Harder. The only thing that made it easier was to totally disconnect from anything children, and setting the TTC date. Now I'm totally at peace with waiting

Harder, definitely but I love it here.
Right now, the wait in general isn't too hard, since my son is only 7 weeks and dealing with an infant and 2 year old isn't easy but I know I will get to a point where being pregnant is all I want and it will be hard every time I see a pregnancy ticker.

I think it helps, but there are some days that nothing makes it easier.

Easier. It give me an outlet for my baby fever. If I were to tell DH about it, he would probably try to pressure me into TTC, and THAT would be hard. Plus, he's a guy. They don't fully get it, nore do they fully understand.
I don't have a lot of friends outside of online that know when we will be TTC or our plans. We sometimes compare baby fever, but the one is kinda NTNP (I think) unless she is just using w/d... She did try FAM with w/d for a while, but I guess they just do w/d no matter the time, so she just gave up on the charting.
Oh, I do have to add, it does make it a LOT harder when I see the Oops pregnancies or the NTNP, etc. I try to ignore those posts, but the titles are still there, and then I just get depressed.

Definitely depends on the day, but I think it helps because I'm becoming more prepared for what's to come. I've learned so much since joining JM! So I say easier for the most part.

Depends on how I'm feeling and what most of the topics and posts are about that day.

I think it would be easier for me if we had a "set" TTC date. Right now it feels like I don't have anything to look forward to

I think a bit of both. Easier cause I know am not the only one here waiting, and harder cause baby fever just spikes whenever am on JM
