Status: TTC #2 for me, #1 for DH


What are you doing this month? Still. Fracking. Waiting. AF needs to just make her appearance.


Where are you at in your journey? Waiting for CD1


What is your mood? Grumpy. Due to the constant stress at work I decided to go see the doctor and get back on depression/anxiety meds. I'm not happy about it because getting off them in the first place was a huge accomplishment for me. And grumpy because AF won't show her ugly mug.


QOTW: Did you (or will you) buy anything from Amazon's Prime Day sale? I really wanted to but DH was laid off for a week at the end of June and all the medical bills from the pregnancy and D&C are coming in now so we're seriously limiting our fun spending.

[caer]

Many (((hugs))) badwolf. I'm sorry about DH's job. I hope AF shows up soon.

[wannabmama]

I hope AF comes soon for you badwolf !

TTC #2, age 40

OPKs

Second month trying. CD #11. We are going on vacation Saturday so we might have to DTD the day we fly. Yikes!

My mood is cautiously hopeful.

I didn't buy anything. I don't have much extra cash these days:(

[purple]

jlincoln, I'm so sorry for your recent loss.

wannabmama and badwolf, I hope AF shows up soon. That must be so frustrating.

caer, good luck!

@carcebe, welcome! I've only been here myself for a couple of weeks but people are very friendly and welcoming.

What are you doing this month?
NTNP to give ourselves a bit of a break.

Where are you at in your journey?
CD 7 of my second cycle after loss in May. TFAS.

What is your mood?
I've been struggling. When I had my loss I not only lost the baby, I had to face the prospect of leaving my husband and daughter behind without me. I am finding that that's a lot to process.

Then the Brexit vote happened and since then, racists and prejudiced people seem to think their views are mainstream and that they're welcome to spout vitriol. And politics has gone mad. And the new Prime Minister blames poor people for being poor and immigrants for just about everything else.

Our house has been on the market for about two months and we've had a grand total of two viewings. A market that was already slow has stalled since Brexit. Which is all very well, but we need to move!

So all in all I've been very down and I'm probably on the verge of depression again, if not actually there yet.

QOTW: Did you (or will you) buy anything from Amazon's Prime Day sale? No, I don't have Prime and anyway we don't get such good offers here.

[wannabmama]

I'm sorry things are so rough right now purple the world has gone totally crazy. I hope you catch a break soon.

[caer]

Many (((hugs))) purple. I'm sorry things are so difficult right now.

[badwolf]

Sorry things are rough right now purple.

[badwolf]

And AF showed her ugly mug bright and early this morning. I'm not going to bitch overly much because this means forward momentum but damn she could take it easy with the cramps.

[caer]

I'm sorry for the cramps badwolf but yay for AF returning!

[caer]

***bfp warning***

My trigger never disappeared and the lines started to get darker a couple of days ago. The line was almost as dark as the control line this morning so I'm going to call it. It's super early and betas aren't until the middle of next week but I'm trying to be hopeful.

I love you ladies. Thank you for being with me for the last 16 months. This is the sweetest, most supportive board, period. I'm rooting so hard for all of you. ❤️

[wannabmama]

So so so excited for you caer!!

[sleepymonkey]

If I knew how to gif on my phone, I would totally have a gif party for you right now, caer!

[caer]

Thank you wannabmama & sleepymonkey! I'm going to be stalking you both so hard and cheering you on. Much love to you both.

[purple]
