Re: Stefan's garters

Thanks.

She has increased in weight by about 70% since December and about 24% (IIRC) in the last 2 months.

No, that's 90 grams. 132 grams when she went into hibernation, 222 grams now.
Note, my math sucks, but I think I'm right this time.


I don't know if she's gravid, I hope that she is, but I haven't seen anything conclusive signs that she would be.

I am an engineer, but I was never good at math. Maybe I'm above average now, thanks to several repeated math courses.

Isn't that a scary thought, though? An engineer with bad math skills.

Re: Stefan's garters

I don't have any reason to assume that she is. If she is, she's definitely hiding it well. I'm not convinced that the weight increase is drastic enough to be taken as any kind of sign.
