    Thanks mannie, WTH, babyfever, larz, AJC, plc, angel babies and mollycat so much for all the congratulations

    Larz - Looking forward to hearing all your good news after your US

    Hannah - So sorry that you are having a hard time. I know it doesn't seem it at the moment, but it will get better soon. Just think about that little bubba that you will soon have in your tummy. It will make you feel so much better if you can some how look to the future. That's the only thing that got me through. Take care sweet.

    KL - Thanks! This one is a healthy one so I'm not going to stress. If it's going to go bad, then it's going to go bad and negative thinking will only help that happen. So, I'm thinking positively and all will be good. It's not as if I am going to be less upset if I am thinking something bad will happen, so why waste the next 8 months of my life being miserable!

    Jen - Thanks hon. That did put a smile on my face. How you doin'???

    AFM - that's all.

    Take care girlies. Ready ... catch ...

    JOEY123: Congrats on your i am so pleased for you!!!!

    Ruthie & Toccara: I still have you both in my and hope you both get your little miracles

    AFM: I have my first midwife appointment today, i'm a little scared, i know they will usually only ask all the medical questions etc and prob take some blood, but am still worried about it.

    I'm still wondering and hoping that little bub is still alive and growing by the day. I lost my angel at 7-8 weeks last time so past week or so has been very scary, every little movemment or feeling inside me, i'm wondering and hoping that everything is still alright.

    Sleeping has got slightly better, but not much and nausea is still lurking around, i can only take it as a good sign.

    Right must get back to work

    Big to everyone

    Joey - congrats! great news

    Hannah - hello and welcome, don't think we've properly met yet. Couldn't go past your friend's wtf comment without adding my favourite one after my first m/c - my friend actually said to me "well, that one was probably a boy and now you can try again for a girl". Yep. Firstly, never said I wanted a girl, a boy would have been amazing too. Secondly, that baby turned out to have been a girl. Thirdly - just a completely daft and stupid thing to say! I sympathise!! How good is it though that we can come here and vent - I know I would not be functioning at half this level without this forum/thread...

    Hello everyone else

    Had a sucky day at work today ...... get ready for number one a$$ wipe boss story of the year ...... found out today at work that my boss twice removed is "irate" at me having 2 weeks off after the 2nd miscarriage as it means he has failed his target of low team sick leave for the year (and may not get as high a bonus next year - cause its all about the money). He questioned (via my boss) that I needed that much time off. He wanted to punish my whole team by not allowing anyone to have leave until January. Yes - this is a true story. I can hear you all booing and hissing in the background and I know 100% that you would all love to get a swipe at him if you could!! What a tosser! The best part is - he did not have the balls to say this to my face.... I am documenting all of this in case I decide to pursue something more serious/lodge a complaint down the track. Bit too emotional to do so at the moment.

    Off to Sydney tomorrow for Gran's funeral so will be MIA from here until about Thursday... will be thinking of you all and just wanted to say - chins up lovelies. We are all amazing strong women who WILL have another baby. Soon.

    fifi - I'm sure all will go well. Positive thinking. Let us know the good news when you get home.

    Jenushka - what a smart thing to start logging it all. Wait till you feel better, have some additional ammo, and then go kick his hairy ar$e!
    Thinking of you and your family through this tough time. Take care honey.

    Hey lovely ladies,

    Sorry I have not been around for awhile... I have been trying to stop obsessing about becoming preg and have had weddings, work and everything at the moment. I have missed you all though.

    Toccara and Ruthie - I am so sorry for your loss......... you are in my prayers

    Joey and Krystielove - yayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayaya congratulations.

    AFM - got some spotting today so thing AF will arrive yet again. Saw gyno again and he wants to sit and wait for a few months and then get DH to do another sperm test. Soooooo alll I can do is wait I guess.

    to all the newies..... hope your time with us is short

    to all long term BB ladies

    Well have had my first midwife appointment, just the usual family history etc.

    She has changed my due date to 1st May, i have changed my ticker accordingly

    She took blood, my god did it hurt, "you'll feel a little scratch!!" yeah right, im usually ok with giving blood but that one hurt!

    I asked if they would give me any early scans due to the previous M/C but she said if they did it for everyone who asked cause they were worried they wouldnt have time for all the normal scans!!!! So am just going to get booked in for my 12 weeks as normal.

    Oh well i'm sorry, i'm just terrified to know that my little bub is still there, how stupid of me to ask!!!

    anyway rant over!

    Thanks for listening girlies

    Hannah-I'm sorry you have been going through what you have. Did the Doctor say if you had to have anything done since your lining is thick again? I'm sorry your cramping and uncomfortable. Sometimes waiting to TTC can be a good thing because of less stress. But with me I couldn't wait any longer I had been waiting almost a year and with 2 losses this year alone, I just wanted to get pregnant and stay pregnant so I TTC right away. I wish you best this round. Wow, I cannot believe your friend said that OMG! Wow, I don't understand people sometimes expechally friends..

    babyonBoard-Hello and welcome. SOrry to hear about your loss. I too lost a baby in July at 6week 1day & on cycle round 2 after loss and its been 1 year of TTC total. I hope the best that you get a BFP soon and that your little one will be nice and strong for you.

    Treelo-Glad to see you back in the TTC world. I hope that you get your BFP this cycle darling.

    Jade-Sorry for your loss. I'm glad AF came for you so you can start TTC.

    Jen-How are you doing darling?


    ATM-I'm 6DPO, I called my OBs today to see if I could get an HCG quanitative pregnancy test done tomarrow since I have to come in for a CD 21 progesterone check. The nurse was like the shot wont be out of your system bla bla bla, I was like trust me I have a sensitive test mroe sensitive than your tests and its gooten to the point of being negitive & I lied to get my way saying I had gotten a dark positive again.. Hopefully it works. I was like eyha And I would have to come back in in 48 hours to make sure Im truly pregnnat and its not the shot still. So shes going to ask the DR and should be calling me back about saying yay or nay about the test.. Sometimes you gotta lie to Nurses cuz sometimes theyre just plan Um DUH. Its like she first wanted to do a urine test I was like UM your gonna have to do it by blood lol..
