    Thanks @cheetara2!

    I'm at CD7 and feeling sort of down. I really felt like last month was my month, but instead I got rewarded with the nastiest AF of my life. Part of me will always wonder if it was a CP, because I didn't test and just don't know.

    Now I'm trying to tell myself that an extra month will work in our favour because it means we could travel (road trip) during the summer instead of being tied here to doctor's appointments. We would at least get July to do some trips before having weekly appointments (if I am lucky enough to get a sticky pregnancy this month coming). Initially I had just been worried about making it through the school year, now that's a given, and I just want things to work out...

    I guess overall I'm discouraged but trying to keep my spirits up. 

    I hope everyone is doing well.

    Thanks for the check-in @cheetara2!

    @northernkhaleesi I'm sorry you're feeling discouraged.  TTCAL is so hard!!!  

    AFM:  I'm on CD 45 and still no AF.  Mo doc prescribed me something that I took for 5 days which is supposed to induce a period but nothing has happened yet.  As I said last week I'm ok with no period as long as she shows by the first week of December.  The last thing I want is my surgery delayed because AF never shows!!  I am feeling totally overwhelmed with my last few assignments of the semester and am just trying to keep my head above water.  I sometimes lurk on pgal and a bunch of women who I became close with last year are all having their rainbows.  While I am THRILLED for them, it makes me so sad that I'm still in this unknown "will it ever happen for me" state.  Never in a million years did I think I would be here a year later.  Hopefully my mood is an indication that AF is on her way!!

    QOTW:  I know it's gross but I love the cranberries in the can!!  HA!

     @cheetara2 thanks for the check in again!

    @northernkhaleesi I'm sorry you're having a tough time... It's such a mind fuck.  :(

    AF showed up this morning, so the bench is officially burned!
    We'll see; I'm trying to be optimistic, but not overly so.  Having my herbs makes me feel more optimistic rather than terrified at the possibility of getting pregnant again without them... so there's that.

    QOTW: I love our cornbread stuffing

    @Cheetara2 - Thanks for the check in! What has been happening with you?

    @northernkhaleesi - Sorry you're feeling discouraged. I thought last month was going to be my month too and then AF showed up the day I left for vacation. It sucks! But I hope that you can keep your spirits up and FX this cycle is the one!

    @Frenchteachermama - ((Hugs)) I hope AF shows her face soon. I can imagine it is hard to watch people you are close with moving on in their journey and you're still stuck in the unknown. I made the mistake of looking at my BMB the other day and everyone I talked to there has had their AS's and know the gender and it was a complete downward spiral from there for me. So I can relate on a very small scale to what you're feeling. I hope the rest of the semester goes well for you. Take care of yourself.

    @lycih- Yay for burning the bench! FX for you! I hope the herbs do the trick!

    @LauraO11 - I hope the next three weeks pass quickly for you. T&Ps for a smooth procedure and a speedy recovery!

    AFM, not much going on. We are out this cycle because our work schedules kept us apart completely during my FW. So that is really depressing and discouraging. I have actually been feeling really depressed and hopeless about the whole thing. My H and I have such opposite schedules it is just so hard to fit in DTD during certain weeks. We are going the NTNP route for a couple months because the pressure was making us both crazy! The holidays are going to be rough for me because I really thought it my mind I would be announcing our pregnancy to the extended family at Thanksgiving. And even after our loss I told myself I would be KU again by Christmas. And now that is certainly not going to happen. It's just been hard. And to top it all off my cousin (who is just a toxic person anyhow) has been stirring up drama with our family and specifically targeting me. So hopefully she doesn't make tomorrow worse!

    QOTW: I think corn casserole or pumpkin pie! But I kind of like it all! 

    Married: 4/28/12
    BFP: 7/2/14 ;  1st US 7/21/14 Baby measuring 7w5d, HB of 138;  Discovered MMC 8/18/14 at 11w2d, baby measuring 8w5d, no hb ; 8/19/14 D&C
