Come and wait with me in my tww :D GUESS WHO'S BACK YEP CRAZY WOMAN HERE

I'm not a fan of the frer test strips as they gave me a bunch of evap lines. Hope that's not the case for you. Good luck hope you get a positive on another brand soon.

Yeah, i think they’re all bad evaps.
Im super crushed this cycle.

 

[MrsKatie]

@HalfricanMa I’m so sorry. I also feel crushed. It’s horrible.

I won’t test again until I get a blood test. I can’t, I need off this roller coaster, I want my money back!

I’m really disheartened by not even getting pregnant again since the miscarriage. I had gotten the first positive oct 1 so i fell pregnant in September but nothing since. I’m 36 and dh is 41 but im feeling old and like maybe a third baby wont happen.
We put our family size in God’s hands so I’ll be happy with His will. And i am grateful for a boy & a girl, but we’ve been praying for a brother for our son. He’s such a wild & crazy boy. Plus he’s brilliant so his courage is not lost on lack of ideas! Haha

For now i’m training up this herding dog so that’ll occupy my mind a bit.

We also trust God with family size. I think the hard part of that can be when our timing and His timing is different. Especially when it’s our hearts desire. I’ve definitely had times where I’ve had to wait. Back in my 20s when we wanted a third it took 3 years. I had had a loss which I needed a d&c for and then hubbys sisters both got pregnant and gave birth in that time. I was actually at the hospital with my sil as her birth partner. Went home and got af and was absolutely devastated but that turned out to be my LMP. I genuinely believed it was never going to happen. I think 36 is so young I would be shocked if you didn’t have your third but the whole ttc process is draining especially after a loss. Hang in there.

Thank you for relating! It’s a challenge to remember that just because we pray faithfully and have something on our hearts does not make it God’s will. DH and I have both had those times that what we plan isnt God’s timing and later we see why.

Thanks for encouraging @tdog! It becomes easy to *want to give up but it’s certainly not an easy desire to give up! But perhaps next month I’ll not temp or do opk nor early pregnancy testing to give myself a break.

I say the same every month atm that i won't test to early but I do all the time xx

@tdog I am equally hopeless. To be fair, I get extreme and unmistakable symptoms so early that it’s not like I can just be in an “ignorance is bliss” state regardless…

@HalfricanMa what training program are you using? Our puppy is sweet but driving us all insane, especially with the incessant barking/yipping and losing his mind in the crate. I should focus on puppy training too, to think about ANYTHING else…

I should be getting a blood draw tomorrow or Wednesday- maybe not until Thursday though, not sure yet. Our week is insane and part of me doesn’t even want to bother!
