MY BABY IS HEALTHY!!!!!
Never before have I cried from relief. I am just shedding psychic layers of fear right now .... feels like the most enormous weight has been lifted from me.
Oh my gosh. I'm having a baby in May!
That's it - I'm done with worry ... except ... I am a little freaked out with some pains in my belly that keep coming, I think from the amnio because I've never felt them before. REALLY wish the doctor hadn't told me that "infection can set in, and miscarriage could take up to two weeks after the amnio." Seriously wish I didn't know that. I keep holding my tummy when I get the pains, and tell Monkey to hang in there and to keep growing, to stay safe. Does anyone know if pains after amnio is normal?
I feel quite cranky too - wish I hadn't had the nuchal in the first place, it was all unnecessary. Except, I feel profoundly grateful. To have even made it this far; yes it's been a rocky few weeks but I know full well that a lot of women out there have suffered much greater things than this.
But to compare pain is fruitless really.
I have started to have faith in this pregnancy and this baby; which feels wonderful. I went to the newborn section at Kmart, and had a few tears in my eyes. I bought a size 000 onesie. In yellow - didn't find out Monkeys sex. Ha. I bet someone googling 'Monkey sex' just landed on my blog.
A big, massive thank you for all of your comments, prayers, and support. The power of positive thought is an amazing thing, thanks so so much for caring. I'm in the process of updating my blogroll, so if you'd like to be added please post a comment or email

My heart goes out to you - you are one STRONG woman!!! You too Gemini Girl, your girls are just gorgeous, their names really suit them. I hope that you get to take them home soon.
Woo-hoo!! Elation, thy name is Topcat. xoxo

So cool that all is well! I know you are relieved! :) Woo Hoo indeed!
I can't give you any advice on the pains after amnio... Hoping it is nothing but irritation grumblings from your ute and it will fade away quickly.
Woo Hoo!
Topcat,
Pardon my language, but that is just fucking awesome all over.

So So happy for you and your little monkey.
Did you do it yet? Did you mark out all of that high risk nonsense and put those glorious words, "My baby is HEALTHY!!!" above it instead?
I just knew that your monkey is healthy! I am so happy for you! I pray that the remainder of your pregnancy is stress free and happy. You deserve it!
And thank you for all of the prayers and support. You are wonderful!
