Firstly, Tracey, I am so sorry hun for your loss of your little one. That must have been heartbreaking, I'm still reeling from my miscarriage and I was only 7 weeks along. Although, from the comments most people make it is painful no matter how far along you are isn't it. As for coping with IUI etc after a loss, I'm still trying to figure out that one myself. I said to my DH just yesterday that I'm almost too scared to get pregnant for fear of losing it again. I'm not sure my heart could cope, especially considering how long it takes me to get pregnant in the first place. However, talking to everyone here has definately made me feel braver and stronger and we will encourage each other through each cycle so the disappointments aren't so lonely and devastating. Just let us know when you start your next cycle Tracey and we'll hold your hand throughout it okay hun?

Sunny, your dilemma is a tough one. I personally would struggle to wait that long as like you I have an impatient personality. However what Shelly said makes sense. If something does go wrong, which we are all praying won't happen to us girls again, but lets say it does it would be pretty devastating to deal with away from home. Although, on the flip side you would have your family around you which I honestly could have personally done with this past month. Realistically speaking though, the odds of another miscarriage for any of us is pretty low so you will most likely be fine. But it you want a relaxing holiday with no thoughts of TTC it might be best to wait. Ugh...waiting....I HATE that word!
