    Hi girls,

    well this is about the tenth time ive typed everything and hopeful I will hit send rather then delete! Ive been reading through catching up boy you guys can post.

    Spring Im so so happy for you even though you are not getting to excited im think im doing it for you, big for you both and I hope your move is a smooth one. Thank you for you wonderful words when I lost the plot it made me feel.....well it made me feel good inside thank you once again.

    Lynn I glad to hear your feeling a little better today I hope it continues im sure it will as Cooper is with you, helping you through your rough days.The garden sounds like its comming along I would love to see a photo when your done, if you dont mind that is. The angel magnet was just........beautiful.

    Kirsty Im glad that you got some answers. I have had different levels through out my seven years of trying, some being very high to just inside norm limits, some Drs say that after pregnancy there can be higher but my specialist said that he was going to treat me for + anyway it can't hurt so I have both clexcane and asprin. Good luck with your test and have a great night away wish DH a big happy birthday, mine is 40 this year and he wants to do the big party a night away sounds great.

    Jo I was so sorry to hear of all your angel babies it must be so hard for you at the moment. Good luck with everything.

    Clare Lots of ++++thoughts your way for the scan on wed. Its all going to be good.

    Mel Thank you for your support and kind words, you girls sure know how to make me feel better. As for weight gain Ive put on 8kilos since starting pred. so I know what you mean Ive lost a little but have a long way to go, while I was pregnant with DS I put on 8kilos and lost the lot but once we started IVF etc etc I have put on a massive 18kilos!!! I also have pcos which adds to the problem, but when we finish all our baby stuff I will do lots more. At the moment I do 4-5 gym classes a week and walk once a week, we watch what we eat and still it creeps on!!! boy I would be the size of a whale if I dnt do anything mind you when pregnant I only walk 2-3 times a week that all im allowed! It will come off it just takes time......seems like everyhting in life it takes time!

    Deb How are you? are you back and did you have a great time?

    To anyone else hope you are all good and well once Ive caught up on all the post I write if Ive missed you.

    Me........well beside a small breakdown, I think I totally lost the plot, I was trying so hard to stay + BUT it just was not working. Thnak god for wonderful husbands im not sure that I would have coped. Its seems that every other time I was pregnant and lost my babies there was a light at the end of the tunnel that is there was something else we could try next time. But this time even though we can increase meds and add somethings I still know in the back of my head that we might be at teh end of the line and where else is there to go.........and this is really hard to deal with, my whole thing of beening a women and giving birth once more was beening questioned. So I have to deal with this which Im happy to say is a little clear after a number of appoinment with my "head Dr" . We have also made some strong decisions and that is to give next month one more go at getting pregnant, if this is not a goer then surrgacy is our option and something we are looking into at the moment......People have many differant reactions but we have spoken to a councillor and think we should be able to cope. If anyone has any info I would love to hear it. So I would just love to thank you all for your wonderful words of support for me when I was in my darkest times, You dont know how much you all helped me through and I only hope I can be there for you if you ever need it.

    I did mean what I said about wishing you all the very very best in this year and I dearly would love to see you all holding your babes in arms soon So if you would still have me I would love to continue with you all. xxx

    Ps sorry about the long post

    Hey everyone,

    Dream - I'm glad you had the support of your husband and I hope that you are feeling a little bit better and positive about trying for another bubby. I truely hope that you get your BFP next month - you deserve it so much. In terms of surrgacy, I don't know anything about it and therefore can't give you advice only to say that I know what it is like to want a baby and if this is an option for you - then go for it! Wishing you all the best.
    I would love to show you Cooper's garden when it is finished. Thank you for asking to see it.
    I would love for you to stay on this thread and let us know how you go next month with TTC. Hopefully there will be BFP all round.

    Hope everyone else is ok - it was pretty quiet here yesterday.

    Well for me, I had a mixed day yesterday. I think I told you a friend that lives down the road had a baby - well DH saw her DH at the servo yesterday morning and her DH said to mine happy new year and my DH said happy new year and congratulations (on the birth of their baby). He just said thanks and that was it. I got so upset when my DH was telling me - I said to him, did he not even say sorry for your loss or how are you holding up. Cooper was born, I want him to be acknowledged. He is my boy and it upset me that he didn't even say anything about him. I know that people find it hard to say things but you can at least say you are sorry for our loss to show that you care and acknowledge him. DH said that I shouldn't let things like this worry me but it is hard not to. Just because Cooper is not physically here with us, he is in my heart and dreams and he should not be forgotten and ignored by other people.

    What brightened up my day was seeing Cooper's star (Cooper has a star registered in his name in the Southern Cross constellation). We could see the Southern Cross easily last night and you can even see the fifth star which is sometimes hard to see. The Southern Cross is getting higher in the sky so the city lights aren't drowning it out as much. Anyway, we looked through the telescope and we could see his star (it is just next to the fifth star). I pretended that I could see him on the star and that he was waving at me. It made me cry but for once I think they were happy tears. My baby boy is shining bright and watching over me - love you Coopie, forever in my heart and dreams.

    Hi everyone,

    Well where are you girls, I know spring is moving but ..... I hope the rest of you are all well and good.

    Lyn Im sorry that your neighbour was like that, I understand when you say you want people to acknowledge Cooper, but I found that the more I talk about my babies and what Ive been through(not everything) just what they need to know, then people seem to feel more comfortable about asking questions or talking about it with me, I agree that people dont know what to say and something simple would be better then nothing but human nature I think makes us this way unless we have been through an experience like you or I have.

    I have to go my neighbours husband just came in his wife just miscarried. I'll post later.
