Toss up

This week could be the best week of our lives or really rough. I am going to either start my period this week or get a BFP. The problem w/ this is that we also have 2 friends having babies this week. One Tuesday & one Thursday, and if AF shows it will probably be Wednesday or Thursday!! Smack dab in the middle of two births!!!

I have not been obsessing this cycle. I have been in a good place emotionally, but now I am starting to freak out a little. It is bad enough to see AF month after month BUT this time I will also have to go see 2 newborn babies!! I don't know if my heart can handle it. Both of our friends know about our struggle to conceive and that we will find out this week if the IUI worked. They both said that I don't have to come to the hospital if AF comes, which is really sweet b/c they understand how hard it will be. I still have every intention of going to see their beautiful babies, but we will see what happens. Hopefully I will have good news when I visit them and will be laying in that hospital w/ my new baby in 9 months.


*Update*

My friend who was supposed to have a C-section on Thursday just texted me that she is having the baby TODAY!! This is actually good b/c if AF shows it will be after I have to go see both babies. That way I still have a little hope when I go see them, instead of possibly being totally devestated.

Here's to hoping you get nothing but great news this week!

Crossing my fingers for you!

Ps- So I take it you're not going to test? Just wait it out for AF?

Melissa,
I am too scared to test!! My last IUI gave me so much hope and I started testing way too early and it was heart-wrenching to see that BFN so many times!!

I hope that you get your positive. How do you know when you could test like Melissa said? That is very sweet of your friends being so considerate.

Boo, AF! Don't come! We want a BFP!!!

If Af shows, remember that you are stronger than you think you are, and you've come this far! You can keep going!

I hope this is the week you get your BFP! Be sure to soak up lots of lovely newborn time. :) I thought it would be hard when good friends of ours had their daughter a few months ago, but I ended up loving my time with them at the hospital.

I'm in a 2WW and I'm too scared to test, too! I think I'll just wait it out...
