    I rang them to see if I could get a later one, the latest they had was 4.30. Guess I'll be on my own as have no family near by either.
    I'm just scared I'll get there & theres something wrong & it's 1/2hr away on the motorway I wouldn't be able to drive home!
    Got to stop being so pesimistic. I just think the spotting a few weeks ago is haunting me :(



    chances are everything will be fine and you will just be looking at your baby on the screen - hubby will be missing out if he can;t get out of work!! does your hospital have saturday appointment? i have heard some that do. do private places do saturdays?

    i agree with jcr - when everything went wrong for me i was in the hospital for hours - there will be plenty of time to get someone to come and pick you up if the worst happens. i would be amazed if the hospital let you drive home as i was in a right state.

    When things went wrong for me they put me back in the waiting room and gave me an appointment for erpc and kicked me out... I was on my own every time.. apart from last time they sent me home without an appointment and I bled constantly for 3 months until I insisted on an erpc.

    Ahhh, there is our little ray of sunshine :D

    I feel very relaxed about having the scan. As I said on a previous post, it is very liberating having the 'what will be will be' attitude.

    I had a quick look on the TTC conceive thread before - they need to hand out a dictionary so everyone else can understand the terminology they use!

    Welcome leany and marie (hope I didn't miss anyone)

    Glad (well, maybe relieved) to hear that others are weary by the end of the day as well. I'm usually very very much a night owl. Could stay up til 1 or 1:30 if hubby weren't in the picture :p and still get up and 7-8 for work, etc. Now, I can't stop yawning!

    hulagirl..I'm thinking about waiting til second trimester for telling the families, but it's going to be hard I think. Definitely I don't want the girls to know until then, just in case.

    re: nuchal fold scan...I think for us, we may skip this one. We wouldn't choose to terminate a Downs pregnancy, so for us it would only add to worry, I think. Then again, 7 weeks from now, or whenever the time comes, I may change my mind. :D
