KAM – it was so good to go back and re read that your scan went well. Hope it gives you some reassurance.
Teagz – awesome to hear from you. It's so good to see Jackson's little ticker moving forwards. Amazing to think he's 4 months old.
Starbright – you had so much to oragnise! I am so glad you have moved and are settling in. It sounds like you have your ante-natal care all sorted too. Just take care.
M04 – wow – that is such good news. I can imagine how relieved you are... I hope that your scan helps give you some more reassurance.
JLK – good to hear from you – sorry you are doing it tough. Looking forward to when you feel strong enough to post more often.
Ellie – oh sweetie – how can you not be struck by the momentousness ( is that a word?) of the birth of your darling Teyha, but whilst remembering the long hard road to have a princess for each hand. I love that little saying too. Thank you for your words of inspiration, I find they help.
Klee – congrats on your “tree change”. Impossible timing though. I am sure your mum will only be too happy to help. I hope that your scan next Thursday goes well. Have everything crossed for you. I know its hard approaching those milestones....and remembering our angels. Do you have anything planned or will you just quietly mark the day? I hope that was the last of the meltdowns for you..... keeping you in my thoughts.
Cmgelles – you've gone a bit quiet – are you ok?
Charli – oh sweetie. The BFP is the start of a a journey that is far more harrowing than the TCC journey. But the one thing that is different, is that right at this moment, you have your miracle baby growing stronger and being nutured inside you. That is truly the most amazing blessing. That's the thought to hold on to, if you can. For me at least that thought made those early days more manageable, although the fear is palpable and paralysing. But we all have to find our way through. Certainly in a pregnancy after loss, we take nothing for granted. But just as much as we are scared that history will repeat, we should also hold onto to hope that this baby will be delivered safely into our arms and be taken home to be parented. You will be anxious leading up to your scans and the milestones. Hoping the scan brings you some much deserved reassurance. I have every faith in you and your bubs.
Laney – gosh you have a lot of significant dates approaching. Do you have a plan for trying to get through them? Sending you my love.
AFM – not too much going on. Went to a funeral today. A person involved with the sporting association I have been involved in. The whole experience was weird – reminded me of the funerals of each of my angels, which then made me feel a bit guilty for thinking about myself. Then baby was moving vigorously – a first for me when I sitting up, but that was ironic. Being so happy for the movements of the life I nuture inside whilst also remembering the person who the service was for. There were some beautiful singing, which is always uplifting. I was exhausted physically from the service, and was happy to get home to my bed. Have a good weekend. Take care. Belly rubs.

Hi Ladies!!
KLee...
Laney...
jlk..... BASH< BANG##* WACK^^ SLAP>>> Thats me beating your crazy lady with a big stick.. GO AWAY CRAZY LADY!!!!! Seriously though- your journey will be hard right to the end Jo..
dory.... Another bitter sweet little wohoo to you dear- well done on making it this far- you are fast approcahing being the most pregnant you have ever been (in saying that sincere
Im sorry you had to attend a funeral- i think its normal for anyone with a life growing inside them to feel slightly weird while trying to concentrate on death. Its kind of hard to ignore the wiggles and not think about the irony. The way i see it- is that life and death is a cycle, so to have life there must be death- the two are so intertwined- (as we all know REALLY well) When is you rnext check up or scan??
Hi to everyone else out there, breakfast time is over here, so its playtime! I will try to catch up on more personals soon xoxox
Take care everyone!!

Starbright - thankyou for your kinds words... they helped. Hoped breakfast time wasn't too chaotic. How is Shane going? Hard to believe he's not that far away from the big '2'. My niece popped around the other day and for various reasons I hadn't seen her or her kids ( my great nephew and niece) for about 8 months. Her little girl was 10 months last time I saw her and is now a cut little toddler aged 18 months. Her little boy was just as cute and talkative as ever. I imagine that Shane is just as cute as a button. How is he coping with your expanded bellly?
I have scheduled appointments with my ob every two weeks - the last one was Wednesday last week and the next one Wednesday next week 2nd June. However as I am feeling in need of reassurance, I have an appointment scheduled for tomorrow. Was hoping for today, but can manage with tomorrow. Today is my obs caesar/procedure day, so he's usually in theatre until later in the arvo. I have a friend coming to visit, and didn't want to put her off. So tommorrow it is for a variety of reasons. No more scans booked, but am going to arrange a non diagnostic scan, again for reassurance.
On a much funnier note, we took all 3 cats to the vet for their annual check up and vaccination on Saturday. OMG it was hilarious. The 3 of them all yowled at the tops of their lungs as soon as they were in the travel crates and continued for the 30 mins car trip and THEN in the waiting room whilst we waited about 15-20 mins. They scared one cat into the back of her crate, and instigated another two to start up a racket. Strangely, they were quiet during the consult, but then as soon as they were out of the consult room the racket started again and continued all the way home. When we were in the waiting room, everyone was laughing at them. My mum says better than frowning or telling us off. We got a recording of the cacaphony and will email it to some of our cat lover friends, who might understand. I told DH it was good practice for when baby is crying in the car or in public....fur babies, wouldn't b e without them....
Mo4 - how are you doing? I hope still without any more bleeding.....
Laney, Klee, JLK, - thinking of you...

Hi everyone,
dory- congrats on getting this far! I am so proud of you! You can totally think of me as bermuda girl....I am pretty suure this baby was conceived in Bermuda so I find myself addressing the little one as Bermuda baby! hehe. I loved your cat story.....so funny!
Katie girl- Congrats on the arrival of your DS
Ellie-Congrats on the arrival of your DD
Wow- it seems so far away for me!
MO4- wow the bleeding has stopped! Hooray! My last pregnancy i had a subchorionic hematoma....and I bled for almost 10 weeks....it was SO nice to have it done.....on the downside witht his pregnancy I keep waiting for the bleeding any day.
Charlie B- when is your due date? It will be neat to see how close we end up. I think mine is January 8th.
Klee and starbright- How are you doing?
Klee- closing on your due date! Wow! I hope your DH is a good decorator! Best of luck to you in your new house and a HUGE congrats!
Beata- I cannot believe Cameron is already 10 weeks old! Wow! I guess time flies!
Laney- How are you doing? Do you have some apts before June 14 to at let you listen to the little heart? Does that help?
AFM- I am doing really well- a few nightmares but overall really well. I am not bleeding which is HUGE for me right now, and really helps with my peace of mind. I am also really not dealing with too much m/s which I really can't complain about- a little nausea here and there is far better than throwing up every day which was what I expected. I am headed into my first doctors apt tomorrow. No scans or bloodwork or anything scheduled yet......Any advice on talking about cerclage? I have the option, but they really don't know if cervical opening caused the infection that they think led to my miscarriage ugh I hate that term) or vice versa.
Best of luck everyone!
