First Obstetrician Appointment

Had our first appointment with Dr Titiz today. Gee it's hard to say his name to other people... He seems nice and said that we could choose to have the baby anyway we wanted. I didn't know you could elect to have a caesarian without a medical reason. Scary. He checked Em out and everything seemed fine. We listened to the baby's heart rate via the ultrasound machine. Quite surreal and what a fast heart beat! We were given a stack of information about how to book into have the baby and what kind of help would be provided to us. We're to book into antenatal classes as soon as we can.

Move to Mitchelton

Started moving all our stuff in from Dayboro today.


I hope it's a boy because the baby's room is painted blue with blue curtains!

Ems last Ultimate tournament

Played halibut this weekend and decided that exercise at that intensity is no longer an option. Was completely exhausted by the end of it and had a few twinges in the pelvic area.

Found a house & doc

Decided to take the house in Mitchelton. Signed the lease today, to move in on Monday.

Went to the doctor to get a referral for an obstetrician. Was given a list of 5 that work at North West Private Hospital. Called them all but none were available for our due date, being just after new year it seems to be peak holiday / baby season. The secretary of the last one referred me to an obstetrician who was new to the hospital so probably wouldn't have too many clients. She was right! Booked in to see him next week.

Social Scene

We're already getting into the social scene up here. We went to both an engagement party (Mike & Trin) and and engagement picnic lunch (Dan McNaughton). A most enjoyable weekend.

Our stuff arrives

All our stuff arrived today. Some lovely guys with a small truck delivered it all to Dayboro. Nothing appears to be missing and everything seems to be intact. Awesome. Even the plant that we put in a box has survived very well!

House Hunting

Spent the day house hunting. Found a 3 BR house in Mitchelton that we quite like.
