something to write home about

Its frozen outside. The frost makes pretty patterns on car roofs. Brr.

Also, i'm pregnant.


4w 1d.

Estimated due date since i know the date and time we conceived (boxing day, 9pm, 100% planned and intentional), is about the 19th of September. Longest luteal phase I've ever had, 16 days!

We gotta start thinking about names and re-collecting baby stuff (that we got shed of because we were sure we'd never want to do it again), and all that! Spose i better put a ticker in my profile so i can keep up with it, lol :)

edited to insert image:


Also a cute pic of my sulky britches goober:


She says she wants a sister to play with her toys with. :)
Egads i can't wait. :D

OH MY GOODNESS, CONGRATULATIONS!! What a great (slightly belated) Christmas present! :) xx

although, this may be my extreme naivety, or just extreme lack of any decent biology lessons at school, but if you conceived on boxing day how are you 4w 1d already? or am i just stupid?

Because bizarrely enough the 40 weeks start from the beginning of the last menstrual period, which means though technically i'm only about 10 days pregnant, 4 weeks have elapsed and only 35w and 5 days to go ... its weird but that's how they do it.

Yay! Merry Xmas me! :D

Thanks sweetie.

What a stupid way of working things out. No wonder Doctors have such complicated jobs! I think the logical part of my brain is what will stop me from ever becoming anything remotely like a Doctor. That and the science-detesting part of my brain.

Anyway, congratulations for the uber-fast four weeks! If only the rest of it went that quickly, no one would have any real need for complaining :)

Pumpkin's gonna be a great big sister, she'll love it. Not that I'm a big sister, but my sister is and she does. x

Pumpkin has put in her request already! :)

Ha ha, i wish the last 4 weeks went that quickly, oh yes! When i'll be big as a house and moaning, oh yeah.
