Spring - Have a nice time in Brissy, pity we missed each other by a couple of days. But oh well thems the breaks.
Deb - I cannot believe I was in your area and didnt catch up I am so disappointed, how great would that have been? We were in Maleny on Monday and OMG the fog was absolutely amazing, we could barely see more than 10m in front of us and we couldnt see the street signs until we were right on them. We ended up stopping at this really nice restaurant for a coffee, it was just near the turn off to the cheese factor which took us like an hour to find LOL. My friend and I have said we want to go back at some stage, we especially want to go to Eumundi markets, so next time I will definitely keep you in mind.
Lynn - I am so sorry you are feeling so flat today I understand how easily those positive thoughts can turn negative, but please dont give up hope yet. As you know I had not one symptom except for a missed period when I was pg with Nicholas. What is it with AF being due on our boys 6 month birthdays - remember mine came on that day as well. I remember how hard it was and I so hope you dont have to go through that, I am keeping all digits cross for great results on Monday. I know it is hard, but try to remain positive - you have more than good chances. And the question about how much can one person take... I ask myself that all the time, and each month that goes by feels like the load is heavier to carry but there has to be a light at the end of the tunnel eventually
Bailey - Gotta love GI Joe LMAO! Will reply to your email in a min.
Klee - I am sorry you are having a rough day, I hope your headache goes really soon. I saw Maria's post, hopefully she will come in and say hi to everyone. I am so glad she found BB.
Tess - Congrats on great results.
Well I have lost track of where I am at now so I will just say a big hi to everyone else and I hope you are all doing great.
I started my next temp assignment today and I absolutely HATED it It is in a public hospital and everyone there is so slack, they all just sat around talking ALL day and I worked my little (or big LOL) butt off! I was so not happy, and they were not prepared at all for a temp. My printer wasnt working and I had to get it working myself cause noone had any idea what they were doing. They tried to help me, but hindered me more than anything. One of the ladies tried to tell me that I shouldnt started the names of medications with a capital letter - WTF??? Which school did they go to??? And the worst bit is that one of the ladies daughter is booked in for a caesar in a couple of weeks and I heard nothing but her going on and on and on and on about this damn baby all day! Her daughter had an appointment with the anaesthetist and I swear you would think she was having open heart surgery the way she was carrying on - ringing her every 5 mins to check if she was going ok. And she said that in the time she is on leave (which I am covering her for) she is going to bring the baby in to meet everyone! OMG what have I done in this life to keep being put through this crap? The only good thing is that she was so wrapped up in herself she didnt ask if I had any children - probably a good thing for her because I had decided that if she did I was going to tell her the truth, and maybe then I wouldnt have to listen to it. Anyway, the agency is going to try to get someone to replace me cause I just cant be in a place where it is like that.
Anyway, I guess it didnt help that I started my day with a BFN I guess I can write this month off considering I am due for AF Saturday. I have no symptoms and I am starting to feel those "bowel" symptoms you get just prior to AF (I think Klee may have eluded to them earlier), life sucks! This will be 8 months that we have been TTC now - what more can we do? Why is it so hard to fall? I am becoming increasingly frustrated and angry about life and I am sick of being unhappy all the time!
On that cheery note I guess I will go now.
Take care everyone,
Mel

Mel: hun, you just seem to be confronted with self obsessed pregnant women at each job you go to. That must be so hard. I can't imagine the way you must have felt inside hearing that lady go on about her c-section. Good on you for maintaining composure. That was a very strong thing to do.
About the BFN, I know it isn't much comfort but with Harry I didn't get a BFP until a week after AF was due so don't give up yet. I can't imagine how hard it must be for you after 8 months, it is so unfair, there is no reason why this is happening to you. All I can do is send you a big warm and let you know that you are doing everything you can. Don't forget, if AF does show up, you have a plan for this month so just keep focused on that babe. I hope you are feeling a bit better today. I really really just want to reach out to you and give you a cuddle. Take care of yourself honey, we are all here for you.
Lynn: I won't lie to you, 6 months is a shocker. Just yet another of those damn milestones. I found that the day before was harder, I guess I got so worked up about it the day before that I got some of the sorrow out of my system. I hope that you don't get AF on Cooper's 6 month birthday, infact I hope you don't get AF for at least the next 8 months. Don't feel too down about the lack of symptoms, you have so many drugs in your system at the moment that they are probably masking any subtle symptoms that may be there anyway. I know that this TWW has been the longest ever but you are getting there babe and before you know it, it will be over and I have everything crossed that at the end of this TWW you will be met by a BFP.
Deb: I posted to you in the Pregnancy thread but I just wanted to say that you will do wonderfully today babe. Only 2 hours to go until you see darling little Col with that strong heartbeat. Be easy on yourself, this is a tough road and you are doing amazingly.
Bailey: Oh now now, there are still 2 games left so I am sure we will let you win one so that you don't feel too bad (He He). How are you going babe? Is it sinking in? I don't know much about the process at your hospital, but at the Westmead, they consider you high risk purely because you have had a stillborn baby before. Even if this pregnancy is textbook. It is good in a way because you get extra attention after the birth, counselling, Lactation consultants who get to know you, private tours of the ward, so check out with your hossy if they do the same type of thing. Even though I am going as a private paitent, those services are provided by the public hossy.
Tess: whoo hoo on those awesome results. That is just wonderful news. I am so happy for you at the moment.
Klee: what a wonderful workmate you have. Perhaps a nice idea would be to write a little thank you card to her from you and Phoebe. Perhaps now she will realise that she can talk to you about your daughter and that it is ok to be sad about her. Sending you vibes this month.
JLK: Great to hear that you will shortly be on the TTC wagon. I also understand not wanting a baby to be born around Storm's due date. That is going to be a tough time so I think you are doing what is right for you.
AustraJoey: I haven't been to a S&K meeting but from what the other ladies tell me it is like BB in person. Just people telling their story, getting support and realising they aren't alone. I think it sounds like a really good idea so perhaps you should look further into it.
well I really hope I haven't missed anyone. If I have sending huge your way.
I am at my sister's house, I had a really good sleep which was nice. About to head off to catch up with friends. I'll pop in when I can. Posted about Lil Spring in the pregnancy thread.
Take care my sweets and here is an extra sprinkle of for all of you.
Lv Spring
Ps. Deb: I tried to go back and read the last few posts in the closed thread and it wouldn't let me, Not sure if this is usual. Of course don't worry about it today, I just though I'd let you know.
Tommysmum: I must have just missed you. If you are hungry girl, get eating. The beauty of everyone being asleep is that you can have first breakfast now, and then second breakfast when they wake up
