    Hi ladies,

    I wonder whether I can join you in here?

    Firstly a massive congrats to everyone on their BFPs and I'm really sorry to hear that there are so many angel mummies who have grieved the loss of their bubs

    After approx 12 months of TTC I fell pregnant for the first time in August last year however sadly I had a miscarriage last year (first preg) and found out my little princess had trisomy 16. We got our second ever BFP earlier this month and I had my first scan on Friday which set me back a few days which I am not surprised about as I have crazy, unpredictable cycles and PCO! Bud was measuring 5w6d at our scan and the sonographer said that we were lucky to see the HB as it had just started beating - 100BPM. I was an emotional wreck because with my angel baby the sonographer kept saying to me over and over 'you are so early' (which I knew I wasnt) and the HB was slow - so I felt that history was repeating itself on me when I had to have an internal etc. But the sonographer assured me that all looked good for the stage of my preg.

    I have my first OB appt next week and will be requesting another scan for approx 8 weeks to make sure the HB has gotten stronger and bubs is growing up big!

    I cant believe how differently I feel emotionally this preg - so nervous and I actually feel somewhat guilty that I dont feel as 'excited' as I did last preg... does anyone else feel like this?

    Anyway, better get some shuteye!

    Em
