    Hopefully not all at the same time, Kyra!!! I'd be worried about spilling the curry if so ha ha ha

    I'm watching videos on babycenter.com. I really ought not do this without DH being in the house as I scare myself!! But I'd rather be prepared... what do you all have for the weekend? I'm starting with a curry (mmmmmm) and a hen do tomorrow, and the cinema on Sunday (you'll note not much study listed here, bad girl!)

    (other than those of you who might be in labour, I guess I can work out what you're doing this weekend.....)

    Hi Ladies,

    I don't post in here very often at all but am having a bad day and knew you'd all understand. to everyone - it's so good to see some LTTTC girls graduating into this thread, and I feel so privileged to have shared much of my journey with you all. Sending lots of labourvibes to LilMiss!

    So... a bit of a rant. One of my friends started TTC about four months ago, and I discovered today that she's 12 weeks pregnant. Quite aside from being very happy for her (truly!), and even looking forward to sharing the experience with her, I'm also really angry with the world and feeling very sad about it. Why is she so lucky? Why did the dice fall her way so easily? Seriously, Why can't it be as hard for her as it was for us? I have been very emotional and upset all afternoon and haven't yet returned her call - I will, and I will be gracious and happy for her (because I am), but I am also hurting a lot as well. That's not her fault and I won't make her suffer for it, but I expect that she'll be understanding of why I am a bit reserved around her. I know this is my baggage, and not hers. I'm also quite shocked to discover that my emotions are so strong despite me now being 32 weeks pregnant myself - but I guess that's what infertility will do to you.

    Okay, rant over. I do often lurk in here and enjoy seeing you all getting along with your pregnancies. I'm just very bad at keeping up with everyone and keeping up with myself half the time!

    Thanks for the ear ladies,
    Seph

    I'll be honest, the first time I read this, I thought you were being a little bit unreasonable. But then I read it again, and realised you said 4 months and not 4 years which is what my brain read (assumed) as who on earth gets pregnant within in a month... I hope getting it out your system helped.. I don't think the anger of LTTTC ever leaves you. Or the total lack of fairness, however you measure equity.

    56 days to go! That's pretty exciting though... are you all packed up and ready to go? It's lovely to hear from you

    Well... I'm still here... All activity has ceased and I think that I was having Pre-labour pains... So frustrating.. Add to that.. I met a lady at the shops who told me that she had pre-labour pains for 5 days and they would come down to 3 mins apart but would stop at night.. Thanks for that.. makes me feel so much more optomistic (Note sarcasm).. So labour alarm is reset and I'm back to waiting...

    Thanks for all your labour vibes though and sorry for the false alarm..

    Hi Girls.I have finally finished moving and my internet has just come back on..finally!!

    I have gone back a few pages and read what you have all been upto.
    Lilmiss~ wow,what excitement,labour pains now nothing? Must be frustrating! Your bub will be here in no time.Try and enjoy the last few quiet moments while you can.It must be hard though not to think of anything else.

    Hang on.... had to yell at my cat to get off the damn screen door...stupid moron!!

    Has anyone heard from .... forgot name?... Colts mummy? Still wishing to hear if he is doing well now after the whole RH thing?

    Persephone~ I dont mean to sound harsh but you shouldnt be feeling that way,especially as you have your baby on the way.If you still hadnt conceived,i could definatly see your point but you have been lucky to have been blessed,even if it did take some time.I believe that what you put out,comes back.I have,for the past year or so,only been happy for those who have conceived knowing that,if i show happiness toward others and not bitterness,then,i will be be returned to the good fortune of my own conception,which i have,luckily.I wouldnt wish infertility on my worst enemy.I really wouldnt want any woman to have to go through what i have been through.I doubt you really would have wanted to see your friend go through that heartache,of 4 yrs trying.Sharing the experience with her and watching your children grow up together as friends,im sure will make you both very close.

    Hello to everyone else.Belly rubs to all and kisses to the bubs who are already here!!xx
