Well, AF has graced me with her presence, so I'm out I know I'm only in cycle 2 after BCPs, but I'm more bummed than I thought I'd be.

Congrats to all the bfp's. Not holding out much hope this cycle. Stupid UTI.

@Emsmems: Aww, sorry At least your cycles seem a little more "normal" than mine - I went off BC in December and am still in cycle 2 (so only 1 period so far).

@Lindsayinnyc yes, I am thankful my cycles seem to be regular. I'm hoping your epic cycle turns into a BFP though!

@Ms.Janedoe Yep - EDD is the 18th of November! I'm excited to join you, @T.H.O.U., @Mrs. J and the others over there on the Nov. board!

Well....count me out. Got my dreaded temp dip this morning back to pre O levels and AF is pretty much here. This was our first month TTC after my MC in December and honestly...I was pretty convinced I was going to get a BFP this month. Symptom spotting like crazy and so sure they were all signs of pregnancy.
I told DH that I want to take the next 6 months off to focus on losing weight and getting healthy since I really cannot imagine getting any heavier (fat!!) that I already am. Would love to lose at least 30-40 pounds. But he asked if we could try one more time before putting TTC on hold. I'm still thinking about it because I really want to be the best version of myself for my own health, a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby. SO...I may or may not be joining the April POAS. We'll see.
The one thing that really hurts is seeing all my friends with their little ones or expecting babies and all the chatter and excitement that goes with it. They know I had a MC and I don't expect them to stop talking baby stuff 24/7 but I just can't handle it anymore. I think I may need to distance myself from them for a bit. I hope they understand.
Sorry for babbling so much...I'm in a weird place right now. Still working through the pain of my MC and disappointment that I didn't get a BFP this month. But also trying to figure out if maybe a break to focus on me is the best thing for me right now. It's just that I'll be 36 in April and taking any amount of time off from TTC makes me nervous.
I'm just a big ball of confused emotions! ARGH!!

@whatsarahsaid: I'm so sorry!! Having a miscarriage changes so much about who we are... Blech.... I hate it. HB has been a huge life saver for me. There are a bunch of us that would love to help you through this. I had the exact same bfp feelings the month we got to try after our m/c... it was so heartbreaking to go from seeing 2 lines a couple months before to seeing a stark white stick that month. And every month since then. I'm sorry... now I'm just chattering. Let me know if you need to talk. Xoxox.

@Emsmems: I'm sorry!
Oh man, last night suuuuuucked! I was so tired, went to bed and crashed... woke up 3 hours later... wide awake and I was up for almost 3 hours before falling back to sleep. I was soooooooo thirsty. Ugh! It's gonna be a LONG day!

@whatsarahsaid: aww i'm so sorry. you need to do what's best for you - if that means putting TTC on hold for a few months, then that's what you should do. of course we'd miss you around here but i hope you'd still stick around as ash said, there are so many people around here to lend support, and help you work through this tough time.
@Ash: boo! i didn't sleep well either. i made the mistake of checking my app where i track everything before i went to sleep, and it gave me an alert that my period was so late by now that i am "probably pregnant and should test immediately" - so of course i had a dream that i POAS and it was +...my mom was crying, and everyone was all excited. so i POAS at 3am for the heck of it (obviously it didn't go the way it went in my dream, lol). it was the last one i'll take before my doc appt next week. anyway, today is going to be a long day indeed!

@Pirouette: I hate poas dreams... They get my hopes up! TTC is depressing lol!

@whatsarahsaid: Sorry to hear it I totally understand how you feel. I saw how many women get BFPs so soon after m/c and totally thought I would be one of them too. And I got all worked up about it this past month too (2nd cycle trying after m/c). Good for you for trying to get to your best self first! Taking time off is a good way to revive the excitement of TTC too.

@whatsarahsaid: I wholeheartedly agree with your goal of getting into better shape before pregnancy. I was fit during my first pregnancy, and I think it REALLY helped with symptoms like back pain, nausea, fatigue, and all the other fun things. If you have weight to lose, losing it first will also make you more likely to see that BFP! Good luck, either in April or in 6 mos!

@whatsarahsaid: Aww, sorry to read this Please join me in April! And don't let your age get you down... My mom had me at 33 and my sister at 36 and this was in the 80s! Before people started worrying about age!

@whatsarahsaid: oh bummer, i'm sorry!
cute DH moment: last night DH got home while i was finishing making dinner and walked in, gave me a giant hug and first thing he said was, 'take any pregnancy tests today? you have any good news for me?' hahahha, i explained 'the two week wait' and blew his mind- he was shocked he has to wait another week and a half to find out if his boys did their thing. i'm not sure how he hadn't noticed this earlier- we've been trying a year & a half =D poor thing, i feel like this TWW is harder on him than me, that makes me love him even more! =)

@whatsarahsaid: I'm so sorry! I totally understand wanting to lose weight, I'd love to lose some too before my BFP. When AF came yesterday I signed up for the st patty's day 5k this weekend (I'm not much of a runner) just to kick start myself.
@Ash: sorry you're so tired. Maybe it will be worth it in the end if that second line shows up
@Mrs. Bird: I love when husbands act like they don't care and then say something cute that makes you know they really do in their own way!
I'm looking on the bright side... I can drink on St. Patrick's Day and get some X-rays done my chiropractor wants to do... Hoping from some April Showers of BFPs!
bananas / 9229 posts
@Emsmems: Oooh, St. Patrick's Day drinks - what's an incentive! We're moving next month and there's an awesome BYOB Italian place nearby that we want to go to once last time. As soon as AF comes, I'm going there, bottle in hand, LOL!

Well, Im out, ladies, AF just showed, so hopefully next cycle will be it for me.
FX for the rest of you, I hope you all get your BFP's

I'm getting major AF symptoms day What feels like AF cramps were starting this morning, and my CM has completely dried up. Not to mention my cervix is dropping and opening. Boo. I was really hoping this was the month, but I'm 90% sure I'm out this month. Especially with my BFN this morning on 11 dpo. Ugh.

@fussygal: congrats lady!!!
@whatsarahsaid: so sorry, we took a couple of months off after out m/c. And I gained 15 not cool. TTC is such an emotional roller coaster.
.@iluvpink: sorry

Forgot to post but AF showed up hopefully will get my BFP in April!

Took a FRER today...BFN. I'm only 8 DPO so I know it's way early but I was hoping that second line might magically appear. No more POAS for me until the 17th!
@CKBR: @iluvpink: BOO AF! Hoping April is your month.
bananas / 9229 posts
@ckbr: There are a lot of us April ladies here! I think we may need to start an early April board - then I can stalk March AND April! Hehe.

@LindsayInNYC: That sounds like a fabulous AF plan. If mine comes this month I will be drinking lots of wine
