Well little pea. There you were; flickering away... exactly 7 weeks today and Mr Emu couldn’t stop those tears of joy just as much as I couldn’t when the consultant breathed a sigh of relief and said: “well, there’s a baby...”
I’ve got to really look after you though. Because I’m at risk of miscarriage. So now I’ve got to be off work this week... I will go out of my mind! But my consultant said something very important... “this part in your life is such a small part. How you get through it and accept you must rest will have impact on the rest of your life”
So I’m laid in bed. Thank you to you wonderful ladies for being with me morning, noon and night. I don’t feel out of the woods yet. But I do feel that their is one hell of a fighter growing inside me.
xx

Phew! Thank you for sharing. I have been thinking about you all day. Enjoy the cake and the rest. Thank goodness another hurdle jumped xxx
Yay for cake. I know It is such a boring thing to do but truly it is such a small period of time compared to a lifetime with your little pea. Congratulations!! Keep fighting little pea.xx
Aww. Congratulations Mrs Emu, I have been on the lookout for your post. Thank God, your little one is doing well. I wish you the very best and o pray you get to hold and care for your baby at the end of this journey.
P.S. enjoy the break as much as you can. It doesn't come that often even though the reason for it is scary.
Mother effing nice one! I'm SO happy for you for Mr Emu MAKE SURE YOU LISTEN TO WHAT THE CONSULTANT SAID AND GET SOME REST (that was my teacher voice by the way so you have to do it now) xxx
Yey!!!!!!!!!!! Believe it now woman & enjoy the feeling. Happiness is anti inflammatory, allow the body to work with you and do it’s job! Woooo I’m so happy for you. Cake all round. 🍰 🍀
Whoop whoop.....cake looks amazing!😍🤗😁🤞🍰 So chuffed for you both!! Well done, the pea sprouted perfectly indeed!! Understand it's still early days but brilliant news! I've been on and off this site for hours....and I'm 5 behind home!😂😂😂 Ooooh gin for me!🍸xxxx
Really thinking of you i hope all goes well until the very end, i can imagine you must still be worrying every second that goes by! Congratulations this is amazing news xxx
Hi Mr & Mrs Emu. I didn't dare wish for cake, but I have a lovely slice of Victoria sponge looking at me, so I'm going to demolish it now!! That's all I have to say, except let's all eat cake!! Diane xxxxxxxxxx
Hi. It sometimes happens following a fall or blow to the abdomen. The placenta comes away a little and causes a bleed. With rest, many of them “stick back down again”, but can carry on bleeding a bit. It can happen spontaneously too. Why do you ask? Diane xx
That’s what my consultant said I had... I’m off work for the rest of the week. I’ve been bleeding and had cramps and he could see where the bleed was happening from on my scan x
Don't worry about it - my hormones seem to have kicked up a gear in the last 48hrs!!!! It was happy tears for you!! Even writing this has got me tearing up again!!! 😂😂😂 Hopefully you get to have cake for another 33 weeks!! x
Congratulations been thinking about u all morning xx and defo rest I’m sure you will not be bored especially with all us to drive u mad (especially me as the hormones are really bad #lets blame it on the hormones xxx
Ohh wow.... this reay brought a tear to my eye.... i prayer that this is finally your time.... and i wish you and mr emu a happy and healthy pregnancy... i dont know your religious beliefs but i believe someone is watching yours struggle and you will be rewarded with your bundle of joy.....
Congratulations mrs emu.... now rest up and take care xxx
Here’s to super little pea! Hang on tight in your little pod while mummy sits with her feet up and eats copious amount of cake. So pleased you’re over another hurdle, brilliant news 😘😘 🍰
I’m not even gonna repeat what I said when I saw this cake as it wasn’t very ladylike but the last word was brilliant. Been looking for this all day. So happy for you both. Follow Drs orders and let’s just get over these first few weeks and take ya time. OMG so happy xxxx
Yay! So pleased for you. Like the other ladies I’ve been wondering all morning about your result. I think you have a few hundred ladies behind your little fighter hoping for the best!
