    Hey ladies you got room for one more.

    Finally DH and I got our BFP last Thursday on our second IVF cycle and I think we are both still in shock!!

    There is still such a long way to go and hope this little one is nice and sticky...

    I went this morning to get my levels checked again as I had a small spot around 3am this morning and HCG is at 427 and Progesterone is at 422 so far so good.

    I am so excited to join you all and have seen several of you post in the AC threads in the past and want to wish all a H & H Pregnancy.

    Looking forward to chatting with you all in the following months.

    Thanks ladies, I still can't believe it...I must still be in shock.
    Quick question, I had another light pink spot on the toot paper on Sunday and this morning did any of you get this??

    Possum, yeah for your scan in a couple of weeks.
    I think mine is in 14 sleeps time...not that I'm counting or anything

    Congratulations Nic So wonderful to see you here.

    In regards to the light spotting, I didn't have any, but I know a lot of women who did and continued with perfect pregnancies. I think that if it is light/occasional then there isn't too much to worry about. If it is heavy and red then you need to get to the doctor/hospital. Your levels sound great! If you are worried, ring your doctor/nurse and check with them. It is better not to sit and stress about it.

    Wishing you a H&H pregnancy.

    Congratulations, Nic! The shock wears off about the same time the nausea sets in... May the rest of your pregnancy be happy and trouble free, and the spotting can nick off! Afraid I don't have any experience with spotting like that, though.

    Hi Everyone
    I will attempt to do personals Im just so happy that this thread is soooo busy
    BW: Hope you REALLY enjoy school hols and find some way to relax and pamper yourself!!!
    Nicole: Big Welcome. Yes i had some spotting around 12 weeks and it is quite normal to get a little when your period would have been due, the dr told me as long as its not heavy and not accompanied by alot of pain. In any case its always worth getting checked out to put your mind at ease!
    Possums: hope the next 2 weeks fly by, V exciting!
    Tl: so glad all went well with your scan, sounds like you have a very well behaved little
    bub!
    Poppihome: hope your doing ok, thinking of you
    Queen: so so happy everything was good with your mum, that is just so scary and a stress you and your mum definately dont need with your little bub on the way.
    Shannon: i really cant believe you are still working, you must be totally exhausted with 2 big bubs kickin around in there, hopefully these last few days they'll let you slack off abit i think you deserve it!
    BG: Just so great to see you in here, so sorry your feelin so ill though, but like you said its so reassuring, but hopefully the edge will be taken off by the seabands they are really good, but leave you with just enough nausea to know everything is good. Hope the next few weeks fly by till you can get to see that little
    oh how excting we have new smiles!!!
    Devon: hope your enjoying the long weekend and the awsome weather, bring it on i say.
    AFM: Feelin good espicially with this great weather, roll on summer, but bubs is sooooooo busy i actuall feel very very sore today, did some gardening yesterday and dont know if that brought it on, but my lower abdomen is just aching like i have been kicked (which isnt surprising) DS was never this active, she just doesnt seem to stop! Well it all feels a little boring at the mo with no appointments or scans or tests i hardly know what to do with myself and DS has gone to spend the week with his grandparents, so im lost, will be ok once im back to work wednesday.
    Well really hope i didnt miss anyone. Have a lovely day (probably week by the time i get back on here) Good luck and tonnes of sticky vibes to you all
