Getting back in the swing of things...

KelinandKevin

Hi Ladies!  I missed all of you last week when I was gone!  How is everyone?  Any BFP's? 

As many of you know I have taken the last several months off of TTC.  I started temping again last week and I am having a ROUGH time getting back into the swing of things again.  I keep forgetting to temp first thing and I haven't evened opened my OPK's to start peeing on them.  Why am I being such a slack @ss about TTC now?  Before I was so focused on everything and never missed an opportunity to pee on something.  So my question is - for those of you that have taken extended breaks, what tips do you have for getting back in the groove?

Also - anyone testing around January 18th?

I know, I can't believe it! I hit 10 weeks and then I'm not sure where the last 2 1/2 weeks have gone!!

I'm heading upstairs to relax for a little bit... see you around this week!!

I know, I need to make sure not to worry about this cycle too much.  It feels like a lot of pressure since its our last chance with any sort of meds before we move on to IVF.  I really really really DONT want to move on to IVF.

ME TOO! DH & I are taking a few cycles off post-m/c, we're tentatively planning on getting back to ttc in February. Because of this, my charting has been WACK. I haven't tempted in like 6 days and I only remember to pee on my OPK when I;m mid-stream in the afternoon and then I'm like "oh FUDGE"

I NEVER forgot to temp cause I temp at 5:30 AM when DH gets up (about two hours before I'm up). Every morning I'd wake up and was like WTF is MY alarm doing going off, too... oh yeah.

Does your DH get up with you? How is he about getting involved in the temping process? I'm shocked at how much my DH knows about my cycles, temps, etc... but I know it stresses some DH's out and I wouldn't wish that on you guys.

Some wome also set it on their actual alarm so they bump it when they turn off the alarm. Some phones have voice alarms and you can play a recording of you saying, "Take your damn temp"... I think it's an iPhone application you download.

Either way - I'm guessing it's just a matter of a week or so till it becomes habit again.

I was just thinking about you today!  I haven't been on here in about a month or so, and I was wondering if their was anyone still on this board that I know!
