Gosh it feels like forever since I've been able to post here, I'm sorry to have been so flaky. This past year has been rough. We are finally just starting to settle down and get back on our feet so I am praying hard that everything can just go smooth and peacefully for a while now. Ever since the end of July we have not had our choice of BD "sessions" (for lack of a better word, my brain is fried) so it was difficult to actively TTC these past 6 cycles...
This last week we moved to a new state, it's only about an hour away from where we lived before so we're both still working there and commuting until we are financially able to transfer closer to our new home, probably until the end of next summer.
I started working again at the end of September, just weekends so that DH can watch the kids instead of paying for childcare. So far it's not too bad but I miss the baby of course. And that commute
I'm sure the stress of this last year is playing a big part but my stepdaughter has been acting out just terribly this last month or two. This has caused me stress to the point I have broken down and started seeing a counselor to try to sort my feelings. It's been challenging since the beginning with her (since she came to live with us full time four years ago) but her behaviors have gotten out of control lately and I don't know how to deal with them.
DD is 13 months now and such a toddler! She walking all around and cutting teeth like crazy. She still loves to eat and doesn't sleep through the night :/
Sooo, I am still completely shocked here. I was driving home from work on Sunday night and thought "hey my period is due the beginning of this week I should POAS when I get home just for fun" and I had 2 or 3 ICs left. Well I dipped the stick and threw out my pee and got ready for bed. I looked down at the test and whispered #$%^ !@*& to myself, then I called DH into the bathroom to ask if I was crazy and seeing things - He saw it too, not dark but not faint either! I couldn't believe and still hardly can. I am 3+3 today, no idea how many DPO - when I did BBT last time (TTC DD) I usually O'd around CD 11. We dtd on CD 8 and CD 14 this cycle (had a hotel room both times lol) so I am guessing one of those? CD 8 seems so early but CD 14 seems way too late and there's no way I would have got a line that dark on 9 DPO... I don't know, I so surprised and confused.
