You are so welcome. Everyone understands your need to lay low and just get through the first weeks - wish I had a time machine and could just fast forward things a bit for you. We're all with you for friday, you know that.<br><br>Stop fretting about your boobs - mine have never really been sore right the way through - someone on this site recently (can't remember who) was pummelling their chest in a bid to make it hurt a bit more - please stop short of this won't ya??<br><br>Take it easy & lots & lots of love - jo. XXXXX<br>(ps - work gets harder and harder, not physically just being bothered about anything to an adequate degree - feels weird feeling like this but it just seems so unimportant and its hard to maintain the facade that you give a toss about the work or the clients - he he he !!!!) XXX<br><br>
Jo<br><br>Thanks for that - you khow I have missed our little chats - or not so little - have not been back to work since we lost Oliver and really trying to set something up from home<br>Working for Nikola whilst she is on hollies as I have loads of recruitment experience.<br>Take special care and try to be nice to clients<br>Love<br>tracey<br>xxx

Hi Tracey,<br><br>Every night I keep meaning to call Helen to arrange a meeting in between Christmas and New Year (or just after), but my head is in such a spin after work (and the hour travelling home!!!) I'm afraid I wouldn't be much good conversation (I keep forgetting the words I want to say in mid sentance at work!!!). Will try harder tonight/over the weekend.<br><br>Do you know exactly when her hols are? Perhaps when Nik is back we should make a real big effort to get together - Les is certainly up for meeting Helen and David again so he'll set the time aside if everyone is happy for dh's to come along too. Not being too sure where you and Nik are, would Chesterfield sound like a good half-way mark?<br><br>So, has 'work' been busy then for you? <br><br>Hope things are going as OK as can be with your appointment today - I am thinking of you and sending you hugs sweetie<br><br>Lots of Love<br><br><br>Fiona xxx<br><br>
Me:36 Dh:46, ttc 5+yrs, M/F (96% abnormal).
13 unsuccessful Txs From 2000 [4xClomid (NHS), 7xIUI(d)s & ICSI#1 (MFS), ICSI#2 (MFS) Oct 02 (ectopic)] Natural pg Jan 03 m/c 5.5wks

Fiona<br><br>Hols - right - well Nik gets back this saturday - ie week today - durr brain! Helen goes to Northumberland on 22nd December and I think Nik goes to Northumberland as she comes back.<br>Ian and are are loafing around mainly so are pretty free and then he goes in to his busy period jan 2nd and I won't see him again then!<br>Life at home is manic dog looking after<br>PM was as could be expected - had to wait 40 mins for the consultant!!!!!!!! and then when he went thro it all Oliver was really not a well boy - lots of things wrong with him but not sure which one (if any in isolation) was the cause of death. Most of the major organs ok but small heart problem - not serious but serious bladder problem and double cleft palate and shortened arms..... etc - not a recognized syndrome and not likely they think to necessarily happen again.<br>WE have the funeral next friday and I still don't feel pg - no sore boobs - always have sore boobs.<br>WE are in south lincs near grantham so chesterfield good and would be fine for Nik too - speaking on her behalf of course!<br>Love to you both<br>Tracey<br>xxxx

Hi Tracey,<br>What terrible churned up emotions you must have at the moment, I really feel for you,it must be such a rollercoaster of worry, sadness, hope and elation. I hope that Friday is a beautiful, peaceful, spiritual day when you say goodbye to Oliver. Am so glad that his little brother or sister is with you, and your baby will always have a guiding big brother looking over him or her from the other side.<br>I know you're worried that you don't feel pg, but am sure you'll feel differently when you have your first scan and perhaps finally allow yourself to believe it, although you must be dreading the scan at the same time (get some Rescue Remedy!).<br>Love Sally xxx

Hi Trace, <br><br>Rescue remedy fine I believe - the essences are preserved in minute doses of alcohol and you're only taking a couple of drops. Or you can just keep the bottle on your person and/or meditate on it - the vibrations from the essence will still be there (so my more witchy friends tell me!). Good job it's not the middle ages (and I've got a black cat!).<br><br>I'm fine thanks, much happier to see your good news - I'm now nearly 33 weeks and apart from low lying placenta (which means possible hospital admission from 35 weeks then early c-section at 37 weeks) have been feeling generally fine - much better than I ever expected I would! <br><br>Best of luck for 19th, my thoughts and love are on their way to you,<br>love Sally xxx
