Okay, I know that I'm technically NTNP right now, but we still DTD right around O time this cycle, so there was a chance. The past few days my bbs have been wicked sore (more than usual for IPS). While I hate to get my hopes up, there's always a part of my that's full of hope.
Today I woke up and my bbs were no longer sore. Now, I'm starting to cramp. I'm sure that AF is on her way. I'm fast approaching the 3 year mark of TTC (since we first tossed the b/c).
Isn't getting pg and having babies what our bodies are designed to do? Can someone please explain that to my body?

Oh Kim, I'm so sorry.... I can totally understand how you feel almost betrayed by your body. It is so frustrating! I have literally had conversations with my Ovaries and Uterus. DH laughs.
We were NTNP this past few cycles and it's still so hard! You try to convince yourself that it won't matter much cause you really "weren't trying", but it doesn't work. It's happened to me the 3 or 4 cycles we were NTNP.
No one should ever have to go through anything that we are all going through. It just shouldn't be this difficult! They say that adversity builds character.... well if that's true, we should all have character coming out of our ears!
Please know that I'm praying for you and hoping that you're just having some early pregnancy cramping. We're all here for you!!!

Thanks Cris  I'm sure I would have gone crazy long ago if I didn't have all of you here for support.

My fingers are crossed the cramps are NOT af cramps and your sore bbs mean af is on a 9 month vacation!! It does suck that our bodies don't seem to understand or cooperate with our best efforts!

I am so sorry. I hate it when I know she is coming but she isn't here yet. It really effects you deep down anyways. Have you seen a doctor? Have you ever done clomid or something?

I'm sorry Kim! I hate the TWW too and I'm just horrible at it...I hate those few days when it's ALL your mind will let you think about. And yes, I also wonder why my body doesn't want to work the way I want it to, but I try to stay hopeful that it will....someday. I'm sending you lots of  and just know that you are not alone in this, we've all got your back!

AF has not officially shown her face, but I see her coming up the sidewalk. I'm sure she'll be on my doorstep by tonight.

AF showed up on my doorstep this am, ugggh  Been off the pill since May 08, Finally made an appt to go talk to my doc august 11th. DH says "whatever happens, happens" where as I am ready to forge ahead & get this show on the road. Unfortunately this next cycle will surely be a bust because I am out of town pretty much the whole 6 prime days we should be BD'ing. Oh well I guess, just tack another month on to my long list ......

I'm so sorry! We all know how frustrating it is! And I am the same way, even the cycles we have been NTNP, I obsess just as much!

 I'm so sorry you are feeling all this right now.  I was hoping the witch would leave you alone on one of your NT/NP cycles...
