It's been a while (well only 4 days) since I posted last but already there are masses of posts so if I miss you out, please excuse me.
Hairy if you are looking in on us, just a word that I am so sorry for your loss.
Thinking of you.
I have not sent up any arrow prayers for a while, I am getting slack, sending some up for you and all the dear people on here who have had difficult times.
louisesh You are so brave. I am so sorry for your loss of Georgie and of your previous pregnancies. It is really terrible and sad. It sounds like you are feeling this is an especially hard time with people at work pregnant etc. There are no words I can really give, except to encourage you to just continue with your plans and go for it but also take some time for you. Whatever you need, bubble baths, a week away with DH or even a weekend, a box of chocs, a new dress, whatever makes you feel a bit better. Yes, I know it won't take away your sorrow but it may just make you feel a tiny bit more 'normal'. I don't know if you have had/been offered any counselling but I hope you will take the offer up. Some people think it does help, sometimes it does not. I've not experienced what you have but I have had counselling for anxiety and for infertility and the counselling does help (me at least). I second Tanks' comments about not arguing with DH. I know it is hard to do because he is the one who is closest to you and you know him and want to 'share' the pain with him but if you alienate him with arguments you will not be able to share with him so much. Sorry if that is bossy; tell me to go back into my hobbit hole if that is not helpful! I also second Jolls and Hippy in that it is early days and you may feel differently sometime on.
tel1 I have tried Agnus Castus, I have been on it for about six months but three months ago my periods stopped so I have now stopped using it. I know there is probably no relation to it, but there you go. Did you manage to get the HSG done under your husband?s BUPA cover?
Lia hi, yes, hoping dates come through fast but wanting to lose more weight before they do. Italian guiltily puts down that cooking chocolate bar (yes, really the whole bar is almost my daily allowance of calories!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! well, it is 2/3s - it is a big bar).
Yes Tank I want to be fabulous for next year.
ILoveGregoryHouse congratulations on the birth of Genevieve, lovely name. I had a c-section too, it is a bit of a pain, physically and also on an emotional level, especially if you weren't expecting it! But you have your lovely little girl now, which makes it all worthwhile.
galwaygal I am so sorry for you that you have had to come to the decision to stop TTC but I am sure if this is the right decision then you will feel at peace and may be able to relax. I am not sure but you do have other children already, don't you, is it two or three children. You can plough your attention into them and also into your work. I have to say my work for a charity has become more meaningful and more central to my life as the hope of a new baby has kind of dimmed a bit for me.
40someMum hope you get a scan to see what is happening.
Muchlove how are you doing?
Tank do you have some generic Smarties? I don't like Nestle! But I do love coffee and walnut cake.
Hippy thanks for your comments, what does - mwah mwah - mean? Can't believe you have ended up next to a preggo person at work. Just don't get into any bump comparison situations with her and anyone else!
Diege how is it all going? Thinking of you. I'll have a Thai red duck curry followed by banana fritters and a Cointrue liquor coffee. Was the film good? I've gone and read the ending so I know what happens!
Jolly thinking of you.
Gum sending love and hugs and tea to Oz. Happy Birthday for Wednesday.
Rowing, BeattieBow, spottysox, Curlylox, BuntyPenfold, Kiwikat, Frosty and all, greetings and best wishes.
