@kpearse99 oh no, I’m sorry. I understand though. I am enjoying the positive thinking but it’s not going to be pretty if this month doesn’t work out. I have my fingers crossed so hard for you though that this is your month❤️
@kpearse99 I am so sorry for your family's loss. DH is even pickier than me, if that's possible. Thankfully we're both more open to expanding our menus! I am the only one that knows how to cook in our house, so all meal planning and prep falls on me.
@misshelen86 welcome back from your trip, btw! Yes, I was thinking about "Taco Peggy" too. DH is the one craving tacos. Maybe he's KU?? 🤣
@whitealbum29 hiiii! Glad to see you over here after all rhe confusion!
@kpearse99 If it’s okay, I’m just going to be optimistic for you. I want you to come with me to April. I’m with @bows22, though. I’ve been putting so much energy into thinking positive this cycle. I will probably fall apart if the positivity doesn’t work. And seeing the negative tests is hard. I’m bracing myself for Monday, bc I know 11 dpo is still early. When I told DH about the pee party, his first response was don’t get discouraged if it’s negative, because it might just be too early. I pretty well collapsed when I got the BFN last cycle, so I get where he’s coming from.
@mercury94 thank you for sharing your positivity and optimistic outlook with me!! I so badly want to move on to April with you ladies!!! I think that's why I'm not so positive for myself this cycle, in addition to unknowingly needing a mental break, I've been so positive in previous months that seeing the negatives have really stung... like rubbing salt in an open wound "stung". BUT - I've said it earlier and I'll say it again, I have a gut feeling about it being your turn!!! I love you ladies and I'll try to turn my frown upside down over the next few days!! xoxo

@emeraldduchess I realized you said meal planning earlier, and my mind went straight to healthy meal options...clearly I didn’t read that correctly! 🤦🏼♀️ Sorry about that! Hope you were able to come up with some good meals that you and your DH will both like!

@kpearse99 I’m also not feeling very hopeful this cycle. Lately I find I go into testing preparing for it to be negative so I don’t get let down as much. If it doesn’t work out for you this month, know that we will all be here for you In the meantime, I’m keeping everything crossed for you!

Testing: WFAF unless I got BSC with the tests I ordered this morning
R/R: We decided mid cycle to try for #3, so all my numbers or when I ovulated are based of the science of an app - no other reason so I’m ready for next cycle!
CS/Q: Nada
@ttcbabyodo I’ve had a “uterine pressure” which is the best way to describe it the past few days - but I think I’m just overthinking everything! FX For you!
@emeraldduchess a go-to for my semi picky household is an enchilada bake!

@adoo we have an enchilada casserole that I make almost every week. It's such an easy recipe and there's always enough for two meals.
