Nearly 17 weeks

WOW - that last post was so sad. I've come a long way in just a few days!

I was hoping to post an exciting 16 week update, but my doctor didn't do the scan I was expecting - so stay tuned for the 2nd of April. That's when I'll have the big scan. They check the heart, kidneys etc. I don't care. I just want to see the little critter on the screen!

I've been feeling pretty rough, but the last two days I seem to have "come good" (gee I'm sounding Aussie tonight!). Boobs are still growing and doing weird things (details not necessary), no pain or bleeding from any of the other bits (thumbs up), occasional debilitating headaches and the odd morning of heaving up bile.

Last night I dreamt (you'll love this Brad) that I had twin...... puppies!! Oh they were so cute and their little eyes weren't open and they were making that smoochy noise. And the love I felt.... oh - wow!! Yes I know, I know - stop laughing. But it was a nice dream, in a strange canine kind of way.

Other than that I feel fat (and not cute basket ball in the tummy fat but blobby wobbly tummy, rolls on rolls kind of fat). I've been madly crunching numbers, looking at our finances and trying to work out my work situation for next year. I don't want to tell the kids and parents at school until I can answer their questions about my arrangements for next year. I think some Mums are already suspiscious... the big tum's a dead give away!

More soon.
