it's almost time to know...

well by tomorrow or thursday i should know if this cycle worked or not. i tested over the weekend (thinking af was due today and not wed/thurs) and got 2 neg and 1 who knows. I say who knows because it was originally - and then I looked 13-15 min later and it was slightly +. but it's one that says it's invalid after 10 min.

i ordered some more that are due to come tomorrow...so if af doesn't show in the morning, i'll test when ups comes. lol.

my cycles have been 25/26/25/26 so I guess this would be 25?? which would be tomorrow. Assuming it's negative. ... I'm planning on going out for a BIG margharita on Thursday. So trying to get obsessed about that. lol.

ttc

ok....so we are ttc...and i forgot how crazy I get during all this. and this time is exceptionally crazy. it probably didn't help that we decided for sure to try in the middle of the cycle.

so then af isn't due until mid next week and I swear I've been nauseous for the past 4 days and a few other "symptoms" that I don't want to blog about. I've never had early symptoms though. so am i pg and just my body is extra wacky this time...or is it all in my head?

It didn't take long for me to get pg with either of my daughters. just 2 months and 1 month. i know that is unbelievable and I have many friends struggling with infertility and i feel for them so much. Don't hate me though because i definitely get my share of wackiness. I have some serious issues (including randomly going into anaphylaxis since i was PG with dd1.--and that is ALWAYS fun.) plus a weird blood disorder that happens JUST while I'm pregnant. yup. me the weirdo. so IF i am... it's back to the high risk ob I'll go. i go back and forth with thinking it will be super quick this time...to thinking...my lucky streak of getting pg quickly could be gone. hopefully the rest of my health issues stay in check. at least we've figured out what one of the major causes of my anaphyaxis is...vitamin b12. what fun??!?! so no prenatals for me.

but for now...it's just a week of stressing and wondering and feeling like I'm going to throw up. of course my friend is convinces that these early "signs" means I'm pg with twins. i SO could not handle that. i think she's mean. lol

not sure why I'm rambling so much or how long i can hold out testing. ahh...the joy of ttc.

Logic v Gut

so part of the reason for one of my questions in the giveaway is because we are really contemplating #3. None of my close friends have 3 (or really are considering it) so that makes it seem wackier. lol but my one online friend who just had 3 last fall swears 2-3 is MUCH easier. I told her if we go for 3 and it's harder...one of them is moving in with her. lol



It seems all logic says 2 is the right number. our bedrooms work easier, we're overwhelmed sometimes with 2, the girls get along great, it'd be cheaper (we'd be done with 1/2 day care costs next year). but my gut says three.



the girls are 22 months apart and that was HARD. for at least a year. and it's not easy now...but easier. :) so we always said IF three we'd put almost 3 years between 2 and 3. however.... that time is quickly approaching. The first month we'd consider trying....would be NEXT MONTH! eek! I just don't know. I wouldn't want to wait more than a year more because I don't want too much space between then. 5,3 and a baby. Is that doable for us? (or 7,5, and a 2 yr old. lol)



and how will that change the girls' dynamic? will bean 2 because the "middle child"?? of course dh is 3 of 4. :) NO WAY ON FOUR THOUGH. ;)



Of course bean2 today switched from a crib to a mat at day care (she's been in a bed at home for 3 months now) and also used the potty for the first time there (and did it FOUR times!).



what wins? logic or the gut? and how do you know when????
