I know many other ladies on here have already reached this milestone...
At the end of July 2006 I finished my last pack of BCPs and was excited to start trying. I still remember how my period was a week late the next month and I thought "holy sh!t, what if I'm pregnant already?!?". clearly my body thought I needed a few years to make sure I was really ready for a kid...
anyway, just feeling a little sorry for myself on this "anniversary" and knowing that you ladies understand.
Re: happy 3 year TTTC anniversary to me :(
I'm sorry.
It stinks.
But... you are nearing the end of such anniversaries!
Oh hon, Im sorry. IF sucks so bad.

I hope this cycle is going to be the end of bad/sad anniversaries and you'll be getting your sticky BFP.

this will be your LAST TTTC anniversary though!!!
i'm sorry, lnle. i just know it will happen for you soon - it is so your turn.
((hugs))
DH & I took our honeymoon a year after we got married. We officially started trying at that point, and I was CONVINCED I was feeling pregnancy symptoms before we even got on the plane to come back home. It was ridiculous how naive I was at that point. I never dreamed I would be branded an "infertile," but here I am almost 3 years later with a lot more knowledge and a lot less innocence.
I'm really sorry lnle - these anniversaries and milestones just suck. I can't wait to get back to the time when anniversaries can be a good thing!
