    So sorry for you MinnieMouse.

    So sad to see you here Saffy. I don't know what to say because I certainly don't want to be the type that says "Don't give up hope" or "Think positive" when there is nothing to be done, that's right up there with "Just relax" and "it was / wasn't meant to be". But I have this instinct to be positive because at this stage we can't know anything for certain, time can change things and specialists can be proven wrong.

    Sunbeam I was having some similar thoughts and I had a few conversations about feelings and thinking and how they can affect getting pregnant or staying pregnant. My sister and I came up with this: It doesn't matter what I think or feel; flip it around, no matter how much a pregnant teenager thinks about and wishes for an unwanted pregnancy to disappear, it ain't going any where. No matter how much a pregnant woman who doesn't want to be pregnant hopes and wishes to not be, unless something physical happens the pregnancy won't magically stop. And like wise however I feel and think about hoping to fall pregnant, unless everything works out physically there's not much that I can do. That helped me feel better because I like facts and science and realising that I was doing what I call "magical thinking" made me stop blaming myself for these "thoughts" but everyone is different, lots of people find comfort in lots of different types of thinking.
