Re: Waiting Game.

  • Gah!! I hate af. Mostly because when you don't want her to show, she is irritatingly on time. And when you do, all bets are off. Sorry hun, hope you can move forward soon! Gl with your next cycle!
  • Ugh.  That is the worst.  I hate when my body plays mean games like that.  FX AF shows up soon so you can move forward.

  • Its the worst... the painful reminder every month that your body wont function right and get pregnant. Yet when its time to get started with a treatment cycle we need it to hurry the hell up. Two-Faced B****! Hopefully AF will come soon and you can get underway in no time.

  • Sorry :( I know how you feel.  I was temping up until CD 20 and then just decided I wasn't going to ovulate due to stress so I let it go.  Then my boobs started hurting badly over the weekend so I took my BBT and it's high so I DID ovulate but now I have no idea when I'm going to get my period.  It's a real mind effer.  I want to plan my next cycle but that's virtually impossible at this point until I know when AF is going to show up.  I really wish I'd kept taking my BBT but I was pretty sure I wouldn't O at all... GAH!!!  Stupid body chemistry...

    Anyway, I hope AF shows up soon for ya.  All I can do is sit here and wait, too.  Such a frustrating process.

  • I hope she shows her ugly face soon!  Waiting is the worst!!
