Oh my good Lord. It's 1349 - I'm going to say that slowly. One thousand, three hundred and forty nine!!! Nicely up from 214 so I am well and truly up the duff.

The nurse warned me that I might need another blood test (good grief) as a precaution as I've been testing so early but it's unlikely and then a scan a week tuesday. Huge sense of relief.

Thank you for all your support and kind words, it's really meant the world to me with a not-especially-touchy-feely-and-often-on-business-trips-husband to chat to. I'll be lurking, but on hols in NZ from Friday but will pop in on my return. Lots of luck to you all. x

Best ring DH. I did try him before I came on here, honest.
