Maddison - oh wow - that is awesome news about bubs position. Good to hear you're being positive about his kidneys too. Oh sweetie - I am so excited for you and can't wait to read your BA and Birth Story.

Sparkles - sorry you were sick. Yukko. Gastro is never nice. It's just so miserable, feeling sick all the time and just waiting for the next vommie or squirtie ( other end). And then feeling so exhausted. Feel better soon.... pity that DH got it at the same time, otherwise he could have taken care of you. Congrats on reaching 18 weeks - it's an awesome feeling, each milestone.

Milly - I am so sorry that youre still sick. In a way having a good day is cruel, because it gives you hope there will be more days like that. I used to suffer from pretty severe & constant nausea for about 3/4 years and whilst I enjoyed the good days, it was hard when reality crashed around me again and I almost wished that I didn'thave the good day. But, the good days gave me hope for what it could be like. And gradually over time, it has improved. Had squillons of tests to work out why. Nothing that could be detected. Diagnosed with IBS. But interestingly, a better, diet, more fluids, more fibre and more exercise helps a lot. Anyway, I just hope a few mor god days can be strong together for you.

Bonham, HPL, Elise - big hugs coming your way...

AFM - 19 weeks now. I will get that ticker up and running. I have heard from the mods and it's ok apparently if my signature changes in old posts, but I ahve to change it in current/future posts ( so I don't breach the rules for posting in TCC/Loss threads)....5 more sleeps til my next scan - the morphology. As usual excited and scared intermittently. C'est la vie. Belly rubs.

Bon - good luck next week. I know you're nervous and scared. You will get through it.
