BTW- the consultant who did my 7 week scan said if everything looks good at 7 weeks and you can see a HB you only have about a 1/50 chance of mc. I asked him specifically as I was so jittery haha, so yes if everything goes ok tomorrow you can definitely relax a little!
It's been 7 weeks since mc but still not af...when to ring the GP?

Good call with the tissue- will definitely put one up my sleeve! Either way I think I will cry.
Scan is at 08.30am tomorrow- will let you know as soon as I can.
Let's hope I will be asking you for the amazon link to the Doppler soon

It went fantastically. As well as I could have hoped for. We saw the heartbeat and everything has progressed nicely the scan lady said. Me and DH had tears in our eyes.
There is still the area of bleed that is concerning but this has reduced from 2 weeks ago and is not too close to the sac but she said they won't need to look at it again until the 12 week scan. I am measuring as I thought (7+2 weeks).
Next steps are to get booked in with the midwife.
Thanks so much for keeping me in your thoughts.
Really don't want to go to work now! Want to go and buy a frame for my picture

How cute Jane! My scan pic from my 7 weeks is still my fave even though it's just a little blob. LOL. I think it's because it was the start and proof of my rainbow baby. I love all the scans since where I can see his feet and face, etc, but that first one is still my fave. My heart will still skip a beat when I see it in my wallet.
Hmmm well I got my bounty pack yesterday and it has some nivea cream in it so I think I will probably just use that. Had a look at proper bump cream the other day and thought maybe I should start applying it but its quite expensive and I think its only moisturiser. Getting a small bump already. I think maybe its good to start early to try and prevent the stretch marks but not sure. When did you start getting your bump Mackjess? Do you use cream?
I'm ok thanks.. counting down until 29th may now for 20 week scan. Already nervous. Got downs syndrome screening result back today as 1:19000 risk. How the hell did they come up with the figure 19000?? Are you going to have that screening Jane? How are you?

I don't scar easily, and even when my bbs got bigger with weight gain I didn't get marks. so far I just use regular lotion or my belly gets itchy, but I haven't used any cream. I use baby oil gel at night on days my skin feels more dry, but that was already a regular habit of mine. dh once asked if it was sleeping lotion cause I pass out right after I put it on. lol
Hmm baby oil gel sounds like a good idea Mack. Will try that. Have you done a nursery and bought things yet or are you going to wait a bit longer? I keep seeing cute things but have to resist as its too early and still feel I may jinx it. Baby had a lovely strong heartbeat this morning though and is moving up towards my belly button now. Love love love listening to it. Its magical! Beatiful day today isn't it Jane. Hope you aren't feeling too sickly. Enjoy your weekend ladies xx

I bought my nursery bedding around 17 weeks cause a local, and normally too pricey, baby store closed that week. it was 70 percent off, woot woot. and it was still at the top of my budget. lol but it's beautiful and different from anything I saw at the chain baby stores so I love it. do you guys have the big baby retail stores over there?
I am using my sister's furniture from her kids. my in laws want to buy our stroller and car seat and I'm waiting till after the shower to really buy stuff. I've picked up about 5 thingst clothes wise and a closet organizer, but I've been pretty good at waiting. it's really hard though, baby stuff is soooo cute.

Yes beautiful day here too bobster
Love the sleeping lotion comment mackjess. I'm really lazy about moisturising my body. I find my skin quite oily usually anyway and have a very good moisturing shower gel so don't use much more other than what I put on my face- will have to get in to the habbit though when I do get some lotion/bump cream. Unfortunately I do scar easily and have those unsightly spider veins on my thighs too.
Feeling ok thanks, generally quite bloated and tired with the odd wave of nausea but I'm finding that oddly comforting. Got my initial midwife appointment on 30th April (I will be 9 weeks). I would like the test for downs and anything else they recommend I have.
Pleased mini bobster heart is going strong. Are you on limited duties at work now bobster- you said you are a nurse? I think we won't stop worrying this whole time but I am rooting for you.
I'm going to try and knit my pregnant friends' baby a cardigan, and if it goes well make one for mine too- I'm a slow knitter so need to start early!
I know mrs phez and Mlm have taken a break from here but I hope they are ok.

Just popping in to say hi. Read your posts and thrilled to see you are all doing well!
I just returned from a week in the US Virgin Islands. Very beautiful and relaxing. I think I'm around 7 dpo, and will test on Friday I think. I'm not especially optimistic, but will let you know either way. My doctors appt is in 2 weeks, and I am looking forward to that so I can see what they think about me not getting pregnant.

Mlm its lovely to hear from you. We miss you and phez around here. Let's hope the relaxing holiday did the trick to get your bfp! But if not its good you have a Dr appointment to give you some peace of mind. I can't wait to hear your bfp announcement. Are you having any symptoms this 2ww? Still using opk's?
Jane wish I could knit. I learnt when I was young from my grandma but can't remember anymore. Sounds like things are progressing well with your symptoms. My nausea peaked at 11 weeks and then very slowly got better. Still have it now and then. Are you going to buy a doppler now you've had a scan?

Hey Mlm, great to see you popping in and pleased to hear you had a good vacation. Please keep us posted on BFP news/what your doctor says
Today I am 8 weeks so will hold off on the Doppler until I'm closer to 10. Nausea is getting stronger and more frequent but still haven't actually vomited yet (I'm scared of vomiting!). Tomorrow would have been my appointment for clomid
Bobster,my gran also taught me to knit years ago and have used you tube to refresh my memory. I find it quite relaxing but have never finished anything! Got an incentive now.
Mackjess, how is your bro's wedding plans coming on? It's this weekend isn't it?
