonographer called them - even have a picture in full colour 3d glory too!

Re: steak - medium well for me.. cooked, vaguely pink in the middle but not chewy. Hmmm.. really fancy steak and chips now! :drool:

Am sure I had more to say or someone else to mention.. will go back again!

Oh yes, Claire! *hugs* Hope everything is okay with the hospital stay

Right, I'm off to assemble afternoon tea - sultana scone, butter, strawberry jam and clotted cream
