    Tess - I know how hard it is to see other babies. I am not as strong as some of the other girls but I wanted to share with you my experience. This is just how I feel and I don't mean to sound horrible but I must put myself first. A couple of friends I know had babies after I had Cooper. One was a friend of a friend and another was a girl from work. I have not seen either baby or friend since I had Cooper. I guess they didn't think that they should come over because they were pg and now they have had their babies. The pain is too much for me to go and see them. I am not angry at them or their babies I just don't understand why I lost Cooper but they get to keep their baby. I need to do what is right for me and that is protecting myself and my emotions. I guess what I am trying to say is that there is no wrong or right way to go about this. You need to do what is right for you. I also think that if a friend is a friend then they need to try to understand what it is like for us, without our babies.

    Mel - I am so sorry you are feeling down Unfortunately that is what is so cruel about this journey, there are so many downs and a few ups. If you want to talk about it I will be home tonight, either on the phone or messenger. I am trying to remain positive. For me, ovulating is a big step, so I have done that (finally!). Hold that little porky pig in your hand and draw strength and think positive.

    Bailey - I'm not that skinny! I have a lot more to go. But I am taking it easy these next 2 weeks. I have been walking this morning with my 2 fur-babies and my sisters dog which I am looking after at the moment. It was a nice walk because the air was nice and crisp and it was really foggy which was nice. I love Winter - bring it on! Can't wait for Sunday

    Tommysmum - it must be nice to have your boy home at last (although not how you planned). It does show how much strength you have and how far you have come. LOL at your undie comment - no comment here! See you on Sunday.

    Spring - yes I am counting the days down too! It is going to be so looooooooong. I hope you are feeling better today. Before you know it, DH will be home for good. I will call you about Sunday.

    Nat - yes I am taking it easy. Yesterday I went to the S&K meeting and then took my mum dad to the airport Only 3 weeks and they will be home. I miss them already! Today I am doing nothing but the washing and ironing so I think I will see what movies are on foxtel - fun day hey! Hopefully you can relax now that the birthdays are over. No I will not talk you out of going to the gym. You look so good! I know how you feel about thinking you would have 3 or 4 children by now. After 3 years of trying I thought I would have 2 by now too. Life is funny.........but not in a ha ha way. I hope you can come on Sunday, I would love to see you I will email you Bailey's address.

    Jo - I am sorry that you find yourself here but welcome. I am so sorry for your losses. You have joined the best bunch of girls who will support you and guide you through this bumpy journey. Take care.

    Deb - I will be thinking of you tomorrow. Everything will be fine and there will be a nice strong heartbeat. Make sure you come in and let us know how you go.

    Klee - hope you are doing ok. Thinking of you :hugs:

    Chelle - not sure if you are still popping in but if you are, I just wanted to let you know that I have been thinking about you and I hope you are doing ok. Take care.
