Morning ladies. A bit tired I am after a good night of food and drinks. I wish I didn't have a dentist appointment today. I hate having my teeth scraped clean!
Lucy, with all of my pregnancies, I held onto hope until I was being rolled into the room to get my D&C. It is normal and expected. I will hold that torch of hope with you. Thinking about you tons and tons today.
Cesca, good luck with your 12 week scan. We all know how scary the scans are. I'll send good vibes your way babe.
Vicky, rice milk is even better than soy milk. My friend will just have to survive. No frozen pre made pie crusts? What a shame! They are so much easier to use than making one from scratch. By the way, what is the difference between a grocery store and a supermarket. The words are interchangeable for us.
All these ghost stories and cauliflower talk! I don't have any ghost stories, but boy you all have some good ones! I don't rule out any of that stuff. You never know.
I LOVE cauliflower. I love it raw. I love it steamed and plain. I love it with cheese. I love to roast it with olive oil, garlic powder and paprika. I love it pureed into a soup. It is one of my all time favorite vegetables! And so healthy too! Please stop the insults on my good friend cauliflower!!
I know I have some other comments for you all, but now I can't remember what everyone wrote. I'll go back and read.
My appointment with the new FS is tomorrow. She is a specialist in recurrent miscarriages. This is what it says about her online:

She has a special interest in unexplained infertility, uterine disease and recurrent pregnancy loss. Huddleston is actively researching endometrial biology, recurrent miscarriage and ethnic differences in reproductive potential. She has spoken nationally on her research, which has been published in numerous medical and scientific journals.
Huddleston earned a medical degree at Harvard Medical School and completed an internship and residency in obstetrics and gynecology as well as a fellowship in reproductive endocrinology and infertility at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. She is a member of the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology and American Society for Reproductive Medicine.

My girlfriend who just had a miscarriage also sees this doctor. She told me she saw her yesterday and LOVES her. I'm really looking forward to being in capable hands.
