      What he said Congratulations you're a family! Actually what a great expression that is Laura, "You're in the family way"

        Well thanks for the "Update" Laura.. all you've got to do now is get that car fixed up before the baby comes, because that's when ALL the money will disappear.

        Mrs Shark is expecting in March (15th) so it's the sensible road for me soon too.

        Oh and by the way, she's 16 weeks and still chucking up just about every day. Poor lass!

          yeah I must say I was relieved that we have kept the avant - much more worthy than the diddy Golf TDI. I'll let Ross write the update on the car, but things are rolling along very smoothly and altho we prob wont make the Oct ADI at Castle Coombe this year, we're hoping she's up and running very soon.

          Oh No! 16 weeks and still being sick? Ugh. I feel for her. I'm only half way to that point! *gulp* My docs wont give me tablets either he says "morning sickness makes you feel grotty but you wont die from it, so just go home and deal with it!"

          ha, as if he knows what the hell I'm going through....

            Well you'll supposedly stop at around 12-14 weeks, but Lauren is still getting it most mornings and evenings. I think she's kind of used to it now.. I try to sit with her whenever I can as it comforts her and hopefully shows my support. Don't know why but I find it difficult to feel involved in the whole thing.. the midwife is a bit of a feminist and talks as though I'm pretty much not there. Her ears soon pricked up when she was doing the paperwork, running through the family ailments going down the list expecting "No" to every ailment... "Any genetic problems... no." *Tick* Er, actually, yes, love. Yes, hello, me, over here, I do exist.

            Grr.

                      Congrats you will never look back once you hold the little bundle of joy and as Ross said there is some sweet Recaro baby seats you can get them trimmed in matching material as the car or as close as hopefully sickness will pass soon

                      cheers Raj

                              Haha funny you should mention that thread - anyone still wondering why I went super crazy at the end??? HORMONES!!! lol just didn't know it at the time. In fact, that was one of the tell tell signs that something was up - I recall back:

                              Ross enters bedroom with Laura propped up with pillows, laptop to hand and looking up at him with great big teary eyes. "The forum boys are being so mean!!" she exclaimed and for no reason began weeping uncontrollably. Ross raises an eyebrow. "Laura....are you alright?"
                              Laura shoots him a glare. "of course I am".

                              HAHA only a week later - we saw that heart stopping word "Pregnant" on Clear Blue digital. LOL
