Re: AFP levels

Hello all,
Well, i am back from my dreaded week end away and i must say that i
am soooooooo glad to be home. However the kids and i have a real bad
flu and i feel so crappy. Meanwhile, Neil who is complelty healthy is
asleep in bed. I am just saying a quick hello in here and then i am
gonna wake him up so i can have a sleep.

Pettina- I really started freaking out when i started reading your
messages. I'm glad that every thing seems to be ok now and how sweet,
a little boy!!!! This might seem like a stupid question but what is
AFP and NDT levels????? I have never heard of this before.

I had my 1st midwives appointment today and all went well. i am
booked in for my scan on Friday the 27th June so fingers crossed that
every thing goes ok with that, its only another 2wks away but i want
it to be over and done with now. This next 2weeks is going to drag.

How is every one else going? I hope that every one is well.

Well, i'm gonna head off and wake up a certain person and then have a
much needed nanny nap. take care every one and i'll be talking to you
soon.

Liz xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox
