February 2007


…the beautiful, the perfect, the aDORable…

Miss Abigail Pearl.

Who made her entrance into the world on February 23rd, 2007 at 1.35pm.  This makes her a Pisces, born on the cusp of Aquarius, and a little Chinese Pig(let).

Thank you so much everyone for all your good wishes.  Zan printed them out and brought them to me in hospital, where I enjoyed them in between my exciting schedule of Dr Phil, knitting, DVDs and my thrilling once a day trip to the shower.

Some might say my rant about medicalised childbirth bit me in the bum big time, and I’m bound to say that I agree with them.  Certainly knocked me off my smug, perfect pregnancy pedestal.  Still, we managed it so that the main event provided a peaceful, healthy and loving beginning for our precious girl, even if it wasn’t so peaceful for her parents.

We will be back podcasting very soon, and here is a challenge for all of you - we need a nom de plume for little miss Abi.  Gleek is taken, obviously.

Love to you all.

Jana

Hi Listeners,

It looks like wondertwin junior will be arriving early, which is why we haven’t been recording shows lately. Jana and baby are doing fine, but have to stay in hospital under observation until the birth (so Jana’s been getting plenty of the medical attention she didn’t want). I’ll post more information as it comes to hand.

Zan.

This week we introduce our new sloth/bees/babies focus for the show with:

* Sloth
* A great many Tvindy voicemails
* Bees
* Possible immigration destinations for the coming environmental apocalypse.
* More sloth
* The Australian Flag
* More Bees

And, in a new Things that are Dumb, Jana talks about the medicalisation of chilbirth (that’s the babies part).