Do you know what is specifically making you at risk or miscarriage compared to a normal pregnancy now you’ve got this far?
Either way, glad to hear your resting up and taking it easy x
Completely overwhelmed for the love I've got on here! I'm a bit confused by the threatened miscarriage. I'm going to post a picture later of my scan...It's where the bleed is coming from - the consultant could see it and lifting and not resting will make it worse.
Yesssss! iv been waiting to see your update! So immensely happy for you both and proud of you both for persevering. I think little pea gets their fighting spirit from you both already. Absolutely brilliant news, lots of rest Mrs Emu! Now I'm off to buy cake as my mouth is watering looking at that scrummy cake yum. Xxx ❤😍😘
Brilliant news!! 👏👏so glad all is going well. It maybe the bleeding was down to the second one that didn't implant fully as this has happened with a few people I know who have transferred 2. Go little pea! Definitely make sure you rest and all being well that little pea will grow and grow 😊xx
😂😂that made me smile! I always see my hubby look heaven would bound as he's waking out of the room to one of my many requests when going through the 2ww! Xx
That looks like a great cake and I’m so pleased that no gin is needed today. Enjoy being a lady of leisure for a week, you deserve it and I’m sure that you don’t get to do it very often 😊 x
Also pleased to hear you’re doing as you’re told and taking it easy. I know it’s. It in your nature but listen to the consultant and use the opportunity to catch up on those books you’ve been meaning to read and box sets you’ve always fancied watching.
Awe huni you and Mr Emu truly deserve this. So pleased for you both. Well done pea you must know you have the most amazing mummy and daddy. Glad you have got their fight xx
Just catching up, I am so pleased with your news (I know how scary this bit is) and it’s all one day at a time, but you have a fighting little sticky one in there. Glad your off work and relaxing (even though it’s near impossible) if you have any questions or just want to chat, share your fears etc I am always about. Take care xxxxxx
Not at all. I didn’t see a comment till much after I deleted it ; I felt really bad once I got an email notifying me you commented. I was surprised anyone would reply! I felt guilty because it wasn’t fertility related so I deleted.It feels like it’s one after another. Hey ho I’ll get it sorted I am a tough cookie. I’ll have all my health issues ironed out once and for all and be in the best place to try again 👍 yes I am silly! 🤪xoxo
Excellent! Massive congratulations! I am absolutely thrilled to hear that little pea is nice and snug. You now rest and grow that little one big and strong. Hugs Xx
Yaaay! So one of your embies is sticky mud cake! Woohoo! Now relax darling and let Mr emu be your butler! 😉 so will you be getting a follow up scan soon to check that bleed is fixed itself? So pleased for you 😘😘😘😍😍
I saw your post title and squealed with delight (bear in mind it’s almost 2am here)
Hubbys head jerked up in shock- I said “emu’s having a baaaabbbyy!!!!”
He rolled his eyes and flopped his head back- 😅 he’s becoming accustomed to my random outbursts when viewing this forum. He thinks I’m crazy but hey ho.
Haha don’t take that as him not caring btw- he actually smiled after to himself. (I’ve told him about your story briefly previously) it’s comforting to us all too to know there can be light at the end of the tunnel. Congrats!!!!!!! So happy for you both and def rest up!
I’m kicking myself for still not resting much in 2ww. Next time round I am going to be on bedrest!!!
Thats very interesting about threatened miscarriage- I wonder if that’s also why I was bleeding. Uff so much to think about.
For now il join u for a slice of (sugar free) cake 😁👏🏻
Omg.... So happy for you... I still look in from time to time and saw this and was so excited for you both, but feel your wariness which only to be expected... So glad you resting up... I took it easy between 7-9 weeks... Be worth it.. Enjoy your cake 🎂 and will keep looking in and sending positive and calming vibes your way.. Lots of love Jackie x
I’m soo pleased to see the “adventures of the emus” has many more chapters to be written! Long may it continue with “little pea” snuggling in!! 💕 lets all eat 🍰 !! xx

What a mix up! 
Anyone else self medicating?
Has anyone taken Prednisone and intralipid for ERA test or only for real transfer?
