Hello all. I think I was 13 and a half weeks when I had mine Brunette, as it was Christmas and New year and they only did them two days a week. So it must be ok, because the doc was quite happy with that. Thank you for the compliment Paula, I told DH and he rolled his eyes at me so he obviously doesn't agree!! cheeky bugger!! I'm off to the hospital tonight on my own for the hospital visit, insert rude words here. DH has a board meeting to call into, and my friend who is my birth partner is in New Zealand kicking some poor call centre manager who is underperforming's arse. I wonder if I will remember the things I get told when I'm in labour! I hope they aren't this busy on the actual day.... if they are, you'll all have to come and join me in the Royal Wimmins in Melbourne. Just bring chocolate to ensure entry to the birthing room : )
Sonya YAY on NY. You will have the most amazing time! I wish to go there one day.. but those being the key words "one day"!!! I hear you on the anxiety of waiting for a scan. Hopefully it will be here quick for you. LondonMiss how did your hospital visit go last night?
Firstly, thank you for such a warm welcome to this thread! Sorry I posted then disappeared for a while, got a dreaded head cold last week, so have been laying low.
Brunette - your outing sounded exciting - bet you didn't expect to go on a thrill ride while you were out! Hope the house arrest isn't driving you TOO crazy. I am salivating at hearing you've been instructed to drink wine! Its the thing I'm missing most, even bought a de-alcoholised wine from the supermarket the other day to try and fool myself, with no luck! I totally understand that its stressing you though, we do so much to protect our little bubs, it must feel weird to be told to do it. Trust the doc, they wouldn't say it if it wasn't beneficial. I hear you about the lack of support re drinking, DH started drinking for the both of us, I think! I've put him on 3 AFDs (alcohol free days) a week now, as punishment for being able to drink.
CK77 - hope you had a great time up in Cairns for the wedding, oh, to be nice and warm in the tropics!
Renee - was so excited to read about your scan, I've got a week and one day til mine - nervously awaiting it! Happy birthday for the 16th! Hope you're feeling ok and the MS isn't too bad.
LondonMiss - good advice on choosing the books, there's so much info out there. Thanks for the tip on preg yoga too, am looking forward to getting into it once this darn OHSS buggers off.
Wantbaby#2 - hello to a local girl! I'm in Penshurst, going to go to Hurstville Private though, not St George. Who is your OB? Hope the nursery is coming along nicely!
S'rose - CONGRATS on your pregnancy! How magical to get that BFP. Thanks for your support, have been chatting away to the little bean, and making DH rub my belly (he's rather reluctant though! Maybe when its a bit fatter, he'll be more enthusiastic). You HAVE to go to New York! That would be absolutely brilliant! Had a giggle about your sore BBs when you were clapping, have had that problem too, they seem to always get in the way at the moment! I too am wearing a singlet to bed, I call it my "boobcatcher"...
KitKat - sounds like you're having fun with your increasing pg symptoms! Good luck for your next BT test tomorrow, hoping your progesterone and hcg are sky high!
Lise - hope your pg massage was lovely today, it sounds divine!
Mitf - Japan sounds awesome, hope you had a great time.
Paula - thanks for your words, I'm such a worrywort at the moment, its nice to know I'm not crazy! Have a great time at your scan on Saturday, it'll be like a little window into your belly, hope you get lots of great pics!
HI to anyone I've missed! Sorry, still getting my head around where everyone is at! Hope you're well and feeling good.
AFM - I went to see my GP yesterday to have a download on her, and to get another HCG reading to tide me over to the scan next Thursday! Feeling good today about it all, I'm 6 weeks exactly now. Looking forward to getting the HCG results though. Apart from my head, I'm feeling OK, except a head cold, and the OHSS seems to be lurking a bit. Feeling bone tired more than anything, luckily I only work 2 days a week! Having a lot of nana naps... zzz
Sorry for the long post. Have a great day everyone!
Sorry, still getting my head around where everyone is at! Hope you're well and feeling good.
