Hey there everyone - I so hate working, I miss out on so much here during the day!
Klee - Wow I didnt realise you were from Melbourne - It would be nice to meet up at the meeting. I dont know why I am nervous, I just am. How have you found the counselling they provide over the phone and the 1 on 1's? I havent had any counselling since I had Nicholas, I did have 2 visits with a psych but they werent helpful (felt like she watched the clock the whole time and billed me $265 for it). I think it will be really helpful to go to these meetings, and to know that you would be there would make is so much easier. Re TCC - Lynn is right, it is such a personal decision and I believe you will know when the time is right for you and your hubbie. You may say no today and wake up tomorrow and think yes, but also you may not wake up for a while saying yes. Personally for me it was immediate, I started TTC as soon as I could (as Lynn said, as soon as bleeding stopped). But then, I am still not pregnant and it has felt like an extremely long journey so far. Maybe sit down and have a long think, and talk with DH, about what you want and how you feel right now and what your heart tells you. Whatever you decide, the time will be right for you if and when you start. If you need time to "heal" a little you should take that time. For me the healing can begin once I have a healthy baby in my arms, however I know others feel they need to take that time to sort through their feelings. The drs I found have differing opinions, some say wait 12 months, others say try straight away. One thing I would like to say to you is that dont let the thoughts enter your head that you are being disloyal to Phoebe if you do want to start sooner rather than later - I only say that because I know each and every one of us here have had those thoughts and I imagine you will as well. All Phoebe would want for you and her daddy is for you to do what you need to do to make you happy, if that happens to be having another baby then that is what she would want. You will never replace her, you will be having your 2nd child - Phoebe will always be your first born
Lynn - Cant believe you are going tomorrow, I will miss reading your posts BUT... I hope you have a really lovely time. As Klee said, take some time for you and have some fun if you can, you deserve it. Hope to speak to you on MSN tonight but if not - travel safely and dont even think about us while your away Oh, and you will be back well and truly before I would get any good news. AF is not due til the Monday after you get back. Good luck with all of your injections, I know it will be tough but you are a tough cookie and will get through it cause you know the outcome - we ALL (incl. Deb) get BFP's in the next few weeks - how awesome would that be!
Deb - We do have irrational thoughts though, like the other week when a lady at work left on maternity leave I thought to myself hmmm dont count your chickens before they're hatched - admittedly it was partly sour grapes but I really do believe you just never know what is waiting around the corner now. I know it is too early for symptoms but I constantly have this feeling that last couple of months that it is going to be a very long road for me - I really hope I am wrong but only time will tell.
Kristee - How were your results? Its well and truly past 4.30 now so spill...
Hindonly - I know what you mean by being ready now, I have had that feeling ever since I was pregnant with Nicholas and I found out 26 Jan last year so its 15 months and counting now... I had a baby, but dont have one iykwim. I hope you get a BFP soon too, I hope we all do!
Spring - Hope they havent worked you too hard today, lil Spring will get really mad at them!
Tommysmum - Hope your doing ok, how are you feeling? Still got m/s? Hope it hasnt gotten any worse.
Hi to everyone else.
Other than my personals I dont have much to say tonight. I made an appointment to have all my hair chopped off (well about 5 inches or so anyway) cause I am sick of being "me" - I need a change!
Your weekend sounds wonderful - you wouldnt mind sending me down a slice of that cake would ya? YUUUUUUUUM! Do you know what movie you are going to see? There are a few good ones coming out in the near future - Absolutely cannot wait for the Simpsons Movie (see big kid I tell ya).
Peanut butter sandwiches are ok - especially combined with fruit! So enjoy
BUT... I hope you have a really lovely time. As Klee said, take some time for you and have some fun if you can, you deserve it. Hope to speak to you on MSN tonight but if not - travel safely and dont even think about us while your away
