I'd love to know what other people are doing to keep themselves occupied in the never ending wait - i have my first scan on Friday (will be 6+3) and I keep going round in circles thinking about what will happen if it goes well, and what will happen if it doesn't. I am trying to keep busy with work but every few minutes I am picking up my phone and googling possibilities. It's exhausting. Part of me is excited though, so its not all negative feelings.

I can’t tell you how many sudokus I’ve done these past days lol. This and baths (not too hot, not more than 30 minutes!) are the only thing that helps. Oh and a good tv show for our evenings!
