Awaiting Treatment
I'm back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thankyou for all you kind thoughts and positive vibes, felt better when I got up this morning so on the mend again!!!!!!!!!!
Miracle so pleased to hear about your friend Jennifer, things are on the up for her, will keep sending her get well thoughts!!!
Your time will come and although it is very frustrating waiting for something you want so badly, when it does come you will say to yourself, well now I know why we had to wait because now is the right time!! Promise!! Hope things look up for DH and work..........
Rock on you lady that is amazing results with all you have had going on over the last few weeks to get straight A's you are sure gonna be a hot shot lawyer, with your brains you can't go wrong!!!
I am certainly keeping you in my address book, you never know I might need a hot shot lawyer one day:!::!:
Sophie you rant all you like hun, it must be so disapointing to have to find you can't take the time you thought you could. How has DH taken it? I can feel the love you have for each other in your words, it is amazing that feeling, so have you seen any photos yet? Hows everything feeling on the baby belly front, all ok??
Jayne my Dr said that the raise in my bloods was so small not to worry about it, do you think I should ask about it again?? So when is your big 40?? You will have to tell us so we can post lots of glittery happy birthday signs up for you!!!
Rachel those weeks are ticking on by does it feel as quick for you as it looks to us on your ticker!!?? What a horrible time you had at your scan, are you going to say anything about it?? Not long till the 16th, I'll be PUPO then!!
Hi to Shantala, Angel, Becky..........
Angie so was the seminar interesting??
Carolyn hope you are enjoying your spa wish I was there too!!!
Ok off for my scan tommorrow to see how my lining is doing, decided not to call to see if my poorly few days could have affected it because they probably could not give me a proper answer anyway so will see tommorow, what will be will be can't do anything about it, I am sure all will be fine. If all good then will get date for the transfer tommorrow as well.................
My 2 little cherubs went today, they were only here for a week and a half but they had fitted in completely, they were so sweet was hard to let them go and to top it all which is fab news my girly has moved on enough in her life and with her family to go home one month earlier than planned so she is off home at the end of the month. You know Miracle when you said you are proud of her and don't know her, well you are completely right she is one girly to be proud of. Going to really miss her she fills our house with laughter (when she is not having a TEEN STROP!!) So I guess its watch this space to see who comes into our life next...............
Ok DH has just arrived home so had better go and give him some wifey time as feelin better and no kids around at the mo

Hi Lee!!!
Thank you so much. You are so funny..."hot shot lawyer!!"
Yeah, I have good grades, but I feel like I am not doing well!! Weird, I know!!!! So glad to hear you are feeling better.
Aww...I know it was hard for you to let those babies leave...But chin up!!! You are doing the right thing. Putting yourself first!!! You have too.
Look at you!!! You have helped heel that girly of yours fasther then they thought!!! I know that will be a bittersweet moment for you as well.

Morning ladies,
Wow, I can't help but notice how busy everybody is at the moment... either because of life events, or trips, or just taking a break from the board, or work/studies... Ah well, it's what friendship is about; you carry your friends with you even if you don't speak too often for a little while!
Miracle,
...ooooh man, someone needs a big hug and a big box of chocolate!:D:D:D
Sweetie, those were very emotional posts! *hugs* I think all that energy you have to spend on work + studies + worrying about your friend is starting to affect you dearest.... What kind of self-depreciating talk is that?? Straight As is a great accomplishment, and if you got them easily, all the better! I mean, who said you have to suffer in each and every class to get good grades? Some are easier than others, or some simply agree with our brains more than others, that's all! Hey, if I had grades like that right from the start, I'd use that as a super encouraging sign that I'm at the right place and doing the right thing!!!:D That's exactly what made me choose psychology over French Second Language! Some of your student virtual colleagues probably didn't even work full-time or had a friend in a really bad shape and they still didn't manage to get As like you! So put those good grades in your pocket and rejoice!
As for you not taking the time to reply to some parts of our posts, come ON! I had not even noticed! If we took stock of everything everybody says or had high expectations towards each other, then we wouldn't be friends! Besides, frankly, that ridiculous scare wasn't even a scare; I was very emotional that day for other reasons, and the whole drama lasted about an hour. Not worth a reply post, and not worth discussing it ever again!
As for your friend Jennifer, this is AMAZING NEWS!!!!:D:D:D Yippee! I'm so glad that she's on the mend, you must be sooooo relieved! my thoughts go to you, her, and her family! *HUGS*
And as for your tmt plans, it really sucks...
But you're doing the right thing, not pushing to have a plan that's constantly postponed or questioned or changed.... I think that would be even more frustrating right now. I really wish DH could find a steady job... Are you still planning on seeing a psychologist to discuss tmt options?
Okay sweetheart... you try and relax and spend some good ME time this weekend to recharge your batteries! And give the furbabies a biiiiig hug for me!
Love,
Sophie xxox

