The dark time

This is always the dark time of the month. BFNs, then AF…It’s the time of month that I am the most down about TTC. I feel every moment of the journey weighting me down. Usually as ovulation approaches, I manage to shake off these feelings and start again. I imagine that in a week I’ll [...]
