Mel - I should emphasise that I am very amateur when it comes to tarot (I still need to use a reference book for some cards). Its something a friend and I used to do in high school. I only read for myself since I'm not confident enough to do them for other people. DH doesn't really like it which is why I don't do it much any more. It just seemed fitting since its a new year. I believe that tarot, astrology etc are ways we can gain insight into our lives. And its a little bit of fun. I would never make big decisions based on my interpretations.
Thanks for all your kind words of comfort. At least I know it is a common reaction in men! I was blessed the day I found this website and all you girls. It is funny how total strangers can have such an important impact on your life - in a positive way at that
I am sitting here with tears in my eyes from all your responses and smiling too.
I know I have said it before but I will say it again - you girls have been my tower of strength (as well as DF) through this whole journey and I can't thank you all enough. I can only pray that you all get the BFP's you so deserve and the beautiful babies you all long for. That is my wish for 2009.
I'm sorry for being a big lurker still but i still cant shift this illness, starting to get me down now which prob isnt helping!
I had 25 week midwife app yesterday, and all is good, she had a listen to bub and a poke and a prod and all is fine, i just need to get myself better now.
DF and i are going to start work on the babies room this weekend which i'm so excited. its a long way off being decorated but at least its a start.
Sorry this is a bit of a "ME" post but got to go and get some grub ready for df and myself.
i am dropping in from time to time to catch up on all that is going on so you are all in my thoughts!
We lost our little Lilli 2mths ago now She was 5mths and 1wk old. Sadly it was SIDS, well we think, the ortopsy report isn't back as yet, which apparently can take another several mths. The police still have all Lilli's bedding, which i want back so much. I just want to make her bed up, ifkwim. I also have a little boy, who is 4yrs old. He keeps me going everyday, and now goes and plays in Lilli's room. Which i really really love. He currently is still confused, he calls the hospital heaven, cause that was the last place he saw her.
Currently im in the TWW. Though in saying that, im 2 days late. I tested a few days ago and got BFN, so am now waiting till they are at least 1wk late.
OK better get moving,
Rach

Rach--Oh, honey... I just don't even have the words at the moment to tell you how truly sorry I am for the loss of your precious little Lilly! My DS was 6 when I had my m/c, and I was only about 8 weeks, and it was so tough and confusing for him to understand what was going on. I just can't even imagine poor Ethan, and what he's thinking and feeling! You and your family are in my thoughts and
OK first attempt at personals for the new year. Love to all at the outset in case I miss anyone!!
Jen- I hope you are feeling better sweetie. You are always so positive and supportive of everyone I was really worried when I heard you weren?t feeling great. Sorry about BFN, right there with you. Despite a distinct absence of AF still (where is she?!?! D15 PO) I POAS this morning (one of the super sensitive ones) and BFN. Rats! Heres hoping next months egg will be the one for both of us.
HannahD, firstbub polly, ?Doh! Rotten AF! Good luck with the next cycle, sure you will catch the elusive eggie next time. Hang in there, my thoughts are with you on your next cycles.
Mel?good luck with your tests this week, DH and I are still waiting to hear about ours.
Ruthie- hello dear- talk about rollercoaster- You poor thing, think you body needs a bit of a talking to!- hope things are clearer after the weekend.
babymiracles?hope you have lots of healthy happy little eggs for growing!
Mannie?I?m sure all the positive vibes that float around this tread help support the bubs that grow- I?m sure you are right- this year will be it for us!
Mel?Hope you are feeling better- down with AF and her nasty behavior I say!
Tam- thinking of you and your scan. Lots of positive vibes for your little bub.
Belly rubs for Kezzabird, smi, fifi and tutmae
erybery?hope you are feeling ok and the clomid gets you a bub very soon!
Theresa- I completely understand, my DH also gets frustrated with me sometimes for ?over thinking?. I think boys really want to ?fix? things- if we can?t we should just ?not worry?? hmm, while academically I understand this, emotionally I?m not quite there
Rach?I?m so sorry for your loss Rach. My prayers are with you and your family, good luck on you TTC journey.
AJC, Easha, mollycat, WTH, toccara, Acria, kristlove, HannahS, megsmum, issa, smi, possums, Ty and everyone else, big
AFM- well, as I said BFN but no AF. Have no idea what my body is doing. A little worried as I?m still waiting for my first ?full? cycle since the mc. Was sure we caught the O this month (CM and OPT, about 2 ?- 3 wk after mc), but now an 15PO and no AF- this is very strange for me (always AF at D14PO). But as I sit here can feel building headache, so maybe AF is just around the corner. Very much looking forward to hearing from FS, hopefully next week.
