@junebugsmama: Sorry it's hard...
@Banana330: Fingers crossed...
I hate being guilted about the announcements. My aunt called to say she just learned that her grandchild #20-something is expected to arrive next August. Of course its legitimate for my mom to be sad that she still has none, but making pointed remarks to me doesn't help anything...
Hope everyone is nonetheless having a wonderful holiday!

@knittylady: Ugh, what horrible timing. I always find CD 1 the hardest, and I know you've already been through a lot this month with the recent loss. I hope the holiday can bring some festivity and distraction...and that the new year will bring lots of bfps for us all.
@snarkybiochemist: Glad the side effects let up a little while you were celebrating. Fingers crossed for you this month...
@Banana330: Thank you I hope that potty training has been going well and that you are enjoying the holiday.
My opks have been creeping slowly towards positive, about a week after when I should have ovulated. No idea why it's so late but anyways... It looked pretty close to positive this morning. All I want for Christmas is for that egg to fertilize, but hah hah I'll settle for the fact that we managed to BD in a small house full of people without anyone walking in on us. Small victories!

@snarkybiochemist: @Banana330: @periwinklebee: thanks guys. Going to have some green tea, which I actually don't even like, but it feels good to feel like I'm "helping" somehow. I had a few super faint squinty squinters at 9ish DPO and am feeling paranoid that they weren't evaps and it was actually another chemical... oof.

@knittylady: I read that the most likely time for a pregnancy to be lost is within 24 to 48 hours of implantation, and wonder every month what has actually happened...I wish when it didnt work there would be more indication of why. I drank so much green tea, and ate so much green tea mochi, this month because I was in Japan, I hope it works!
Merry Christmas!

@knittylady: bleagh. Sorry to hear that. I hope next month is our month!
@periwinklebee: she got sure needs to find another place to share those feeling with for goodness sakes.
Btw have you tried jasmine green tea? Especially with honey... Not sure if it stills has the antioxidant and fertility benefits!

@Babybeeforme: actually just got the call that my 13dpo hcg test was 66... I'm pretty nervous that's low, with DD it was 104 at 12 dpo. I go back Monday so it's going to be a very long weekend I think.
