Ruthie - you helped me while I was down now its my turn....can you not visit your doctor and get him to do a blood test? maybe you are pregnant???. The human body is a miraculous thing and take a few deep breaths to remember that, I know I have had to do that recently. Your too good a person not have your forever baby so keep the dream alive and try not to get down about it.

My OB called me today and advised me to wait a month before trying again, that the levels were very low and not promising and the bleeding meant that I was in such early stages they deem it a chemical pregnancy (whatever! still a pregnancy!!) anyway he told me that he thinks that there is no underlying problem however to take 100mg aspirin once we begin trying again and to keep taking it while pregnant he said its very common for women my age to be clotting and thats why the baby may not stick....anyway will give it a go...if the 3rd pregnancy fails then he will send me for a full range of blood tests.

Am doing ok today at least I won $20 in the Melbourne Cup so something to be smiling about.

Jen - thinking of you in your 2WW!!

Goodluck Rach
