Trying to be happy

knottieb940210161412eee

My husband & I have only been "trying" for 3 cycles (this is my 4th), so I feel a little lost & like my feelings aren't valid because it hasn't been long enough. I'm trying so hard to focus on being happy with just my husband & me. I truly enjoy our life the way it is & want to focus on that, but with every new month comes uncertainties, fears, and meltdowns. 

How do y'all keep yourself at somewhat peace & distracted from all the baby desires? What ways do you prioritize just you and your spouse in this odd season?

Hi! We don’t typically encourage one off posts like this as it can clutter the board but as there isn’t a lot of activity it isn’t the end of the world. Please feel free to change your username to something easier to identify as it can be hard to remember all your specific numbers. 

Trying for any length of time is tricky so don’t beat yourself up about that. I’ve “only” been trying for 3 months myself (this is my 3rd cycle) and each negative/period is really hard.

Hi! Jumping in here, I wanted to be able to chat with other women going through the same things. I too have “only” been trying for 3 months.
