Re: TTC Tuesday Check-In
What cycle are you in and where are you at in your cycle? One year TTC, 4th cycle charting, CD 12
Do you have a question, brag or vent to share with the group this week? Not really. I've been less focused on TTC lately, which I think is a good thing. DH and I are still actively trying including charting, but we also had a discussion recently that we're not going to put off any other goals that we want to pursue in the hopes that we're going to be pregnant soon. I'm just going to have faith that things will happen the way they're meant to, whether or not that includes another baby, and in the meantime, I'm going to have fun just enjoying the family and the life I have now.
QOTW: Do you "drink 'till it's pink?" If so, what's your favorite adult beverage?Just started cycle #2. Cramps are no fun. :-(
If anyone is temping - how do you temp with toddler that doesn't sleep consistently? My chart has been all over the place and I like knowing whats going on with my temps/cycle.
I'm a drink til its pink person. I really like beer and wine. I used to be a mixed drink person, but not so much anymore.

I feel the same way! DS sees my mom a lot, so he's pretty good with her, but we only see DH's family a couple times a year, so DS is very shy and sensitive around them. I can tell they feel frustrated that he isn't more loving with them, but when he only sees them ever six months, they're practically strangers to him, so I see his side too. Overall, it just makes me sad that he doesn't have the chance to build up a stronger relationship with them.
I keep telling myself that as she gets older it will change. I'll be able to tell her stories about them and she can talk to them on the phone, Skype, etc. You are not alone!
What cycle are you in and where are you at in your cycle? Cycle 2, Day 2. AF arrived yesterday.
Do you have a question, brag or vent to share with the group this week? Not really. I was being a whiny little b!tch yesterday when AF came; I think because I got pregnant so quickly with Tony, I assumed it would be the exact same way with LO #2. I allowed myself a pity party for about 10 minutes, then I told myself I needed to get the hell over it. When I think of all the couples who have been trying for years to get pregnant...yeah I felt pretty ashamed of myself. As DH put it yesterday, "we're going to have a great time trying for the second one!" haha.
QOTW: Do you "drink 'till it's pink?" If so, what's your favorite adult beverage?
Hell yeah! I'm a margarita girl, but I love a good glass of wine (any dry red Italian wine will do) once in a while.
Sorry to sound like a looser but what's "drink till its pink" mean?
We're not even TTC yet but i've been lurking on this topic for awhile now because we'll be there shortly and i'm clueless as to what y'all are talking about
For instance, this past weekend I was waiting for AF and still drank at a BBQ we went to. I *could* have been PG since I was a day late, but I wasn't getting a BFP when I tested yet. You stop drinking when you finally get a BFP (a pink line).

What cycle are you in and where are you at in your cycle? Cycle 3, CD 5 or so
Do you have a question, brag or vent to share with the group this week? I guess just a general comment... I just started my new job and I'm still working part time (WAH) at my old job. With my new position I will have to pass two 6 hour certification exams that take 16 weeks each to study for... I feel like I should probably stop TTC for a few cycles just because it's going to be so hectic and I want to be sure I have time to pass the tests before having another LO, but I also don't want to waste any chances. It took 6 months with LO and there's nothing saying it won't take so long again. (or longer)
QOTW: Do you "drink 'till it's pink?" If so, what's your favorite adult beverage?
YES. I also drink in moderation while pregnant. To me, that means that I had 3 drinks during my whole pregnancy but I have recently heard up to 8 drinks a week is okay, not that I would drink so much! I would honestly not feel bad about 1 glass of wine a week.
What cycle are you in and where are you at in your cycle?
Okay this is a confession before Friday, I've hit an "I don't give a ***" negative black hole and feel like a horrible human being about it. I feel jealous that I'm being "left out" sort of, but at least I have one, ffs it took me FOUR years of actually trying for the first one, not like the second was going to be easy and I can tell that to everybody and make it sound good. But seriously I've stopped temping, I have no idea where my cycle is.
Yeah totally an awful human being about this whole thing right now and I totally emotional vomited all over your monitors, my apologies. ugh.

See above and to add I now do the b!tchy eye roll when I get "your daughter is almost two when is the second one coming?"
QOTW: Do you "drink 'till it's pink?" If so, what's your favorite adult beverage?
Yup... Ice wine when I can get it, but I'm actually partaking in a fabulous Cupcake Mascato as I type. Cheers girls! Thanks for reading
Also I wanted to add I love your positivist attitude Tob

I can't imagine three years! Ugh, no wonder you have PTSD about the whole "trying" process!
Four years of TTC would be so tough and you have every right to feel how you feel. If you need to take a break from temping, take care of yourself and do what you need to do.
::hugs:: and I hope the moscato helped a 'lil too.
Thanks love, the moscato did help lol! And to you too pgastl thanks for understanding
