well there's really no hope of me getting a proper catch up post written (aside from anything else it would make moby dick look like a short story!) I admit defeat!! But I shall do a semi catch up! I've been checking in daily, but have been too zonked out to post / update properly! Fuzzy has taken up residence where my stomach should be and consequently i've been up throughout the night retching/suffering with heartburn again, despite the super strong gaviscon! I was so bone weary last night that I cracked and slept sitting up last night - and feel about a million times better for finally having some rest! I really miss lying down flat in bed!!
Anyways!
Bun CONGRATULATIONS!!!! 
That's quite a weight!! I love Elizabeth Rose - what a beautiful, classic name - just gorgeous! Fantastic news about the scan/no operation! You must be thrilled!! She's absolutely gorgeous (as is your DS btw - what a cutie!!) Do let me know when you're up for visitors - would love to come and meet Lilly!
Ghost Congratulations on going home - that's wonderful! And happy belated birthday - sorry I missed it! It must be so lovely to be home with Juliet! Hope you are managing to get some sleep! :)
Davina Belated birthday wishes for your DS too! His ride on train set sounds amazing!!
Babybrain Woo!! Welcome back!!! I have everything crossed for you!! October is a fantastic month to be born (can you guess when my birthday is? 
) With regards to going to the GP - there's certainly no harm in going now. I don't know what the system is where you live, but I believe that some areas offer early scans to people who have had prior losses - for reassurance? No idea if that's an option (or something you'd want) but it might be worth asking about? The heartbeat can typically first be seen between about 6 and 9 weeks I think, so at 4+2 you've a little way to go, but it usually takes some time to get things organised and scans booked etc anyway.
toddle There you are!!! we've missed you! Welcome back - how's everything going?
carlita :( about the SPD - that really sucks. Hope the newborn snuggles helped to take your mind off it! :) Any update on your house moving plans? Hurrah for starting your maternity leave - really not long to go now!!
elliebug love the ear of corn! That's so cute!
Fuzzy goes nuts when DP gets home in the evening - loads of kicking and movement! He definitely knows his dad's voice!! He goes respectfully quiet when we watch west wing, but kicks all the way through mad men! I love the way he responds to us, can't wait to meet him! Am so impatient!! We had another scan on Monday - all looking good - abdominal circumference is up just above the 50th centile, which is great. You can really see the difference in him from scan to scan; he's so much chunkier looking with every fortnight that goes by! He's starting to look properly squished in there too (really triggers my claustrophobia - just have to remind myself that he's happy in there and not feeling trapped!!) He's been head down for a while, but he sometimes comes out of that position and turns sideways, which is unbelievably uncomfortable! He also likes to stick his bum out really hard to the right hand side of my belly button - really pushes it out!!! Is amazing how much you can feel him from the outside now - although sometimes I really can't work out what position he's in - I am starting to suspect he's actually an octopus in disguise - he seems to be everywhere at once sometimes!!
Had a super frustrating conversation with my obst about induction - am really anti being induced at 40 weeks for lots of reasons and she is really determined about it. Her reasoning is that there is no information available on the risks of going beyond 40 weeks with my health problems, as they always induce, so I should be induced. But I feel that the risks of induction (especially the massively increased risks of intervention or c-section) outweigh the completely unknown potential risk of not inducing; I want to be really closely monitored and go maybe a week overdue (which would actually only make me due by my dates anyway, as they moved me by a week at the 12 week scan). Think I'm going to have a battle on my hands come 40 weeks. :( DP is in complete agreement with me though, so we are united in what we want and they can't force us to induce so hopefully they will agree to increased monitoring and a more wait and see approach! In the meantime, we are researching what exactly DPs private health care will cover (they don't cover routine maternity care, but as i'm high risk they may cover some/all of my care - is decided on a case by case basis apparently) so that we hopefully have another option if things get really strained with the obst!
I also got sad news this week, my lovely rheumatologist is losing her battle to keep her general rheumatology patients - I am being transferred to the head of rheumatology for care from now on. She's still fighting it, but it doesn't look like she's going to win. Am gutted. Is such awful timing. She's the only person in the department with experience of pregnancy/my meds/my health problems - the rheumy head has experience managing lupus and pregnancy, so has some relevant knowledge, but it's really no comparison...
All in all it's not been a great week to be honest! But I got some sleep last night, the sun is shining, DP is working at home today, plus it's nearly the weekend - so i'm feeling pretty good! Roll on the weekend!!
(hmmm, that was rather epic in length, so much for a short catch up!!!)
