So here I sit with August 3rd being now 1 year on the journey for take home baby # 2.
it has been the longest year of my life yet at the same time it has gone so fast.
Here I sit 3 losses later and A/F might be starting tomorrow..... How freaky is that if my cycles match dates again.

Big HUGS. I hit my one year "anniversary" of TTC #2 last month and it was very hard to take. I hope and pray that neither of us has to hit a two-year anniversary!

*sigh* I know what you mean about this being so much harder and taking so much longer than any of us ever expected. I started having cramping last night and some this morning, no AF yet, but it was enough cramping to keep me from even worrying with testing today. Looks like we're probably gonna be cycle buddies again *hugs*

I had a hard time sleeping last night with the cramps and I got up and even put a pad on thinking it was coming in my sleep but its still not here yet. But all day I am cramping still and have brown discharge so i know it won't be long now. I will be happy to be cycle buddies with you again

Tell me about it.... And after 1 year, it becomes 2 and after 2 years it becomes 3 and so on... there's many of us who can empathize.
