[Lyn84]

So a few weeks ago i was really dreading xmas this yr after my miscarriage and just wanted to forget all about it but thanks to getting on the ivf process quicker than expected and giving me some hope i suddenly realised xmas won't feel quite as bad as i expected ive made an effort to make everything xmasy and although there is a slight ache in my heart still i will try to enjoy xmas i may not have a child of my own yet but i have a lovely little step son i can make xmas special for ive just finished putting his xmas eve box together and that makes me smile 😊🎄❤ for all the women struggling on here this xmas i hope you are coping better than expected too x

How lovely!!! I'm so happy you've managed to move forward and get to enjoy this special time.

Your step son is very lucky by the sounds of it!

I believe 'family' comes to us in all shapes and sizes

Sometimes were born with them - sometimes we meet them as friends in later life

And sometimes they're given to us as an added bonus with step children 🤣

Whatever form they come in I think our struggles make us appreciate them all the more

Never lose sight of who you do have whilst mourning those you have lost/don't have

Pray for a brillaitn holiday and end to the year for you and your family 😊

I am glad that you decided to be strong! I hope you're soon able to conceive. I can understand that this journey at times can be hard. However, a true trooper is who gets up with strength. Good luck to you. I hope your Xmax goes great. All my prayers are with you. Sending baby dust your way.

Same hereee. I would of been having a 4 months old now but unfortunately couldn't make it past 9 weeks. I thought the same that Christmas will be a horror and i will be upset and negative, i was for a bithaha. But then I've realised that been that way won't bring me anything good. So I've put myself together put my tree up, wrote many Xmas cards, wrapped lots of presents and im so looking forward to it. And the best part is 9th of January i start stimulations for my first ivf cycle. Life is good and will be better. Next year around this time we will be all complaining for our babies not letting us sleep 😁😁😁😁

All the best to you hun, have a very Merry Christmas and an amazing 2019 😊😊😊😊xxxx