Now let's spend the rest of our lives having fun together!
Now let's spend the rest of our lives having fun together!
Good morning ladies!
How are you doing? I hope Carolyn is having a great time at the spa!
Lee!
Great to have news baby! Looks like you'll have some quiet time in the house... you and DH can enjoy some privacy for a change, and I'm happy for you guys! Can't wait to hear about your lining, this is the exciting part isn't it? :D:D Soon, your embie(s) will be back home! How many will you thaw? Great news about your girly, even if it means you'll start missing her a month earlier... still several weeks to go though! I admire you for the difference you obviously made in her life. I hope it sticks and she can keep growing the way she's done these past few weeks! Must be so rewarding to see that happen once in a while! Must make it all worthwhile! Thanks for what you said about DH and me... DH actually took the news very well. During the day, I explored every single possibility and he saw, like me, that there was just no solution other than take my maternity leave now and spend 1 less month with our son (not an option) or keep working. I was relieved that he understood.
As for me, I'm doing great. Saw my doc yesterday morning and I actually had a good apt with her; I now feel like I can trust her again (she'd lost my trust last November, but that's a long story). She told me that the conditions at my hospital are typically harsh; even pregnant nurses are transferred but not put on preventive eviction, while in other hospitals they leave at 22 weeks. The baby is in super shape, and I'm still gaining wait at a snail rate, which pleases me! The doc prescribed me a courtesy ultrasound, which was a complete surprise, so we'll see our son again on Monday morning! Whoa, really don't know what to expect! There are a lot of people booked that morning, so I don't think our ultrasound will last an hour like last time. But we'll know what percentile our baby is, we'll have an estimate of his birth weight and of course we'll see his face more clearly. Not 3D quality, but still. I'll scan pics and put them on photobucket if I have good shots.
As for work, my colleague had an idea. I had planned to ask my boss the permission to work from home a day or two per week, but she suggested me to ask for far more. She said, "Well, he's furious that you can't leave right now with your full salary and he doesn't have the authority to change that. But he does have the authority to decide what your tasks are. Given that your replacement is ready to work right now, he could very well take away all your clinical duties and only leave you research duties. Let,s say you have a huuuuuuuuuge funding application to prepare, you can very well do that from home, no?" So basically, I'll ask my boss, when he's back on Monday, to stop seeing patients and to "work from home on research duties". I would still have to come for a couple of important meetings and one presentation, but it would make a huge difference. If he's really that emotional about me deserving the rest after all I've been through, then he could be logical about it and tweak things so I can leave next week as we intended. We'll see what he says... it's giving me hope, but I try not to be too enthusiastic about it. I'll warn my patients and tell them I'll call them next week to book them with me or my colleague.
Okay, gotta run; I have stuff to do before my next patient arrives. Take care!

Hi Sophie,
Awww you are the sweetest. I know you are right. Espeically about how some of the people in my class dont even work. I forget that sometimes.
Your scare is important. Friends care about each others feelings. And at the time you were scared. So glad to hear your dr appointment went well. It is good you trust your doctor again!! That is really nice she set you up for another sonogram. How cool. You need to take belly pics again and post them along with the sono pics. Have you decided on the name yet? Or are you waiting to finialize it when you get to meet him??

It's great to read you again! I'll post the professional photos on photobucket as soon as I get the samples and, in a few weeks, the album. ANd I'll post the link here. As for the name, we've decided from the beginning that we wouldn't choose before we meet him and get to know him. So we're just happy with a short list, and we'll see what happens when we meet him.
Take care babe,
Sophie

Amazing news about your friend, I am so pleased she is on the road to recovery. It must be a huge weight off your mind.
As for thawing my embies they do it on Tuesday, I have to call or rather DH will have to call coz I can't on weds morning to make sure they survived the thaw!! They are thawing out all four and putting the best 2 back then going to continue to grow the other 2 till day 5 then refreeze them, so keep your fingers crossed for me.
Hope you are all having a good weekend.
