Oh Nixon...very exciting.. good luck for the scan.
I have been wondering when/if I am going to get MS. Like you, I am so happy but sometimes find it hard to feel really confident and positive...I think it's just a side effect of having a hard journey to get here.
Look forward to hearing how the scan goes. Try and take it easy on yourself too... it's OK to be a bit of a crank sometimes. :lol:
mine is still a few weeks off.
Thanks Possums.
My ms is more like a hangover. Quesy, but not dry reaching. Headache, dizziness, cranky and all I want is pizza, chocolate and ic-ream - not necessarly in that order.
So hard to be balanced and healthy. I also have a new best friend called sweet-tooth. My old BFF, savoury-all-the-way, seems to have deserted me in my hour of need. I think savoury heard about the no more soft cheese and did a runner. B*tch.
Anyway - an hour to go....will let you know how it all turns out later on.
Nixon - out.

:happyforyou:
How great it is to see this thread filling up, well done everyone on your BFP's its a long hard journey and after all you go through they are so deserved!!
Nixon: waitin to hear how the scan was, so great seeing your little one and that little heart beat!!!
Possums: good luck with the BT tomorrow, sounds like everything is on track.
Numa: how are you going??
Poppihome: :welcome: and huge congrats, i had acupuncture too this cycle there is definately something in it im sure!
TL: yeeeehaaaaaa 12 weeks that is so great, bet you are just cant wait till friday to see little Pheonix again :)
Bee: the tiredness is yuk espicially when you cant tell anyone why you feel so s##t. Hope you start to pick up soon and big congrats :dance:
Devon: how was your appointment today?? Just laughing to myself as i read your other "bra" thread. Ive just been to the bra bar today and bought exactly the same bras as you? They are so cute arent they, so much better than the other fitter she was horrified when i told her what happened at BNT!
I just had my ob app today too and it was great i got to see little Ava again and it looks like she will be joining us on the 13th Jan 2009, Ob really not happy for me to go natural, so it looks like it will be a CS, have been doing my research as well and things are definately stacked against a VB (as much as i would love one!). It feels so real today and i can truly say for the first time i feel relaxed and almost elated about the whole thing (its only taken 22 weeks ;) )
Hello All,
I'm back from the scan.
HB of 146/minute - smack bang in the middle of the range (120 - 180).
The sonographer was great - she did 3 pics for us.
One pic makes it look like a squid, so we have a new nickname.
V.happy and a bit relaxed - will try and hold onto that feeling as long as possible.

Hi girls!
Wow, it certainly is getting busy in here - excellent stuff!
Welcome to the new pg ladies and congratulations!! Wishing you all healthy and happy pregnancies.
Nixon - glad to hear your scan went so well, it's such a relief to see that heart beating away. I hope that you can feel reassured for quite a while now. When's your next scan?
Scooby - heh heh - that's so funny that we ended up getting the exact same bras from the same shop! I really like them, they're very pretty and quite comfortable. Hope you enjoy yours! Glad to hear your appointment went so well, and very exciting that you know when Ava will be born! It's a shame that you probably can't go for a VB, but hopefully knowing now that it'll be a CS will give you plenty of time to adjust. So good to hear you're feeling relaxed - I know how you feel - it's been a long time coming.
My appointment went very well, baby is looking great, measuring a tiny bit ahead of dates by OB says still completely within normal range. We got a gorgeous 3D photo of his face - he's starting to look really cute, and more like a real baby - very exciting! Felt a bit rushed with the OB, but I guess seeing as there's nothing wrong there's not much to talk about. Glucose challenge test in 4 weeks. Oh, and I've put on 8kg since I was first weighed at 8 wks - oh dear!! Never mind, I don't feel too fat, just healthy and pg!
I hope everyone else is well.

Nixon - great news! hang on to that relaxed feeling, am so pleased the scan went well
Devon- glad you are feeling well and healthy and the pics sound great and v cute! happy your little one is also doing really well
scooby- sorry you cant go a VB but am pleased to hear things are progressing well for you and how lovely to feel relaxed and happy :D
afm- just had a BT to monitor HCG levels etc...it's now one week since our BFP! So I think I will feel a lot more relaxed if today's results come back strong. I am a bit nervous to be honest. Results will be in after lunch. My HCG levels were so all over the place when I had the ectopic pregnancy it would be nice to see them rise normally and steadily.
Good luck with your blood test results today Possums, can't wait to hear that your levels are rising nicely!

Devon :cheer: that is excellent news love the 3d shots :)
Nixon: Good luck sweetie with the scan
Possums: Goodluck too :)
Me: Just had bloods and Urine done for 12 week scan on Friday 3 sleeps today :cheer:
TL- 12 week scan soon- hooray...so happy for you
afm- just got BT results...HCG now 3860 (it was 360 a week ago) so all rising as it should be. Progesterone is 120, so that looks good too. Phew. :)
Hey P. Excellent news. You can breath a sigh of relief.
Are you having a 7 week scan?
Possums Great News :hug:
Thanks Nixon...I'm having an 8 week scan (sadly the ultrasound rooms were closed the week before, so I will be 8 weeks and 2 days :)... I was hoping to go earlier than 8 weeks but that wasnt available...nevertheless my SIVF nurse recommended the 8 week scan...)... that will be Oct 14th...so not tooo long to wait..a few weeks to go. Looking forward to that, just to have more reassurance and make it seem more real.
tiggerlinda- thanks...as you know it's hard not to worry at this early stage so every bit of reassurance is very welcome.
Possums - woo hoo! Your levels sound great to me! Excellent to hear that all is progressing well. How annoying that you have to wait for your scan, I hope it doesn't feel like too long.
TL - oooh! Good luck for Friday hun, it's going to be great - I just know it! Hey, you're almost in the second trimester - how exciting is that?

Just checking in again - I know I've been very quiet for a while...
We had the first of our extra scans today to check that we're clear of heart defects and growing properly despite only having a single artery in the umbilical cord. Very pleased to report that everything is perfect with the heart, and munchkin's absolutely spot on for dates and kicking about like a maniac! Immensely relieved to be able to report that my little man is still actually a little man, both DH and I could clearly recognise all the right bits - so that's a huge relief!
We both took the day off work to get stuff done around the scan today... and have managed to purchase a cot! It was in stock and we had the big car so we've even managed to bring it home today. The room is nowhere near being remotely ready for it, so now we need to store a huge box in there! I guess it's incentive to get a move on and get the rest of the room sorted to make space. I'm really pleased with the cot, too - kingparrot alice cot for $299! No mattress, we'll sort that out later - DH is being very, very particular about things!
I'm not even going to attempt personals (need sleep!) but I will try to keep up a little better from here on.

I think I lost this thread when we started a new one, so I'm a bit behind now. :(
So good to hear all the news about scans and things going well.
Not long to go until my 12 week scan now..just 12 more sleeps!! I'm starting to get nervous already. I am home really sick at the moment with tonsillitis. I could barely move yesterday and my temp was up around 38.5. Dr gave me some safe antibiotics and told me to keep the fever under control with panadol. I think DH was concerned I was overcooking Buddy... I could barely speak I was so out of it yesterday afternoon. It was awful. Hopefully on the mend now though.
Megan I lost it too so don't worry :)
1 Sleep till 12 week scan quick question how long does it take???
TL - mine was over and done with in 5-10 minutes! So make sure they give you a dvd as it is over so quickly - you need to be able to look back to remind yourself it was not a dream. It is mind blowing!
GL!
