Happy birthday Lola! ☺ I hope you have a wonderful night!!
Kat- Congratulations on a healthy baby girl! ☺
Thanks momoffourboyz! I'm going to wing it abit. The spaghetti is cooked in the broth so I think I'll heat up about 1L and add a cup at a time until its absorbed and the spaghetti is cooked [emoji848]

Pbn- I think that would be a good idea to add as you go and see how much it absorbs so there isn't to much liquid.☺
Sorry you didn't hear boy kat. Glad DH and DD1 are excited for another punk bundle though!
Lola hope you had a ball for your birthday! :D
Kat, congrats on the healthy baby girl....I know you will love her unconditionally, as much as you will still need to "mourn " not having a son, and will be the awesomest mum to your girl tribe :) so nice dd1 and dh are so excited , that will wear off to you once the slight shock/disappointment is overcome. :hugs: I'm bracing myself for the same next week
Tell me about it lol I keep running scenarios of getting result in my head, preparing for one or the other..crazy huh?Quote:

im glad it helped kat :) its the one thing that absolutely stands out about mums of all girl families for me, one woman who has carried 2 generations, you-your daughters-your grandchildren like a set of russian dolls :heart:
It's true it is baffling and just so neat, when you think about it...I was going to say just that, a bit like Russian dolls, all forever linked :awe:Quote:

Mommy - Sorry it wasn't your cycle :( Have you been having CD21 blood tests while on clomid? To check that you're ovulating?
Kat - Sounds like a great plan with your leave. Lucky your DH is the director of childcare, would make life so much easier.
Shann - Great news on passing your blood tests! Sorry about the itching though....You're so close now!
Lola - Hope you had a great birthday! Enjoy your dinner. No name yet....I have just started thinking about some choices though. It's so hard though as I get sick of names, especially after teaching a child with a name I like.
Max - How lovely to have some time away. And super exciting to be moving!
LMSM - I don't think the double dipping thing has been enforced. It was thrown out I think due to too many complaints. I signed quite a few petitions. I had my blood drawn on a Tuesday and the results went to my Ob on Friday very late. Hope they come back soon! I rang Dorevich and asked them if they had gone through before ringing my ob. I also asked them to not tell me the sex on the phone and to email it instead, so then I could process instead of talking to the receptionist about it.
Ash - Love the bunks! Hope the boys like them and settle in well.
Dancing - great plan with your leave! We are lucky in Oz.
Sky - Wow the weather is so hot!!! Glad they can stay inside at school.
Kat - Sorry you didn't hear blue, but glad your girl is healthy x
Pbn3 - Hope the pasta worked out okay?
Maternity Leave - Wow I really feel for those limited with their leave. I'm in Oz too, so we are very lucky. Unfortunately, I left my permanent job as a teacher 5 years ago and took a job closer to home that was someone's maternity leave position (we have take off 5-7 years as a teacher, depending on the school system). I am at a private school, so they can just keep extending their position every 12 months. So I therefore, don't have a permanent position and won't get any paid leave from work. As I'm due in March, I will finish my position at the school mid December, before our big summer break of 6 weeks (which won't be paid). When school resumes at the very end of January, I won't have job to return to. Well this is what I believe anyway....when I tell my principal this week, I will enquire and see if they will give me some work during February which will help a lot financially. Once bub is born I will get the standard 18 weeks paid leave from the government and then I'll take the rest of the year off. I am really going to focus my energy on my business Wooden You Home - Wooden You and see where that takes me. I could easily earn $600-1000 a week, which is a fraction of what I get teaching, but we could get by. Sorry for the essay!
Thanks for all your congratulations! It's starting to sink in, but I'm hoping to get a good nub shot at my 12 week scan on Tuesday! I hope I have a good sonographer.
