I usually love Friday's. Today hasn't been awesome. This whole post might as well be a TW.
**TW**
My baby sister is 23 weeks pregnant with her 3rd baby. We started trying at the same time so that's sort of a bitter sweet deal. I'm happy for her and try to hide my disappointment that I don't get to have my own excitement too.
Her friend that I don't care for that much reached out to me to plan a "sprinkle" for her. She wants me to do it because she doesn't have the $. Wow. Super bold. Of course we were going to have a family party for her and the baby but nothing huge.
To be honest, I don't really want to plan a shower or sprinkle or whatever. I'm CD2 and I'm mad. Not that she would know that but ugh. CD2, right before Mother's Day and feeling discouraged.
I know now I have my DS, and I'm so grateful for him, so I'm trying to suck it up. I knew I could vent here and this group would understand.
To top it off, I'll be triggering last week of this month and DH had to be OOT for work AGAIN. I don't know if I should even start the Clomid tomorrow. He's trying to get out of it. I'm frightened to do IUI because so many people I know have done it and had triplets, but it might be our only hope since TI doesn't seem to be on our side. I know that multiples can be part of the deal but still makes me nervous.
Sorry to just rant but I feel a little better. I hope you all have a fantastic weekend! We are supposed to have nice weather here in Kentucky so hopefully they are right!

Re: Friday Rant
Sending you prayers
and honestly i would tell her you can't do it.... you don't have the finances, or the bandwidth right now to plan a "sprinkle" (btw- i've kind of always hated baby showers....but i know that's just me)

Thank you for all of your support! I told her I can't plan anything right now, I'm just not in the right mindset. My sister understands and that's really all that matters to me.
On a great note, I got to thinking about when they scheduled my follicle check and it was a week too late. I called them this morning, got that changed, so based on that DH should be home when I need him to be for TI!! FX.
