Morning!

HowlCircus

Hey early birds. I just wanted to reach out this morning to anyone who needs or wants to talk. I know sometimes mornings can be hard. I had a tough day yesterday and was crying a lot but I woke up feeling much better in comparison. My last foster puppy is going home tomorrow so I'm trying to stay positive and busy. I fostered puppies after everything to keep me getting up in the mornings. I struggle with depression so this situation was difficult. Trying to use my counselors advice and keep myself going. 

Here's a picture of the puppy to brighten your day...

@HowlCircus Oh my gosh...that pup is adorable!! I can't wait to get into my house so I can get a dog. I grew up with them and really miss having one around. I'm sorry you have a tough day yesterday. I know I'm going to have a tough day soon since we are TTC again...I'm worried about my first bfn.

Aww what a cute puppy!! Thanks @HowlCircus for the cheer up this am!

@MooFish2364Thanks! Yeah she's pretty cute! Getting a house is so stressful but the perks like having dogs is great. Fearing that bfn is always a stressful thing. We haven't tried again yet but this month when I got my period I bawled my eyes out. It's like I was wishing I was magically pregnant. Well I hope you end up with a nice clear positive! Are you in your TWW now?

@Spartanrd4 No problem! She's such a little sweetie I'm sure gonna miss her.

How adorable!  And thank you for fostering, it's a wonderful thing to do.  We tried but our resident dog was not such a fan.  

The weather is not so great here, but we need to get out and do some errands (doing some mini bathroom projects, currently have no sink or countertop, so need to get on that), and then chores and work for me, I suspect.  I really just want to curl up in bed and watch Grey's from this past week...

@BrightenMySky I love dogs so I enjoy it. My 8 year old rescue pittie isn't a fan of the pups but he tolerates them. The weather here in New England isn't too bad today. Getting out of the house is the hard part for me. Oh geez I feel your pain our second bathroom had a pipe burst right before we found out I was pregnant. I'm definitely still in the curl up and watch tv shows mode. Well I hope you have a productive day and I'm so sorry for your loss.

What a beautiful dog!! Definitely brightened my day. Mornings are definitely tough and I'm sorry your day was rough yesterday. We are having some gloomy weather here in Northern CA so I appreciate the dose of adorable. 

HowlCircus

Glad I could help at least a tiny bit. Sorry for your loss and I hope your day was okay @roxgibbons

@HowlCircus thanks for starting this thread with the pup. Had a busy but productive day...checked off most of the boxes for the bathroom. Trying to relax a bit now but it's hard to get into that mindset. We are grilling for the first time in a while for dinner. How was everyone's day?

Cute pup. Made me smile

HowlCircus

@BrightenMySky No problem! That's great that you stayed busy and got stuff done. I procrastinated my to do list. Well I hope you got some relaxation time in. I love spring and summer and of course grilling goes along with that. Glad you're having nice enough weather for it. My day wasn't too bad just a lazy day.

@HowlCircus yes, I'm in the TWW. I should have started AF probably today but my temps are still high. POAS yesterday and bfn plus cramps for two days. Pretty sure AF will arrive in the next day or so. 

@BrightenMySky I so wish our weather was nice enough to grill. It's been snowing all day here and we have about 2-3inches so far. 

We we are going to the genetic counselor tomorrow morning and I'm really nervous. I know that even if they want to do testing we won't even know right away but I'm just so scared we will get bad news. I'm trying not to get ahead of myself. My friends SIL and her husband are both carriers of turner's syndrome and ended up having 7 pregnancies with 3 living children. They were told they would never have a healthy girl and they did. So I'm trying to stay positive. 

HowlCircus

@MooFish2364 Sorry that bfn is always such a disappointment. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! I'm sure testing is stressful but like you said you have to stay positive. At least once you know what's going on doctors and specialists can help make your dreams a reality. I'll stay hopeful with you!

@MooFish2364 sorry for the bfn, but fx, and I hope your appointment goes well today.  We did the Counsyl family prep screen when we first started TTC.
