There has been a request for a BG of this sort, for those who are pg with #1 after suffering a m/c whilst TTC. So here it is! I would respectfully ask that those who already have a child/ren do not chat in this BG.

Wishing you al the very best for a long, healthy and happy pg.

Hi everyone! Been a bit quiet for a few days as my home internet's been patchy (I log on, it drops out) but I'm back at work today after 4 weeks holiday (oh, it hurts!) so am sneakily logging on here

Welcome mojo, pincushion and plaschic! Plaschic, I hope things go well in your scan next week and you're here with us til all our little babies are safely born.

MaryLou - oh honey, what a horrible stressful day for you and DH. I was nearly in tears reading your post, I'm so glad it had a happy conclusion. Yay for that nice strong heartbeat!

Welcome back Fairey, congratulations and commiserations on your holiday nausea! I'm feeling pretty green these days, and it's reassuring but gross... though the second it disappears I'll be in a panic I'm sure!

Lou and Jlove - thinking of you for your upcoming scans x

And I hear you, Lou - I'm sure we all do - on just wanting to be able to be excited and not terrified, but given all our experiences it's a bit tough. I kinda envy women who get to naively go through their pregnancy without any thought that something bad might happen and without constantly checking for spotting - but I figure that'll just make us even better mums because we've been through more to get our babies, who will be squirming away in our arms around August this year!

I used to be the same on the waiting to find out if it's a boy or girl debate - but DH and I figured why not find out, there's no reason really for us. I want to get to know this baby as early as possible (once that precious second trimester rolls around safely)!

So now for me it's a wait til 3 Feb for the 12 week NT scan, I have no idea how I'll make it that far without reassurance, but hoping that the symptoms keep up and spotting stays away so that there's no need to be worried. If my nausea and boobs are anything to go by it must be ok (I was a C cup before, and I got measured yesterday for a maternity bra in DD!) I'm thinking I may have some balance issues down the track if they get any bigger, given I'm only 5'2!

And while we're bragging about our beautiful animal babies, I'm proud mum to a 4 year old kelpie cattledog with the sweetest personality of any dog I've ever met

Have a great day girls, and STICK BABIES STICK!
xx
