    Blooming raging, just been on a trek to mothercare for bras and they don't do them in a 32! It's not like it's an unusual size so I don't get it. Woman who measured me didn't know so I was waiting for 30mins while she tried to work out why they didn't have any in stock. Grrrr, will need to head to m&s at the weekend.

    I don't want to take them off as that means I'm top of the list and next to move on! I will actually be 13 weeks this Thursday when I go for my scan so have been staying on here until then and I know everything is fine. Here goes though....

    The list
    MrsC....tobe (now just MrsC) 17-10-14 12wk scan 10/04
    Monty-doggy (27-10-14)
    SewIt (03-11-14) 8 week scan 24/03 - 12 week scan ??
    Alioops78 (04-11-14) 12 week scan 22/04
    Ttc39 (13-11-14)
    Frankieloo (23-11-14)
    Angeltreats (29-11-14)
    Alizee (1-12-14)
    Tinkwings (1-12-14) scan 14/4/14
    Wendz86 (2-12-14)
    Runmichellerun (2-12-14)
    star 02 (8-12-14) early scan 18-04-14

    I had a feeling that you were leaving them on so you wouldn't be first lol. Can't believe I'm 4th and only 2 weeks away from the scan, starting to get a little bit nervous now.

    Thanks SewIt for this, will save me wasting a 100 mile round trip to the nearest Mothercare then, although I think I'll maybe need to go up to the 34 now. Not sure where I'll get locally, maybe have to go 120 mile round trip in the opposite direction to Bravissimo, heard they were great for fitting maternity bras and I use them normally.

    Yip it's come round so fast. I've know I was pregnant for 8 weeks now (to the day) and that part has flown in. Only 27 weeks and 2 days to go if dates stay the same and the wee mite arrives on time!

    I am losing the plot, please someone talk some sense into me. I woke up at 4am starving, stomach growling etc. Tried to ignore it but couldn't so I've got up and had a bowl of cereal... And just for good measure, peed on to OPKs from my pre-MFI diagnosis stash. Just because I used to read that they would come up positive if you're actually upduffed, and I had already peed on my entire HPT stash.

    Turns out it's true.

    I need to stop this testing nonsense. Even if I had a mmc the tests would still be coming up positive for a while so I don't know what I'm trying to achieve.

    6+6 today. Can't wait till tomorrow, 7 sounds so much closer to the magic 12.

    Morning honey xx big hugs you sound like me and the reality is I know that with an mmc you still have a + test my first mc was a mmc that still was + when our bean had passed away 3 weeks before our private scan :(.

    If i can say anything that has taken me a very long time to come to terms with is that the reality is there is nothing you can do :( my experience is , if you are going to have a baby Mother Nature will be on your side and sadly she also works the other way too.

    My philosophy is one day at a time xxx

    Oh angeltreats *hugs* I don't know what you're going through having never gone through a mc or mmc so I echo what tinkwings said.

    As for bra's I've just bought 3 smoothing bras from sainsbugs to get me through and they are so comfy.

    Have a great day ladies xxx

    Thanks guys. It's not that I think I'm having a mc or anything, it's just that having no real symptoms to speak of other than a bit of cramping, tiredness and weird vinegar cravings yesterday I might as well not be pregnant, I really do feel like I'm making the whole thing up, and especially after being told it wasn't going to happen without IVF. I think if we'd actually had IVF I could probably believe it better, if you see what I mean.

    I wonder if it's worth paying for a private early scan just to set my mind at rest that there's actually something in there. I no it would be no guarantee that it would still be in there at 12 weeks but at least I'd know I wasn't imagining it.

    I have no symptoms nothing at all not one single thing .

    Have you seen a mw or gp yet ? It may be worth a private scan for your own sanity . I know I would be doing that if we were not under the fertility clinic and are due a scan on Monday .

    I am meeting my mw today and I am very nervous about it I am hoping that dh will have finished his operating in time to come with me.

    I feel like I am going to end up in the funny farm x

    I've had a midwife appointment but only a short one, have my booking appointment next Thursday when I will be 8w exactly. I haven't seen the GP, midwife said there was no need. She isn't concerned and really there's no reason why she should be as I haven't had a previous mc (this is my first ever pregnancy), she wasn't bothered that we were about to be referred for IVF due to MFI but I suppose if I managed to get pregnant despite lack of sperm and there are no issues with me then there's no reason to worry. It's just that I am mental :)

    Looks like an early scan will cost £99, eek! But I think I am going to continue to torture myself otherwise.

    ETA: I've booked a scan for this Saturday morning, I'll be 7+2.
