    Sharon - I am going to visit all different belly buddies/ttc trhreads so I am sure we'll keep in touch during our journeys. I did not test early this time because I started testing at 9DPO last time and I did not get a definate result until DPO 16. I really have every thing crossed for you.

    Janeo - Goodluck for Friday hon. Your ring description sounds really spectacular.

    SallyJ - YOu can get a +ve test up to 4wks post D and C. I would test in a week or so and I would see your doc. Goodluck

    Oh well off to my doc. I am soooo nervous, and I don't know why. I guess I will need a blood test, one of many to come I am guessing.

    Thanks everyone for your kind words and support. I'm on nightshift at the moment so I've just crawled out of bed !!! I'm heading over to see the Dr this afternoon, so I can fire all my questions at her.

    I was a little rattled to read that is can take months for your body to get back into a 'normal' cylce. As you can imagine I'm eager to jump back on the wagon and start TTC ASAP! But DH is (as usual) being the voice of reason, there is no rush. Our lives have been pretty hectic for the past 6-8 months.... We've sold a house, renovated the kitchen, errected a pergola, got engaged then married 3 months later and somehow had the honeymoon from hell as well!!

    Speaking of Weddings CONGRATULATIONS JANEO that's fantastic and such an exciting time! Your ring sounds gorgeous and very similar to what I wanted for my own, but DF at the time decided he wanted everything to be a complete suprise so chose the biggest dimond he could find!! Which happened to be a brilliant cut, claw set with 3 princess cut diamonds either side and all in white gold. It's beautiful and I've grown to absolutely adore it, although the size and setting can be VERY impractical (especially at work).

    Well, off to the Dr now hope to speak to you all soon x

    Hi all,

    Saltprincess - try and keep positive if you can as hard as that must be.

    Bun - I'm sorry to see you've been up and down over the past few days - I hope you are back up there by the time you read this.

    Leyla - Sorry AF arrived. When people ask just say "we are working on it". That's what we used to do (when I was married & tried for 8.5 years unsucessfully) and that used to satisfy most people and they very rarely asked further questions.

    Herbie - I also go to the loo soon after (after getting several UTI's over the years) and I still conceived after 9 months compared with last time it took 3 years to conceive and I used to lay in bed for ages with my legs up. I don't think it really matters.

    Janeo - I hope the next test is +ve.

    Sharon - I'll say what I've said to many on other threads in these forums - don't test until your AF is overdue. This way you will not be disappointed with the results of testing too early. I know that's hard but I had to get that way after trying for so long - I found it's the only way to keep your sanity if you end up TTC long term.

    Bekz - glad all is well with you.

    Welcome Lalla. Sorry for your loss. I've read that your next AF should come between 2 to 6 weeks after m/c. Some women take longer but most are between 2 & 6 weeks. I haven't had mine yet but am hoping it will be soon.... or not if I get a BFP instead.




    I had a great but hectic Easter. Have been feeling really positive until today. A workmate and his wife lost their baby yesterday. She was due in just two weeks time. She has a history of m/c but they thought she'd make it this time. I'm not close to this guy at all but the news just hit me for six and bought all the emotional stuff from 3 weeks ago back again. I did not expect to feel so sad about someone elses situation.... very odd indeed. I'm feeling good again now but am not looking forward to the first day that the workmate comes back.... what on earth do you say?????

    Hi Girls,

    I just wanted to say a hi to you all and hope you don't mind if I join in!
    Over the passed couple of days I've read some of your posts and for some reason the thought of posting a reply was really daunting, but tonight I decided to get over it and just say hi, and tell you all how great it is to have a forum where there's such support!

    I had a missed m/c for the 1st time just over 5 weeks ago now, I was 9 weeks, though my Dr said I had lost the baby at 7 weeks. It was such a shock, because there were no signs at all, and until then I'd never heard of a missed MC!

    The last month has been up and down, there are times when I think it's all ok then there are days when I feel so sad. Easter was difficult because this is when we were due to announce to everyone - in addition my sister in law just had a gorgeous baby girl last week, so DH and I had to deal with the family inquisition of when we were going to produce! Needless to say I was greatful for steady flow of champagne!

    Any how, I just wanted to say hi to everyone and am sending lot's of sticky vibes to you all.

    P.s am still getting my head around all the abreviations, so you'll have to bear with me!
