Trying to Get Pregnant

How do you keep your mind off . .

How do you keep your mind off thinking about wheather or not you are going to get a BFP or not while you are in your 2WW???  Any tricks?!?

I'm supposed to get my pd on Friday, and if not then I'll test.  It's all I can think about . . . but don't want to jixx it!!!

I'm expectng my temps (and my hopes) to drop any day now.

Got pregnant on our own without Fertility Treatments - January 2016!  Thank you snow storm Jonas!
EDD 10/15/16
At 20-week anatomy scan found IUGR (Intrauterine Growth Restriction), and very low Amniotic Fluid.  Now, I'm High Risk and have weekly ultrasounds to monitor fluid and growth.  If baby runs out of room or is too growth restricted, they will deliver ASAP.  My current goal is to make it to 28 weeks!

  • I'm sorry, I can't help you. I've never actually been in the 2WWCrying
  • I'm with the others, just try to keep yourself busy.  I am planning a party for the 12th and have a wedding this weekend so we are pretty busy organizing that.  My mind is still 100 miles a minute, but we have a lot going on otherwise too.

    Just plan fun stuff, reorganize, keep up with friends, anything to keep the clock ticking.

    GL!
