Now i am going too clean really

Yep Lilli - You would be the baby of the group.
OMG Congrats Natalie - I'm not the only one having a surprise baby! Yippee.

I have my scan tomorrow and I'm so excited. The last time it looked like a little blob and this time it will be a baby! And Emily your lucky it's only costing you $95. Mine is costing me $360!

Public. But all our imaging clincs (xrays, ultrasounds and the like) are private here so we have to pay. I'll probably get $80 back from medicare hopefully we hit our threshold soon so I'll start getting the whole amounts back (we have had a pretty full on year drs wise so far)

Holy moly, $360 is heaps!!! Ours is $185 and I think we get $60 back, I hesitated when they told me it was that much! We're on a pretty tight budget at the best of times, but with the wedding and stuff every dollar counts at the moment... trouble is I knew I'd be worried if we didnt have the scan and had to wait til 19 weeks.

I just had to call and reschedule 2 baby appointments I had booked for tomorrow, Baylee's a bit sick and I'm not sure she'll be well enough by tomorrow for daycare, so I had to reschedule my first appointment with my new OB, and also an appointment to officially book in to the hopsital I remade the OB one for next thursday instead, but the hopsital bookings line was already closed so I had to email them instead, hopefully they can sqweeze me in soonish!

Congratulations & welcome Natalie!!

Ha, that gender reveal party sounds like fun!! I dont think I could stand having the envalope and not reading it straight away though!!

How old are you Lili? I'm guessing 93 is your birth year?? I feel old now lol, mine's 84!!!

Aww Lucky, I remember seeing Baylee's feet in her ultrasounds and being all besotted by them too, they are so cute and to think they'll one day be walking and carrying them all over the world

Hey Natalie and welcome!!! I'll most likely be high risk too as I had GD last time was insulin dependent and was induced 11 days before my due date. I had high blood pressure during my first pregnancy too, but not last one, but you seems to have it all, hope that it isn't too bad for you... good luck with your trial!

MrsH, tell me about the waist, nothing I have will hide my growing bump, except 1 top and I seem to be wearing it alot, but almost time to tell people! 2 more weeks!

Emily, 1 more day yay!! oh and try pumpkin patch for maternity jeans, I picked a pair for $28 if not big w have maternity jeans for about $30, I have heard of the reveal party, also heard they get balloons delivered in pick or blue. Supposedly my sugars are up a little already, so we can GD friends lol

Lili, yep a young one

Sara, yay for the scan boo for the cost

Lucky, I can't see you pic, but I bet is is gorgeous

Larissa hey, you aren't old, I am older (not by much I'm 83 baby)

AFM, well still tired and fat!

Emily $95 is a lot of money to find for most people so there is nothing scungy about it. Just tell your DH to pull his head in - he has kids now and no matter how much we want things our own way they seem to come first and us second. He can buy himself something for his birthday later on this scan can only be done at a certain time or it is invalid

Phew, so hopefully you'll all be able to see my pic now? Obviously experiencing some technical difficulties - now my timeline (days & weeks) has turned into a hyperlink

If someone tech savvy knows how to help me out, that be much appreciated.

Lizzy82 - It is a fascinating book. So full of great information and advice on all aspects of maternal and neonatal health. I do hope you find a good prenatal chiro soon

Hey Ladies

Sarah- Well thats good for medicare giving you some back , and then whole amounts later, Good luck with your next scan and hope he/she is wriggling away .

Lucky- You have me so excited for the photo but i cant see it, hope you can get it up soon , its really cute when bub is active! What is your real name as well?

Larissa- Hope you get booked in soon hun!! and amen to Baylee getting better.

Emily- I personally think $95.00 is alot. Hopefully the price does drop down soon and you get medicare back .

Casey- By your DP you don't look 30 you look like ur 22 . Lucky you for baby cuddles.

So... does anyone want to be my friend on Facebook?
