Noi,
Pls don't mention at all
Its my honour to share and learn at the same time, these are not patronizing words loh, these are from the bottom of my heart
I enjoy doing all the research and I also benefit myself by researching. Yeah, I fully agree with Hopewaves that you are gentle by nature yet tough inside.
Hopewaves,
Yeah, that day I really hope we had all taken half day off and can continue to yak. If Liz had not pointed out the time, I really forgot to go liao! I will arrange for another lunch again soon. U all are the girls I can connect well with too because I believe our experience have somehow made us into better persons. U also don't mention about the book, my job is merely to provide the book and your job is harder, to read!..heheee..its a good book as its positive and holistic way looking at things and also teaches us how to cope with that inner voice. Wei, I thought of the very good question u posted again leh. It’s a good question u ask loh: Is it true that we can only conceive only after we give up and continue with life? As agree by most sisters that day, people who are trying (including me then) just cannot buy this idea of giving up and then strike suddenly Even now, I still don't buy this idea. I thot about it and its not about giving up but letting go. There seems to be very little difference between these two phrases in English but it is a world of difference in attitude. Sisters who are trying must never give up on the idea that we can be parents one day but at the same time, must slowly let go of the idea that having no kids is an imprefection. We can still be perfect human beings with or without kids as long as we have a good and clear conscience to the best of our efforts. We must still stay alive inside there just for ourselves. That was my mentality when I wrote the first posting and is still the mentality now.
Sunny,
Raise hands and legs on your joining us next time. Of course you can come lah. All the more welcome
Then we will make u guess who is who..heheheee..
Yes, you are right, the best way now is to "humtum" and keep trying and also keep praying. If you are unsure about which clinic to go to for next cycle, how about asking your hubby, sometimes getting more support will enhance the confidence and the feel good factor that is important. If you can come for next outing, the other sisters can also act kaypoh and provide they two cents worth about where is good/bad in this and that..
Since now already found no lead to fertility issues, it can be a good problem in itself. Maybe next step is to keep eating well, living well? Do it for yourself too k
U deserve to eat well and live well for yourself and overall health
Liz,
I am glad to know you and it still seems like yesterday that we met up for the first time at cityhall
I am very grateful that our generation gets the luxury of knowing friends via forum. Imagine older generation women who have to experience what we experience yet must suffer in silence quietly. Cannot imagine that kind of life in fact.
FaithBB,
Pls take what ur hb friend said as flying kite. He is somehow insulting himself by asking this kind of question. Next time he ask again, tell him that he is brainwashed by the old school taught of in life, must marry and have kids and have grandkids. Tell him when u want to have kids, you will, don't need him/her to be a family planning policeman. Don't feel bad about feeling bad, its normal but don't feel bad for too long k. yeah, agree with Liz, you must jiayou
FaithBB and Hopewave,
Yes, I firmly believe god has the right plan for people who are willing to strive for it. The part of the masterplan is to mold two good moms to be here. Jiayou
And hopewaves, you are a confident girl and must keep that confidence k
Don't let this babymaking affect that confidence of yours
Gan,
Wei!!! *wave wave* I was writing a reply to you in the other thread until I had to stop for a report. Its still in my draft…how are u?? Really miss "talking" to you. I did not PM you for the outing as I did not want to stress u during this period when you are caring for baby alone. It’s a very siong period as it was for me earlier on. Say if we meet for lunch on a weekday (fri most likely as weekend must let my mum rest from bb), see if you can join us k
Rostrum,
Wei also!!!!!!
Good good, good to hear you are doing so well. Its very tiring definitely, especially since u have twice the hormones. Two princes!
) In future when we have chance to meet up, can I carry them? I love newborns
You probably feel zombified everyday right? Cannot even think well right..Yeah, we had a good time but same as Gan, I did not PM you since I do not want to stress u to come during you most physically trying period. For the nxt outing, I will broadcast here and also PM u too once the dates are confirmed. But pls don't feel stress to come, only come if you are not zombified that day…heeeeee…
Elle aka big eye girl
