Hi Girls,
Megan, sending you big hugs hun :hug:. I am so glad your mum gave you such good advice to see your little girl, as if you didn't, you might have really regretted it later. No matter what our babies looked like, they were our precious babies, and we love them no matter what. I also think they are beautiful no matter what. There is always going to be something we would have done differently, but isn't that true for a lot of things after we've done them ? I'm so glad you got to hold your precious little girl. I held Joshua for a few minutes but I also wish I could have held him for a lot longer. I also regret not having him with us in the room overnight, but it's too late now and I can't change things. I'm just so glad I held him and cuddled him and gave him heaps of kisses. He will always will be my precious little angel.
PS Good luck for you test hun, hope it's a BFP ! Bring it on !!!!
Jo76, I'm so sorry that your're feeling so bad ATM, big hugs hunni. We all get those days, hey ? When I feel like that, I try and think of other people so much worse off than me and I feel better straight away. But remember, it's OK to feel like that sometimes, you are human like the rest of us ! BTW, I have tried accupuncture, and it really doesn't hurt. I don't mind needles, abut I also don't like them that much LOL, but they are so fine you don't even feel them going in. I just had my 19 staples taken out this mornig and I was literally ****ting myself, but it didn't hurt at all. It's official, I am a big wuss.
Paula, I'm so excited for you for tomorrow ! I bet you won't sleep a wink tonite. Great signs so far ! Please, please BFP for you for tomorrow !!
Hi Diana hun, had the staples taken out this morning, wasn't as bad as I thought..you must be looking forward to the Gold Coast now, I love the place ! When do you leave ?
Gotta finish here girls, tummy is telling me to go fo a lie down. Big hugs and kisses to all my beautiful friends xxx
PS Thank you girls for sharing your stories about your beautiful precious little babies. My heart goes out to you :grouphug: you are all very special girls xx

MrsRobbo, I'm going to have to read that poem when I get home! Four lines into it and I was already welling up. It describes our angels so well.
I've got all my fingers crossed for your BFP tomorrow!! Hopefully you'll know during saturday morning so I can have a quick sticky beak before I go away for the long weekend! ;)
We still haven't done anything for Jayvan yet, his ashes sit on our dressing table with his little teddy. I think I might just keep him there for now.
Jo, you're allowed as many feel sorry for yourself days as you can have!! One of those icecreams does sound quite good though. I hope you enjoy your fish and chips (or shark and tadies as my DF calls them :p) with your DS at the park!
Berry1, Seems there is something that everyone regrets when our bubs were born. I think we just have to remember we did the best we could under the circumstances we were all put in.
AFM. DF and I came to the agreement last night that we are going to let nature take it's course over the next couple of months, just have fun with each other and see what heppens. If I fall pg, well then bonus.. If I'm not in the next 3 months then we'll start counting days (because you know, I won't be counting at all before then). I feel alot calmer now I have an actual 'controlable' plan instead of floating in limbo!
And on a more pleasent note, we are gonig on a miniholiday for the long weekend with my fam for mums birthday (which is australia day) It will be so good to get away! To bad I'll be up to CD14 when I'm sharing a small caravan with my parents... but, you know.. I'm not counting or anything :rolleyes:

Hello Ladies,
Paula, that poem was so beautiful, but so sad, it made me cry! I am so praying for a BFP for you tomorrow :pray: Are you sure that its been long enough to get a BFP? Like me you only O'd 12 days ago today. I thought it had to be a least 14-days for your hormone levels to be high enough, but I did notice on FF that some people did get BFP's under 14 days so I'm a bit confused about that.
We were going to wait until Monday to be sure that we don't get a false positive, as I'd be so disappointed, but have now started to think maybe Sunday and I think if you get a BFP tomorrow Paula, it will be too much for me, I may have to test :D
Teagz, sounds like a good plan. As you know its so easy to get really stressed about ttc, so if you know in your mind your just 'seeing how things go' and just enjoying life for a couple of months, you'll be much more relaxed.
Beata, glad that those staples are now out and you can start healing. Do you know how long you have to wait until you get the ok to ttc again? You'll be joining us in no time.
Jo, I hope you enjoyed your fish and chips and ice-cream, sounds yummy! and that you are feeling a little better.
Helen, if you haven't left already, have a wonderful long weekend away. You will be fine, so don't stress and enjoy yourself.
My mum did have a hard time having kids and I appreciate more now just what she did go through. She also had 3 m/c, so took her a while to have my sister, but in the end had 4 children, with the last two being twins so there is hope :D
AFM, I got the first blood test results back from the geneticist today. They checked my and DH's chromosomes and again all normal (we did get them checked while I was pg) but as Jasmine had a fatal heart condition they checked our Chromosome 22 which can have defects effecting the heart, which were both normal as well. So she said that there is no reason why the next pg shouldn't be normal. They are doing one further test on Jasmine's DNA which is apparently very specialised to see if the mosacism and the heart condition were linked, which we think it was, but have no evidence to support. Like you Teagz, I am also still waiting for her autopsy results, we have the prelimenary one which confirmed her heart condition, but the full results won't be out for I think another 2-months. I was told a min of 6-months in NSW as only one hospital does it.
Anyway, Paula, I am going to be on here first thing in the morning. Thinking of you.
Have a great long weekend girls.

