Hi Kathryn<br><br>Well, Im 10 and a half weeks pregnant with one baby. Feeling in shock still. We were incredibly lucky and had a bit of a miracle. We did our first cycle of ICSI, and I had a bio-chemical pregnancy, so basically the embryo implanted but then stopped progressing, so I had a very heavy bleed, and that was that. We'd been trying to conceive for 5 years and were heartbroken, although were very comforted by the fact that we nearly got there as to us it felt like at least something could be done (and im sure that for you, God forbid it is sad news when you're scanned), you'll feel similar. Anyway, two weeks later we went away, and I drank loads, smoked ridiculous amounts, had a chest infection and was knocking Nurofen back like they were smarties. and yep, you guessed, when we came back, i still felt rough so my GP told me to do a test and it was a positive. As someone who used to get really p'd off by people saying "relax and it'll happen", I now wonder if for a few lucky ones, its actually true. Im anxious about the 12 week scan but thinking that Ill deal with things if I need to. Don't think i'll truly relax though, until little Herbie is safe with us.<br><br>Just remember, it aint over 'til the fat lady sings, and Im not singing! (and nor can I sing!!!!)<br><br>Are you feeling any of the typical symptoms like sore boobs or anyting, or tired?<br><br>Loads of love to you and your DH<br><br>Love<br><br>Rachel<br>x
wow rachel, what a little miracle! I think I remember your post on the other side now!<br>like youve said, I do get comfort from the fact somtehting did/has happened...we were pg for a moment! and as prepared as I think I am for my scan next week, Im sure I will feel dreadful.<br>have got sore boobs but not like on the 2ww more achey. And Im sleeping every afternoon, but putting that down to stress and hot weather.<br><br>I love the fact your little baby is called herbie! Since dh and I met weve always referred to our little baby as little jimmy, even our family call him little jimmy!<br><br>Thanks for taking the time to reply to me rachel, and Ill be watching out for little herbies progress.<br>enjoy the next 7 1/2 months !<br><br>all the best and lots of love<br>kathryn<br>x
