TTC #1 Hopeful and Obsessed! lol

10dpo and BFN 😢

 

[BelleNuit]

Sorry jbugg it can be hard to keep hoping when you get a bfn. 10 dpo is still early though!

 

[puma1986]

Still at chance at 10dpo bug. Stay positive!

Aweeeeee thanks Belle You're the best!

 

[Bella12]

I'm pretty certain I had a BFN 10 dpo (tested right before I went to FL ) and then has a positive 3 or 4 days later (using a cheepo test).

Anybody else nervous about mosquitoe bites this year?

 

[BelleNuit]

Bella I hate mosquito bites as I'm pretty allergic to them and they seem to love me. However we live pretty far north and the worst mosquito virus we have is west nile and it's not that common so we are pretty lucky that way. I would be in big trouble anywhere else!

Jbug I got my positive 10dpo but it was so faint to see and frer was clear. I felt the same way when I tested on 9dpo and got negative. It's hard but wait for July 14.

I get so many mosquito bites and apparently mosquitos love pregnant blood and ppl that exercise. But like Belle said, we are not worried about virus in Canada. When we were in Cuba tho I was so paranoid

 

[BelleNuit]

Well ladies, I'm already at 3 dpo! My cycles always seem to fly by!

In other news DH is wanting to adopt a puppy! She is a sweet little thing and loved our cats when we made the introduction! Her and our cat Felix clicked right away, our other cat Turtle was a little standoffish, but I know she'll settle with time.

The only catch is we live in an apartment, so we either have to convince our landlord to let us have a dog, or consider moving! If we consider moving we also have to keep in mind that if I do get pregnant, I will only make 55% for a full year when on my mat leave, and as I am the primary income source, our budget is something that we will have to seriously consider! I'm also not willing to go back to work early. I think that year at home with your baby is vital for development.


BUT.... I have to get pregnant first lol. Here's to hoping it happens sometime this year!

Belle !!!! I'm all for adopting pets ! We have a almost 4 yr old dog and a 6 year old bunny ! Me and Hubbie love animals so I'm Excited about your new addition !

What kinda dog is he/she?

And yes the finances and TIME are def a huge thing to think about when adding a new fur baby. Especially if you might have to pick up and move again. In the middle of TTC too. But you never know. These events may be the catalyst to a BFP!

Being able to take your mind off it and focus on other life things.

Keep us posted on what you decide to do.

I'm pretty sure as SOON as you adopt the dog , here comes baby! It happens all the time !

 

[BelleNuit]

She is a border collie, pit bull cross and she is just the sweetest thing! It's not a for sure thing yet that we will be able to adopt her. We definitely have some convincing to do lol

But we are looking at a house that we are considering renting tonight. Just keeping our options open! We really like where we currently live but it's good to know what's out there too!

 

[GoldenRatio]

Belle I love pets but I'm against having pets beside babies, all that fur n God knows what goes into my babies mouth... I just can't
My cousin had two surgeries at age 16 because he had dog hair in his lungs. He can never hav six pack nor can go around shirtless because he got two huge cuts on his stomach.


We bought a big house last year and that's why we freaking out. If DH can't find job n I get 55%, we can't survive. So if u are just renting, u can always go back to renting an apartment right?

I donno I just think I would be scared to adopt even tho dogs are so cute.

 

[BelleNuit]

Well we already have 2 cats lol, so there will be pets around regardless. You just have to vacuum and the fur isn't that bad. Luckily the dog we are looking at has a short coat and minimal shedding. Sorry to hear about your cousin, that's really strange!

Renting definitely gives us some degree of flexibility which is nice. I'm hopeful your DH will find work soon! 55% isn't a lot, I've been thinking about that too, but we should be okay with my DH's wage combined. We would just have to budget a little more closely, which we would have to do regardless of where we live.

Will see what happens!

 

[GoldenRatio]

oh yea, forgot about the cats. Well if u gonna have 2 cats already, having a dog wont hurt.

DH is talking about moving to Winnipeg after we have the baby, because he has a friend there and they wanna open a business together. Seems so overwhelming to move since we have to sell the house and such. We shell see.

Right now my salary pays for mortgage, taxes, bills, gas, insurance. Just cant pay for extra spendings, but we started to cut out lots. Im hoping that he finds a job so i dont have to stress anymore.

This weekend, i grabbed my niece and she was crying. Sil said she cries when strangers hold her. Like wtf! i didnt understand why she called me a stranger. I was soooo mad, she doesnt know what im going thru and as if my only concern it spending time with my niece so she doesnt think im a stranger. She s only 4 months old, like who cares!

 

[BelleNuit]

I think when you are 4 months old anyone who isn't mom and dad is a stranger. Your SIL is probably just tired from having such a young baby and isn't thinking too clearly these days!

Winnipeg would be a big move! And combined with a baby that is a lot of life change all at once!

 

[GoldenRatio]

I know! new baby, moving, new business... either it will go perfect or we go super broke and move back to Sweden lol. I guess its worth the try.

Btw talked to TJ on fb, she says hi.

 

[BabyC4Me]

Wtf to yhr SIL!!! I swear ppl just need to not say anything at all. Or think about what is comig out of their mouths.
