@RiverSong15 There were definitely some teary-eyed commercials last night!
@NYTino24 Sorry about the coworker's wife. That's so rough when people just don't get it. I know everyone deals with it differently, but I just flat out tell them what's going on. I figure if they feel the need to get in my uterus and talk about sensitive topics to me that they keep going on and on and on about, and it's upsetting me, then I just let them know where I stand and what the issue is and talk in-depth about my miscarriages and depression. I give 0 F's about people's feelings anymore after 3 MCs. I've found it oddly liberating and better for me emotionally to talk about.

@dpjennifer bravo!!!! I hope I'm strong enough one day to do what you do. This process has definitely made me more sensitive to ttc. Never thought of people's back stories before.

@SP128 Thank you! It's not something I thought too much about before my MCs, but I also didn't go around saying "When are you having babies" and "Why don't you have kids yet" and go on and on about things either. Being frank with people I feel not only helps me, but I hope it's an eye-opener to them so that they realize not everyone has an easy path to kids and that they'll STOP being so interfering to others. Usually they have no idea how upset they're making us and never even thought about the back stories.

@NYTino24 - I hate it when people say things like that. I'm desperate to feel frazzled and tired -it's like yes I still want kids. Do you want to put your kids up for adoption bec it's too hard? I feel like so many people don't have problems ttc so they don't know what to say but it still doesn't excuse it.
I wish I could go that point too @dpjennifer usually I just don't want to get into it. But I give you a lot of credit for talking about it so openly. I hope I can when I am on the other side of it, whenever that is.
...off to WTO! At least I'm not benched anymore! PS these cramps are TERRIBLE. I mean, they are nothing compared to the contractions I had with the MC, but couldn't my body just ease into this?!?
It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*
@NYTino24 So sorry for the insensitive comments and the killer cramps. Congrats on being off the bench tho!
@dpjennifer Good for you for telling people like it is! If they want to comment on the status of your uterus, they should be ready to deal with the uncomfortable conversations too.
SS all day at work and over analyzing practically nothing makes me very unproductive. Good thing it is slow at work. However, slow days at work gives me more time to obsess. Also DH is away for the week. I at least worked Monday night and will again tonight. Wednesday - Friday will be kind of all hairy and BSC!

@NYTino24 I "think" I felt some small twinges around my belly button. I keep on comparing to the symptoms I notated in Aug when I got KU. I know I'm just being psychosomatic. Also.... my resting heart rate did rise by 2 beats when you look at before O. So obviously KU!!!! Never mind the fact that I felt the same things the last failed cycles. ((( I'm eye rolling myself))) It's pathetic.
Sometimes I wish there was a IRL support group.

@TScalei & @SP128 I'm horrible with SS right now too Ughhhhh my sense of smell is crazy right now and I've totally convinced myself that it means good things for testing Friday.
Also *TW* Some random lady at Kung Fu was chatting with me and leaned over and told me she found out two weeks ago she's KU. It was more bearable since I'm hopeful that I am too, but it's going to suck seeing her every week if I'm not. Just another pregnant person wherever I go....
@TheFox&TheSparrow I'm sorry. I just saw my second announcement in two days and both are due when I would have been. It's tough.

FINALLY get to move over to here! C/p on 1/9 and I thought I'd never o. We were ntnp this cycle since I'm "supposed" to wait 1 cycle. We actually got a try in on day -2 though so we'll see. I'm not holding my breath but I'll be ecstatic if I get a bfp.
@TheFox&TheSparrow @TScalei I totally smelled ham and cheese croissants being toasted when I walked down the hall yesterday. Totally preg!! My realistic side is telling me that it is just lunch being heated up in the school caf. #thestruggleisreal.

@NYTino24 nooooo I'm so sorry! I've had a few of those too on Facebook lately and I hid those people from my feed. It's just too hard. This woman at Kung Fu...I've never even met her before! Does it have to come from everywhere??? GAH.
@SP128 hahaha! Seriously same here. I'm driving myself crazy. I'm starting to realize how badly I want it to happen this month now and it's making me nervous that I'm going to be really broken hearted when I'm not.
Good luck to everyone still waiting to test. I'm headed over to WTO since AF showed up today after a 16 day LP. She certainly took her dear sweet time this month, which totally got my hopes up even though I had a BFN at 13dpo.
Sorry @babypi. Keep your chin up. Long LP is a good sign. Maybe this next cycle will be the one.

Thanks ladies. Maybe this will be the cycle that does the trick. My AF is back to normal and I had a good clear FF chart, so I'm going to try to stay on the positive side that I'm on an upward trend towards my BFP this month.
@TScalei Haven't tested. I"m 9DPO. I had some spotting yesterday. I usually spot a little a couple days up to a week before AF. Hoping it's not a luteal defect (see what I learn when SS?). Once I see spotting I think I'm out. I'm going to avoid testing until AF. Got really down last cycle with the BFNs. 8DPO is realllllllyyyyyy early.

I couldn't hold out after some weird symptoms, and I was possessed to take another test at 4:15 in the afternoon. Faint lines on two tests (because I had to retest four hours later of course). I'm using my last test in the morning, and probably buying some more. I'm in shock and not quite feeling like it's true. Love all of you guys and it's been such a comfort to talk with you all and get to know you. FX for you all. ❤❤❤ I'll still be around, it's only 9 dpo. And I'm so cautious.
