Monica,

We are all different, we all deal with mc differently.

My best advice to you (or anyone) is focus on the future. You want a baby. The road is rougher for some of us, but it is what it is. Focus on the baby. Focus on having a family. Focus on being strong.

As bad and sad and whatever else mc is, it does make us stronger. When I found out I was pregnant in November 2006, I was sure I'd die if I mc'd, but I didn't, I couldn't. We have to keep it together, and get back in the game.

Time is VERY presious for us IF girls. We can't waste it, we HAVE to move on.

I hope this isn't coming across as too harsh, you all know where I've been, you know the long road I've traveled, so hopefully because of that it DOESN'T sound harsh.

Hang in there, don't give up hope. Especially for me, with no more treatment options, hope is all I have so I have to hang on tight.

You will get through this. We are here to support eachother. I hope I can help make you strong the way all of you help make me strong.

Hang in there, chin up. Have hope!

That's the best advice I can offer.

Love and hope to all,
Julie
