    Hi all,

    Feeling a little nervous today.

    I am going in for a blood test tomorrow to see if I am close to ovulation, so we can put the Frozen Embie in.

    I am not sure how I am feeling at the moment about it all. I want to do it, but then I am scared of the outcome if it is bad ..... and I don't want to m/c again.

    Needing positive vibes....

    Hi Sue - I am sending you massive amounts of positive vibes as well as some baby dust. I really hope all goes well tomorrow and we hear some wonderful news in the not too distant future.

    I have another Ob appointment tomorrow followed by the GD test. DH and I have both taken the day off work so hopefully if I don't feel sick we will have the afternoon to do something fun (or sleep which is the most fun thing I can think of at the moment!).

    Hi to everyone! Where is everyone TTC at with their cycles? I hope you are all doing ok and taking care of yourselves.

    Madison Rose is such a beautiful name. I hope you are coping ok Jo.

    Good luck Sue. I'm sending a ton of positive vibes!!

    I'm doing ok today. well not really, but I don't have much to complain about in the scheme of things, although AF has shown herself .

    I'm thinking about putting TTC on hold for a while. Since my cervix is incompetent, they'll be putting a stitch in as soon as I hit 12 weeks the next time we're pg, and I'll be on pretty much complete bedrest. I'm getting more and more terrified about being dependant on others and not enjoying being pregnant as much as I'd hoped. I could do without the days where I feel like this.

    I hope all you ladies are going well today.

    8Weeks - I hope you are ok and I am sorry to see that AF has reared her ugly head. Only you and your DH will know when the right time to TTC is. I know someone else mentioned (I think Rozzie but I could be wrong) that sometimes time can increase the fear level. I know my sister who had 2 late losses told me this exact thing when I was doing it tough with the constant spotting after the D&C. She told me that they had allowed too much time to pass since their last angel baby and that fear had made it almost impossible to move forward with the idea of TTC. I really took it to heart and kept on going, even though at times it seemed like the scariest thing in the world (let's face it - it still does seem scary). Look after yourself and just take the time you need.

    Katie and Sue... good luck and I'm crossing everything for happy news! We need some on this board after poor Jo's sad loss.

    Jo... I think of you all the time and hope that you are finding the strength you need to get through.

    8 weeks... DH and I are having second thoughts about ttc at the moment as well. AF arrived for me yesterday (we weren't ttc last cycle anyway) and I had been really looking forward to it as it is my second since we lost Charlie and my OB said to wait 2 complete cycles. We had initially planned to start ttc next month (we are going on a long overdue holiday and thought it would be a good time). I worked out that my EDD would be Charlie's birthday and thought that would be nice. But now I'm not so sure. I have just started getting my physical strength back and am also starting a new job in October. We have has such a rough couple of years with the MC and then losing Charlie and I am kind of looking forward to taking it easy for a few months. I feel a bit guilty though however i want to be as strong and rested as possible for this next baby so that I will hopefully be able to get some peace of mind during the pregancy that I have done everything I could to give this baby a good chance of surviving to full-term. My OB says I've got nothing to worry about next time round but that's much easier for him to say than for me to do!

    Anyway, I just thought it might help to knwo that you aren't the only one who is still struggling a bit with the ttc decision. Good luck with whatever you decide and keep us posted with your progress.

    Recommendations for an accupuncturist

    Hello

    Just hoping someone might be able to recommend a reputable accupuncturist specialising in fertility in the Illawarra or South Sydney area.

    It might be a stretch, but hoping they may be able to assist with egg quality.

    Thanks for any help