Berry. Jesus 6 months! That would kill me I think.
The reason Jayvan had died was because his internal cavity had filled with fluid.. we are still waiting on tests for genetics & the reason why that may have happened
Just thought i would put that out there incase anyone had heard of that sort of thing happening before :)

How exciting for you Megan and Paula !!!!!! I am sitting here in anticipation chewing my nails off hoping for our very next couple of BFPs !! Thinking of you girls and crossing all my fingers and toes for you :crossfingers: Bit of excitement here lately hey ?
Who else is testing soon BTW ???
Megan, I have to wait 3 months so the uterus is healed and then we're gonna do the frozen bub transfer in May I hope. I'm going back to my OB in 5 weeks so we can start the ball rolling with the usual blood tests etc, so I'm all ready for when it's go go time!
B xx

:leap::leap::leap::clap::clap::dance::dance:
WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!
Ooh and going by your chart and the BD action, a girl might be in production...
-
You bugger! I had to check before we left, YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can now go and have my weekend in peace and come back to Megan testing on Monday for another BFP fix! No pressure or anything! Here's to a safe and healthy pregnancy.
-
Oh, I just looked at your chart, and I agree with Jo, my money is on girl!

:jawdrop:
:cheer::cheer::cheer:
OMG, as if I could see that and not comment. Congrats Paula! I knew you would get a BFP this month. I was thinking just this morning that if you get a BFP, then Megan and add Theresa's and there's three in just this month. What a fantastic month!
And hello to all my lovely friends. Thank you for everyone who sent messages - you are all very sweet and caring. I am doing OK. Still riding my rollercoaster of craziness but I was planning on leaving my job and they're negotiating with me to stay so that's been occupying me somewhat.
Monday is the start of the lunar new year so we thought we'll be well and truly out of 2008 by the next cycle and can start TTC-ing... again.
A friend gave me a serve of "wake the **** up" last week. She asked if I want another baby and I said yes of course. She asked if we're trying and I said no. So she said "Well then you don't want a baby because that's what your actions imply." She's right you know, I have a frallion (a new word I learnt off Dilbert) reasons why I can't TTC but at the end of the day that's not going to get me a baby .I'm trying to align my body, my mind, the stars, the sun, the moon into the perfect place before I can say I"m ready but I bet none of you guys who are pregnant now felt 100% ready when you conceived. Right?
Anyhoo, we're driving down to Berry today so now might be a good time for me to shower and get dressed. Ha ha. Smelly Lan!
Have a lovely long weekend, and Paula, can you rub your tummy into your computer so I can catch some of your BFP vibes :lol:
Oh Jo76, someone gave me the Chinese horoscopes for this year and it's a great year for people born in 1976 (year of the dragon). Good health, good wealth, a career change and amazingly.... children! I've got the file saved at work so if you want it, I"ll email it to you on Tues. Yay for dragons!

Paula, congratulations :dance: :dance: :dance: that is such great news and I am so happy for you. I hope you have a great pregnancy and hold this beautiful bub in 9-mths. :happyforyou:
Things aren't looking so great for me. I have had what I think is m/s for the past 3-days and BB are big + temps have stayed up, so thought things were looking good. Last night I got a strong 'pulling' like feeling (felt diff to af pains) so I layed down for a while. I either got AF this morning or it could be a m/c, not sure yet. Its the strong m/s that has thrown me off. My temp is still up this morning, but can that happen when AF comes does anyone know? :(
Paula, I don't want to take away from your excitement I think it truly great news and am glad that at least one of us has a BFP. I know my time will come. Enjoy your w/end with you GF. :hug:
-
PAULAA!!!! YAY!!!! :dance:
I came on first thing to see your BFP and I'm glad I did! I have goosebumps!!!
Congrats :D xx
DF and I did the math last night and if all goes well we'll get to test on valintines day :) fingers crossed! So far I'm thinking this thread may be lucky ;)
And Berry, I used to get pulling/stretching feelings with Jayvan early on.. I'm not sure about the temp though when AF comes, sorry love. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you over the l/weekend though
-
Yeepee !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Paula, huge congratulations hun !!!!!!!:happyforyou: I am so so excited for you, that's just awesome news ! Wishing you a happy and healthy 40 week pregnancy (and a boring one at that !). Our power dropped off this morning in the middle of my post to you, and then I had to wait an hour to do it again !
Megan hun, I can't say I can help you with the pulling feeling, but I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for you and hoping for a good result on Monday. The bleeding might not be AF so praying that it's just something to do with implantation. Fingers and toes and whatever else I can sross is crossed for you hun :crossfingers::goodluck:
All my love and huge hugs
Beata xxxooo

:dance::dance::dance::leap::happyforyou::hooray::h ooray: CONGRATULATIONS PAULA! How absolutely fabulous, and even more so with your GF there with you. I am so very happy for you. Wow 2 in one month, this thread is on fire!
Here is too Megan making it number 3 :pray:
Megan, I also can't offer any advice but I am praying so hard it's a little implantation bleeding or something. I won't be able to check up on you until Thursday so I hope I come back to some great news. Everything is crossed hun.
