Sorry I had to add to a post I did last week - It was titled "How fast was that??" and it wasn't until after I had posted that I realised that it could be taken as being a bit insensitive if people thought I was referring to the nature of my TTC time since the m/c - I was referring to the morphing of December into January and how it had flown but I would hate for people to think that I could be disrespectful of how the TTC journey unfolds differently for each person.

Chappas - I haven't had a chance yet - so for your news and may that little tacker cosy up tight and not let go for you!

erybery - I understand the frustration with the OPKs at times - when we have used them over the years - sometimes I fell pregnant on ones where the test line wasn't obviously darker or as dark as the control (and the pregnancy did stick) and other times I would get a situation where I would get very dark lines for several days (much darker than the control) and you go WTH - 'what is this - a mutant ovulation?' and temp and mucus play snap for a few days too - and you just think OK - let's just BD marathon this tacker (get a bit tired by about day 3 though but I used to say to DP I'd slap him if he complained about too much action...)

Mel - may this operation bring you some peace of mind for you on this one

AFM - finally found a GP who hasn't shut their books and is not taking on new patients as my previous GP has shut up practice - sadly she was the only doc I've ever found who was supportive of homebirthing so now I just have to take what I can get and hope that the pg is relatively uncomplicated so I can go down that path again. Luckily I do have a brilliant homebirthing midwife so let's face it - that is the ultimate stroke of luck for which I am eternally grateful. So in a couple of weeks - should be able to 'confirm' pg and organise a u/s early on to see how things are progressing.

Much love to everyone here!
