A Prickly Day

What to give the couple who has everything prepared for their delightful bundle of joy's arrival?

INSULIN!

Yes, that's right - its all the rage these days, particularly if one hasn't gained weight for the past month (although son and heir seems to be expanding in all directions at once) and one's fasting BSLs steadfastly refuse to go below 5.5, despite a diet of steamed veges and meat product (well cooked of course). The insulin packaging is QUITE delicious though - an attractive grey pen for daytime, and a slinky shiny green number for evening. What more could a woman want?
Well, how about sticking one's finger with a sharp metallic object four times a day (with the option for more if one feels a bit funny in the head) - WOO HOO!

OUCH is more like it

I figure, that as this foetus was created with a series of pricks (FSH/Lucrin/B-hCG injections for those with minds in the gutter) then it is fitting that it should end with a similar pattern.
On the upside, I may be able to sneak in the odd (or more than odd) piece of high quality chocolate option.

Less than 8 weeks to go....tick tick tick tick tick
Bring it on
