It is so weird not tracking

My sister is getting married in September so we decided to take a month off from trying and it's kind of liberating.  But it is so weird not to know where exactly I am in my cycle.  I actually wish we could just take a few months off sometimes, but I feel that will my 33rd birthday looming in a few months time is not a luxury we have right now.  I just hate the disappointment month after month.  So far all of our cycles have been natural and I wonder how much more devastating it will be to have AF show up after being medicated.  I'm not sure if I'm ready for it yet, but I know it'll be coming up soon.  We just have to get my CD3 b/w and the hubbies s/a (all next week) before we find out what our plan of attack is.  So, while I'm happy to have a plan of attack, I'm terrified that whatever we do won't work.

  1. It's so strange to think back before TTC. I never knew where I was in my cycle, didn't care, never thought about it. I so wish I could go back but I think I'm already too far gone!

    8 months trying for us.

  2. I know what you mean about the month after month of disappointment. It's a little hard to stomach sometimes and there are moments when I wish I could walk away. But even when you take "off" for a cycle, it's hard not to think about it. I hope all of the testing goes well and it goes by fast.

  3. I know how you feel! I'm trying to take time off, but I'm being drawn to the OPKs. I'm not temping which is always nice, but I still feel like I should put forth some effort. Hope everything goes well with your upcoming testing!

  4. Good luck with your testing next week! I hope everything goes well and you get a great plan! I remember feeling so much better once we had a plan from our RE.
