Hi everyone

I have had a really rough weekend (should have had D&C Monday but started naturally Saturday, think I lost the little one down the toilet but couldn't bring myself to look as was waiting for Mark to come home from work and was too scared and horrified - feel really cut up bad about how my angel left. ) Spent the weeknd in hospital bleeding and clotting real bad, huge, huge loss, they were worried about my haemoglobin as it dropped by 33% and they faffed about whether to go a D&C in the middle of the night as were worried I needed a blood transfusion. Went down first thing Tuesday (6 am) and am good, had a superb registrar who had loads of time for me and my worries and fears. Not like the UK at all, they tend to talk at you rather than with you (unless you are very lucky). Good news is, nothing conclusive on the 'losing girls' thing and can TTC as soon as feel ready. Basically he was open and honest and said at 42, eggs will be slightly older and some may not be in such good condition but if we want more children, then we must keep trying and be prepared that 25% of all pregnancies end in m/c because something is wrong. Sounds harsh when I read it back but he was so nice. Real good 'bedside manner'.

Anyway, on with April and AF!!!

BekZ and Tinsel - you lucky lucky mares!!!! Well done those DH/DP's!!!!

Bun - unless you know otherwise and this is so unlike her, your 'friend' sounds way out of order Perhaps (and this is the best case scenario I can think of) she was trying to protect you from how quickly she fell???? (um, not happy about your mum's reaction either - grrrr).

Satya - feel for you so much, keep your chin up, I'm with you!!

Sharon - hope the BDing went well (will take that as a 'yes'!!)

Janeo - if you are about, how about some details on that ring????

I've missed so much, it's a April already!!!

Love and to all
Alex
