Hi kbat

Just had to reply. At the end of the day what anyone else thinks about lots of tries is up to them what matters is whether you can take the rollercoaster all over again. Your notes give the sense that you feel strong enough emotionally to go fo it. So if you can then go for it. No regrets ...

Thank you all for your continued support. You are all fab. :lol: :lol:

Simply cannot believe that my sister is 25 weeks tomorrow. Keep looking at my ticker in awe. Taking comfort from the fact that if he arrives now then he would have a good chance, even though of course he would need a great deal ...

Hi Regina

Not at all. Happy to help others where possible.

I looked at my old posts and know that my sisters progesterone level halfed over a day or two but does not look like it dropped below around 50. But her hcg was lower than you when it happened. Not sure if there is also an interplay ...

Hi Regina

Congrats on your little boy and your BFP.

This has to be a quick post as I am at work.

You'll see that I never got a BFP but we did get one with my dear sister. Her progesterone was dangerously low in the week after the BFP although her HCG was around the 300 level. Because it was ivf ...

Dear All

Just to let you know that we have our 20 week scan on Tuesday. Just three days to go. It seems like a lifetime since I saw my little one on screen - 8 whole weeks. Quite a long time since I saw my dear sister too - New Year. So much waiting! Waiting. Waiting.

I am a complete bundle of ...

Thank you for continuing to cheer on me and my sister. You are very kind.

I hope that 2009 will be a really good year for all of us.

Not much to report at my end. My sister was with me for New Year which was nice & we could help her with her children and take some of the load off her. I took her ...

Dear dear Becky

I am so sorry to crash the tread but I could not read and just run. Your posts are so heartbreakingly honest. I have tears streaming down my face. However, if you could not post here then you would have to keep it inside and that would be even more unbearable.

I only wish I could ...

Oh babe

I am so very very sorry for you & Brian.

I wish that there was something that I could do or say to take away even a little of your pain. I know that nothing will help you right now.

Cannot imagine how hard the next few days/weeks will be for you. You have a wonderful husband who will be ...
