Yep I have strted wearing some maternity clothes. Well with the normal maternity clothes I have seen some pretty disgusting styles, so I have been buying normal clothes but a few sizes bigger!!! I am also going through a phase where I cannot stop eating Pizza. I have a day off work today and I had already purchased something for me to eat for today last weekend, however the craving for Pizza was so immense that I found myself in the Supermarket today buying well... er... yes you guessed ... Pizza!!!!

So Bubble how long until the Ultrasound? I had my first one done at 8 weeks.. mine was quite early because they needed to check the baby was not growing in my last remaining fallopian tube. Of course I wish you the very best and I am very hopeful all will be fine.

I will keep watching this thread for news and to post some updates when I get them..

Jill I pray for you - I know today is important and you are in my prayers.

Luv to you all, Bekki xxxxx

Jill,

I am very sorry to have heard the news. Having been through IVF myself only to get a BFN - I know how it feels. Yes, take some time out and try not to think about IVF whilst you have your time off - it helped Bubble and I. Switch off completely and concentrate on relaxing, maybe taking a nice holiday like I did after my BFN and on doing things you enjoy - even if it is staying at home doing sports or simply chilling-out in the sun etc..(Spring is here ). It seems easy to say, but I think there comes a point where you have to try and I know it is difficult.
You are around 3 years younger than me - so you still have time to take a pause before starting again, if that is what you wish to do.

Please keep in touch and let us know what you decide to do and on what you are planning to get up to!

loads of love Bekki xxxx

Jill Honey Iam sooo sorry !! Everything happens for a reason and just keep believing in your self .. our dreams will come true. I was sick to bed for last one week and didnt get a chance to check the thread.
Its nice to take a break and take it easy for some time. I took 2 months break and started the clomid treatment. Along with that , just to take my mind away from these stress , i joined yoga and aerobics class which helped a lot, i lost around 15 lbs and was soo excited abt it that i forgot my problems and thats the month I concieved. i would suggest u do something like that if u r not doing it already. I also took a leisure trip. But on top of all, I prayed - A LOT.
So jill, don't get discouraged or disappointed . Our prayers will be answered.
Keep posted!

Hi, you don't know me I am the DH of Terana, you were sooo supportive after our BFN last year I just wondered if you had an update

I saw from your last post that you are due 12th August??

Terana is staying away from the forum at the moment, we are day 8/9 of our 2ww (3 x 3 Day ET) but I know she would love to know how you are getting on
