I just wrote a really long post and the moderator closed the thread and I lost it all !
Beata, enjoy the bbq in Joshua's memory tonight. I hope you get through the day ok and as Teagz said, we are all on standby for you. I hope your friends and family bring you much comfort and support x
Teagz, I hope and pray you get that lovely birthday gift! Your plans for V day sound lovely. Enjoy!
Berry, copythe FF link and post your chart on here like Paula did and then the FF experts can give you some advice. As for your thoughts about m/s last month, it may have been hun but unfortunately you will never know now. I hope and pray this is your month
Hi Jo, I am so happy to see your ticker moving forward - it really warms my heart each time I see it. Have a lovely Valentines day doing up the nursery. Couldn't think of anything nicer I'd rather do.
Dee, good luck for your transfer. I hope IVF brings us our much longed for BFP this month
DH & I don't normally do anything for V day as he spoils me often anyway so I have forbidden him to buy me anything on that day. Girls, he often goes shopping and buys me clothes with accessories to match! He is such a gem, and he loves his labels so no complaints here!
Beata, huge hugs again.

Just wanted to say thanks for your info. I will check out this fertility friend today. I started back at work on Monday and its making a big difference.
Also, I thought I would share some advice I was given and it appears to be helping mentally. I exercise every day now (I run about 2kms) and I read a positive affirmation every day. I know that sounds really lame but they say that chemically we need the right balance of endorphins and serotonin so my bumming around the house and watching sex and the city wasn't really helping. Now I'm back at work, exercising and we'll see how that goes.
Here is an affirmation for everyone - if nothing else, I hope it makes today just a little nicer.
[I trust that everything comes at the perfect time and in the perfect way.
The universe works in perfect ways. It always serves my higher good.[/I]
Here is to heaps of exercise, happy thoughts and happy minds and then hopefully the happiest outcome of all! (Lets see if I still feel like this in about 21 days he he).
Beata hun, you know my love and thoughts are with you and your family today, you will know when the time is right for you, if ever, to release Joshua's ashes. My candle for you all is still burning and you know I have you in my thoughts and prayers as always.
Sorry for the lack of other personals, just popped in to send Beata my love.
Hi everyone! Been a little MIA, sorry, am finding it better for my sanity at the moment if I am not checking on here everyday. Not that you girls are bad for it! I guess it is all part of the journey.
Hi to Joselyn and I hate to say it but welcome back Nae, our journey's are tough ones and the women here are an endless support network.
Beata - I can't let go of Cooper's ashes, I recently told DH that when I die, I would like to have my ashes put together with Cooper's. I never new if I wanted to be cremated but making that decision was a huge relief even though I don't plan on going ANYWHERE near dead for a LONG LONG time! You will know what is right for you and your family.
We passed a huge milestone yesterday, Cooper was born at 23+5days which was the gestation I was at yesterday. I am very relieved to be past it but even more relieved to be almost past that 24wk mark. One of the daycare women this morning said to me 'wow haven't you just popped out!' I just feel really awkard being publicly excited, but I am getting better.
Sending positive vibes to everyone, esp Laney and Cindee, has anyone heard if Cindee has had her bub? I checked on facebook yesterday but nothing.
Gotta go am trying to clean out cupboards to send things to the fire appeal.
Hi guys... just wanted to say that with this pg lady, it is true that no news is good news. The reason for the no news is that I'm so physically exhausted and in so many different kinds of pain that I'm falling to bits -- I'm planning on going to my boss today (it's currently 3 am and I'm awake already!) and pleading for mercy to start maternity leave earlier than I originally stated. But everything is tip-top with Kebab, and that's what counts.
I have been doing okay. Taking it one day at a time. I haven't been able to sleep very well at night so I have to nap during the day. I am just very tired all day. Bub is wiggling most of the day, not too many quiet days so far. It is a new experience for me. Parker and Shelby were too sick to wiggle very much. This baby is now about the size Shelby was when she was born, hard to believe. I have another ultrasound on Monday to check growth. I can't believe it has been another 2 weeks already. It is strange but even with all of the good ultrasounds I am still very nervous.
It is good to hear that most of the ladies in here have been doing well. A good silence.
Everyone at my DF's work called DF "Duck" because his middle name is Donald.
It's tradition up there for everyone to get given a stupid nick name, and most of the time some of the guys don't even know a person's real name!
So, this is how Jayvan was known as "duckling" or "duckette" (in case he was a girl) when he was still in my belly. Which meant that he got a lot of duck stuffed toys, bibs with ducks on them, clothes. When he was born mum got him teddy with his name embroided on it with a picture of a duck underneith and DF SIL got me a little duck pendant to hang from a necklace to honour him.
So the reason I'm venting this is because DF younger sister has just called me to ask if it was ok to buy duck things for our next bubby, and now I'm in a funk and can't keep back the lump in my troat!
It's reminded me of everything and I don't think I want my next bubby to have ducks, they were Jayvans! How horrible does that sound!?
A crap day or moment can just hit you like a tone of bricks, can't it? I feel like a child sometimes when I whine about how unfair this situation is
