Hi Sue - if the others are happy for me to stay here...than I can't see why you can't. Join the Preg after Recurrent and Late Loss thread as well. I am in that one too, as is Tildy etc. I have not joined the BellyBuddy group for exactly the same reason you mentioned. I swing between getting annoyed by peoples' naivete or jealous of it...all at the same time. I just don't feel I could be open with other women who have not dealt with a loss like mine (or yours in terms of recurrent). I feel more comfortable in this part of the forum with other women who have the same anxieties. I think you will find that most women in the TTC after recurrent, late and stillbirth never move over to the Bellybuddy - which is why we have the pregnancy thread.

Paula - would love to hear about Dunk Island. I am sure it was amazing and relaxing.

Lan - sorry to hear Melbourne has such terrible connotations for you. Maybe next time you visit, we can catch up.

Helen - I would also book the holiday. You might find by 20 weeks that you need a break. I was away with work when I hit the 20 week mark, but I had already had the big scan at 19 weeks and I was having regular movement so that helped keep me sane. Move forward with the belief that all will be well and this baby is strong and a fighter.

Jo - how is work going? I hope the nights are starting to prove a little easier.

Tildy - I also read about your bleed and I just wish you didn't have this extra stress, especially with your DH away. I hope all is well and you get good news from the dr again. Please let us know how you are doing.

I woke at 3:45 yesterday and stayed awake until 10:30pm...it is amazing that now I have finished work I bounce out of bed in the morning! Definitely psychological. Hi to all I have missed.
