Less than a week to go now until Bub's due date and we're both starting to get pretty excited if not a little bit nervous. Realistically I could go up to two weeks over before they'll consider inducing me... But hoping it won't come to that because induction brings with it all sorts of extra monitoring which I want to try and avoid. It's such a ( Read more... )

I know it's friggin hot down in Sydney today, but I thought I would just point out how unreasonably disgustingly hot and humid it has been up here today...

It's good, it's very very good.

Only 2 weeks 'till Hugh gets home.
Hmm, when I say 'only' I am trying to make it sound like it's not that far away. But it's two whole bloody weeks :(

Blegh. What week. Have just spent the last 3 nights in Murwillumbah hospital with a mystery virus - extremely high temperatures, vomiting, low blood pressure and headaches. Was pretty full on - especially with bub on board and being susceptible to high temps and low blood pressure. But, all's well that ends well.. They wanted me to stay in 1 ( Read more... )
