Tildy, I am glad to hear that your scan went well. You had me worried about you and Kebab. I am so sorry that you are going to have to deliver at a place like that.
Lan, I am sorry to hear that AF arrived. Next month is going to be a busy one in here. I feel like there is going to be another big wave of BFPs.
So, my ultrasound and appt. went well. The baby is still about 1 week ahead so the doctor told me that he wanted to move my due date up! Yay I gained a week. He also gave me a hard time about having another ultrasound in 2 weeks. He said that I can come in to see him as often as I like but he doesn't need me to get all concerned about another ultrasound. It doesn't really make sense to me, I am going to be crazy waiting 4 weeks for the next ultrasound. Even more so because it is the ultrasound that has always given us bad news. He said after that one I can have as many as I like.
Hammi: sorry for AF. will keep fingers crossed for this month!
Tildy: I'm so happy it worked out for you. Very relieved.
MrsRobbo: sending cyberhug. It is very hard to cope with other peoples' pregnancies at a time like this, even though you're also happy for them.
cindee: best of luck!!
Laney: congrats on your u/s
afm: my scan went okay, fs saw the amniotic sac, but not the yolk sac (at least she wasn't sure if she saw the yolk sac or not) but she said I'm kind of early to see the yolk sac. Unfortunately, my hcg, although it's climbing, isn't climbing as fast as they would hope. so I have to go back on tuesday for another scan and more bloods. my fs says they need to monitor it, but sometimes it starts slow and then bounces up. One can only hope...

Tidly, so glad everything has worked out ok. It sounds like you will be giving birth in hell itself! I guess as long as you get a good end result it will be worth putting up with!
Lan, BUGGER.... what a lier you've made of me! I'm kind of glad though, now you'll be going with me next month!
now i'm getting pestered by DS, this is too frustrating... gonna run, will come back later when I can get some peace and me time
Oh fantastic news about Kebab. I didn't think there was that much room in the uterus at 23wks for the bub to swim out of range but there you go! Has s/he decided to move back to your front yet Tildy?
Laney, what a great scan result. When they say that you're measuring ahead, does that mean that you got your cycle dates wrong or does that mean that the baby is just big and therefore not expected to have the full 40wk gestation? Either way, yee ha to getting that bub safely in your arms one week sooner! When is the scary scan for you?
Paula, has your AF started yet for Dec? I'm on CD4 now. I must say that my AF has shortened a lot since all my naturopathy etc. so action mania starts soon. I've decided that if I don't get pregnant this cycle I'm going to have a massive sulk. My zen calmness will only work for one or two cycles.
What about you, Jo? Back to twice a day yet? Hee hee. How was your work Christmas party? Were you all hot :-)
Who else... Sue, not long till your big morph scan. I've forgotten, are you going to find out the gender?
How's your stitch Helen? Is is feeling any better? Can you feel?
Hi Cindee, good to hear from you and to hear that you had a good scan. Merry Christmas to you and your extending family :-)
Tempus, I hope the blood work tomorrow shows the HCG zooming up. Good on you for putting up your ticker. I love watching them.
Hey Rozzie, what is it like to be past 22 weeks? Does the pregnancy feel different now? Do you feel any more confident?
Lan and Jo - sorry to hear that AF reared her ugly head but consider that cycle as your 'practise' cycle. Hopefully AF will go away soon and stay away for a good 9 months!
Laney - how wonderful that bub's is measuring 1 week ahead. I used to love being told if Anna was even a day or 2 ahead.
Tildy - I was so relieved to read that Kebab had simply been taking some time out and sitting low. Kebab - don't scare your mummy (and the rest of us) like that again!
What else is news here - who has scans coming up? And of course good luck to our TTC bunch - especially considering that is what this thread is actually for!
Things are well here but I have had issues with breastfeeding. I had Pinky McKay come out and help me and I think after her 2nd visit we might finally be moving forward. Anna is feeding well and putting on weight but I was in immense pain - things have improved a great deal since Friday though and I think we might ( ) be turning a corner.
Helen, am so happy procedure went well but sorry you felt so sick. Hope you are feeling better and I have every faith in your long, tightly closed cervix!
Lan, damn that witch. Sorry she reared her ugly fat head. New year, new beginning.
Tildy, what an awful bunch of nurses at your hospital. Dont they realise how much we need reassurance after our losses? Aggrrr they make me so mad. I am very happy you eventually got in there for a check up and Kebab is kicking you to tears now. What a relief, you had us all so worried.
TM, hope all goes well and your HCG levels keep getting higher and higher.
Cindee, good luck with the move and the scan!
Laney, very happy your scan went well but if you feel you need another reassurance scan before the 4 weeks, insist! Say anything, make an excuse, whatever it takes. We have to be in control of our own pregnancies and not let these OBs bully us and make us feel neurotic. We have all been through so much and they MUST understand our concerns.
Hi Megan, Sue, Rozzie, Katie and Paula, hope you are all doing well. Sorry if I have missed anyone, am a bit rushed today.
