    Congratulations on your BFP! How exciting. I was starting to wonder how long you were going to make us all wait for you to test.

    so here I was catching up on everyone's posts and thinking it was tomorrow that Theresa was POAS and the whole time her BFP was sitting right there down the list!! I am beside myself with excitement. It seems like so long since we have had a BFP in here that its like the first time all over again. Theresa you have started a new trend in here and all us ttc girls are hot on your tail!! Enjoy your day today and send some of your BFP vibes our way pleeeeeeeeeeeease!!

    Diana: 22 days PG, you go girl. How awesome if you got a BFP pre IVF. We're on a roll in here now so you never know!

    Teagz: First AF is such a confusing time. I can remember how desperate I was just to be PG again straight after I lost Charlie and each AF reminded me that I wasn't. One thing I can say now is that I am still desperate to be PG but having had that bit of time in between has helped me build my confidence about this next pregnancy. I know its a catch 22 but it truly does mean you have at least another month to mend your body and your heart.

    Jo: I am so excited re your psychic session. I do hope you get lots of positive news for us. I'm not sure if I mentioned that I went to see 2 psychics. The second one predicted I would have a boy (first one a girl) and then have a 3rd bub which DH and I have absolutely no plans for. She did say though that I am involved in a support group with other women that is really important to me... at least she was right about that!! Make sure you tell us exactly what she says. Will you get a chance to talk to Jack and Madison? If you do, say hi from all of us xox

    Tildy: what a superstar mum you are. 29 weeks and flying. Sound like you should be the pin up girl for 29 weekers. I was so thrilled to read your post and hear you sounding so positive and confident. Good on you!

    Megan: I know I should know but where are you at with ttc. I feel like I have missed all your updates. Please fill me in. Aren't you around the same time as the rest of us??

    Helen, Jo, Diana, Tildy: re the exams. I finished my law degree so am a lawyer, but I need to get admitted to practice in the Supreme Court. I had to do a total of 5 exams and a few other bits and pieces. I have done 4 with 1 more to go tomorrow. Perfect timing so I can relax and start focusing on growing this bambini which is now 3 days old!!

    Hi to everyone else. Back to the books for me, but will be using this site to procrastinate throughout the day so please post lots of interesting stuff for me to read!!

    Teagz, I am so happy that you feel a little bit better, a good cry always works for me ! It's good to let all the emotions came out every now and then. And I'm so glad you've brought a little outfit for your next bub, I really like the way you think ! Positivity never goes astray !
    PS You really make me laugh when you have a pick at yourself, you are a dag !! Vent all you want hun, this is why we are here !!!!
    I also just wanted to let you know that even though you might not find out what caused Jayvan's chest to fill with fluid, the chances of that exact thing happening again are very remote. I have read something about that in the few books on miscarriages. So now that you're officailly TTC, bring on a BFP fast !!!!!

    Rozzie, fantastic news about your bub ! I know what you mean about not having a VBAC birth, as when I fall pregnant, I will have to have a c section too, as the risk of the uterus bursting is very high. When I told my OB that I am a litle bit disappointed with that, he told me that it's much better to have the c section and a healthy take home bub, than risk the rapture to the uterus and risk the baby's health. Then he said to me, what do you think you had with Joshua ? And suddenly I though, you're right, I did have a natural birth with him which is such a blessing that I was lucky enough to have experienced it. It's just that I was so afraid of the actual labout pains when I first found out I was pregnant, that after Joshua came, I thought to myself, I don't care how long the next labour goes for, or how big the baby is, bring on the pain (with no drugs of course - you probably agree with me that after you lose a baby you think you can put up with just about anything the next time!). As long as my baby is OK, I dont care what I have to endure, at least I can bring home a healthy baby !
    So I am still slightly disappointed that I will probably never experience giving birth naturally to a full term baby, but I know now that I will do whatever is necessary to just have a healthy bub.

    OMG Theresa, I am so happy for you. Oh I wish I had someone to hug right now. I am soooooooooooooooooooooooo happy I don't know what to do with myself.



    I wish you 40 weeks of uneventfulness then a fat screaming baby at the end. Yay!

    I'm at home on a self imposed mental health day today. I've been upset since Monday. Am furious at DH for not understanding what I feel (even though I'm not really sure what I feel that's different to usual). Spent all last night crying by myself and hating everything.

    Had a talk with DH this morning. Actually, more of a shout and cry at each other. Not a good month. Today is CD14, I kind feel anxious to miss an O day but with my mental state, I don't think any sperms will want to hook up with my egg anyway. So I'm going to cease and desist this month and try not to think about TTC-ing (as if!).

    How ironic, I've got my CD on shuffle and it's playing the song we used at Hamish's service. The chorus goes "I'm so hollow. Hollow in my heart. Hollow in my soul. Because I'm so hollow with sorrow..."

    So I think I'm going to go underground from BB for a while in a vain attempt to not think babies all the time. Not sure how long I can stay away from you guys for but I feel I should do something.

    Diana - raincheck our date this Sat until I'm nicer to talk to?

    Love you all.
