I have to get the newspaper, buy the lottery tickets, go into town and do some shopping, do some chores around the house and garden. Then I suppose work on my site. Actually that's not really a lot of things I have to do :/.
What are you up to this weekend? Smedlos you must be sitting by the window with your BBQ all ready just waiting for it to stop raining heh. And Kawada, knowing you it'll be PGR3. Possibly more Taekwondo practice on Sunday if I think I need it and getting the TV wires and space sorted out for the Wii next week :)
It's tough. :)
Oh and Kawada get your spy training done already! :P

Advantages of epidurals
* Epidurals nearly always give good pain relief
* Because the drugs used are injected into your back, very little goes through to your baby.
* An epidural can help to control your blood pressure if it is a little high while you are in labour. (if you have very high blood pressure and your blood clotting is affected then it may not be safe for you o have an epidural, but this is rare).
These are performed alot though and very rare that anything will happen. Its only as good as the person injecting you. People will take to it differently!
