HI ladies. Did a big post over the w/e but didn't go through.
This one might be a bit of brief catch up!

WTH - well done on telling DD! Typical child not showing much excitement but you may be right that she has already figured it all out on her own. My DS is only 2.5yrs but knows full well what a big belly and scans mean. Great that you can stop the cervix scans - one less thing to stress over!

Chappas - hope bubs doesn't hang in there too long if he/she a bit on the large side!

Megsmum - hope you are feeling much better. Great that at least baby not to big with your diabetes

Greenslw - yaay that bubba all fine on scan. Congrats on passing the magical 12weeks. Try not to stress re the progesterone support but If it really worries you maybe ask for a BT just to show your natural levels are ok

Easha - glad you have somewhere to live

Karen - yay that all going well - time is moving fast for you lately it seems!

Hannah - I am sure the cramps are nothing to stress to much over especailly if they have now stopped.
Could well be the start of BH contractions - they can start from 14weeks and are more noticeable for some than others. I have had very strong ones for months now

Pash and Lee- glad all is well with you both

AFM - gladly still plodding along. Start the steroids shots next week to mature "upsy's" l;ungs but hoping she hangs in a lot lomger and doesn't really need them
Am treating myself to a 4d scan in a few weeks. One of the non -diagnostic "fun" ones. This pg has been sooo stressful I don't think i have really allowed myself to bond with her so hoping the scan will make it seem more real.
Saw a dermatologist yesterday for the skin and hair issues. Skin is a bacterial dermatitis related to the steroids etc but should clear with treatment in a couple of mths. The hair is a sadder story - he thinks mostly caused by the MAJOR physical and emotional stress particularly earlier in this pg. My body has just freaked and dropped all the hair. Should eventually grow back but may take 1-2 yrs and quite likely never fully. I know its a silly thing to be so hing up on but I truly do look awful and the thought of being a semi-permantly bald woman is quite distressing. Not sure if I should seriously consider a wig
