I'm doing good, Helen! :) I changed my mood to "mellow" like yours, because I think that's a good description. I'm home sick from work, as I decided to give myself the whole week, what with a cold or virus of some sort mixed with the m/s and all that jazz. The house is a total mess and neither DH or I feel like cooking. But that's all okay! So, we've got a waiting period now to see if Helen gets a BFP? We'll hope for the best!
Is Sue really going to be gone for 2 weeks now? Trying to keep us in suspense? :)
Rozzie, I'm so very happy about the good news! One worry down, and only like 250 to go... I don't know what to say about your EDD. Have you talked to your DH about it? What does he think? I'm not good with that kind of thing, and I think it's because the system & way I've been treated here has not really allowed me to think of my baby as real or important in the same way. I'm afraid I'm going to just push down all my emotions about the EDD because no one else will give a damn. So I think probably the most important is that it's something both you and DH want to do. Sorry, don't mean to sound all selfishly negative :(
Lan -- my sister-in-law has 6 kids. And get this -- there are exactly 19 months between all of them (with the exception of 10 years between numbers 4 and 5 because it was two different marriages). Every one of them, in other words, worked out exactly as planned. So I'm familiar with the feeling you're expressing -- why couldn't I just have one go off without a hitch!
Jo -- I hope your bleeding calms down. So many strange things happen to our bodies when we're TTC and pregnant and have given birth, and we're all so different, it's hard to know what's normal and what's not. In my opinion, if you're debating whether to ask your doctor or not, always ask your doctor. Here's a *hug* from up north.
Oops, have to change my signature... DH turned 31 yesterday.

Hello Again,
Hammi, I really think that people with many kids and no complications are a rarity these days. Its amazing how many people have told me of their losses (that were never mentioned previously) now that I've lost Alex. There are so many out there.
Tildy - Its so hard having a cold when pregnant and you can't take anything. Rest up - leave the cleaning and order in the takeaway!
Jo -Hope you are OK. I've been thinking of you a lot over the last couple of days.
Katiegirl - thanks for asking. I'm actually doing quite well. I'm going to counselling and have minimised my commitments. So I have a lot less stress and more time for healing at home with the family. Everything else can wait until I get it back together.
Rozzie - I haven't had to face the EDD but a friend of mine said that when her son's EDD came around following her loss, she just had a day out on a drive with her partner. She said it was nice just to have some peaceful time together.
Hope everyone else is well.
Danek

Thank god it's Friday.
:grouphug: to you all.
Roz, you'll know how you and DH want to spend Edward's EDD. Don't stress about having to actually do anything. I didn't but it was such a lovely sunny day with clear blue skies, I felt that Hamish was smiling down on me and giving me permission to move forward. Take care of yourself :hug:
Special :hug: for Jo. Always in my thoughts.
:bellyrubs:for my favourite mamas, Katie, Tildy and Roz.
:pink-babydust::bluedust: for Helen. I hope September is your month for a :bfp:
Work has been crazy, I'm taking my tired self to lie on the couch and watch mindless movies.
