Cali - that's interesting that you had no sickness with DD; I've been basing my prediction of a boy partly on the fact that they say m/s goes with girls. Also a Chinese gender prediction predicted 'boy', but I wonder whether it still 'works' when you've been through IVF!
Thank you she's a sweetie!!jenniferannex, awwww, your lily is so cute!! LOL at thinking her own hb was a baby! Congrats on being 10 weeks!
AFM, My symptoms have been much more intense lately and I feel like a pile of poo. This has all caught me off guard because my pregnancy with dd was so easy. I guess I'm paying for that now with this one!
Ibelieve - I know what you mean! Just when I start to feel better about my pregnancy I read about people who have lost theirs and it affects me more than you'd think.
Jennifer - she's adorable!
Cali - Aww hope you feel better!
You are fine you're just a lucky one! It's hard not to worry but it's completely normal, I had no sickness with my DD all the way through! I was so grateful!!((Traylee))
I'm 9 weeks today and still haven't had any real nausea and certainly no morning sickness. They reckon it starts around week 6 and peaks at week 9. Do you suppose I'm safe??
Ladies I'm not sure what to do. I've just been to the loo and (TMI) when I wiped there was red blood not dark red but still pretty red. I don't know what to do. Its about 7pm here and I don't think there's any hospital nearby that would have the early pregnancy unit open. I don't have a direct number for my midwife. I'm not sure how much blood I should be panicking about (I'm pretty upset with this to be honest) but if I don't get anymore then it's probably not worth bothering anybody.
Any advice?

I'm disappointed with my doctors visit. I didn't have a scan. I didn't get to hear the hb. All they wanted to do was labs and I won't get any results for several days. the only thing I'm pleased about is that I will be transferred to another Dr because of my "advanced maternal age." Just from looking at the outside of me, she said I look fine. okay.
Finally plucked up the courage to look at the CDROM of pictures they gave me from my disappointing scan 2 weeks ago (I had to collect them a few days later).
The doc has def over measured the size of the gestational sac I can see his markers well over the line - this is good news as the bigger an empty sac the more worrying it can be and the measurements he said were right on the border of no hope. You are meant to measure within the inner edge of the line. I also think I can see a faint white bit that could be the yolk sac on one. Only 6days more till my next appt now...
I also took a digi yesterday, it didn't give much more info as it says 3+weeks but at least it hasn't dropped.
I hate this waiting!
On the "plus" side the nausea continues and I've lost 12lbs! I'm almost back at Ds2s pre preg weight!
Trinity - don't wait til December if you're worried Hun, I would ring the EPU today yourself and explain, say you're worried and I'm sure they will fit you in and you can have your mind put to rest!
When I went for my first scan they found a sac of blood and they gave me a card and said if I have any spotting or bleeding just ring and they will scan me ASAP, so sure your EPU will be understanding xx
Midwife is coming this afternoon, I do love the fact she comes to me and I don't have to go to her in the rain and cold!
