    Toccara - I am so very sorry. It is just so cruel. Make sure you and DH give each other lots of hugs. I can understand your DH wanting to put blame on something or someone and have a reason for why this has happened. But you need to keep telling each other it is no-ones fault. We all want answers. I that you find these answers and it is something that can be easily fixed.

    Mannie - I was so hoping I would arrive home from work tonight to see everything was ok. I am so sorry it wasn't to be. Big hugs for you and your DH as well. I wish there was something more I could do or say. I would definitely be getting every possible test done to try and find some answers. for you at this time.

    HannahD - It's not over until AF shows her ugly face!!! Isn't hard to hold off from testing?

    Kristielove -

    Indy - Congratulations

    Mollycat - I'm sad you are leaving the thread but I completely understand that you would need some 'you' time. This TTC journey can so so consuming. It often happens when you least expect it or are not 'trying' so you never know! Feel free to keep 'lurking' and pop in from time to time.

    Mumstheword - Welcome. Sorry you've had to join but you will definitely find wonderful support here.

    Hi to Maddysmum, buliej, possums, tempus, jen, plc, AJC and all the other wonderful ladies on this thread.

    AFM - just went for my 2nd blood test to see if I ovulated around day 22. Hopefully should have the results by tomorrow afternoon. I know I definitely didn't o around day 13 as AF hasn't showed up yet. Does it sound awful to say part of me hopes I haven't o at all this month? (Complete turnaround from last week when I was in tears about it!) I guess I just want a reason why it isn't happening and I would be happy to try clomid. But then I worry Clomid wouldn't work for us....

    Indy - Congratulations on the BFP!

    Krystie - Of course you will still grieve for your angel honey. Thinking of you today as you remember your angel.

    mumstheword - Welcome. Goodluck with your TTC journey. Sending anti-AF vibes for the 19th.

    buliej - Hi!

    Mannie - I'm so very sorry. I hope you can get some answers. Enjoy your Christmas and I wish you and your DH all the best for 2009.

    Mel - I completely understand the turnaround. This TTC journey is just so hard sometimes, I don't know whether I'm coming or going.

    Hi ladies.

    I feel a bit selfish posting about my 20 week scan when there is such heartache going on with some at the moment. you are in my and my thoughts.

    My EDD is fast approaching for our angel baby with it being 26th Dec, boxing day. I'm a bit apprehensive about the day but i'm sure DF and I will get through it with the strength we give each other.

    Well..... my 20 weeks scan went amazingly. Everything is in the right place, doing the right thing and it the right size. I have some more wonderful pics which i posted in the gallery, so please take a look. I'm so pleased everything is ok. it's such a huge relief.

    I'm not feeling to great today tho as there is a lot of sickness and tummy bugs going round our office at the moment and i think i may have caught it. and drinking lots of water and crossing my fingers and hoping i havent got it.

    Thats it from me, sorry no time for persies as i'm at work.

    Just one thing, thinking of you all.

    Fificlaire - that's great news about your scan - you must be so excited (and relieved).

    Indy - congrats on the BFP - many people have champagne and more for many more nights than you before they know they are pregnant - I wouldn't worry at all.

    Mollycat - your decision is so understandable - I wish you all the best. And who knows - maybe we'll find you back in a preg thread!

    Hi and wishing only the best for everyone else...

    Mannie and Toccara - Oh no - I am just so sad on hearing your news ... it just is not at all fair - just wanted you to know that you're both in my thoughts

    KL - thinking of you today ...I had my first angel's edd recently and found it a little more emotional than I expected... enjoy your moments thinking of your first bub - and know that the baby you are pg with now is going to have a very special guardian angel with them always

    Indy - congrats! Here's a large helping of for you ... and I always get spotting 14-16 dpo. When I've told my GP about it she still called it implantation spotting... I made sure I got some quantitative hcg tests just to reassure myself anyway


    Hannah - sounds like you are way better at using the zen-vibes than I am! Maybe you should be in charge of them from now on... hope you're doing ok lovely...

    AFM - had a whirlwind baby check visit and scan with the ob yesterday. Bub gave me a minor nervous breakdown by lying completely still when the scanner first went on - ob was very quick to point out the heartbeat, and gave me a listen too (aaah!). As soon as I asked if ob could measure bub, it started up it's usual roller-disco moves and just would not be still for long enough to get a good measurement. She said she's very happy with everything - and that bub has grown the right amount. I have allowed myself a small amount of relief - and am hanging out now until the nt scan on 12 Dec (9 more sleeps!).

    Love to all - make sure you continue to take good care of yourselves and each other

    Good Wednesday Morning Gurlies!

    HannhD...hey young lady! How goes it with you...BFP yet?

    Toccara...aww hon...BIG HUGS for you and DH...this is a very trying time for you both emotionally...you must try to support one another which in the end will make you stronger in your relationship...be well!

    Indy...WOW!

    mollycat...I am such an arse! I never responded to the email you sent me and I promise I had every intent to...I apologize! I can tell you I have been going back and forth with the whole TTC issue...I truly wish I could get to the place where you are in whatever happens happens...but it's nearly impossible...I know too much about my body now. I often try to "trick" myself into forgetting my "O" time or my AF time thinking if I "forget" I'll somehow find myself pg...nuts I know...it's just so difficult. I am getting a little bummed because I am 37 soon to be 38 and we m/c 12/19/2007 with no BFP since...I am trying to remain positive but sometime you just wonder...why? Ya know...
    Anyway please continue to email me (I'll be better at responding *wink*)

    mannie... I am so very sorry...

    AFM...getting the typical AF symptoms...I guess this isn't our time...
