Hi ladies - I am only away for a couple of days and we are onto a new thread already. I will try to keep up but apologise if I miss anyone out - I have read all the posts and are thinking of you all.

Tommysmom - I hope you are okay today and picking up Thomas's ashes was okay. To be honest I have not managed to go and fetch my Thomas's ashes and we are probably not going to bring them home. We want to spread his ashes at the childrens cemetary - I feel that way he can play with the other children (just my opinion). I think you are all very brave for taking your babies home!

Spring - That is good news about maternity leave, and it is good to hear you doing so well. I think it is a great idea to get everyone together in Sydney - could be very rewarding in many ways.

Lynn - It is good to hear the IUI went well and I have my fingers crossed in this 2ww that it has all worked.

Mel - It sounds like the counsellor really helped you and DH - that is such good news that it was worth it.

Bailey - I could never get OPK's to show a positive result (except when I used one as a HPT!!). Maybe you should go for a bt or just DTD every second night until either the symptoms kick in or AF arrives.

I have had a rather difficult week and feel really selfish for feeling down - my friend at work was pregnant the same time as me and my EDD was 5may and she gave birth on 11may. I am so happy for her and her daughter is gorgeous and healthy - but I was so upset as it bought back what I do not have. I hate feeling like this and try so hard to not let it show when everyone is excited - I guess it will get better soon but I am dreading seeing the bub for the first time in a few days. How do I get out of it without hurting my friends feelings and appearing really selfish??

Hi to everyone I have missed - I hope you are doing okay.
Tess
