Iona: oh no! I'm very disappointed for you. So sorry that your symptoms don't seem promising. I'll keep stalking to see how you are.

Murray cod: did you stay home in the end? I'm sorry you are in pain and worrying so much. I'm counting down to Tuesday with you when you get to see your baby. I can only imagine how unnerving the cramping is after all you've been through to get this BFP. I can only say again that in my experience cramping can be quite a normal part of pregnancy so i'm hoping that's all this is for you. (I've had cramps on and off this pg though not as bad as with my DD).

Millyd: ikwym. libido can leave the building and i've felt a bit guilty... like i wanted it before when TTC and now i don't so much. But it's not because 'oh i've got pg i don't need it anymore'. I can't help it if i don't feel like it. DH is pretty understanding but still lets me know that he's available any time i change my mind! I think it's hard on them because they haven't got any reason not to feel like it anymore (no crazy hormones going around) but i don't think we should have to BD a whole lot when we don't feel like it.

Milly5: hello, nice to meet you! Sorry you're uncomfortable. I don't think i have any helpful suggestions if the pillows aren't working, sorry!

Dory: Can't remember when I last said hello as we're crossing paths in a couple of threads but i think i saw somewhere that you are 26 weeks. I'm thrilled for you. Keep up the good work!
