    O lynn, thats fantastic isnt it!!!I dont know much about measurements, but both sides firing, you may well be up to a very good weekend. Im very sorry to hear what you are going through, have been through a very similar situation, and I coped very badly!! big huge hugs.
    Spring angel... O my goodness, I cannot believe step FIL deleted your personal from the heart letter....I think your attitude is bang on!! they are just not worth it! I hope you can focus on you and lil spring and all your good friends and DH of course...
    Deb, Im on cd22... in the 2ww, one week to go, dont feel anything, infact for the first time in along time havent really put the focus into everything like I normally do... but this time next week I will know one way or another... sigh. How you doing? when is your testing day, did you get the results from your prog level test.... not sure If I have missed it in a post... If I have sorry!

    well big hi to everyone else, O and in answer to what is a hikoi, its a term for journey where eveyone comes together, and where possible you walk... and walk we did and in this case we walked for all the starving people/children around the world. Yes it was very moving, over 1000 people all came together. Over 500 were children and they all sat in silence and ate a rice meal. My 2 girls age 10 and 11 took part! they did ok.I have no doubt repeated myself..oops sorry
    Chow for now

    Deb Babies, birthdays and maybe a BFP.....I do hope so much that you get it this month, you and I are so much alike I hope that the "I dont think it happen" turns out to be OMG it did. You know your body so well that sometimes it would be better to not know so much but Im still sending all my +++++vibes to you girls this month. Have you got the BT results yet?

    Spring Your email was wonderful so stright to the point but in a good way, I hope step FIL will let her read it if not talk to her and let her know how things are. do you feel that a weight has been lifted? Great news on lit spring dancing around in there.... I couldnt be happier for you.

    Well my Nans was ok, I made my girlfriend come with me, but it was very strange, she has an 18month old and when we were sitting on the lounge he was standing up lookin over the back to the kitchen and playing peak a boo and laughed with somebody.......I dont know but it freaked us out! I did feel a little comfort thinking that maybe she was still around......it was sort of nice in a weird way. I hope you all stay well and the BFP fairy is sending out her magic dust to you all.....I need some good news girls "come on"!!!!! I will try and get back later. Lots of hugs and luv to you all Nat xxx

    Ok I need some help here!

    Got results back from my BT this morning and it has gone down again! I am trying to stay positive in that it is only CD20 and last month I o'd on CD26. But I am just confused???? Deb or Nat can you tell me if this is normal or if my levels should be rising by now. The nurse that gave me the results said that my FS is concerned and he wants me to have another BT and u/s on Friday. He said that my body is probably not responding to Clomid I tried to speak with him but he wasn't available so I will call again tomorrow.

    Hi everyone,

    Lynn - How are you today? I have been thinking of you and Cooper all day. How did you find hitting the 4 month anniversay? I don't usually let the dates affect me, but I found that the 4 month was harder than the 3rd month. I don't know why, maybe because I also got AF that day too. I am sorry that your levels are all over the place, but as you said, you ovulate pretty late, so hopefully there is still a chance for this month. How are things with your family?

    Spring - I am sort of shocked about FIL deleting your email. I think that it should be YOUR and DH's feelings that are important here, not hers. Oh well, I agree with what you said, there are more important things and I am glad that you are not going to let it bother you. You have to think of you and Lil Spring at the moment.

    Mel - I am shocked that you are managing to stay away form those test's. I am glad you are though, as if it too early you are just saving yourself disapointment. I have my fingers crossed for you too.

    Nat - My computer is stuffed too. There is something wrong with my drive, so I actually only have half a screen, lol, so I have to re-size everything to fit on the right hand side. I was meant to put it in to get fixed but I can't do without it, so mum is going to take it in while I am away. It was nice to hear that your nan is still around you, I always think that mine is too.

    Hi too to everyone else

    Well, DH (oooh, sounds weird calling him that) has been gone for 2 days now, and I had to take on a couple of his duties today. Picking up dog poop and watering his beloved lawn - though I did it all without a beer in my hand. It's actually quite amazing the stuff that man can do with a can of beer in is hand - who says men can't multi task huh? DS is a little sad though, everytiome he hears the side gate open (DH's brother lives in a granny flat out the back) he thinks it's his dad and runs to grab his little cricket bat and ball, poor bugger. Then I have to remind him that daddy is on holidays. DS says "daddy is in Baaaarley surfing in the pool" Lol.
    I don't feel confident of a BFP this month, I just feel like it's not this time. It has been a little hard to come to terms with it, because I have always thought I would have a baby by this christmas, and I have to let that go now. I think I just really wanted this christmas to be so different to the last one. Last christmas, I wanted to be happy, but it felt so fake. I know you all know what I mean, as I am sure that it was the same for you too. DH and I have been trying so hard to create our own little familt traditions for DS so he can grow up and remember them as things he loved, but I just don;t want him to remember me being miserable and laying on the lounge in a daze crying. So I wanted this one to be different. Oh, I know I am babbleing now, so I will go and come back a little later.

    Hey Lynn: sorry I can't be any help with your levels. All I know is that I am sending every little bit of O vibes I can muster your way. Also, I hope you don't mind adopting my friend and I today. It was such a nice day, I hope we managed to help lift your spirits, if only a little. Ps... I have a belly ache but no surprises there.


