Monday Biiitchfest

Let me preface this with I think it is awesome they send Amber Alerts by phone...but my goodness can they pick a new sound to use?  Last night my DH's phone went off sounding like our house alarm at 1:45 in the morning sending him, the dogs and myself into a panic.  He ran into DS room and managed to wake up him so we were all up until about 3:30 only to be woken up at 5 again by DS.  So yeah, I am tired.

STOP posting a question and deleting it when you don't hear what you want to hear. I'm sick of actually putting thought into a response just for the thread to be gone in 3 minutes. Grow up.

Today was supposed to be a day where DH got the girls ready and took them to school so I could sleep in for a little while. However, we woke up to our dog having a seizure, so instead of sleeping in I was cleaning up piss and drool. 

On a side note DH did still get the girls ready and he is asking them to school now while I nesting in bed.  

Happy Monday

Is it just me or is the thread 'First time TTC' overly puppies and rainbows?? She said she got a bfn at four days late but wants to know if anyone else has experienced this? For smurfs sake, enough with the OMG that's such a good sign!

Looking through the details of our health insurance this morning. It covers nothing in regards to infertility. No testing, treatments or medications. Should it come to that for us, we'll have to pay all OOP.

Spent most of last week with a fever of 101.8 and was resigned to the fact that we most likely missed my fertile window.  Well, my body decided to just give up on that cycle all together and I started my period on CD 22.  Another lovely tick in the anovulatory cycle column.  The only silver lining is our new insurance cards finally arrived so I'll be calling to set up an appointment with our prospective RE today.  

TTC #1 since Nov 2011

After a long talk last night, we are moving back into an apartment.  After looking at the numbers of how much we want to keep saved and how much IVF is going to be for us, we really need to downsize and it just makes sense.

I love my house.  I'm sad today.

Today was my first day temping. I suck at it. I couldn't sleep, I think in anticipation on temping, and woke up an hour earlier then I should have. I rolled around a lot and then thought I should have taken my temp first thing instead of trying to get back to sleep.  I also realized the thermometer I bought does not go out two decimal points. Temping fail.

Left home with a tear in my right contact. I look like I've either been crying or I'm high. It's so painful. I'm just going to have to suck it up until I get home from work. I may end up taking it out and being half blind all day.

There are some BBTs on the market that don't display out to the 100th.  That's perfectly fine.  Keep using it and if you are unable to see a temp shift this cycle, then go buy a different one.

And it'll get much easier if you have to keep at it.  Hopefully you won't, but over time it becomes habit.  I often forget that I even temped...

Good to know that it will get easier. I am going to keep at it, I think that it will make me feel more in control this cycle. And hopefully I will get KTFU and it will be my only cycle temping ;) Wishful thinking

I want to punch two of my sisters in the throat. I realize your alarm goes off that early for work, but mine does not. My work is in the afternoon/evening. I like to sleep in, don't text me at 7am. I don't text you at 11pm when I get out of work. Rude!!

not so much a b!tchfest, more like a hurtfest lol but my best friend, who knows we are trying to get pregnant (and knows we are having troubles at that), honest to God told me that she wont be able to be happy for me at first when i get pregnant, and that i would need to give her about 3 days to get over it. she claims it's because she will be sad that it will be the "end of an era" of us being able to hang out and do whatever, so i guess she thinks that life ends when you become a parent (she and i are the same age and she has never been in a relationship, so i guess she doesnt understand how priorities kind of shift when you enter the grown up married world). my sis seems to think she's a jealous friend (since she was also the center of a lot of drama surrounding my wedding), but i'm not sure if that's it or not.  i mean i guess i can see where she's coming from to an extent, but to tell your best friend that you cant be happy for her is just beyond terrible and kinda selfish. it made me so sad.

I'm really sorry your friend said that. It sounds like she's really selfcentered. I would be devastated if my bestie said that to me.

Honestly, if she has that mindset, I'd start cutting her out now, before she decides to do it after a baby comes.

when I was telling bestie about planning to start trying her response was "OMG, you and L might be preggerz for my wedding?? pout pout". She was already married at this point (in a courthouse) and they have (now) stopped planning the big party reception they were going to do this summer.
She does not know that we actually started trying, because I was sick of the "but then we can't get together and get schwasted" responses.
Even more, L did get KU and friend plans on us grabbing a drink before/after the shower coming up in a month. Hmm its a two hour drive for me, and she's coming in from TN to OH. I'm not sure how many drinks she thinks we can have...

I can completely relate.  We are on cycle 11 and exhausted from all the trying, counting, temping, and getting our hopes up.  Hubs and I have been married for 8 years and have a great relationship, but trying has put such a strain on us.  Hoping it happens soon!!! Good luck!

I had a maternity shoot this weekend. A family of 4, mom is 8 months and D is 3. So we're walking around the park taking lots of cute pictures and this lady stops and lights a cigarette!!!! I could have died! I wanted to scream at her and just about snatched that cigarette right out of her mouth. I remained calm and professional but it was NOT easy!! Why people WHY???
