Infertility

To my non-POAS gals:

I posted this on our check-in, but there are SO many comments, I didn't know if you would see it or not. LOL  

I have a confession. I POAS last night.....but, it was just a dream! It was a good one though, because 2 lines popped up really quick! I really hope my IF brain isn't playing another cruel trick on me! 

How are you ladies doing? I feel like today is going to be the worst of the waiting days since Beta is tomorrow!

  • Ha!  I hope your dream comes true!!!  I had a dream that I got my period...so thumbs up for your and thumbs down for mine! lol. 

    I am holding strong.  Although last night on our way home from seeing a few people, I was practically begging Dh to stop at the drug store just so I could have a test 'in case.'  HAHA.  

    I hold out by just refusing to buy tests!  It doesn't hurt that our local grocery store only has the Clear Blue brand, and the only test I would buy is a FRER anyway.   Knowing ahead of time won't change things, and I want to be able to hold out hope for as long as possible.  Beta is on Monday, so FX for us ALL!!

  • Hey gals! Keep up the great work. I'm planning on not POASing after transfer, either...I think I may do it the day before or the day of beta...and that's IT! I don't even own any pregnancy tests so I'm trying to hold out. Thanks for the inspiration. I'm praying for all of you...SO much!

    We must be kindred spirits or something, or whatever they call that. I was looking at your blog, and that little cabin in Fredericksburg you and your DH stayed at? My DH and I have stayed there before too!!! :) Must be a Texas thing! ;)
