in TTC after 35
There once was a woman from Maine
Whose uterus was really a pain.
Her charts looked like a charm,
But don't yet bet the farm,
this beta was clearly in vain.
That's right-- negativo, as expected. So it's no more progesterone this cycle (yay!), CD 3 (2-4, for wiggle room purposes) testing, and you guessed it! another BD marathon with the hubster! It's his lucky month again, I guess. That seems to be the only thing different, so I'm going back to what worked!

His response in a FB message to the news that we would go back to the marathon BD:
"I'm preparing myself mentally. : )"
This is one of the few times in our 6 years together that I've been psyched he has the libido of a 15 year old boy...

Sorry about the BFN.
But yay for marathon BDing. 
MH is usually not up for that. He can sometimes do 2 days in a row, but he gets tired, blah blah blah. There is no way we could do more than 2 days in a row. Agree with PP, yours is probably the only one who gets excited about BD every day. 
Good luck this month!!

Sorry for the negative, but I totally love your limerick and I think you start writing and publish a book of poems.... "Ode to the Ute". Good luck next month!
