I don't know what it is about this cycle, but I am finally feeling happy again about TTC. Maybe I am just having a string of "good days" that have been so elusive to me since my m/c. Maybe it is because I got to meet my BFF's precious 2 week old son today and holding him felt SO PERFECT and she had a loss before she got pregnant with him. It gave me renewed hope. I feel like I have come to terms that I may be trying for a while and as much as I can't stand the 2ww and everything... I am ok with this process and just going along for the ride right now.

I am also feeling some hope about this cycle. I O'ed really early for me (CD14 instead of CD17-22) and even though I wasn't quite ready for the big O yet, we still had good timing. Who knows if this is the one. I think this past cycle I had a fertilized eggie that didn't implant which is why I had a week of spotting and a late AF. I'll never know what happened because I refused to test while spotting. I just HOPE that the same things don't keep happening to me over and over. So far in my TTC journey I've had months with bad timing, months with great timing but AF showed up right on time, months where I spotted forever and started late, and of course one pregnancy that didn't work out. I don't think there are too many more ways for Mother Nature to torture me... she must be coming through for me soon.

Good for you, girl! Glad to see your spirits are up. It WILL happen for you & I will be excited when it does. TTC is such a mysterious thing. I was talking to a co-worker who said she got preggo w/ her DD 11 days after they decided to TTC but now they've been at it over a year TTC #2 and now she found out she has PCOS. I don't know if I'm making sense right now because I'm tired...if I'm not, please excuse me. It's been a long day!

I'm so glad your spirits are up! Hopefully that sticky bfp is just around the corner. I think your BD timing this month is pretty darn good!

Um so you O'd Dec 3rd which means you could test Dec 14th--THE DAY I GET TO THE STATES!!!!! Thats got to be some cosmic sign! *mental not add FRER to gift pile to take to Kyle's house*
Either way I am glad your feeling better about the whole thing. And most people I know who m/c naturally (not D&C) have a weird spotty or clotty icky period the following month.

Yay Kyle! I remember you talking about that friend, congrats on her bundle of joy! That is inspirational

I think there is something to be said for ovulating sooner then you ever have before. My positive cycle I O'ed 2 days sooner then I EVER did before. I think my eggs were just not that great by the time CD 18 rolled around. I am rooting for ya as always!

I'm so glad that you have a positive outlook I never had a loss, but TTC can be a real downer sometimes, which is the exact opposite of how it should be, ya know?
