Hi Everyone!

Thanks to ALL of you for your wishes on Katelyn's EDD anniversary, we had a nice couple of days together and did all the things we had planned. It is still so hard and i cried buckets on the day but every year things seem to be different some how...i cant really explain it just that it still hurts as much as it did the day we lost her but somehow i have learned to be able to manage the grief but keep the sadness and happiness of her life alive IYKWIM.

Kelly, YAY for you getting that BFP that was extremly encouraging to come back too! I understand totally about you being stressed...my only advice after going through a successful pregnancy with Lucy after i lost Katelyn is take one day at a time because each day brings different emotions and feelings some better than others but you WILL get through this pregnancy and hold that little bub in your arms. Im really happy for your SIL too thats great news. Both times i have fallen pregnant somebody has phoned me to tell me that day that they are pregnant too so i hear you on the "what if i lose this one and then their baby will be a constant reminder" i dont have much advice just to be positive and as i said before just take each day as it comes. How many DPO did you get your BFP and start having symptoms?

Tanya, Oh im really sorry that you didnt get your BFP this month....I wish it had of been a different result for you. How are you feeling about it all today? Are you still going to take a month off? What did the special diet contain??? I really hope that this is your month regardless of whether you are going to try or not!

Shan, How are you doing? I hope that you managed to get a BFP after your BFN....Please let me know how you are doing.

Jayne, I will be thinking of you for your scan on friday...the 12w ones are the best of the whole pregnancy i reckon.

Michelle, How are you doing? Officially in the tww yet? I hope that you and DH went at it all weekend and you will get that BFP soon. I thought it was lovely what you said about "knowing" Caitlyn, we did know them didnt we! I hope she sees fit to send you a special sticky bub this month though!

Sez, How are you doing? Thanks for what you said about me being a good friend, i really appreciate that. I will be sending you positive thoughts during your appointment with your doc and hopefully s/he gives you and DH the green light! Let me know how you go...I hear you on not being able to sleep while DH is away, i am exactly the same, i dont know what i am going to do when Rowan goes to the AFL grandfinal with my dad (they are staying a week!). My mum lives next door so i guess i could stay with her but i dont want to disrupt Lucy. It sounds as though this last weekend was very hard for you , honestly those situations you discribed would have made me cry too. Everything is so hard but you hang in there and get that BFp this month!

Kim, Welcome to our group, you will find heaps of support here. I am sorry to hear about your loss and having to go through the ordeal of two D&C's. I think that it was incredibly insenstive of your mum to do that too you (i am assuming that she never lost a child) Luckily i wasnt there because i would have given her what for! You need support for your loss and for TTC again not what happened today. I hope that you are oing and you get that BFP again real soon.

Kate, How are you feeling today with your back? I am sorry that you had the news about your Chiro friend, its a very hard thing to deal with when others around us get pregnant and we should still be pregnant so vent away but know that you will get that BFP soon.

Belle, Oh you make me laugh lol....Maybe i will get some OPK's this month since you love 'em so much! How are you going with the TWW? I really hope it ends in that BFP you want!

Kaz, How are you doing? Thinking about ttc anytime soon? I must say again that Declan is such a cutie and thanks for asking after Lucy she is doing extremly well! Growing too quick, she is 18 months old today and i dont know where the time went!

Lisa, You must be exhausted, how is your friend coping? She is lucky to have you there for her! How are you going this cycle?

Kristy, How are you doing? I have been thinking of you... Let me know how you are.

Kirsty, That appointment is coming closer, how are you feeling about it all? By the way i had a look at your photos (hope you dont mind), you look exactly like i thought you would which was weird like i have seen you before or something lol James is a cutie isnt he, that photo of him holding a baby broke my heart though...

Amy & Naomi, How are you girls doing?

Keen, How are you going? where are you up too?

Well i am sorry if i forgot anyone but i think that is everyone.....

As for me, i am doing fine i think....I am NOT even going to mention the word symptoms because i know its probably too early for much but i am 11 dpo today and for the last two days i have had increasingly sore BB's (which reminded me that i actually had that when i was pregnant before but had forgotten lol) which i dont normally get before AF, they actually feel warm when you touch them so something is going on there....also i have noticed a few girls talking about smells OMG - Some things have been truly grossing my nose out and so strong! I have also had a few pains down low today so i really dont know what is going on and of course i have to keep it all to myself because Rowan wants his suprise (althought that is going to be fun when it happens). There is a huge part of me saying it all looks good and then i shrink down and think it cant possibly be it so soon....I also had a dream on friday night that i did a test at my GP's (we are going there Thursday for Lucy's chicken pox needle) and it was positive weird or what - you can tell whats on my mind lol. I told Rowan and he got so excited and says he wants it to happen now so its good to see its not just us chicky babes who hanker for that BFP! I am not going to test until probably saturday though because i cant handle getting a BFN and then waiting for AF to arrive. Wish me luck girls the wait is near on killing me lol but at least in a few days it will be done and i will know either way.
