Hi girls,

Sorry to have been MIA. Nowadays I am just too tired by the time I come home from work I don't even have the energy to do anything. I nap as soon as I get home at 6 pm, then have dinner and by the time I clean up it is bed time.

Welcome M2C and Alloy. It is very exciting and scary in the first few weeks but it is all worth it when you see that heart beat.

Bel - what a scary experience. I that the bubs are well and that the bleeding stops soon. Good thing the Ob could find the source of the problem (and it is external to the sacs as well).

LNB - Belly buddy... I think I am in the same boat as you. MS is bearable but just... and as soon as I thought I had it worked out.... it gives me a new twist... this morning it sent me into a spin

Janie - I don't know what pre-eclampsia mean but it sounds scary... well as one wise woman in here warned me that just because my sister and mother didn't have MS, I might not be safe... and she was very right.... I hope in your case that is so too.

On Trak - I hope your bub is well... hang in there hun....

To everyone else, I hope you are all cruising along.

AFM, had my 8 week scan and the bub is beautiful (sorry a little biase), measuring spot on at 8 weeks and having heart beat at 128 bpm. I had the scan 1 day before our 9th anniversary so it was a wonderful present for both DH and I. Our family are already making guesses as to whether we are having a boy or girl. My MIL's theory is if I am craving sweet stuff (which I am not really but in comparison to never wanting to eat sweets in the past to eating it just fine now), then I must be carrying a boy. I asked DH to place a bet on the issue and he said "o.k. if you say its a boy then I will say it's a girl. If I win you give me a boy next time and if you win we will have a girl next time." What sort of a bet is that! Anyway, DH is over the moon but is very clueless. I was very sick the other day and in his worried state said to me "should I take you to hospital?" Now who has ever been hospitalised for MS???

Anyway, hope you are all well. Have a nice weekend.