OK, better do some work, even though it is Friday.
Hi everyone. Going to have to skip personals today as in a bit of pain and probably need to get back to bed and lie down, although just one for Rachel
Rach- I am so sorry you hear about your beautiful baby Lily. I cannot imagine what you are going through. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this devastating time in your lives. I have no more words but know you are in a supportive forum of women who care and where you can express any thoughts/feelings/anger/grief and say whatever you need to.
Thanks all for you best wishes for my egg collection today. I am very pleased to say that it was a success and I got more eggs than I could of hoped for (from scan the other day and what radiologist said I got double what I thought I might get). Now just praying for lots to fertilize and grow and then a BFP in a few weeks time Got a few more eggs than last time and last time I got mild hyperstimulation syndrome so a bit nervous as to how I am going to go this time. Pretty sore at the moment so am trying to rest as much as possible. Thanks again for your thoughts and support - you are such a wonderful group of ladies
Rachel - I am so, so sorry for your loss of your little baby girl Lilli. I can't even imagine what you must be going through. You are in my thoughts and and I wish you luck on your TTC journey.
babymiracles - Yah for your eggs! you get your BFP in a couple of weeks time.
Indy - Sending vibes your way!
Fifi - Hope you feel better soon.
Hi to everyone else.
Sorry for lack of personals but I am not feeling that well. AF is kicking my butt this month! You would think if she is going to turn up she could at least go easy on us!
Sending my love to you all - it must seem I have forgotten you all but the ladies here are never far from my thoughts. I feel like I am in another time zone at the moment so forgive my lack of personals. Just know that I check up on you all at least once a day.
To answer most of you - I am now 3 days late but I am too scared to test as I don't want to see a BFN!!! I was thinking of waiting until next week if AF hasn't shown up?!?!?
Rach - I am so sorry for your loss. I was devastated when I lost Zachary and I know it must be agonizing for you. This is the best forum you can be in! I wish you all the luck in the world.
Mel - hope you are feeling better soon. to you.
babymiracles - Excellent news
Indy - After losing Zachary I have found that my cycles are out of sync! They have fluctuated between 28 and 32 days over the last 5 months and it looks like it will be another weird month for me again wondering if AF is going to arrive or not! I am sending you all the positive vibes in the world!
Hello all. I am currently TTC. My husband and I lost our first child due to miscarriage on December 15, 2008. Our little angel was a girl and I was 3 1/2 months along. I am still recovering emotionally. We have since started ttc again and are hoping for a BFP this month. Wish me luck and all the baby dust this way please. Sending lots of Baby Dust everyones way and hoping for alot of BFP!
Zachary's mum - Im 3days late to, maybe we are on similar cycle??
Babymiracles - Sending you lots of growing eggs vives, and hope you get a BFP very soon.
Indy - Hope af stays away for you!!!
Shortcake - Hi, sorry about your loss. Hope you get a BFP ASAP to.
Ok, so heres my bizzare mth. Im now 3days late. Ive did a few tests BFN. My cervix has been really low to so thought yep, AF is coming. Ive got this feelin in my boob. Its kinda similar to what you get when your brestfeeding, when your filling up your milk, iykwim. So i was really sad about yesterdays BFN, but this morning, i awake, and still no AF, but my cervix has gone really high now. Honestly yesterday, it was right there, and now, pop, gone. So i have my fingers crossed and will test again on wednesday i think, that way AF will be a wk late then. If AF hasn't come that is. Ive even been looking at nursery stuff, but looking at little girls stuff mainly. Hopeful wishing i think.
Im so so so sorry for this short post (which is also going to lack persies please forgive me?) i need to get my skates on and clean the house for inspection later today...
But.....I had my first scan yesterday and I am pleased (no...over the moon) to announce that our little bean was there up on the screen, wiggling and even moving its arms (or tiny stumps I should say ) Baby is looking great and measured 8w3d, so a little out from what we had calculated. Bubs is 19mm long...a tiny bean! We are feeling a little more relaxed but of course are still not telling anyone until 12wks....come on 12wks!
A huge hello to everyone in here, im sorry I havent posted very much in here lately..I certainly have not forgotten anyone, you are all very much in my thought and prayers and I thankyou all for giving me the ultimate support on my my ttc journey last year...
and a quick hey gurlies!
that you get a positive soon so as to have some happiness in such a difficult situation.
Hope you enjoy your 2 days off from work!
beating away!!

My DS was 6 when I had my m/c, and I was only about 8 weeks, and it was so tough and confusing for him to understand what was going on. I just can't even imagine poor Ethan, and what he's thinking and feeling! You and your family are in my thoughts and
