Member Since: March 2007 Posts: 79 Send Message	Well with all the excitment over the last week, I am very very sad to say that I am not pregnant, I have done numerous tests and had a confirmation from my doctor. It is true to say that I am very disapointed to say the least. I felt so sure i am pregnant. but obvioulsy i am not. I have become very paranoid and wont let my partner near me as i was so getting used to the idea of having a child that now it seems like its been taken away from me. I just thought id post, for those ladies who keep asking how I am. Kind regards Gems

	Gems, don't be despondent, just start right now eating all the right things, not smoking if you do, and cut down on alcohol if you drink, and take folic acid. Get your body in peak condition for baby making and don't do anything without precautions for a couple of months or more, so you get really fit. Then have a brill time and I am sure your wish will be granted. I did that when I was going to be trying for a baby and got pregnant in a week, at the age of 34! Much better to give a baby the very best start in life and get your o.h. in on it too, smoking and alcohol can damage sperm too. Google 'preparing for pregnancy' and there is loads of good info. Have fun and good luck, let us know how you are getting on. Lizx

	Gems.....................I understand how you feel, but remember that you and your partner are a couple first, with or without children. The drive to have a child is immensly strong, I know, but it is so important to make him feel as loved as ever.........find time for each other to talk over how you both feel and work to keep your relationship on track. I wish you both all the luck in the world. xx

	Gems, sorry you were not pregnant. please don't shut your partner out though, it is not his fault. And at least there appears to be no reason why you should not get pregnant. But I agree with whoever said you need to stop trying. Many years ago i had no trouble having my first but couldn't seem to fall for a second, after 6 years we decided to short term foster. The fist foster baby I had, i got pregnant, wasn't even thinking about it. Ann Glos
