I never bought Hero dolls, but everyone else has lol! She only likes one that my uncle got her, its a cheapie that signs and does this creapy dance. He got her 3 for 10 euro at some fair.
hearty im sure theres nothing wrong with taking the progesterone every now and then...If it gives you peace of mind and theres no harm with it why not I say?

Oooh, I am just dying to read this moderated post. Does this mean "they" are always watching??!?
Vicky, I am so sorry you're having such a rough go at the mo'. Conneticut is like Stepford Wives territory if you live in burbs. Definitely a change from city center Athens. I also haven't been reading anything about Greeks being lazy...although I think in general Americans like to bring up the way Europeans as a whole have longer holidays, maternity leave, etc, since Americans take like no time off at all. But I think in most instances, at least in my circles, people are commending the better work-life balance Europeans have.
I can't remember now when I felt movement with Alistair and it makes me sad.
Round, don't worry about the cord, please!! Alistair was so active towards the end and super hiccupy so I worried sooooo much about his cord and it wasn't even around his neck.
Jaymes, those are amazing lines!
I got pretty swollen when flying while pregnant and I was only 15 weeks. I also peed a lot and people kept watching me go to and from the bathroom in a judgemental way (I wasn't overtly pregnant looking).
What's a romper suit? Is this a British thing I'm unaware of? I should know since I worked at a nursery in the UK for goodness sakes.
Lucy, I hope Ben sleeps better tonight. Alistair is quite sleepy today as well, wonder what it will mean for tonight! We're trying ot push his bedtime earlier and earlier so he doesn't have super crazy jet lag in the UK. Less than two weeks until our trip! Eeek!
This week I've been struggling with feeling like I get nothing done during the day. Does anyone else who is not working feel like that? I'm not ready for the day until noon myself because getting Alistair fed and dressed and then the same for myself takes ages. And then I just feel tired from broken sleep so I lounge most of the afternoon. It's going on 3 and all I've done is one load of laundry. I'm jsut feeling like my days have no structure or accomplishments and it's getting to me. I'm technically back at work but taking cases sporadically as I also can't seem to fit work in even though I'm not actually doing anything????

Just got my results back from my second trimester screening. My risk for everything went down dramatically from my first trimester screening!! 
For Down's Syndrome it went down from 1/620 to 1/4300
For Trisomy 18 it went down from 1/6100 to 1/27,000
I got a new test for Smith Lemli Opitz and got the best number possible 1/10,000
I also got a new test for AFP which tests for neural tube defects and it was normal
I'm soooo happy! No amnio for me!!!

I find the conversaton on gender roles fascinating! I love that there' s supposed biological reason for females preference for pink. I've always been very girly, loved pink, played with dolls, and if I remember correctly totally went for tacky glitter, bows and rainbows as well. I could NOT imagine myself with a son! And now here and I am in boy-land. He's still really fun to dress, though.

YAY, Hearty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You have a happy and healthy little baby in there. I am so thrilled for you! How are you feeling? More relaxed? On 
I cant' wait for Aug. 3rd....although, I hope he have him/her on July 24th or July 28th....Alex's bday is July 24th and a lot of people I've loved in life were born July 28th including my dad, and I think they are great bdays. And Leos are pretty awesome.

I definitely agree with this Allie. That seems to be the way Europeans are perceived here and it's always looked at as a better way of life. Though a lot of politicians don't agree with National Health Care, but that's a whole other topic!

Allie, I think I'll be more relaxed after the anatomy scan on March 15. But those results definitely helped me feel better! Not to bad for an old lady like me! It's a good day today.
I'll take a July baby. I always thought I'd have a summer baby. My first baby was due on July 24, so it's a little bittersweet for me. But I will be thrilled if that's when the babe decides to come. I just want the baby to wait until the end of July/early August so he/she is fully baked.

FANTASTIC NUMBERS!!!
aaaaand relax, your baby is perfect!! i was really worried about spina bifida and you have to wait until 20 weeks in the uk for that, so thats brilliant. The anatomy scan wont show anything up that cant be treated i wouldn't imagine? Neeeearly there now
all my family are summer babies, apart from my little eloise.
a romper suit is an all in one but not a babygrow, like the photos i posted. i am romper crazy
dont get me started on the welfare state (which i support) and my perceptions of the ambitions its necessary for americans to have <stepsaway>

Ha ha! Not so much anymore Nato! Over the summer I would have agreed with you. That's why I posted those pictures on FB. To remind me what I used to look like even at 37. Now I'm much rounder. Though Tim doesn't seem to mind. 
Anyone have any good plans for the weekend? It's a long weekend for us. Will probably see a friend I haven't seen in ages, go to yoga and sew. Quite honestly, I would love a glass or two of champagne to celebrate right now, but I don't have the courage.
