Hello Rachel,

Thank you for your reply. You sound really positive and that is so nice to hear. I have a beautiful supportive partner who believes with 100% of his heart and soul that we will soon hold our perfectly healthy baby in our arms. Each day I am thankful for his unlimited love and supported and I know I am so lucky to have that in my life. I also have a wonderfully supportive family, who I know would do anything for me.

I am actually a nurse who used to work in one of the top IVF clinics in Sydney, I have seen first hand how difficult this journey can be, perhaps that is why i am having problems with the "faith" side of things. or perhaps its just a protection mechanism. During the experience on our last loss, I thought to myself I don`t know if I can do this again. I just felt as though I couldn`t handle another loss, to go through the whole experience again. But with a little time (one month), I am now beginning to look to the future, feeling that the strength to try again has returned. I read an interesting statement on the internet about learning to celebrate the journey, struggles, hopes, losses and potential. So that`s what I will try and focus on, the journey...and start hoping for a happy ending.

Thank you for the advice on visualisation, I am going to try and work on that.

Thank you again for your reply.

I wish you every happiness and luck on your own journey.
