Ooh good news
I went to work today to talk about returning to work after SMP.
I'm due back on the 17th May BUT I get to use 5 days holiday from LAST year so I offically return to work on the 23rd May and then I'm getting made redundant on the 30th June.

I only have to work 5 weeks!!

I wasn't planning on going back to work until I heard I was being made redundant lol
AND I might get some sort of maternity pay!!

BUT I haven't had my reduced hours confirmed yet Eeek

no not really hun theres a slight slight pink or brown tinge to my mucas but thats it

I had a brown tinge to my mucas a couple days ago. I was so worried but all seems fine now. I'm crossing my fingers. I seen my doctor and they are checking my Hcg levels. Hopefully I'll get my results tomorrow. Hope all is well with you!!!!

im still debating telling my friend and going to the hospital tomorrow caus its like little bloody streaks in the CM when i wipe ( sorry tmi ) and its been nearly a week of spotting on and off and this kinda thing.

Id go and get it checked out for peace of mind hun, if its nothing then at least you can stop worrying about it. They might do an early scan for you or at the least a blood test to see if your hcg level is still rising

Mine was to early to scan. I was only 4 weeks 2 days but they checked my hcg numbers and they are perfect!!! Just got the call from the doctor!!! Hope all is well with you

Helen -
I thought you could request a hospital?? Last time I had the choice of Southmead and St Michaels.
But this time they just wrote St Michaels on my notes without asking.

Luckily we havent paid for t he hol, MIL paid and we were guests

you should stay in your caravan just to see DH sleep up there!! Me and OH had to sleep seperatley towards the end of my pregnancy last time

It is so interesting hearing you guys talk about picking hospitals. I live in the U.S. and we go to the hospital that our doctor is affiliated with. So, my doctor goes to two different hospitals so I have to pick one of them.

I dont think we rly have our own drs here. We just go to a clinic and see whoevers on duty-that's how it works for other stuff at least.

We get the same midwife throughout afaik but they are just for prenatal care. For the birth, again we just get whoevers free

So gotta choose hospital based on the overall quality rather than just one dr as you might get a junior working on you one day

I know the feeling girl!!! and I'm glad that your scan was okay My best friend reassured me that she bleed during two of her pregnancies. It's tough though. I had less the a quarter size, one time, and I was worried for days. Good luck and keep us posted!

So, Interesting! We have a different doctor for everything over here. I was seeing my gynecologist for 20 years and now she is a primary care doctor so I needed to find a new one. I love her so far!!!!

We had our honeymoon in California a few Yrs ago. I had a facial at a posh hotel and the person said I had rosacea and that I should see my dermatologist. Was like yeah sure. No way I'd get a referral for rosy cheeks

i just want its just typical how its all my fault and apparently i cant be happy unless everyone feels sorry for me he lost me with that one, i dont see how he doesnt understand that being a D-head when im pregnant always ends up with a fight? have i not been pregnant enough yet for him to have figured that one out

and i feel like atm he wouldnt care if i had lost the baby
