Bee and F are happily married and told constantly how we would "Make the best parents!" After three early losses, we went through standard RE procedures and even though some days it was hard to stay hopeful, we were trying to believe deep down that it WAS going to happen. This was just the road we were on to get there;) Our little muffin, Brynn ELizabeth is our greatest blessing.

Not much
I honestly don't know what to say. In three days time I will, but not now. I know these things: Yes my boobs hurt way earlier than usual in the tww. Like by 5 days. This did happen when I had one of the chemical pregnancies. I am tired. and That's it. I am not feeling it either which is a big indictor for me. I am trying to focus on this being my anniversary weekend. We are going to have so much fun and I just hope I don't ruin it by being sad. It's just that we are also coming up on our anniversary of trying too and that is NOT one I will celebrate

Here I go again...on my own
Why is the Whitesnake song "Here I go Again" playing on a loop in my brain? Oh that's right, because here I go again. I am back in the two week wait. I was not heartbroken last mont when af showed up. Not thrilled of course, but not heartbroken. I think I will be equally ok this month. I think it has something to do with:
1. My optimistic outlook isn't so optimistic anymore. Not that I am hopeless that it will EVER appen, just that I don't expect it to any time soon.
2. I am excited about the holiday season. It is such a great and pleasant distraction.
So back to the Whitesnake song, I have to laugh out loud(literally) that I am aplying it to infertility. But it really is quite fitting.

I dont know where Im going
But, I sure know where Ive been
Hanging on the promises
In songs of yesterday
An Ive made up my mind,
I aint wasting no more time
But, here I go again
Here I go again
Tho I keep searching for an answer,
I never seem to find what Im looking for
Oh lord, I pray
You give me strength to carry on,
cos I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams
An here I go again on my own
Goin down the only road Ive ever known,
Like a hobo* I was born to walk alone
An Ive made up my mind
I aint wasting no more time
Im just another heart in need of rescue,
Waiting on loves sweet charity
An Im gonna hold on
For the rest of my days,
cos I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams
An here I go again on my own
Goin down the only road Ive ever known,
Like a hobo* I was born to walk alone
An Ive made up my mind
I aint wasting no more time
But, here I go again,
Here I go again,
Here I go again,
Here I go...
An Ive made up my mind,
I aint wasting no more time
An here I go again on my own
Goin down the only road Ive ever known,
Like a hobo I was born to walk alone

Hello. Bee are you there??
I am doing one thing over the next month. I am trying to find myself. I have been focusing almost totally on getting pregnant, and after having a meltdown on Saturday, I decided enough is enough. I need to be happy about other things again. The thing is, I am a lucky girl. I LOVE everything about my life. I have the greatest Husband, i could not have picked a better career for myself, I have a fun family. I have good friends. I have fun a lot.
So even as I write this, why am I not more grateful? I don't know but I plan to be. I decided that I will mark down the days I need to BD and after that I will do my VERY VERY VERY best not to count days or anything like that. I am not going to stop trying, but I am going to stop obsessing. My best girlfriend at work just told me she plans to start trying in May. Why does that feel like a sort of deadline for me? Will I always feel a sense of "Please let me be pregnant by then."
I need to let go of that.

14 DPO
Things don't look good internet. My boobs stopped hurting and I feel that AF will be here by Sunday at the latest.
I woke up last night at 4 in the morning after a dream that I had a positive HPT. I woke up and I said out loud "No it was just a dream!" I couldn't fall back to sleep because I realized I lost my ONE symptom(sore boobs) and kind of lost it(my mind) for a good 5 minutes. This is seriously getting harder and harder. Clomid for nothing!! I am really sad today but trying to keep my cool. I just want a life without this CONSTANT disappointment.

I've been lapped.
I am so torn on whether or not I am being a selfish person. I have been dreading being lapped by my friends with their second babies. Last night was the first one. A few of my girls and I went to dinner last night and my friend said she was pregnant again. I was speechless while everyone else oohed and ahhed. I felt sick. I wanted to run to my car.
Then conversation about how she can't believe how fast it happened and she really can't believe she has to go through pregnancy again. I was dumbfounded. I could NOT believe she would say this in front of me. I mean I get that she deserves to talk about her pregnancy, but she couldn't filter talking about woe is me my belly is going to get so big again(She is a size 2). I really have been trying to deal with the fact that the world will go on if I don't have children, but is it too much to ask for your friends, your close friends, to be a little sympathetic. Even in the midst of their own happiness? Am I wrong? Because I keep trying to understand how I would be if I were on their side of the fence...I keep thinking I would be different.
