Emso, love your unmistakably loud boobies!!!!!

Am doing FET tomorrow at 7.45 Brissie time, so think of me gals. I really hope the double valium helps. Went to ballet class tonight to get my mind off it. If I think about it I feel sick with nerves. I wish they would just knock me out already!!

Leebec how are you doing, transfer yesterday right?

Anyway I will be in touch....

Eyes do you want us to post our little blurbs for a list or will you trawl back? hmm...

Thinking of u tomorrow Sarah x
Leebec, how u going?
Eyes should search back and post the list in my first post?
How was everyone's Australia day? Bugger most of us would have work tomorrow, 4 day long weekend would have been nice.
Mine was good, lots of food, not a day goes by though I don't think about babies, I also think I'm strong but that all changes when I see a preggers belly or a happy child & mummy playing and laughing, my heart aches enormously to have that. I keep being told ONE DAY, don't strew it'll happy ONE DAY, well nows a good a time as any, why am I being made to wait =(
