I have been boring lately! I am either 3dpo (by temps) or 2dpo (by monitor). I haven't taken my temps since January, so I'm not used to going by what they say anymore, but my friend K has been charting hers, and I promised way back in the winter that I'd try so we can compare charts. Finally I have lived up to my word!!!
I was having lunch with my in-laws yesterday at Whol.e Foods, and my mother in law was being super attentive to this mom and toddler who were struggling to get set up to eat at the bar. I couldn't help but slant the situation to mean that she is becoming preoccupied with young children and getting somewhat impatient with the lack of young children at our house, therefore needing to outlet her energies on a random mom and her wiggly offspring. Of course that is my own left-behind opinion of the events, and it could be that she would have helped a group of young professionals in the same way. After all, she is a generally helpful person. Yes....
Not to mention Mr. A's cousin (his mom's sister's son) who we are not especially close to is getting married in October (news to us- we haven't talked to him in years- she wasn't even sure we'd be invited) (except I did receive a bridal shower invitation that I assumed was for the fiance but I hadn't even heard her name), and I noted that we hadn't talked about going. After all, a little notice/communication of the wedding would be nice, no? Mr. A's mom gave me the stereotypical-with-eyebrows-raised "Well it would be nice if you could go." Yes yes, I'm sure it would be. Hey, maybe I can blame our absence on being 14 weeks pregnant....
And speaking of that, Mr. A has another cousin and that guy's wife who struggled with getting pregnant for a year or so. But before they had troubles, the wife had no qualms about asking any person (despite their circumstances) why they weren't trying to have a baby. Their other cousin/wife who could not have biological children? No problem. After that cousin/wife had a failed Russian adoption? What's the difference? Us after we'd only been married 3 months? Obviously fine! Then they had trouble themselves and wouldn't you know that they are one of the "stories" you hear about how they were 2 weeks away from adopting a baby and then they found out they were pregnant. Great. Just who I want to see if we are not expecting our own bundle.
Hmph.
It would be awesome if this cycle works! I do have a good feeling about it, but we all know how that goes!!

A good feeling is better than no feeling at all and much better than a pessimistic feeling. Take the optimism when you can get it, it's fleeting enough. :)
I agree! I think it is so great you are so positive. I can only think that optimistic energy helps make all systems go! :) Thanks for your comment too- it made me feel a lot better. That is really neat about your friend and I love the idea of hanging a prayer. How sweet!
I hope this cycle works for you, too!!!!
Yeah, I'm convinced at this point that if I ever do get pregnant, it will be timed so as to teach me some sort of spiritual lesson. Convenient though it might be to have the timing work out to help me deal with some snarky fertile, it doesn't seme likely, does it? :)