    Klee: Babe I think of you and your angel Phoebe every day. How are you feeling? Stupid question I know, but are you feeling anymore constant. In those early weeks I just aimed to feel constant. I hope with all my heart that you are ok. Big :hugs: babe.

    Chelle: you should be very proud of yourself for teaching your children about all the other children in the world who are less fortunate then them. It will make them more tolerant and accepting as they grow into young adults.

    Dream: Welcome back spunk rat, missed you. I am glad that you had a friend with you at your nan's. Don't get too worried about the little boy playing peak-a-boo. I had a whole room of imaginary friends when I was a child. Perhaps there was more to it, and that your Nan's was poping in to check on you, but either way you know she is at peace with your GDad now.

    Mel, Flowerchild, Mrs. Bailey and everyone else, hope you are all ok.

    Well the MIL saga continues. She called again tonight, but I am screening my calls so she only got to speak to Mr. Answering machine. The message was 'I seem to keep missing you, perhaps you are working late or have gone to bed early'. Wake up to yourself, perhaps I don't want to talk to you after almost 6 months. Did that every cross your mind. Spoke to DH and said I didn't want to talk to her. He said leave the answering machine on, hopefully she will get the message soon although she did say she would try again later in the week .

    I feel like a bit of a chicken not answering, but I honestly have nothing to say, and my attempt at resolution was the email which was deleted, so that is it from me.

    Oh well, I am having an early one tonight, I am very tired tonight and have a big few days at work ahead of me. DH isn't home this weekend so I am going to get some girl flicks and spend it on the couch.

    Might hang around for a little while longer but nighty ni to all of you in case I head off soon.

    Sweet dreams and Lynn, hope the seed works but make sure you don't hurt your ear (lol), seriously though, I hope you have a wonderful, peaceful nights sleep.

    Luv Spring

    Bailey, I just missed you hun. Don't give up on this month just yet, it is not over until the witch shows up. How cute is DS with dad surfing in Barrrley pool, that kid is just adorable. I hope you don't get too lonely without your DH but how excited must you be about your honeymoon / sausage sizzle (lol)

    About Christmas, it is a major milestone and I can totally understand why you feel upset and why you want this christmas to be different. I don't know what to say to make it better. I am so very grateful for little Spring but it breaks my heart that such a wonderful supportive bunch of women are being deart such a hard blow month after month. All I can do is tell you that I care about you and send you as much I can muster.

    Thanks Spring, I haven't totally given up on BFP, I just really thought I would have had one last month, and it dodn't work out, so I guess I am just being pessamistic (sp?) Also, because DS and Asha were concieved first go, I was actually pretty shocked. But anyway, it will happen and I have to stop trying to rush it. I am just sitting here bawling. DS was watching TV and there were stars on TV and he turned to me and said "remember the baby lives in the stars?" (I told him that is where our baby is) I said yes and he then said "our baby was sick and had to go live in the stars" I just birst into tears and he said " we can get another baby" (I told him that we would have another baby one day) and then he topped it off with this beauty "We can have Sophie" Lol, Sophie is my cousins little girl. It's so cute the simple way kids see things, but it is so heartbreaking that he doesn't have his little sister here with him. With us. Oh, this is just so sad right now. I am ok, but I just wish none of us were here, I wish we never had to know eachother (I mean that in the nicest possible way, and believe me, I am so glad we do, but you know what I mean) It just sucks!

    Bailey, if only we could view the world with the innocence and simplicity of a child. I just want to reach out and give you a big hug through this screen. You have a very special son who is just processing things in his own beautiful way. I know that you will have your very own little 'Sophie' soon.

    Sleep tight honey.

    Luv Spring

    Good evening lovely ladies, sorry I have been MIA. No excuses here just facing lives little daily battles the best I can.

    Firstly to Lynn, DH and Cooper - sending you big hugs and kisses on your 4 month anniversary. My thoughts and prayers are with you all today. Keep smiling down on your mummy precious boy.

    Bailey - I agree, isn't it amazing how children can just simplify life. They can honestly fix anything in their innocent little minds. He sounds like a real treasure. BTW Happy happy wedding days! Congratulations!

    Spring - well I am totally speechless! Man that took some guts to send that email to MIL and then to have FIL delete it, WTF. Why is he protecting her? They should be trying to protect you and DH right now, not thinking of themselves. GRRR

    Mel and Deb - fingers crossed for those BFP's this month. I truely truely hope you get two nice fat pink lines when you test. When are you girls testing? Or have you already started?

    Ok, so sorry if I have forgotten anyone. But I have ironing to do before I pass out for the night.

    Just a quick update on me and splodge.
    After many anxiety attacks in the past 4 weeks, we have a "reassure the crazy women" scan next wednesday. For those that didn't know, they mixed up our NT scan results putting me in a total spin for weeks, that combined with my darling Max's EDD two days ago has sent many a bad thought reeling through my head. But I have finally found a fabulous GP, who is doing anything she can to provide reasurrance.
    So 7 days until we can find out the answer to the big question, will it be splodge or splogette?

    I promise I wont stay away for too long this time.
    Take care
