TTC after 35

Goodbye and Good Luck!

Well as much as I hoped it was finally going to be my turn, things did not turn out as I had hoped.  I will lurk from time to time because I want to celebrate when all of you move onto PG35, but I done TRYING.  No more temping--my charts just look TOO good each month and the disappointments are so much worse when I have high hopes.  Good luck to everyone and maybe someday I will be back with one of those surprise pregnancies.  Big Smile
