Hi ladies

Dory - I have to start with you... I am so hoping that you have a BFP and that explains all of your tiredness and other symptoms and thank you for being so gracious and thinking of how we would feel about the news. You really are an exceptional human being! Good luck hun thinking of you and waiting for more news.

cmeglles - what beautiful photos. The colours remind me of where we live in Australia in autumn, although we don't get snow, except on the mountains nearby. It is hard remembering where we were this time last year isn't it? But then I try to be positive and think about how far I have come in that time, rather than looking back all of the time. I just found that it was too painful for me to do that. So now I am focused on the future and what that will bring for us. How are feeling about being able to TTC again? I know some people have been nervous. I hope this TTC journey is a short one for you.

Beata - 30 weeks - amazing! I remember your BFP announcement and how upset I felt because you and Teagz had both fallen pg. I am a stronger person now and so glad that you have continued to post here. Every successful pg and birth gives me inspiration and hope!

Blessedatlast - hope you're having a great time with your family visiting. You are sounding so upbeat and positive. I have always wondered whether going on some wild rides about the time of implantation would help - I'd give a try if I could find somewhere local

Hi to Gigi1, Aries, Samcougar and everyone else.

AFM, after starting the week with my weird symptoms, they seem to have eased off, so I am still not sure what's going on. I have decided to try to hold off POAS until next week by which time AF will be officially late. I don't see the point of building up hope only to be disappointed with the HPT. I would just rather wait and find out naturally. I find that is easier to deal with and somehow it makes sense in my head - until I change my mind that is and give in
