    Hi Lovely ladies
    Another quick one as I'm at work and work for a Visitor Centre - with the holidays, its busy.

    S&S ~ Congratulations and I know exactly how you feel, we'll get through it together! I want to try and enjoy being PG but I also can't wait to get to the 12 week mark. Every little symptom I worry about but just have to take everyday as it comes.

    Hope everyone is well

    Hi again, everyone,
    Another Beta today-- It was 211, so that means that it doubled from the 75. I requested another test on Monday to make sure that it is rising properly. I just feel that I can't get too attached until we see a heartbeat...and even then...well, I guess I am just protecting myself from sorrow-- as if you can do that! LOL.
    Anyway, sorry for no persies...I am just getting acquainted again. But thank you for the encouragement. My hubby and I have already beat the odds in some ways... I am glad that I didn't blow up like a balloon, given that I hyperstimmed a bit with the IVF.

    Wishing everyone belly rubs and joy...

    Happy birthday Luna - hope you're being spoiled today!

    Awesome news S&S - I understand the waiting for a heartbeat Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

    I am more comfortable today than I was yesterday - oh my gosh, it was like bubs was sideways across the top of my uterus and just really uncomfortable. Add to that DS not sleeping and being a right pain in the butt all day and me being absolutely shattered and you get my day. Oh - I tend to get teary when I'm tired too, so it wasn't much fun. Today much more betterer. Went shopping for presents for my Mum's 60th, now I just have to choose and get some photos printed for a big photo board my brothers and I are doing, and wrapping paper, and a card. Mostly done - the matt and frame are bought for the photos so we're on our way.

    Next thing - finish getting organised for DS's 2nd birthday! All birthdays all the time in the next couple of weeks...

    Luna - Thanks, I am still enjoying flutters, no kicks yet but not really minding! Happy Birthday!

    S&S - Yay for doubled beta! Hope Monday's one also rises properly too and your bub nestles down nice and snugly in there I know how you feel about trying to protect yourself. FX for a sticky!

    WBM - Ahhh no sleep is NOT fun! I also get teary when I'm tired. Glad you're feeling better. Happy Birthday to your Mum!

    AFM - I have the worst sore throat and cold ever. This is like the 3rd or 4th time I've had one this year and all in the space of the last 3-4 months. It HAS to be cause I'm pregnant. I know it'll all be worth it in the end but far out! I am exhausted from lack of sleep, but can't seem to get to sleep either. Not fun!

    Mel- YAY!!! You find out today! Are you telling us bellybelly girls?

    Congrats Cheshire!!!! She is so beautiful and a pretty name as well

    AFM: Just about flipped out on a horrible doctor last night. I called the on-call doctor at my clinic because the pain wouldnt let up and she literally said the following:

    "Yeah, it doesnt sound good what your having but there is no point going to L&D because they wouldnt stop your contractions anyways until your 24 weeks"

    Congratulations Cheshire and a beautiful name!!

    LD: after 3 nights of waking up at 3am and one of not actually getting to sleep until 3am, I finally slept a lot better (not perfectly but a lot better) last night. I put it down to doing nothing but resting over the weekend and staying warm. My nose is pretty much 98% fine now & scratchy throat is gone but it still needs clearing a lot. Praying that's the last bout for the year! Good luck for your scan today! I'm sure it'll be fine. Will be thinking of you xxxx

    TM: oh my goodness! Some doctors really lack a compassion gene don't they?! Sorry you have to go through this Hun, praying your little bub is all fine and stays put!


    Sent from my iPod touch - sorry for any mistakes!

    Well I ended up going to L&D and discovered I am not contracting or dilating (pheww)
    Though, I did discover I have a fever, so they think I have a tummy bug which is causing my irritable uterus and to just be careful. I feel very relieved
