I'm sorry that I totally disappeared for a bit there. I've been wicked tired and stressed out so I spend most of my time trying to relax or sleeping. I just started having to go to the doctor's every two weeks for pre-natal appointments because I'm in the final trimester of my pregnancy now.
I've been also trying really hard to get Amelia's (my baby) room finished before she gets here (her crib is still in the box and without a mattress!)
I also have my baby shower in a month and invites haven't been sent out yet because people won't make decisions final so I'm getting all nervous about that.
I promise to try to at least check in from now on. 3nodding

I know! I will post one as soon as I actually have one. I haven't been able to get a good picture yet because no one will take it for me and I don't have anywhere good to be able to take it myself.
People keep telling me how little I look though and that I don't look pregnant except for the bump in the front. I'm not sticking out on the sides or anything (so from behind you can't tell at all).

Do a myspace mirror pic? xD
Aww you have a neat bump :3 Have you put on much weight during the pregnancy? My friend didn't look pregnant if you stood behind her, but her bump was massive! lol. She put on quite a bit of weight aswell sad

On my appointment on Monday I was only up like 6 pounds or something like that (I don't know what you use for weight measurement). I've gained like 21 pounds though because I lost 15 pounds from being so sick and unable to eat in the first trimester. So my midwife is happy that I am finally in the positive for my weight gain and Amelia looks fine when they check on her so they aren't concerned with my weight process at all.

You're lucky! Yeh some people don't put on a huge amount of weight. I guess it also depends on what food you eat aswell, whether you eats loads of unhealthy food, or lots of fruit and veg.

louM11 You're lucky! Yeh some people don't put on a huge amount of weight. I guess it also depends on what food you eat aswell, whether you eats loads of unhealthy food, or lots of fruit and veg. Yeah, I think I might end up gaining a total of between 15-20 pounds from my starting weight but a total of 30-35 because of the fact that I lost about 15 pounds in the first trimester. Sam and I both eat a lot of fruit. We went to his grandparent's farm and picked blueberries. We got about 7 pints of blueberries and ate two pints before we even got home. It's only a 15 minute drive... sweatdrop

louM11 I'm amazed you didn't poop blueberries! lol Haha - me too in a way. We eat SO much fruit. I love the summer for that reason because I can get fresh and local berries (blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, raspberries) and they are SO yummy when they are fresh!

Nothing beats fresh fruit in terms of flavor. If it was possible I would live off of berries. 3nodding
Are your wild strawberries really small? All of the wild ones around here are tiny - like the size of my pinky nail would be on the large side of average. The wild blueberries are really small too.

The majority of them are quite small. We've only recently been picking them quite a bit though (and Tilly helps herself to them) and I've noticed that they have started growing more so and larger ^__^

Awesome! Last year Sam's grandmother gave us a bunch of strawberries and I made strawberry jam with about half of them. We ate the other half. I was kind of sad that we didn't get any this summer.

My mum tried making plum jams and stuff from the fruit from our plum tree, but she cooked them and put them in jars and it's expanded and she can't open the jars xD

Hahahah!
I had my Aunt show me how to make jam. I would have totally messed up without her. I'm suppose to go and help her make spaghetti sauce sometime soon, but with the weather that we have had, I don't know how her tomatoes are going to be doing. It's been so rainy and yucky out...not to mention the slight touch of a hurricane.
