Hug
Thank you for the hug. We are all home and doing well!!! I hope all is well with you also.
Hug
I have been thinking about you. I read your journal entry and it always does feel good to do something nice for someone else (your Medopure comment). Glad you are taking some time off, and the acupuncture should help with making you feel more centered. I think of you often and hope to hear back from you soon!
Hug
Just wanted to give you a hug and thanks for replying to my post! (((hug)))
Hug
thanks for your sweet comment...i hope u r hanging in there. don't give up, taking breaks is so good for the soul...i'm really sorry you got another bfn. it's so hard
Hug
i just read your journal and wanted to tell you how sorry i am. give your body and your brain a rest and think about if you really want to be a mother. if you do, then dont give up. try fertility or adoption or whatever works best for you. noone cares how you get there, just get there if that's what you truly want.
