Hi everyone,<br><br>Thanks so much for your kind wishes. My 1st scan has been booked for 31 July at 9:30 - I just can't wait for it to get here (this IF thing doesn't half make you wish your life away :-) - has anyone any tips on how to get through the day at work and actually do some work! Can't concentrate on anything to save my life.<br><br>I think I overdid it a bit on Saturday and felt really rough on Sunday, but spent lots of time with my feet up and a few good dozes so feel OK now. I've had some twinges on and off from my ectopic site, but nothing like I had last time (or when I m/c'd) so not letting them get me worried.<br><br>Well, not feeling like I can join the new roll call quite yet, but will try to keep upto date with you.<br><br>Terri - just wanted to say how lovely you are saying you had goose-bumps - I know what you mean though, I've been there with others myself.<br><br>Lots of love to everyone<br><br><br><br>Fiona xxx

Hi Fiona<br>No one deserves this more than you, I am keeping everything crossed and really do have a positive feeling for you this time. <br>Your number's-up girlie, prepare to join the bump club !!!<br><br>Don't forget to TAKE IT EASY, sit on arse and be waited-on, as for work, can't you have a word and do a 3 day week for a while...that's what I did. With my history and a letter from my consultant they didn't dare say no. At least then it makes the 3 days you do go in go quicker as you'll be busier.<br>Love and hugs<br>Terri<br>xx<br>
