Katie thanks for posting that this morning, I have opted for the Nuchal Fold screening and have to go to another city (or to a city) to have it next week because my hospital doesn't do it.
Scan went well, the sonographer did that thing they always do and kept the screen away while she hunted for the baby and the heartbeat and when she turned the screen round all I could see was a blob. I said "Hasn't it got any arms yet?" and she laughed and showed me it's arms, legs, heart, cord, placenta and the hemispheres of the brain. It look like an actual baby now!
She also dated me at 11+5 which puts me back to 28th October I think but I'm staying here if that's ok?
Lol at the Indie Midwife stuff, I always think of the Madchester music scene when I hear indie. I was being lazy, I should have just said independent midwife. She can't make it tonight now but she's coming next week which is a blessing really because it means I don't have to tidy or break out the posh biscuits just yet.
TwoJack a friend of mine said the same, she had no symptoms at all and dreaded her first scan but all was fine. She said she really thought there would be nothing there. Her baby is 2 months old now.
Caz I think you're doing a wonderful thing and please don't censor yourself for worry of scaring people. Loss like yours is a sad fact of life and I'd bet my last pound that you're helping and supporting more women and families than you're scaring.
H007 let your dh draw up a short list and you just do the final cull. You can find something and move in 6 months. You'll be fine

Yay to a new thread! was looking for it last night on my phone but couldn't find it, was too tired though, had a girlie night in and has some friends over to watch a film, everyone drinking wine, and me pretending to join in with drinking pink fizzy juice 
will have to find an 'excuse' for tonight as we're going out again with friends to a Body Shop Home Party and I won't be driving. Might just say I'm still a bit tired.
I received an ante natal clinic appointment today for the 18th of July with an Obstetrics Nurse All Grades... very strange as the MW didn't mention anything about that. Does this mean they have change my care plan from MW-led to something else? Could be because of the spotting and my visit to the EPU, will have to ask the MW about it.
One more week till my 12 week scan! :)
dirge glad your scan went well! I'm following both October and November bus, as I thought my due date would be in October but dating scan put me at EDD 3rd November... So could be either way, depending on the baby showing up early or on due date or late...
Hope not too early as DD's birthday is 31st October and would like it to be a few days difference.

Caz. I think you are inspirational and feeling scared from you story hadn't even occurred to me.
Dirge. Glad you had a good scan today. sounds lovely.
I had a lovely day today. Met up with my friend who is 23 weeks pregnant and one of her friends who is 8weeks pregnant so had a nice morning chatting about babies and grandparents and stuff.
Hope everyone else has had a good thursday.

found you all, i did think it was unlikely to have only had 2 comments since yesterday.
dirge yay for a great scan.
i'm feeling really grrr, at the moment, just phoned hosp can't get scan till 5/5, dh refuses to pay for a private. i'm working myself up to a mess all cause of the bleed last week, didn't really want to go back to the gp to ask for epu but may have to.
since writing above i have contacted epu, spoke to the same woman i spoke to after my mmc, she's booked me in but i need to get the gp to fax them. my asshole husband has turned his phone off, sent me a text saying do what i want, he no longer cares and he gives up. Wonderfully supportive of him. really really wish i could have a bottle glass of wine. glad i bought lots of fatty stuff today.
