My room mate is out of town this week, and it is very peaceful here. And… my favorite room mate in the world comes in 2 days!!! It has been 6 grueling weeks, and I am tired tired tired of being here without him. I know people do it for a lot longer, but I am just not the long distance type. We move into our new place in 1 week, and I can’t tell you how much I am looking forward to it. As you may have noticed, I …

I had a REAL doctor’s appointment today. It was really quick – the GP just wanted to check MY health… not the baby’s. And yes, I am using the singular, although I have not had the scan yet. Anyway – I am completely fine. I asked her if she would let me hear the heartbeat again, and if I could call Michael at the same time so maybe he could hear too. They are so obliging… and we tried… and I heard it loud and clear, but not sure how …

The hospital called me today to ask if I could make it in for a scan appointment this afternoon, as they had a cancellation. I was beyond excited and said YES!!! So I went in and waited for an hour (waiting seems to be a theme with doctors here). I was a little disappointed that Michael couldn’t be there to see our baby together for the first time, but we had talked about it ahead of time and agreed that I would just go in at the earliest appointment.
The technician …

I went to the big Westfield Shopping Centre today. The only thing different about it than every giant shopping center in the US is that it has a cupcake store. The frosting was twice as high as the cupcake itself. I may or may not have had one. You will all never know.
Anyway, all was well until the return journey. The last leg is on a double decker bus, and the driver was trying to kill us all! I got on the bus and started to walk upstairs when the …

I had my first Doctor’s appointment today, which is going to be followed by another one tomorrow morning. Today was a check for the basics, and was completed by a nurse. She was so tiny that she had to stand a wooden baby chair to measure my height I am pleased to announce that I am 176cm tall. Tomorrow I meet with the actual GP and s/he will complete some more initial tests – all very standard. I am still amazed that you can just walk into a clinic, register …

Still haven’t had an official ultrasound, but according to the sonogram of 2 weeks ago, I should be at approximately 17 weeks now. Or as Michael is secretly hoping, I am having twins. Should find out in 2-3 weeks. For those of you closely watching this news story, here is the most recent photographic evidence!

Okay, so Jen is going in for an ultrasound soon which will apparently tip the baby’s hand on what sex it plans to be. So before it happens, make your guess!

As anyone who follows this site knows, there are a lot of photos of Jennifer eating. Sadly, you can see what this has led up to. Jennifer is pregnant with a food baby. Disgusting. Wait, hold on, Jen is yelling something at me…
Oh! That’s a real baby! Sorry everyone, I had no idea, but apparently Jen has a real baby inside. She is 16 weeks along and so far everything is going as it should. So how do we know Jen is really pregnant? Because if she wasn’t and her …
