It is within the normal range. It's hard to feel hopeful when you've been beaten by the statistic stick once too often, but it does reset once you get pregnant. You sucked on the side of statistics when it came to fertility, but for all you know, you're going to rock the house when it comes to pregnancy and always slip onto the side of good. Which is what I hope.Lollipop Goldsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01020874415819057995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25184159.post-26280822263880058042007-09-03T03:21:00.000+10:002007-09-03T03:21:00.000+10:00As i'm a beta novice, no make that no-hoper(!) i'm...As i'm a beta novice, no make that no-hoper(!) i'm afraid i can add nothing other than my support. <BR/><BR/>I do know that anything seems possible in pregnancy and that the most dismal looking start can end in a healthy baby. <BR/><BR/>I'm thinking of you and crossing my fingers, toes and anything else cross-able. <BR/><BR/>xPortia Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08344574775614817555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25184159.post-79493040368117965162007-09-02T12:50:00.000+10:002007-09-02T12:50:00.000+10:00Hoping that you're wrong, but understanding why yo...Hoping that you're wrong, but understanding why you're thinking what you're thinking - you need to protect yourself and your hopes.
