    Jen - DS2 is doing ok today, he spent yesterday a little teary, he made a cross and put it on her grave.

    Tina - prayers and for you and DH. It's not an easy day to get through, we spent ours as a family, without anyone else around.

    Mollycat:
    I'm sorry about your doggy... I went through that a lot when I was a child.. I know you can never replace a best friend... I hope you can have a new addition so you can have a new friend.
    You are in my prayers.

    Tina....You are in my prayers too... I know the pain of losing a baby and I know how hard it is that our babies would have been growing and thriving if they were here.

    I keep comfort in knowing that they are well taken care of in heaven by god, family and friends.

    hugs

    quick reply this morning but will be back to read through later

    AF still has not show up but another this morning with a different brand of test

    Some very very slight bloody mucus but still not even enough to find on when wiping, cramps continue as well

    My temp also dropped this morning to 36.2 which is still above the coverline but only just

    Really dont know what's happening although I have lost a little hope with the temp drop

    DH and I even this morning to see if he could get my innards working and still nothing yet

    Any ideas??

    tina--Thinking of you and saying a for you and your angel baby! Enjoy your quiet time, and I think you should buy something for yourself, as well as your new little one! You deserve it!



    mollycat--Aww, were you able to bury her somewhere on your property? Do you think you'll end up getting another dog?



    AJC!!



    Easha--So sorry to hear about your BFN... your temp is still above the coverline, though! And it may just still be too early...have you gone through the chart gallery and tried overlaying your chart with other charts? I did that last month and found a lot of comfort in seeing some late BFP's, and -HPT's before +HPT's. Some charts were also BFP after 15DPO...so don't give up! I'm so hard that you'll still be blessed with a BFP!!


    Angel--You're awfully quiet today--everything ok?


    tutmae--You've been too quiet, as well! What's up with you girl?? Hopefully you're too busy and catching that egg!

    Hi Ladies,

    Sorry this is going to be a bit of a short one....

    WTH - Im thinking of you hun, and hope you are ok, saying lots of for you

    Mollycat - sorry to hear about the passing of your fury friend for you and your family.

    Joey - I hope you are ok hun and sorry to hear that AF arrived.

    Easha - sorry about AF arriving...sending you loads and loads of GL for next cycle!

    AB - Sorry about the BFN...is it to early????

    Big and hello to all you lovely ladies!

    Tina - CONGRATUALTIONS HUN! Wishing you a very healthy and happy pg'cy. About the cramping....ITS TOTALLY NORMAL!!!!! Everything is going to be ok...im sure. I had af pains with ds too, but they were more concentrated in my uterus...real AF pains are in my back as well, aching lower back pain. Apparently early pg'cy pains are more to the front, according to my mid-wife mum! Thanks mum

    And by the way, just in case I have never mentioned this...my mum is a mid-wife and has been for 20 years! So im very lucky and often ask her your questions so I can help answer you!!!(I hope you dont mind)...and yes, she has delievered both my DS and my nephew...her two beautiful grandsons! Lucky lady huh? And I dont think I have ever mentioned this before either....my OB/GYN/FS (a lovely 58 yr old man) was the OB at MY BIRTH (as in me, 25 yrs ago) and the birth of my sisters, and has worked with my mum for 20 yrs! And my FS nurse...is my mum's best friend!
    I come from a VEEEERRRRYYYY long line of mid-wifes (sister is also a mid-wife) and nurses. I have been surrounded by women who talk about pregnancy, birth, women and babies my whole life. When I grew up, my house was filled with books about pregnancy and birth (there was even a pelvis model with a baby in it in my mums office, which I used to play with when I was a little girl) pictures of women breast feeding and even birth videos. I was watching home and water birth videos at 6!

    Anyway, just a little background on me....sorry for the ramble!

    Ok ladies, didnt end up being that short.... but have a great day, Ill bbl for more later!

    Hi ladies

    I just had to post..even though I've been trying to stay quiet for fear of jinxing myself. But Af was meant to come today and there's no sign of her. usually I get spotting on day 25, but today is day 26 and there's nothing but creamy white CM. I've been exhausted (which could be down to working 6 days straight), and possibly needing to pee more. Also, I've been doing..em..number 2's..more regularly..which usually only happens if I'm sick or pg. So fingers crossed. I'm going to wait until Thursday morning to test..provided AF doesn't show. I've had basically no cramping, which I usually also get when AF is coming, just a few very tiny twinges. *fingers crossed*

    Sorry for the selfish post! I'll get back intothings more soon, I've just been trying not to think about TTC this cycle, but had to share my quiet hopefulness with girls who'd understand!

    Thinking of you all.

    tutmae--Aww, hon, I just read Lilah's story and I'm in I never realized how hard your pg'cy was for you, and that any future ones will be tough, as well. And yet you continue trying...it's inspirational what a strong woman you are! Lilah is so lucky to have such a strong mommy! Thanks so much for sharing Lilah's story with us, I hope it helped in some small way to be able to put it into words...

    Big, big tutmae!
