The prodigal roommate has returned!  And there shall be much rejoicing!  -Especially since she brought a couple of bottles of wine with her. ;)
Does this mean your waiting for her return is vin-dicated?

Jennifer - I had Amnio with the Vixter _

it is NOT dangerous and it absolutely did not hurt at all. 

 Don't let anyone scare her with talk of needles through bellybuttons - it's nonsense.

 The entire procedure is done in a few minutes and they use a very high tech sonogram machine the entire time-

 Vixdad (who was in the room and could see the screen) said the clarity was amazing, almost as if they had a TV camera in the womb - the needle came no where near the baby.

Doctors will tell you all the worst case scenarios and make you sign all sorts of waivers because they are crazy scared about lawsuits -


First of all let her know the first thing she has to do is be calm for her sake and the baby's. 

 Secondly, even if there is something wrong they can do amazing things these days, in-utero surgery etc and make things right.

DH Richard has returned from teaching his Tuesday morning Bible study, we've had lunch, and will now venture out to do some errands.

Bye for now!

No, there isn't.  It's about a half moon.


It must be you, then.

DR Ron Pulliam - I'm not sure just what, exactly, you're insinuating - but I'm not sure that I like it!


;D


Oh, forgive me!  I did not mean to "insinuate".

I was simply making an observation!  ;)

I only had Valle's Samba 68, so I found a copy of Braziliance, although it seems to be OOP.  I should have it soon.  Can't find anything on "The Girls From Bahia' on amazon.

Go to DustyGroove.com.  The best place for Brasilian CDs by far.  Brazilliance isn't OOP, in fact, it just had its new, second release, with the U.S. Warners cover (as opposed to the original Brasilian Odeon one).  You're going to love it.

DS Betsy got amnio with both our boys and it turned out to be quite a bit less scary than we thought (of course, that's easy for me to say, eh?).  She even said it didn't hurt all that much, it was more of a pressure feeling than any pain.  Of course we were trepidatious--that's only natural, but it was quick and relatively easy.

The problem with getting an amnio (they say) is that getting one can cause you to miscarry.  I think that is the scary part, not doing it.

When i said dangerous i meant that they say there is a 1/100 chance you will miscarry just from doing the test. Not that the procedure would hurt or anything like that.

Yes, they discussed it with us, but it's a very minor risk, at least as they explained it to us.  We needed to do it, however, since Tay-Sachs runs in both of our families.

Back from the long jog - it's about twenty degrees warmer today, so it was nice.  I did have to have one of my little yelling fits, since the butt cheeks doing the road work had BOTH little pedestrian walkways blocked.  I told them that was quite illegal and it had best be fixed by the time I returned.  They laugh, but, you know what - it was fixed - BOTH sides, by the time I returned.  This is a private company doing city work and they simply cannot ignore very basic laws.

You can add them to your wish list and they'll email you as soon as they're back in stock.  Dusty is really good about restocking stuff--in fact, I'd bet you by the end of the week, they're back.

It's looked better.

It also looked worse, like a couple of hours ago.
