    Listened to a podcast talking about CM, periods and how to tell if what is coming out of your vagina is semen.

    @meggyme :D:D:D 

    Going to fb ttc groups to grapple for false hope because you wouldn't dare post it on ttgp. 
    People think we become mothers when we give birth but the truth is we become mothers the moment we start calling our babies to us in our thoughts, dreams and prayers. Some paths are short and some are so long that you can easily forget where you were headed.

    How I feel all of the time.

    Extensively googled how to make & burn sage to clear out negative energy from the house in hopes it would help increase fertility. 

    And then planted sage in the garden.

    Put Maca root powder in your husband’s foods without him knowing (along with flax & chia)

    @JLaVO888 I've done so many of these, but I consistently check my next EDD on yourduedate.com. Even if I've already done it that day. I just want to stare at the date.

    Prayed to Gaia while walking my dog. I've also seriously considered doing the fire dance from Outlander because Geillis was pregnant when she did it.

    @purpleteacher82 same, MH kept trying to plan next year’s big vacation and I kept telling him “you know we’re hoping to have a newborn next summer, right?!”

    @meggyme Exactly! I think he’s in denial even
    though he’s the one that wanted to start trying in the first place!

    @purpleteacher82 @meggyme literally had that same convo 2 hours ago. He thinks we’re going to Vegas next year for a bowling tournament. He’s ready to pre-pay for his entry fees today. I asked if he was planning on ditching me if I’m too pregnant to travel or if we have a newborn? I pointed out that if he can wait like 4 more months, we’ll know one way or the other and then he can sign up. I’ll go even if I’m KTFU as long as I’m still allowed to fly.

    Frantically run to CVS because your out of pads/tampons/liners and AF IS coming. But you also know full well had you stocked up early she wouldn't have shown.....
