Overdueness sucks...

40+4 and counting. HINT HINT TUMMY...

Actually, it doesn't suck so much except the umpteen billion calls, texts and people saying 'have you had her yet??'  *headdesk* Yeah like i was gonna have her in total secret and not tell anyone. Yeah, that's it. </ sarcasm>

It feels just like last week, without the blood pressure drama and with fewer, less energetic baby movements. I guess she's saving up for the grand entrance? She's still alive, but she's not so busy. Last week she was trying to go all John Hurt chestburster on me, and that was beyond uncomfortable, into well painful.

This kid is so not going to move before Friday. *pokes idle belly* I'm gonna have to get an eviction notice, I can see it.

ugh, so tired of keeping my feet up, drinking lots of water and watching crap tv. Come on baby! You've got til Friday!

Scan today

Baby is fine. I am so relieved.

Got to see everything, all the bits, even the 4 chambers of the heart, the brain, kidneys, bladder, long bones, all sorts. Switched the scanner to 4d mode but a hand was blocking the view of the face so no movies of smiling cherub faces or anything this time.

And its a girl :) which is very groovy :)

I get another scan at 28 weeks so i'll get to see her again!

Now we gotta start working on names. *ponder*

probably just a passing fancy, but...

i'm inclined to think, just for this moment, that Jake Weber from Medium is the hottest thing on television right now. I may even have to icon.

Probably just the hormones, though. :/

edited: i grabbed icons. i r temporarily happy.

Torchwood 2.9

Something Borrowed - yeah, i needed to borrow something, all right - a tissue.  Since when does Torchwood make me cry ?

Good episode, nothing especially special i didn't think, but still nice all around.

Couldn't stay up for it, went to bed early. Had to watch it this morning by other means. Still fell asleep on the toilet again today after the school run. Unbelievable. Never been this tired in my entire life, ever.

craving...

POP TARTS!

Thank heavens for tescos, who had only 2 flavours, strawberry or chocolate.

I got 2 boxes of strawberry. Yum.  Goober likes em too :)  Serious flashback to 1985 when we all ate em hot from the toaster before school, because it was the thing to do.

I'm enjoying the craving-of-the-day game these days, which usually involves something sweet or strawberryish, but might encompass chicken or mayonnaise or even tuna.

But nothing with tomatoes in, no vegetables, no meat besides chicken or tuna, no cod either, no chocolate (?!?)  and NO cooking - can't bear them. :/ 

Strange.
