Oh Kit, I'm so sorry you had that awful day and THANK GOODNESS your DH was with you. I would be scared witless with the bleeding, you sound like you handled it very well, you are very strong. Firstly - so lovely that you heard a heartbeat!! And your levels sound great!! I just wanted to tell you there was a woman in my BB group who bled - lots, like you have described - and is still going strong with her pg. With her, they said it was from a blood clot near her cervix and wasn't anything to do with mc but she went through a terrible time worrying about it. I'm so relieved that your bleeding has stopped - please do what your mum says and lay down for as long as you can or need to! Trash TV is good - maybe not time for True Blood? (weak attempt to make you smile). I also believe chocolate would be very helpful at this point - and lots of cups of tea (did you read my post about Chocolate Chai...mmm, it is good and no caffeine). Big hugs to you lovely, yes and definitely I would go Friday - why wouldn't you? I didn't understand that at all. Knowledge is power and, I think, it gives us strength. You will have a positive scan and it will give you strength to believe all will be well. Lots of love to you x

MurryCod!!! Clever woman - I'm smiling ear to ear for you - been busting all day to get home and read how you are doing. WONDERFUL news - 5 blasties and counting and a lovely perfect little one snuggling in right now!!!! Well done!!!! We're here for your crazy TWW - god I hope it flies by for you, I think it's going to send me a bit mad waiting too!! Rest up and try to enjoy this time (remembering that you are pregnant until proven otherwise!). I had a little mantra I would say to myself last time I was in the TWW (and I made DH say it too) "hatch, attach and grow" "hatch, attach and grow". I'm saying it for you now! Sounds so hopeful for you xxx

Ric!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!! What a beautiful Mothers' Day present!! Can't believe you could hold out on us for all those weeks!! Wonderful news - I hope you have a very happy and healthy pg x

Crafty - your turn next, then me!!

So for no more persies tonight, a bit brain dead and tired so heading off to bed.

AFM - had a really positive session with the TCM doctor today - she was very pleased with my chart, temps getting high and hormones seem to be evening-out. Diet is really agreeing with me (now I'm over my grumpiness and have got myself organised, I'm actually enjoying taking more time to cook and prepare yummy things for myself and still have had no sugar cravings which has made a huge difference to how I'm feeling). Still blissfully happy that have given the crap job the flick and no longer have to expend precious energy on it but can put some in reserve and last night I had a dream and in it DH was holding a baby in a harness and I was pushing a pram too! Twins!! That's how positive I'm feeling!! One, just one, will be more than enough for me.

Sweet dreams all,

Alice x
