good morning everyone. Sorry i have been a bit quiet over the last couple of days - we have had some busy ones. went out for dinner last night for a friends bday and I think I am still full lol.

Firstly - welcome to Juliewa and smallfryplus. I'm sorry for the loss of your little ones but you have found a wonderful supportive bunch of ladies here. I'm not sure what I would do without them.
Julie - i have had a natural m/c and a d&c and to be honest I am not sure which way i would choose if i had to go through it again. The d&c was the first operation and general anesthetic i have ever had and I found it all very traumatic. i was so scared of having it done and was in tears when they put me under. I had that in July 08 due to a missed m/c discovered at 8wks (bub had stopped growing at a bit over 5wks). I had a natural m/c in Jan 09. I had what is best described as contractions for 4 days - before, during and after giving "birth" to my little one - unfortunately, like Jen, it was horrible knowing I was flushing my baby down the toilet but with my son home with me i didn't want him seeing me m/c'ing and the toilet seemed like the most "private" place for me to be while I was going through the m/c. the natural m/c for me was very very drawn out and very painful, even with strong pain relief prescribed to me (oxycodone) I was still in so so much pain - the oxycodone barely took the edge off! Where as the d&c was so scary for me but a lot less painful overall. In fact, I had very little pain after the d&c - apart from the emotional pain of course. I hope this hasn't confused you more and I hope you are able to come to a decision that best suits you. And I am so so sorry you have had to go through this without your DH with you - that would be so hard! *hugs*

Jen - cycle buddies hey - sounds good. Although, I really think I O'd on cd20 so it will be interesting to see if my cover line changes to that date. It did change this morning when I put my temp in - what do you think - do you think that cd20 looks more like when I O'd? congrats on your coverline and welcome officially to the 2WW - I hope this is your last for a good 9 or so months

megsmum - *hugs* angel babies EDD are hard on us hey. thinking of you

Cherished - i have wondered the same thing about posting up old charts. I would love to get some opinions on that as well.. My preg chart last time looks a little different to this one so I am already thinking that I may be out - how bad is that so early in the 2WW My temps when I got my bfp last time shot up really quickly overnight and were a bit higher (by .2 or .3 of a degree) - does anyone know if the weather being colder will decrease our BBT? Goodluck lovely, i hope this is your month.

Shortcake - I its a implantation dip xxx

Mollycat - congrats on your BFP and a belated happy birthday - what a present hey!!!! I'm so incredibily happy for you! I can't wait to follow you through your pregnancy. Heres to an uneventful 9 months

Fifi - I so hope you are holding your little bubba by now - someone really didn't want to come out into the real world did they must be nice and cozy in there

Sorry if I missed anyone, Im at work so I can't go back to review any more posts as my computer will freeze up if I open a new window. I'm thinking of you all of course. Fingers crossed for lots of bfp's for our little new year babies. Happy bd'ing to those coming up to O. Baby dust to those waiting for a bfp this month (thinking positive - IT WILL BE YOUR MONTH!) and sticky vibes to our lovely preggy ladies. *hugs*
