Hi Everyone
Sorry I havent been around - had some hassles with my sister and a false alarm (thought I was pg but not!). I actually popped in to see how you were going Mel, I am so sorry! I know how disappointing it is and I remember like yesterday how it felt! Big hugs :hugs: to you and DH - be kind to yourselves and I too am here if you need anything!

I did write a big reply a week ago but like Georgie, went Back and lost everything - oh well, we live and learn!
While I am here:

ShereeJoy-Congratulations !
Klee - What fabulous news - everything will be fine now you'll see! I know this is what everyone says and its almost impossible but - Try to enjoy this pregnancy and if you are having trouble how about writing a diary so you can look back after everything turns out ok and remember all the details about the journey.
Georgie - can I ask which FS you are seeing? We have decided to go back to IVF next month and am trying to decide whether I stay with my current specialist or try someone new?
StarBright - I think we must be related! Not only are our journeys very similar but so are our sisters ! I got really brave after I met Mel and Klee so told her I may not go the the "celebrations" after my 3 nieces are christened in Adelaide in November. She couldnt understand why I might find it upsetting so I explained that 1. Its a christening, 2. there will be lots of babies there (29 kids under 5 will be there) and 3. its the week Ethan was due! She said she would have to think about it because she didnt understand why that would be upsetting"!!! Anyway, I avoided her calls for a week and then my DH and my Mum got on my case about needing to smooth things over. This is the first time in my life I have told her how I feel and I end up being the one who has to give in?? She apparently told my Mum that I had to realise "not everythings about me" and that her other friend who had just lost a baby was coping "so much better than me". I had to call my niece for her birthday last Wednesday so my sister got on the phone and told me she was so happy we were talking because the reason she was so upset that I might not be at the lunch was that they had planned a surpise wedding and wanted me to be Matron of Honour! So it turns out I am expected to pretend I am ok and put my feelings aside so that her day isnt ruined - What The?? So much for not everything being about me - its actually all about her! Not only that but I had lap banding done last year (then got pg so didnt lose much weight) and have just started losing again. She now wants me to buy a new formal frock and high heels for the event! I will never be able to wear it again and the last time I wore heels I was 17 and at a Blue Light disco!!

Anyway enough of my whingeing - love to everyone else - especially Mel!
