    Hi ladies,
    how is everyone going?

    Welcome & congrats HPL!

    I am having horrible morning sickness, worse than I have ever had before, so that has got to be a good sign right?

    I had an appt with my GP (he is a new GP I've only been going there for a few months), and he was great, very reassuring. I wish I had of seen him when I went to emergency with the m/c instead of the yucky dr I saw the first time! Anyway, I feel alot better now, and he gave me the can't blame yourself speech - but I think for the first time I actually believed it, IYKWIM?

    I have my early scan (8w) booked for Saturday, so I think I will feel better after that, but I am also concious of the fact that we saw the baby and h/b last time, and then still lost it the next day (MUST NOT THINK OF THAT!!). As others have said, I think I will feel better after I have passed the nine-week mark. I am concious that I do feel different this time, I guess I just don't want to get my hopes up in case it's not.

    oohhhh it's hot..... how are you coping in this heat greenslw?

    eliselouise - it's blackmores morning sickness formula and is a combination of B6 and ginger. You take I think it's 3 per day and it builds up in your system and then you gradually drop them down as the morning sickness comes under control or, rather, when you get through the first trimester. Of course, if the ms hasn't finished, you just up the dose again and it's safe to take.

    milly - hope your u/s goes well on the weekend. It's great you've got yourself a GP that you're comfortable with and like. It makes such a difference.

    AFM getting lots of downwards movement from bubs. She seems to be taking aim at my cervix and punching with all she's got and it hurts a lot! She did it while I was driving the other day and it took all my control to stop from swerving out of my lane. That was the first time. Now that I know it's happening regular, I'm a lot more grippy on the steering wheel when driving but it's still a worry.

    greenslw - did you manage a movie today? if so, what did you watch? or did you go into labour instead?! lol (hope it was the latter!)
