I'm so weird.

I am really tempted not to TTC this cycle.  AF will be due when we are on vacation and I am always depressed for a day upon her arrival.  I think it might be better not to try this cycle so I don't spend a vacation day depressed.  I doubt I will actually be able to do this, but I like the idea.  I'm a freak.

Not weird at all. Taking a break from TTC every once in a while is a vacation itself. No stress, no worry, no wondering. Enjoy your trip!

I would not be able to do this.  But maybe try and don't stress?  That might be hard too.

I love your wedding pic if I did not already tell you that!

I don't think you're weird either.  Sometimes we just need a break.

Have fun on your vacation!

Well if you're weird than so am I because I'm considering the same thing for different reasons.

My husband goes hunting this month with his brother and dad, then he plans on going hunting another weekend with a co-worker.  I need to figure out the weekends and see how they correspond with my ovulation. If they don't or if it's iffy than we will go med free because I don't want to waste another cycle of meds.

At this point I figure another month can't hurt.  *shrug*

You're not a freak. This process is overwhelming and you just need a month not to think about it. Enjoy your vacation!

Agreed!  You are not a freak - I've done this several times in the last 2+ years.  Sometimes you just NEED a break.  And when I look back at the few times that I did do this, those months were carefree for me.  If you feel like you need some time to just let go of the stress, then do it!

I've taken breaks and I highly recommend it.

You are not weird. This TTC stuff messes with all of our heads. You're perfectly normal!

 

I say: Take a break from the charting, etc. And just BD when you feel like it. And ENJOY your vacation!

When I was on my forced break after the D&C, it was actually nice to not worry and wait in two week increments. No waiting to O, then waiting to see if I got lucky that month. If it helps you to more fully enjoy your fabulous vacation, then it's totally a good idea!

Take a break.  I took a break this summer, and it was so nice.  I felt like I had my body back again.

I agree with the other ladies. Take a break. I certainly plan to when we go to Mexico in Feb.!

Thanks for making me feel normal everyone!
