in Trouble TTC
Today was BETA day and DH and I decided that we'd go to one of our favorite restaurants for dinner tonight and we could celebrate or have a pity party. Just got my results, it's going to be a pity party. I POAS 12dpiui, got a BFN, then decided to go BETA or bust, today was 15dpiui and I woke up to a nice BBT and that really made me hopeful that this was it. Why does AF have to be such a tease and now where the heck is she? So onto iui #3, if this doesn't work we will have a follow up to get a new game plan. 3 is my lucky number, so hopefully third time will also be a charm. No real point to this post, I just needed a place to vent...Somehow I feel like writing a post on Facebook about throwing a pity party would summon too many questions from random people lol
