10 Nov 2010 More from me . . .

Had the twenty week ultra-sound today, and was finally given a due date. It is apparently the 29th of March, and bubby is looking very healthy with all its bits attached and is a perfectly normal size for this time of its life .
I am starting to definitly feel better on the nausia front, though I've been getting some killer head aches.
Granny took me to the Lifeline opp shop yesterday, and I actually picked up a six seater dining sweet for twenty dollars! Its so cool! All it needs is some screws and glue, and a lot of polish, and its gonna look a million dollars. Its also an extendable table, which means when this new little one is big enough to join us at the table, Granny will still fit too, lol!
Now all we need is a car that'll fit us, and this is a more pressing need, because as soon as this one pops out we will no longer fit our car, and we don't have the funds to get another one, so goodness knows how we'll manage this one, but strangely enough, I'm not worried about tit yet.
Malachi wet the bed last night, and was so dissapointed this morning, so we're hoping he'll manage a dry one tonight.
I think we'll finally be starting on the exteerior painting next week too, if its not raining . . . tomorrow we'll finally have enough money to but our first whopping tin of solar guard, and the job will officially have begun, YAY!
 I shall probably have it a fort night before this date, because the doctor will insist on another c-section. They've all been c-sections, the first two being emergencies, the third I wanted to try once more for a natural birth, but the doc wouldn't give me any extra time, but said if I could come into labour before the c-section date he wouldn't object to me giving it a try, and now the fourth there is no negotiation, and what's more, because of the complications with the others, its been strongly suggested this should be my last, but I do not want to think about that.
 We are bow having our first meal at the table, and my word, but its a tight fit! The room/hallway we eat in is only about 5 1/2 feet wide, and so to have a standard size table and chairs in that space is fine when there is no one sitting at it, but when you fit people around it, we-ll. Lets just say I now need to sit at an end, LOL!
 Oh, and Malachi had another wet night. He is very disappointed, but we are consoling him that it will eventually stop.
 We don't make regular trips to the doctors, you understand, only when we are really sick, but I usually keep a list of questions in my handbag that I add to occasionally, (some are very vague, LOL!) and when we go to see the doc, if I have the appropriate child with me, I ask. Fortunatuly (or not) last trip with a child was with Malachi with that horrible tummy wog, and so I asked then, along with general enquiries conscerning his height and weight (he's very tall, and wirey, he looks about 7, instead of 5) and also why he might be so terrible affectionate towards me, and somewhat tetchy towards every one else. Its true, these questions are probably more appropriate for, say, a midwife, but it depends on what the doc says as to wether I pursue the matter further or not.
 We have a Ford Falcon sedan, which is a 'large luxury' car, and with three different types of childrens seats in the back, it is very difficult for the poor muggins trying to do the seat belts up, lol! Trouble is, with our prospective budget, we may not be able to afford anything that gives us more space. We shall just have to wait and see!
