Hi Everyone

Far out, there are so many newbies in here, I'm so sorry I can't welcome you all personally
Welcome to all of the lovely newbies

Rols (still not used to your new name yet... soon!!!) - So sorry to hear your results xxx
Hoping that the new year brings new energy and a completely different result for next cycle - Sending lots of positive thoughts your way for next time

TL - I'm so sorry, hun :hugs:
Next time will be the one - Take the time over Christmas to be naughty and have some wine & choccy and all things bad for you before you start again in the new year xxx

Peta - Sweetie, so sorry also xxx

BW - I'm not sure what to offer you sweetie in regards to the family probs
This happened to me last year - we got yet another BFN from our 4th cycle in November and then we backed up to go and spend Christmas with DH's family - His sister had her 4 month old son there, and then announced to everyone over lunch that she was expecting baby #2... and was almost 10weeks - so basically fell pg as soon as she came home from hospital after giving birth
People don't think about what they say, but her words were along the lines of "OMG how easy was that, not even thinking about it - Pregnancy just happens in this family"...hhhmmm, Really???!!! My reply was a grumbled mess, but it made for an uncomfortable day for me and lots of over the top fake smiles to hold myself back from tears... I was still struggling to come to terms with the result of our neg IVF cycle, let alone a newish baby and his mum pg again so soon..... All this from a girl who was a huge party girl, and was never going to have kids - and did so after much convincing from her DH.... She love sthem to death, though, and I'm happy for her - Such is life, but it sucks sometimes

It was hard, and the only reason I'm breathing easy this year about Christmas (another year on and we still are in no different position to last year, but both SIL's have new babies since last Christmas - both their 2nd ones), is because neither of them are having anymore children, and my brother is gay, so I know he and his partner aren't announcing anything anytime soon
My only advice is that I wouldn't wish upon you what happened to me last year - Just wasn't ready to cope so soon after a negative cycle - and your cycle is going to be closer than mine was... If its not good news for you guys, (and I'm hoping, of course, that its GREAT news!!!) you will still be coming to terms with that - If you're expecting news from your sister, then its just too much to take, hun - Don't do it to yourself.
Make up anything that gets you out of it - Protect yourself, I can talk from experience, it was just way too hard (and I wasn't expecting it - you are)

Missy - Whats happening with your embies??? Hope you still have great numbers and they're nice and strong

Dusty - How are things hun?? Hope that cyst is staying out of the way xxx

To everyone else I've missed, a big hello and sorry

As for me - nothing to update, to be honest TTC this month has been a non event, DH has been away a little with work over the period I needed him to be here so a pg out of this cycle will be a real real miracle!!
Will be back on track for next month, though

Hope everyone is wonderful!

And Nic - Yay again!!!!
