Goodbye for Now

Post by Tracey S »

Just wanted to drop you all a line - new and old to say thanks for the support over the last two years and I am off tomorrow to be induced to finally meet my twins.

I also wanted to wish you all luck at whatever stages you are at. Some I know better than others but the fact remains is I wish I had a magic wand so you could all find your dreams.

HAving nearly come out the other end (and still I don't like to temp fate with my history) I can honestly say you never forget the tmt and what it's like to go through but the pain of it wears off. I was determined to not let it beat me and I hope that you can all battle on and find your dreams - they are just around the corner for you all to reach and whilst it is a nightmare at the time try and have some laughs along the way if you can.

Anyway enough of my dribble. I am sure someone is posting on the other side for me - Dagny probably so if any of you want an update on the twins then feel free to wonder to the other board. I will not post here as I know only too well how happy you can be that an IVF buddy has had a baby or two but when you are going through it and the road seems endless quite honestly I would not ever want to have heard it on this "side" - hope this makes sense.

With loads of love to you all
Tracey

Tracey:

Good luck to you! Being induced must be a great feeling, you get to paint your toes and do your hair before you go in! I know it's hard for a lot of people to read about your success and it's so nice of you to move to the other side, but on the other hand.....it also let's everyone know who is going through this process that there is sometimes light at the end of the tunnel. Once again good luck tomorrow and I'll bet you cannot wait to meet those babies!

If Lady Justice is really on form then you deserve the fastest, most painless labour ever...

Thank you for your words of comfort at a difficult time for me. Thanks also for being quite an inspiration - you deserve your fairy tale happy ending. I can more than understand why you won't feel truly secure until those babies are safe in your arms but you're on your way girl.

Oliver will be the proudest big brother ever
Lots of love
