    Hi Janey,
    I totally understand about feeling left behind and lonely - all apart from one of my close friends have had babies/are having babies this year! Hopefully it will be our turn in the not too distant future!
    Fingers x your appt comes through soon then you will feel like you are making steps in the right direction xxxxx


    Hi Kellykins.
    Wow, so it's all moving quickly!
    Totally understand the excitement/terror! Just waiting for CD1 (either tomorrow/Monday all being well - although I bet it will be late just to taunt me ;) ) to get the ball rolling!!!

    Gosh, lots of names on here I recognise from the last few years - hope you're well ladies?

    Not sure if anybody will remember me but I was on this thread for a while as we were TTC #1 from 2012 but had repeated miscarriages and lost 6 babies from 4 pregnancies.

    A bit of good news and hoping it gives you hope too....

    We had a beautiful baby girl on 8th July - our rainbow finally arrived and she's perfect. We feel extremely fortunate that we were able to find out what was wrong with me (anti phospholipid syndrome) because I know that all too often, a reason isn't found and that is so hard - it took a very long time and so many hospital appts, scans, tests, etc before we got there.

    Wishing you all the very best of luck and thank you for all the support and help you gave me over the years - I'm not sure we could have got through it without you.

    Love Gelly

    Just popping on to say huge congratulations to Gelly that is fantastic news xx

    Tea - thanks for asking, our little lad has been living with us since March. All going well considering we are all still adjusting to being a family. He is a full of energy chatterbox who makes me smile, so whilst a part of me will always be sad we couldn't conceive, we are a now a family.
