[Closed] Per Ardua Ad Astra

[sportysgirl]

Thanks squig, booking appointment went well. My midwife is really nice and very understanding. She is going to sort me another scan week after x mas and has put me on 5mg folic acid. Had bloods done and answered loads of questions!

How did yours go?

Tui what are feijoas?

Glad you have a good midwife sporty, it makes all the difference. I've got my appointment in 3 days. Can't wait for another look at baby. Maybe at 9 weeks?

Feijoas are a nz fruit. They taste great but not everyone likes them. Kind of a bit perfumey? You can eat them whole with the skin, or cut in half and eat like a boiled egg, lol.

Just read this article and thought it was fab.

Sporty - so glad you liked your midwife! She sounds amazing!

Tui - the juice you made sounds delish! We tend to make it in big batches too for the same reason. Seems a bit much to clean everything for a glass lol. I think we'll be making a big batch tomorrow. I'm excited because we haven't made any in a while.

Feijoas look yums. Never heard of them before. When I first glanced at the pic I thought it was a lime lol.

Also, great article! All the newborn advice I always hear always bothered me not all of it is logical!

Won't be long now girls, there is something in the air lately for sure. When is everyone testing? I'm dying to see some Xmas bfps in this group. Thanks for kicking us off bug cutie you're next

 

[confuzion]

AF due sometime between Friday and Sunday for me so not sure exactly what day I'll be testing on. The plan is to wait until Sunday but I may give in a day or two earlier if AF hasn't shown up . Not expecting a BFP though. Don't think another 2014 BFP is in the cards for us. But who knows! We'll find out soon enough

 

[laurac1988]

AF is due on Saturday for me, so will be testing late Saturday/early Sunday of she doesn't show up

 

[Lynny77]

I want in on the rainbow club! I do think this thread is definitely good luck!

Hope to see some bfp's this week!

 

[Squig34]

The BFPs have started so FX for you girls who aren't at testing stage yet!
