Laney, congrats!! Paula is right, BFPs ARE contagious in here. It's wonderful!!
Sue, almost 10 weeks, you're so close to the 2nd trimester!! With the medication you should do whatever you're most comfortable with.
Helen, I hope you can get some really reassuring results soon. As soon as you do, you'[ll probably start feeling terrible with the MS.
Lan, has your sale gone through for sure yet?
Katie, wishing you luck as you count down the days, how exciting!
Jo, it's natural for you to go through down times. You're doing well to be at work and going to parties at all so take whatever time you need and don't worry about other people's feelings, you need to put yourself and your family first.
As for me, I've had a horrible week with a pounding headache that I can't get rid of. I've had two days off and a very two unproductive days at work spaced out on codeine. Nothing to be done but lots of resting, hopefully having a weekend at home with DH looking after me will be help. To make things worse, I went to the doctor this morning to get the day off and he said my thyroid looked enlarged, so I had to get some blood tests. He looked back through my file and saw I had a thyroid test 18 months ago that came back normal, then he asked me why I'd had all these tests for a miscarriage, gesturing to a picture of his baby grandchild saying his daughter had a miscarriage at 6 weeks then went on to have a healthy baby. I said it wasn't at 6 weeks it was at 22, and he said 'oh, that's pretty rough' at which point the tears came. They always do when it's someone new. Anyway he said he'd call through with the results when he got them, but in the meantime I don't even want to know what it could mean. My mother has always had an overactive thyroid but her body seems to compensate for it and she's never had any problems, esp with having babies. She jsut eats all the time and is always doing something, which is great when she visits as she's like a one-woman non-stop working bee!!!
I think I felt a kick this afternoon in bed... have been feeling things for a week but not sure. Got out the doppler again this afternoon and have found a great spot where I can hear my own heartbeat then can compare the baby's just to make sure they're different... but I can never lock down bub's HB for very long as he/she keeps moving around so I have to follow it!!
Sorry for the marathon, I hope everyone has a lovely weekend.
