    Good thing to keep in mind then

    Thanks I'm trying not to spam people on Facebook with millions of pictures of him, but plan on sharing a few here and there. Of course, I won't be like some other people I've seen and posting pictures of his birth. I'm pleased I got pics of it but people don't need to see him being born.
  3. nico_collard
    Haha, yeah I guess it is You should have it now.

    Yeah, the shearers shear the sheep and the woolclasser checks the wool and gets the crap bits off so it's ready for selling. Thanks Thought I'd share a recent pic: Oh, and you know how we were talking about hospital food and fish and chips? They had fish and chips on the menu once while I was there and I ordered it (and I thought of you )
  5. nico_collard
    Well that's a bit weird. Though I wouldn't mind some fish and chips right now. Actually, getting served fish and chips in a hospital is a bit weird as well (wish they'd serve that sort of stuff in hospital here). Even in the hospital in Sydney never had stuff like fish and chips, though the food was a lot better there than in Orange. I think she is, though I'm not sure what's going to happen in the next week or two. My grandfather is wanting to go woolclassing and she needs to have someone with her when she goes home.

    Yeah, you could say that! I'm not sure how I feel at the moment. I'm ready to meet the little person, but feeling a little nervous about the whole thing. No doubt I'll get even more nervous the closer I get. Went up to the private hospital to see my grandmother this morning. She had a knee replacement Monday last week and wasn't too well afterwards. She was off with the fairies when I saw her but good thing is, she's doing a lot better now (and is pleased that the food in the private hospital is better than the public one). So yeah, all in all very exciting around here

    Well from what I was reading, anywhere from about 38 weeks is pretty well full term. But yeah, they come when they're ready. Mum was convinced that bub would come between the 5th and the 19th of this month, but she's been proven wrong Seems to be going to plan. The doctors have told me that everything's happening from this Sunday. So I go in for a check on Sunday and if needs be, they put in some gel to get things started (likely 2 doses of the gel), which means I'll likely stay in hospital overnight. Then on Monday, they'll hopefully break my waters and everything will start from there. So hopefully this time next week I'll have a little bub! Of course, if bub decides to make their appearance before then, there could be issues cause of the blood thinners. Also if there's a chance of seizures or I actually have a seizure, I might need to have a caesarian . It's all very interesting to see what happens. Whoa, 40 weeks! Yay! *points up*

    I best get that organised then. Not long to go! Bub is due in October, though the doctors were saying that they're going to induce me between the 19th and 26th of this month cause they don't want me going into labour while I still have blood thinners in my system.
  9. nico_collard
    Not at all! Only 3 weeks to go :shocked:I am getting plenty of rest, though I'm sure Derek thinks I do nothing all day Actually, I should go and have a shower soon, it's 10am and all I've done is go on FB and eat breakfast I've been thinking of getting a facial and pedicure sometime soon. Mum got a facial yesterday so that's what made me think of it.
  10. nico_collard
    Stupid computers I tried not to eat too much, but I ended up taking some of my food home from Derek's birthday dinner (he took his free birthday mud cake home too, so we shared dessert at home ). I finally had the baby shower on the weekend (ft. Derek's mum being the only person from that side of the family actually coming), and got a stack of stuff for bub. I managed to get at least 6 towels. I think I'm pretty much ready to go now. Ooooh, I'll have to take some pictures and show you how it all looks. Yeah, nothing massively interesting happening here.
  11. nico_collard
    Just in case you pop in sometime soon, all is good here. Bub's head is now engaged and appears to be just as active as normal Derek's birthday is today as well, though he's been feeling a bit under the weather (ie, hungover) as he had some friends from work over last night. We've got dinner for our nephew's girlfriend's 21st tonight, afternoon tea for my cousin's younger daughter's b'day and dinner for Derek's b'day dinner tomorrow. Luckily neither of us have to do anything tomorrow and Monday
  12. nico_collard
    Good to know you're looking out for me Wonka
  13. nico_collard
    Okay, I'll try and behave myself... Don't wanna get sent to the naughty corner. I haven't gone too far, I just read a lot of stuff rather than post. Maybe I should post more?
  14. nico_collard
    I'm only misbehaving cause I'm bored... I still have 6-7 weeks till bub makes their appearance, and I have no job
  15. nico_collard
    He's been gone for quite a while, so no issues there. I think he died fairly young. But yeah, unbelievable. Derek's heading off to Queensland tomorrow afternoon after work, so I get to go to the first antenatal class on my own, plus a growth scan which is on Friday.
  16. nico_collard
    But, I'm never naughty! Deb knows I'm not!
  17. nico_collard
    Oh good, hopefully that's it. And yay for London Would love to come along and meet everyone I haven't already met I know what it's like having trouble sleeping with the heat. I find getting a spray bottle of water and spraying myself and having the window open seems to cool me off a bit. Anyways, I had to come on here and have a bitch. Derek's grandmother (who lives in another state) passed away and the sh!t's hit the fan cause two of his brothers have had a hissy fit cause their parents didn't call them personally to say what has happened (to be fair, we only got a message). Anyways, Derek mentioned something on FB about his brothers not calling their parents at any other time and one of his brothers and the wife of the other brother had a go at Derek. I then copped it from the wife. So yeah. Apparently two grown men over the age of 40 can't possibly call their parents at all. Derek was apologising to me because of it, but he doesn't have to because he can't control what his family do. Sorry, I just had to get that off my chest.
  18. nico_collard
    It had to be done Go on, do it... you know you want to
  19. nico_collard
    Oh good, wanted to make sure I was clear enough
  20. nico_collard
    The nursery is ready to go, except I need to make the cot up (but seeing as I'm using a bassinet first, it's a bit pointless to do it now). I'm in the process of packing my and bubs bags. I went and bought a stack of stuff to take to hospital with me but I still need a fair bit of stuff. Waiting to see what stuff I might need for the hospital. I'm starting to get a bit tired. I was ready for a sleep yesterday afternoon and all I did was go see the grandparents, get some stuff from the chemist and have lunch with Mum. How's things going with you?
  21. nico_collard
    Well and truly a proper little person Only got 8 weeks to go till bub arrives Bub was being a bit cheeky today at the appointment. Wouldn't let the midwife get a proper check of the heartrate.
  22. nico_collard
    Woah... That means I had dinner with Mika in London 2 years ago Anyways, is my location okay?
  23. nico_collard
  24. nico_collard
    Yeah, I forgot you wouldn't know what that was. This is what some of them look like: Oooooooh, gotta show you these! Someone's a bit flexible, with their foot right up against their nose!
  25. nico_collard
    If deep fried dim sims, peanut butter and paddlepops are odd cravings, then yeah Though not all at the same time
