    P.S. For those girls who asked to read the poem my DH wrote me for Mother's Day, I have put it in the journal section of Nicholas' web page

    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.

    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

    Hmmmm breakfast doughnuts....
