So......yeah.....I'm PUPO....freaking out

I almost cried during my FET today. I want it to be my turn so bad its freaking me out. I'm actually hoping this week-ish doesn't go too fast. I like being PUPO, its as close as I've been able to get.

Funny thing though, after our FET, DH and I went and got.....life insurance, LOL seriously. It was hilarious that I forgot to take off my surgical center wristband too.....so I'm sitting there newly PUPO trying to rip the stupid thing off so I didn't have to get into my IF woes with the insurance agent of all people. Oh boy, what a day, heehee :)

Me: 33, Endocrine issues & FVL       DH: 32, Nothing 
NTNP 2009-2012         TTC since 2012:
