Hi all,

Sorry for lapse in contact - just been very hectic around here at the moment!

Ella - sorry I have missed you but have a great trip and hear from you when you get back.

Ros - so glad all ok with the scan in the end - phew - that would have been a terrible few minutes inbetween for you though, you poor thing. bring on the 14th of June! how exciting.

Relle - I hope that you can avoid stitches too babe! I hear you on that one. I must ask Dennis how many he actually put in there when i see him.....don't work too hard with the painting! Don't want you doing yourself any damage.

Nox - great to hear all is well with you - my goodness your pg is flying!

Mel - so sorry about your nan - thinking of you today and hope that it will be an alright day for you all things considered. No worries about the catch up....we can easily pencil it in for another time.

Azi - I am so sorry that you had a negative experience with Linda. I agree with what the other girls have said - I have had two pgs with Dennis and I am the same as Relle - it took me a while with my first to realise that she was all bark and no bite - and once you get in there to meet her it's a completely different story. But I fully can understand how it could be quite off-putting if you don't know what to expect. I have heard her be terribly rude to people on the phone and I cringe! I also saw Dennis early so I think that it's probably got something to do with his leave and being fully backlogged with work when he gets back. God knows it's the only chance he gets to have a holiday! I also think that he would have seen you and spoken you through the miscarriage etc and been really supportive as he is very lovely like that but understand your moving on to another OB.

I have had some experience with Scott Pearce - being an endometriosis sufferer I have had many an op and he did my last one as the replacement of my previous gyno (before pgs). He is young and apparently brilliantly trained - very good rep. He wasn't my cup of tea though (only because I am used to "older" docs - seemed weird to have such a young man checking me out down there iykwim! LOL) and interestingly I had a bad experience with his reception staff where they stuffed up my appointments and hospital bookings and it was all a disaster in the end as I turned up to hospital fasted and ready for the op and they didn't know who the heck I was. Anyway, he is very very good at what he does though and I am sure that he will be fantastic for your pg. Best of luck and hope that all goes well for you this time.

Girls, I am off to Noosa on Sunday 17th June for two weeks (can't wait!), so could do morning tea this week some time if that suits everyone! Would love you to see Mimi before she is too big! Let me know how you are placed anyway and we can sort something out.

Take care all and chat soon
