Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. Its so nice to know there are people you can 'talk' to who truely understand. I have some wonderful friends who have all been a great support, but none have been truogh anything similar, so most of the time they just don't 'get it'.

HPL - that is great news! Nearly at the magical 12 week mark. Im so thrilled everything is going as it should

Loopielouie - I know its hard but try to not get too disheartened until you know for sure. I bled bright red blood VERY heavily through the first 4 months or so of both my successful pregnancies. It really did my head in, so I totally understand why you are so worried. Sending you big hugs and hope you get some good news from those blood tests.

Sparkles - glad all is going well for you too!

Dory - I don't know all the details but reading through your posts, it sounds like you have been through so much. Im glad you and DH found a way to remember your beautiful girl. Sending you lots of hugs.

AFM- i have been on tender hooks waiting for the 'complications' to develop. I've never had a 'normal' pregnancy and have found it a little strange that we managed to get beyond the 6 week mark without problems. Here I am worrying about the fact I have nothing to worry about Anyway earlier in the week I developed really bad cramps which had me doubled up on the kitchen floor. They felt too high to be baby related, so I tried very hard to ignore them. Then over the next 2 days my sickness was not too bad and I woke up yest feeling fantastic. Rang my ob. in tears and he managed to organise a scan for the early arvo. Went in with DH expecting the worst, but there it was - our tiny bub with a tiny heart beating away!!! I just could not stop crying. So for now I am a little more relaxted to know that there is actually a baby there and that so far, we seem okay. Still nervous, but relieved for the moment. I am now 6 weeks and 5 days and hoping to God things continue on.
