Hi girls,

Happy birthday Satya!!!! I hope you have a fantastic day!

Patience - welcome. I am glad you have enjoyed reading our little thread! Feel free to post anytime you like - it can feel good to get it all out, and we understand what you are going through. It is so sad that we will never again experience the joy of a BFP or feel the confidence and excitement of pregnancy. After a m/c, it is just never the same. I would love to be one of those people for whom it works out and to never have felt this pain and uncertainty. I just keep telling myself that will only make it more special when it works out, as we truly understand what a miracle it really is.

Lee - wow - your wedding is so close now! Your little boy will be there with you in spirit. I would BD tonight if you can be bothered, just to give yourself the best chance, but it is up to you. It would be great if you only BD'ed on your wedding night, and got pg, then you would know it was a wedding night bub!

shoegal - welcome and sorry to hear of your loss. There are way too many girls in here and I wish no one had to go through this ever. 22 May was actually the EDD of my first loss, so it is a date I will always remember. I'm not sure when AF will come, but it is a good sign that your HCG is so low - I would expect AF anyday. The opinions on when to TTC again are all different - I got told anything from starting again straight away to waiting 3 months (one dr told me there is a higher chance of m/cing again if you fall within 3 mths of a m/c, but I have since confirmed that this is rubbish - so who knows who to believe if even the drs have no idea!). I reckon just wait for one AF to give your body a chance to recover, and wait longer if you feel you need more time emotionally.

jen - woo hoo! Love your ticker!!! So happy for you!!! I can understand you being scared, but all is sounding great - you will be having a beautiful baby!!!

pash - the TWW is torture, isn't it? I am glad you feel you are figuring things out, it is all so confusing at first. I can't believe how much I have learnt over the last year or so, but it takes a while to understand it all. Fingers crossed!

TTBP - welcome and sorry to hear your news. I lurked here for ages before posting as I was too shy too! Don't worry - we are all very nice and would love to get to know you. I found my first cycle after each m/c was strange and was longer than normal, I think that's pretty common, but it should go back to normal soon. Don't worry, it is unlikely to be a sign of other problems, just your body getting itself back to normal again.

Sharon - how are you going?

Salt - 8DPO already! It is so hard trying not to look for symptoms and reading too much into things. I really do hope this is the one for you, and it is sounding very positive so far One of the things I found when pg was a very calm feeling which I don't usually get, so maybe that's a good sign?

I got a phone call from the clinic last night and was told to get another BT this morning. I am so sick of the early starts to get BTs before work, and am not sleeping well - I am soooo tired. We were not told to BD last night, so I must not have O'ed yet, but we did BD anyway (naughty naughty). They will phone again this afternoon and tell me what is happening, but apparently I should O very very soon, I am hoping today or tomorrow. DH is funny - he told me that after BD, I should lie on my back and hug my legs to help the spermies reach their destination. I told him that's not necessary, but he made me do it anyway! Next thing he will be having me do headstands against the wall after BD!
