,

Bob & I had decided a couple weeks ago that we were not going to do the afp

test. I've stressed out enough without the added stress of a test that

gives false positives and doesn't really give you any concrete

answers...just a probability that you will fall into a certain group. Now

that I've seen you and Dana go through this torture (that's what I'd call it

anyway) I am that much more convinced that we made the right choice, at

least for us. I'm not in any way trying to say you did the wrong thing,

just that your experience has helped solidify my stance against not taking

the test. Make sense? I'm sure you are going to get great news tomorrow

which makes all this worry just seem that much more unnecessary. I'm sorry

that have had to think about this all weekend. It must of been a tough one.

{{{HUGS}}}

I really wonder how much weight I'm going to have gained since my last appt.

I don't feel like I gained much and I don't trust my bathroom scale much

since I can step on it 1 second and it says 1 thing and then the next second

another. I will just have to wait until next week to get the official

reading at the dr Yesterday I went to visit my friend who had her baby

last Thurs. and she told me she gives me a month before I look huge! Nice,

eh? She wasn't trying to say I'm big now, but because I am also not a very

large person to begin with and not very wide, she thinks my belly is going

to become very noticable very quickly. That's fine by me, though, cause

then people can stop wondering if I'm pg or just fat! )

I didn't do bad in my summer class, but not well either..I got a B+. I

know, I know that's not bad, but I'm somewhat of a perfectionist and if it

isn't an A of some sort, I am not happy with myself. But I didn't try very

much for this class either, so I guess I only have myself to blame. I'll

get over it!

I hope you get wonderful news tomorrow and can start to relax and enjoy your

pg!
