    Sunbeam- I hope everything went ok (IYKWIM) yesterday, rest up and take it easy hunny xxx

    Mindhugs- hi nice to meet you, sorry you are in this situation of limbo land, hope it works out. I don't think there is any way to find out really except time, when are you getting another scan? xx

    Alice- you are close to starting bcp, no looking back then! How is Mr Alice going ? Hope he is feeling less grumpy today, I understand how hard it is to quit, usually takes a few false starts as well, he will eventually realise how much better he feels physically!

    Porsche-hopefully you will have about 6 as well in the other ovary so thats great! You will be well and truly UTD hopefully when you move in Jan, we have moved 3 times in the last 2 1/2 yrs but THATS IT! Never again, we own this house now, although I still have nightmares about having to move again.

    Craftmummy- hope you survive a few days without internet or BB!! More time to BD!

    Ferals-great news about the beta level!

    Mildez- hi what did you decide to do?

    Hey murrycod- great to hear from you hope all is going beautifully in your world xx

    Nothing to report here, except failing in my health kick, my work is a constant source of cakes/chocolates/lollies and last week I had willpower but i lost it over the weekend and was tucking in to everything, so annoyed with myself. Also beng a bit slack on the exercise front and got a pep talk from my acupuncture lady, but its so cold herre I can barely leave the house. I am definately going to the gym today though.

    Hi ladies

    Sunbeam hope your getting over your D&C its so hard isn't it I cried and cried and cried until I couldn't cry anymore or see as my eyes were so swollen, be brave I know its hard we are all here for you when you feel ready to talk !

    Mindhugs so sorry you are in the same boat as sunbeam it sucks when you can get pregnant and then mc makes you wonder why the lord bothers letting you get a BFP when its just not going to work out ! But people do go on to have babies after mc I am proof of that I have had 5mc's in all but not managed to get a BFP since my last one in sept last year as yet but I am 45 now so I have to be a bit more patient !
    Hopefully you will be sorted soon are you going to wait it out or opt for a D&C if it doesn't happen soon ? Keep well and try to look to the future !

    Mildez how you doing ! hope your DH is smiling and giving you lots of support your time is nearly here how exciting !

    Alice not long now till you go on the pill ( sounds kind of strange saying that in a TTC thread ) oh well I know its for the best FX your journey is short this time round !

    Saffy Hi so glad your also having trouble staying on the good healthy track your not alone on that one ! I am the worlds worst with 7 kids at home and a birthday nearly every month well its impossible to leave the cake and lollies isn't it ! We will be moving for the 6th time in 4.5 yrs and one of those times was overseas to Australia from the UK 18mnths ago supose I should be used to it but I am not at least this time it will be permanent as its our own home at long last, this renting business is so hard it never feels like home !

    Ferrals how are the twinnies ! no wonder your more horney than usual your lucky DH !!!! ( bet hes kind of worn out now ) give the guy a rest !!!

    Porsche 6 is a good number you only need 1 good grade A like ferrals !!! she is an inspiration to us all !

    afm well just trying not to think too much about TTC but day 13 so the big O anyday now so busy busy in the bedroom ( shame DH is warn out he is tired from the weekend paving the cross-over on the drive at the new house ) men you can never please them !!!

    T-Hopes - Ahh that totaly sucks. At least your not waiting and wondering if, when and why? lol Good luck at the info night. I never went to one but I would have liked to. Ah well bit late now hehe.

    Mindhugs - What a terrible situation to be in. How terrified and upset you must be. My heart goes out to you and your DH. Have they offered a D&C?

    Hi ladies,

    Thank you all for you loving words, support and prayers, it means so much to know you are all here for me.

    The d & c was fair bit longer than last time so I'm struggling a bit from the anesthetic, fairly sore too so I didn't get much sleep and had to sleep propped up. My lovely housemate was there for me the whole day and kept my spirits up and let me cry when I needed to, she is such a lovely friend. My mum has also flown down to look after me which is nice though she does not handle my tears so well.
    I hope to see FS early next week. He'd already planned to send bub for genetic tests before I even brought it up. Donor daddy and I have spoken and depending on answers from FS I think we will try IVF just till the end of the year. We are already over our threshold so we will only be out of pocket about $1000 each time. I feel it may give us answers as to why our bubs are failing and even if it does not result in a forever baby I will at least be able to finish this journey feeling we gave it every possible shot and a fresh start for the New Year.

    Hugs to all of you until I'm up to more.

    Sunbeam - glad your Mum is with you and your housemate is looking after you too - wish I could bring you some soup. sorry the D&C was a bit more tough this time - rest up and take good care of your lovely self. I'm glad to hear you might be able to try again and hopefully you'll get some more answers through IVF with different types of testing. Thinking of you.

    Crafty, you must be looking forward to getting your keys after all this time. Will be great to settle into your new home finally - do you have a craft room by any chance? Be nice to have a space where you can spread out with all your fabric and wool. I can't sew really and only do a bit of crochet but love seeing other people's creative spaces. I hope you have the house-warming present you are praying for very soon! We're all hoping for that for you too.

    Saffy, I'm not doing well on the exercise front at all either - like you, it's just so damn cold up here (it snowed on Monday!) that I can't bring myself to going outside. My TCM practitioner said to rug up and go - she really wants me to get on with it as apparently it can help raise progesterone levels and mine are not quite there yet though it's exciting to see them inching upwards. I'm thinking about the gym too but never been to one so a bit scared by all those fit people!

    Porsche, good luck with growing your extra follies - sounds like things are going well now. Are you having a scan tomorrow or is it Monday?

    Mindhugs, I'm so sorry for your losses, it must be absolutely devastating to go through that so many times. I understand your fear about not wanting to leave the house in case the mc starts - I was exactly the same so I waited at home for ten days then went in for a D&C. I think I would have gone on for quite some time otherwise. I hope you don't have to wait too much longer. Big hugs to you and you are very welcome here, I'm glad you've joined us.

    T-hopes, be interested to know how the info night goes - we never went to one either. Good that your doc will be speaking as at least it will give you some idea of what he is like. I hope he's excellent. Any more shopping fun? Hope AF leaves you soon.

    MatthewsMum - we haven't heard from you in a while, are you OK? Is your new hormone support cycle starting soon?

    Ferrals, LOL at Crafty telling you to give your DH a break! Don't wear yourself out now Can't wait to hear how many you've got in there and if it is only one then at least you know you've got a really strong little one growing.

    Mildez, how are you? Hi to everyone I have missed.

    AFM well it's things are up and down most days, feeling scared and not wanting to let myself get too hopeful and that sinking feeling of resignation that I will never have a family of my own. Just because I've done this diet and stuck to it doesn't mean it will work though I know it is helping as I have more energy than before. Just got to get myself out exercising but it's so damn cold, like Saffy, I just can't bring myself to do it. DH is a little better - TCM prac. told me to make sure he eats lots of protein and complex carbs more often during the day to stop the mood swings which are blood sugar related so going to make him some yummy lunches and hope that helps.
