Tutmae - What absolutely fabulous news - congratulations! Hope the next couple of weeks fly for you until you get to see your precious jellybean.

pbstar - that is so wonderful. No congrats then as requested yet but some quiet, happy cheers from me. I can't wait to hear about your poas tomorrow ... let us know as soon as we can jump up and down with excitement for you

Thanks also to those ladies who have passed on their kind thoughts for me this week ... this thread is the safest place in the world... Angel babies - that song is amazing. I could only listen to it once but i know as the days go on I will head back and listen to it and think of my bubs.

afm - Had the d&c first thing yesterday and was home by 11am thankfully. Can't seem to get enough of my son at the moment. Poor child is at risk of overdose from kisses and cuddles. Sorry if this is tmi, but had very minimal spotting only after leaving hospital until 6pm tonight when I had the most god-awful cramps that had me doubled over and a lot of fresh red bleeding. Didn't have that last time around - anyone else have this? I took some capadex that they prescribed me and that seemed to help. Bleeding has eased up a lot now.

Have been keeping VERY busy and working hard at being very strong but kind of came unstuck today. Must have been the drop in hormones after y/day. Also we have very close friends that are due 12 Feb (6 days before we would have been) who had their 12w scan today - they called tonight to let us know it went well. Then we had to tell them about us. I wish them every happiness in the world but ... ouch. I am going to ask the counsellor to give me some coping strategies on how to deal with the constant reminders that this will mean for us and the best way to not become a bitter old hag (I know I can say these things to you girls...)

Also, I have decided to go back on the pill for a little while. My poor body needs a break - this year has seen 20 weeks of being pg and feeling cack, 2 miscarriages and 2 d&c's. And it's only August. Yikes. However have dusted off my pom poms and plan on being a ttcaml cheerleader until I feel brave enough to try again...
