Hello Lovely ladies!
Long time no post... I had to take a break for my sanity sometime around last october. I just felt like I was trying to hard and getting pregnant was consuming my life. So as far as an update..
After a MC March 2016, I didnt become pregnant again the rest of the year.. I had set this expectation that I would try till I turned 43 and that if it happened.. great! If not- I was moving on. My 43rd birthday was at the end of December. I mourned it not happening. I probably gained 20lbs out of depression.
So here I am 5 months later... 20lbs lighter thanks to working out and getting a puppy to make me active. I no longer track BBT, or opks... I do however still test when I'm getting close to AF. But, I've been more relaxed about the whole thing. It doesnt ruin my week, my day or even the hour anymore.
I still want it to happen though, Ive just been better able to keep the obsession at bay.
I tried reading back over updates..
Kerzie! how are you feeling? Third trimester? awesome!!!
Woozle- was sorry to read about your MC. Thinking of you!
Pumpkin-Congrats!!!!!!!!

Megan, welcome back! I'm about where you were. My magic mental number is 42 and I turn that in August.
Trying an HSG (Femvue) in June to see if my pipes are clogged. That's my last invasive try. Then we just relax a bit. I lost weight too... The stress was getting to me.
You sound a lot happier. Good for you! I hope it happens for both of us. This stress becomes not worth it after a while.

Calvin! Great to hear from you again too!
42 is just a number... I had put so much pressure on that number, it really was just this arbitrary end date I gave myself that probably hurt more than it helped. Don't focus on it if you can. I know how hard it is!!!
My cycles had been consistently 27 days for most of the past year, however the last 3 months they have stretched out to about 29 days. If I base this cycle on 29 days, I'm 9dpo today! and hopefully there is a nugget in there burrowing in.
Anyone out there planning on testing soon? I am going to test in the am tomorrow before this big weekend of family picnics. I wouldn't mind having a few adult beverages...lol
As far as any symptoms.. I have been fighting off the same cold about a week and a half.. so I am not sure if I can say my absolute exhaustion and constant sleeping aren't part of that. My back was achy- but then again I have been coughing my head off, so it might just be the cold again. I keep waiting to wake up with the crazy tender breasts. They are a bit tingly today.
Well good luck and have a wonderful holiday weekend ladies.

Pumpkin, so happy for you! Enjoy every minute!
I just went the the bathroom and found some spotting! AF is due 5 days from now so I hope it stops and doesn't turn into the wicked
I'll update soon!
