    Bailey - Huge hugs sweety. Forgot to mention how adoreable your son's comments were. He will bring it up again from time to time and you and DH are doing the best possible thing by following his lead.

    Lynn - I am such a dunderhead... I forgot to mention your friends poem, that is so truely beautiful.. what a blessing to have such a loving and caring friend, words to truely be cherished forever.

    OK not sure how much I'll be around for the next few days. I have a sick DD atm. Nothing life threatening but my darling poppet broke her finger in a cupboard and not to do things by halves she then went and got an infection in the joint and we have had 2 trips to hospital and a sleepover since Sunday. I am at my dad's atm, supposedly to get some sleep while my little sisters watch her but they have put her to sleep and woken me up to cook their dinner, they are 21 and 19 by the way!

    Jo - I am sorry that your DD is sick. I hope she gets better soon and I hope you can get some sleep. I bet you are a great big sister! Big sisters are the best and that includes cooking dinner Don't worry about not mentioning my friends poem before. My brain is like a sieve and I am always forgetting things

    Bailey - of course you did another test!!! lol - you are in the test junkie club! Fingers crossed for you for next week. Wouldn't it be nice to get a BFP on Monday - bittersweet.

    Hi to you all.

    Sorry Jo about Brigid's finger The poor love...
    It's really good to see you in here (I would rather none of us be in here - but you know what I mean)

    LYnn: I am sooooo happy that the FS went so well. It's time for good news and I am so happy for you. YIPPPEEEEE It's gonna be fine my love.

    Mel and Bailey: How are you both? I know it's POAS time for you and I have everything crossed.

    I got my results HCG 15 and Progesterone 9. So I am about to bleed any time...

    I must admit to not holding out a LOT of hope with an initial hcg of 47 - it is on the very low end of normal range so I was somewhat prepared. I know there are women who have gone on to have healthy babies with a low reading but the numbers weren't flash.
    My obs (who I might add is turing out to be an ABSOLUTE gem) phoned and she thinks it is probable that this is due to my wonky luteal phase. Not being on the clomid I likely had a bit of a progesterone dip before implantation that can cause an interruption to development. Either that or of course just a little embryo that wasn't quite right.
    Of course I am disappointed I WANT A BABY!!!!!!!! However, I can't change it I just have to keep on going. AT LEAST I know that the Fragmin is fine for me and that my fertility is in tact! I really wanted this one to be THE ONE but the Universe had other plans...
    Next time will be THE time. Thankyou all for all of your loving kindness and support.

    I saw that too Lynn - biochemically it does make sense. Will that alter your food choices?
    Personally I only eat low fat milk - but I will be switching now... We need all the help we can get on this journey I think...

    Oh Deb, I am so sorry for your loss but as you say maybe not this time but soon, very very very soon you will be holding another little baby.

    Low fat milk (why I popped in today) - I have this think for full cream milk or soy milk and have only ever had one or the other, when it got hard to find non gm soy milk I just went back to the fat milk... It tastes nicer, and I have to skip so many foods I like, why can't I have naughty milk.

    I drink low-fat milk mainly for the taste because full-fat tastes like cream to me. I don't eat a lot of dairy as I don't like cheese or yogurt but what about evap milk which I use the low-fat stuff in my cooking?

    It just makes it so hard doesn't it. Trying to lose weight and control PCOS so eating low fat but now the issue with low-fat and infertility

    I agree Deb - we need all the help we can get :hugs:

    Have you read the book: "Nourishing Traditions". It's really interesting and talks a LOT about how low fat dairy foods really alters the structure of the food.

    I am just so sorry Deb. I know how much you wanted this baby (well you have wanted all your babies) but this one you had a good vibe. My heart just aches for you and my stomach feels..........yuck. I don't know I just feel for you and I wish I could do more. I hope the cramping and aching goes easy on you to make this journey a little less painful (if possible). Again I am so sorry and I am thinking of you. Take care :hugs: :hugs: :hugs:

    Flowerchild, I posted in the Pregnancy thread but I just wanted to bombard you with huge :hugs: over here as well. My heart is breaking for you, I am so sorry but as I have said before, the world has amazing plans for you, I just know it.

    Clare: Fantastic news about the NT scan. I posed in the pregnancy thread to you.

    Kerry: Ouch!! It sounds very hurtie to me. I hope that your DD recovers really quickly. Sending *get better* vibes your way. I hope you managed to get some rest to.

    Mel: Woo Hoo no more work, well not until the 13th at least. Yippie, time to put those feet up and enjoy some 'me' time.

    Lynn: Hi honey, how are you doing? My watermelon was great thanks. It is so nice this time of year.

    A bit freaked out at the moment, got home and realised that the alarm had gone off during the day. Nothing is touched and I can't see any signs of someone trying to gain entry. I let both the dogs in to check the house with me and it is all clear. Still a bit worrying though. I asked the kids across the road and they said it went off for about 5 mins and then not again. I checked the memory and the tamper button flashes but none of the zones do. I think I will ring the agent tomorrow just to ask because it might mean a fault or flat battery. Luckily I have my big tough puppies to look out for me. Oh well, be back later, I am so upset about you Flowerchild that I need some time just to be sad. I'll be back later.

    Luv Spring

    Oh Spring sweetie I am sorry that my news has made you so sad. I really am okay. I am very disappointed, I wanted to be on the road to holding a baby in my arms. As I said the Universe had other plans and I just have to live with that right now.
    However, I with everything I have that soon I will have a strong healthy baby growing inside me. That's what I want for all of the beautiful courageous women in here. WE DESERVE IT!!!!
    So, now I am going to lie down. My DH is cooking dinner and he brought me home some Mersyndol to knock these cramps on the head.
    Sorry for my lack of personals lovelies...

    Deb - I hope you have had a nice lie down and that the cramps have eased up

    Mel - how was your last day? I bet it is a big weight off your shoulders - take care and enjoy your "me" time.

    Spring - I hope you are ok and it was just a fault with the alarm. Luckily you have those tough puppies to look after you. Is DH coming home this weekend?

    Nat - thanks for the receipe, it was yummy (not as good as yours though ) How did you go with the shopping?

    Bailey - how are you going?

    Jo - I hope DD is ok.

    hi to everyone else
