Here's the proof - there's only one! No twins! I thought back to the psychic's exact words about twins though and she said "You will have 2 children - a boy and a girl. You will have your babies by the time you are 37 (Feb 09). Twins run in your family.". So I took this to mean I was having twins. How else would I get both babies before my birthday when this one is due in Jan? I wouldn't even have time to get pregnant instantly after this one - there's only two weeks difference. And frankly who would want to get pregs again that quickly? So, the mystery remains. Maybe I'll walk outside one day and someone will have left a little bundle with a note on it. Of course, maybe she meant during the time I am 37 rather than before my birthday. I dunno.
So anyway, I haven't been writing this last month and a half or whatever it's been now coz I've been just so nauseous. There were a couple of weeks there I couldn't even look at a computer screen, but thankfully things are starting to improve a wee bit now. I have been slightly worried about the bub in that time as there was a fair few incidences of spotting, so it was great to see him/her kicking like a mad thing at the scan this week.
Now we're just worrying about how the hell to raise the little bugger. We've got to get new jobs down here in Canberra and get a mortgage and new house all before October, which is when the lease runs out on this place. I put in a job application literally the day before I found out I was up the duff and 2 and a half months later still haven't heard how I went, despite having done the interview and them having contacted my referees. Since I applied for that one I've been either too freaked out or too sick to look for anything else. Kind of a problem coz now I'm getting to the point where anything I apply for is going to take a couple of months to finalise and anything I get, I'll be turning up as big as a house and ready to pop! H has a couple of leads and another interview, but we're starting to get that awful sense of desperation. How did we go from double income, no kids, no mortgage to this - no income, no home, and a baby on the way? I feel like we're one step away from being characters on My Name is Earl.
PS Yes I know my banner's had it but right now I just can't be bothered.
