This blog was started as a way to work through the grief of losing my baby March 9, 2011. I found reading stories of other women comforting while I've been going through this and hope that I can help anyone else experiencing the same thing.

Waiting

TTC is basically a big waiting game. From the beginning:

#1. Wait for AF (period) to show up
#2. Wait for AF to go away
#3. Wait for a positive OPK
#4. Wait for Ovulation after the positive OPK
#5. Wait for about 8 days and then start peeing on a stick way too early
#6. Continue to pee on sticks while really just waiting to see if AF comes again
#7. Eventually either AF or a BFP will show up

That's a lot of waiting. People call the time between ovulation and the next AF or the BFP the Two Week Wait (2WW). But I maintain that there are two separate 2WWs. The 2ww between period and O and the 2WW between O and the AF or BFP. I am now in the 2WW between O and AF. I'm 5DPO and just hanging out waiting to see what happens. Month 3 TTC.

  1. Hey there, in the 2WW over here, too... I plan to test on the 26th - my original due date - risky, but it will be a bad day anyway, so this can at least make it a better one.
