Anyone else had enough of this trying to conceive lark? I have to say I'm feeling it this month.
For the first time EVER the cruel bch that is AF was 4 days late in arriving. So I had a few days of uncertainty mixed with hopeful excitement while I p'doas and selected the pram I wanted on the Mothercare website (does everyone do this??) and I'm not gonna lie when I went to the toilet for the 100th time that day and realised that my friend AF had come to visit yet again, she did get called a c u next Tuesday! I dont normally use that type of language but this week it seemed fitting. When I told my husband over dinner "my period got called a c* today" he said it was the funniest thing I had ever said and that I should immediately put that as my facebook status. I declined. If only not to alert all my friends and family to the fact that we are desperate to get up the duff.
The world paints this lovely picture of trying for a baby...it'll be fun they say, think of all the sex you'll have they say! Your best friend gets preggo on the first try and everyone tells you how "it will happen in no time, don't worry about it!" They know nothing of the gut wrenching, soul destroying agony every month when you are sure you've done everything right, taken your vitamins, checked ovulation, eaten all the good stuff and had sex 15 times in 10 days and still no little bundle of joy is on the way! I vow not to give up as of course it's the means to a beautiful end but this journey is not what I thought I was signing up for
