GTKY: What is the craziest thing you’ve ever done and would you do it again?
People think we become mothers when we give birth but the truth is we become mothers the moment we start calling our babies to us in our thoughts, dreams and prayers. Some paths are short and some are so long that you can easily forget where you were headed.

Testing: I was trying to wait until the 26th bc that’s my and DH’s anniversary, and we’ll be at the beach, but.. I’ll probably test this weekend.
R/R: Rave: I’m getting a new iPhone 8. I’m excited about the camera. Rant (more like sadness): Our closest “couple friends” are moving. I’m going to miss them so much
CS/Q:
GTKY: What is the craziest thing you’ve ever done and would you do it again? I’m super lame and not much of a risk taker.. I can’t think of anything super crazy that I’ve done.

R/R: I feel like my LP is getting shorter and shorter. Not sure what is concerning though. FF wasn't sure if I O'ed last cycle and I wasn't temping this one, so I am just assuming I did based on a positive OPK, but my symptoms weren't as clear as they have been in the past. I am trying to decide when to call the doctor. He wanted me to try a few months and call in the summer, but, my cycles have been so short, I think I am going to call sooner than later
CS/Q: none
GTKY: What is the craziest thing you’ve ever done and would you do it again? I am certain I have done crazy things, but my brain is fried at the moment and I can't think of anything.
