    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!

    cmeglles, good luck with your appt. Glad you don't have too much m/s. I have had it bad twice and hardly anything twice.
    Thanks for asking about me. I don't have any appts until the 14th I could have if I really needed it but I have a home doppler. I can hear bubs heartbeat anytime I need to (which is a lot the past week or so). The worry is really starting to get to me now. The scan on the 14th is a big one for me.

    SB, thanks hun. It was a very difficult day for me. I tried to stay really really busy all day. It was such a bad idea. I was so tired out by the end of the day and Grayson was soooo over tired that we both had a bit of a melt down. We both feel a bit better now after a good sleep. I think the worry about this pregnancy is getting bad. If I listen with the doppler and down hear little kicks as well as the heart beat I worry....pretty much every little thing makes me worry right now.
    How are you doing? Are you all settled in your new house?

    dory, How did your appt. go? I hope the extra visit helped to calm your nerves.

    Hi to everyone else. I hope you are all doing well.

    hi all, just popping in to say hello

    katiegirl - congrats on the birth of xavier, such wonderful news, nathaniel would be so proud of his mum, hugs hon
    laney - hugs and thoughts to you for shelby's anniversary. its so difficult to know what to do to celebrate our angels, if you do too much it gets on top of you and if you do too little it does too, thinking you haven't done enough to remember them, wish there was some perfect medium to remember our precious angels, but so glad a good sleep was the answer for you both. and wow on grayson turning 1 next week, what a milestone.
    dory - your cat story was hilarious, sounds like you've got a couple of trouble makers on your hands, what better than to have a good laugh though, nice work furbabies
    cmeggles - good luck with your appointment today, i hope you get to discuss everything you need to.
    sb - hope your settling in well and keeping yourself busy, miss our chats, will have to do something about that

    AFM - had a scan yesterday and now bubs is apparently a big baby pmsl, can't win, last time he was small, now big, oh well guess all that good eating has helped him and me he's not overly huge but should be about the same size as ds was when he was born. I'll get my date next wednesday, most likely for the following week, but going to try and keep it hush hush as I don't like many people knowing as it puts an expectation in their mind. as far as most of my friends are concerned, i still have a month to go, so shhhh everyone lol. apart from that i have a cold and am on antibiotics so trying to rest up as much as i can. be back in a couple of days, love to you beautiful girls

    Cmeggles - I just wanted to reply to your query about a cerclage. I wrote a really long response and lost it. Blah. I would recommend you do it. For me, there was no conclusive evidence to suggest the cervix was the issue and I got a second opinion about it. On balance I decided to do it, despite the risks, and it made a big difference to how I felt emotionally and physically. I didn't expect to feel that way. I don't feel as vulnernable as I did before having it. Once its in you can't feel it. There is a forum site for cerclage. I will post it separately as well as some more info. I just don't have the will to write it all out again just now.

    How did your appointment go?

    AFM - I have been MIA caring for my fur baby. His procedure went really well and he recovered really well too. I was an anxious mess and have been fussing over him these past few days - just making sure he didn't have an adverse reaction to the anaesthetic. He is back to his spunky bold self and I am feeling more robust again too. As a result however I need to catch up. Will write some more when I have caught up.

    Belly rubs to all.

    hey guys!

    well i had a scan yesterday and bub is doing wonderful! measuring a week ahead of the date they gave me ( that was a week behind the date i told them fancy that hey lol) but the little sweet pea was kicking around like crazy and is doing really well..
    i keep telling myself that chances of the samething happening again are like getting hit by lightning twice but it is still really hard as i am sure all of you are well aware! Just have to keep my fingers crossed and take one day at a time!
    anyway i hope you lovely ladies are all doing well!!!
