Okay so my temps went way down today, when they should have gone up or at least stayed the same if i was to have any hope that i was pregnant this month...

so i will not be holding a baby in my arms before the date of my loss...and for all i know i wont even be pregnant then!

so i know ive said this before..i dont want a november or december baby... so ive decided that the next two months i will look into getting some vitamon E for both of us to start taking along with the stuff we are already taking... ill look for some red clover tea.. or something... and ill eat lots of baby carrots... i will NOT use OPKs i will NOT count days.. i will NOT tell my DH what days we have to BD... i will NOT stress about getting pregnant the next two months...

i havent decided if ill temp or not.. i like temping its fun.. and i like seeing how my body works...

then when May rolls around i will start really TRYING again.. OPKs.. im gonna try the robitussin trick.. im gonna do everything i can to make it happen... that would put our kids 3 years apart.. and lots of people to do that right! not weird....

im just really bummed today... I HATE AND DESPISE TTC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i guess a break will be good for me... my SIL keeps telling me ill get pregnant on our "break" just when i DONT want to get pregnant... i guess if it happens ill be thrilled but really angry that it couldnt happen just ONE month earlier...

and dont tell me its not over until AF shows.... My temps are going down.. its finished...

Hey Em...so sorry you are down in the dumps. I know how difficult this process is & how frustrating it is. Hang in there. It will hopefully happen sooner than later!

I am sorry Em. You sound so sad today. I think maybe a short break will be rejuvinating. We all need one every once in a while. I'll probably be right here with you. I mean, next month is the first month we'll be trying again and if it doesn't happen which it most likely won't I don't think we'll be trying in March because I am trying to avoid a December baby too (of course either way I would be thrilled if it happened). Before, my dd would have been in the beginnning of the month but with the m/c messing up my cycle I will not be due around 25th or 26th. ERRR

I really hope that the short break rejuvinates you and when you come back you get a BFP the first month you try.

I hope a break is just what you need. It must feel like a relief to know next month you can just sit back and relax. Hope you are feeling better about it all really soon....

I cant hear you. You have to be pregnant this month We are supposed to be pregnant together. I totally do understand you wanting a break though. I was going to do the same thing next month if it didnt happen this month. I hate that darn thermometer maybe it is broken.

I'm sorry you are having a rough day and that things are not going likie you wanted.

I never really wanted a holiday baby either, but I just don't want to wait two more months to start TTC again

I am glad that you have at least come up with a good plan

Like your SIL said, watch, you'll get preggers in the next two months.

I'm sorry you even had to decide to take a break!!!!
