i can't help but feeling a bit down. i feel like there is a greater being up there trying to tell me to give up ttc. my DH travels for work and EVERY time he has to go, it's EXACTLY right when i O. he told me that he has to travel in early november. well low and behold, it's right when i'm set to O again!!!!! it happens every time. there hasn't been ONE time that he has traveled, since we've started ttc, that he hasn't been gone in the 2ww or during AF. it's always when i'm Oing. praying to O early, but doubt that will happen.
sorry for the rant!!!!

(((HUGS)))
That is so frustrating! I'm sorry--I really hope you O early this cycle, before DH leaves...
How long will he be gone? Maybe a late ovulation would be okay, too?
Don't give up! It will happen---and I know it sounds so cliche, and everything---but I think for all of us who are trying so hard, and want a baby so badly...it will happen when it's "meant to happen" and it will be THAT MUCH SWEETER for all of us.
Hang in there!

Im sorry hun! I know how you feel. My DH literally works 24/7 right now so we never get any great timed BDing in! It sucks! I hope that you still manage to get in some great timed BDing and end up with a nice BFP after all of this!

I am hoping we at least have a chance this cycle without clomid. One of my friends said watch, this will be the month you get pregnant. My big worry is AJ will share a birthday with his sibling and not just a birthday month! LOL!

I know how you feel - DH is a sales director so he's always on the road. It made TTC much more stressful some months. And believe, I am familiar with that nagging voice in your head that keeps whispering: "Get a clue! Maybe this isn't meant to be." Sometimes I smack that thought right out of my head, other days I have a selfish cry and let myself feel sad. Just remember that the plan you have in your head isn't the plan God necessarily has for you but everything will make sense over time. Good luck!!

i know you ladies are right!!! i'm just trying to stay positive. it is getting REALLY REALLY hard!!!! but i too, shall keep plugging along. it just sometimes sucks knowing that your cycle is going to be a bust even before you O! DH is going to be gone a week, so Oing that late is pretty unlikely!!! heavy sigh. thanks for the responses.

I'm sorry you were having a rough one Lynda... I know how you're feeling. This cycle, DH is due to go out of town for a re-enactment right on the days I'm due to O. I actually asked him if I should stress myself out or catch a cold, cause I know those would delay my Oing.  He said no and that it would happen when it will happen. I keep telling him that we need to BD in order for it to happen!
Anyhow, As frustrating as it is for you, keep positive and have faith that you will be a Mommy again! I have a feeling it'll be sooner than you think!

miracles do happen! I'm always praying for you. Maybe this month is just the warm up for next month- when, G-d willing, you'll get pregnant.

 Same thing happen to me this month, DH was out of town during O time and he returned the same day I O'd, but I'm sure it was probably too late.
Like Cheryl said, hopefully this month was just warm up for next month. Hang-in-there, Lynda, it will happen!

thanks gals. you are great!!!!! we decided we're going to get up real early and BD on wednesday when he leaves in the morning (oh i'm so not a morning gal) but you gotta do what you gotta do!!! we're going to use pre-seed (hopefully spermies can live longer - with the clomid, my CM is almost non-existant) and PRAY to the Oing/Fertility God's, Angels, Spirit Guides and anyone else up there who is willing to listen and might help!!!!!
we'll see.....
Cheryl, it's great to see you here again!!!
