Decided to take a little break...

from ttc.

I found that temping, charting and twoweekwait.com was turning into an obsession, so I needed to leave all of that for a while. I will just figure out my o time and do what comes naturally.

Bd'g on demand really takes the fun out of it, so I just need a month off.

I'll still post and lurk...cause LIF is my only venting outlet.

Thanks ladies!!

Good luck! Just think maybe when you stop trying so hard... it just may happen on it's own without all the hoopla!! (at least I hope it does for us!! ) ... sometimes we all need a break from it!

Sounds like a good idea. and

Re: Decided to take a little break...

Best of luck to you. I dont blame you for wanting to take the time off from temping and charting. I too would become obsessed and thats why we arent going that route just yet. We are counting to day 10 and thats about it. That in and of itself is causing me enough anxiety to the point where I dont think it will happen easily for us. And, like you, I dont like the idea of BDing on demand. Thats an awful lot of pressure on both people.

You arent alone. I cannot vent at home either. DH wants children as much as I do but hes just very quiet about it and I think he doesnt want me to get anxious about pregnancy until I am actually expecting. My single friends can't relate and my married friends with kids aren't terribly helpful and sometimes discouraging.

Vent all you want here. We are here for you.

Hi,
I know exactly how you feel, we had to take a break a couple of times as well.


I have never done charting but between my Clearblue easy digital monitor, trying to work out my work schedule (being in town) - and being a former POAS addict I know what you mean.

I think taking a break is positive. What worked for us is when I thought or knew I was in ovlation mode we would go out for dinner or have a few drinks and things were more like they should have been.
Enjoy your break

good luck & for whenever you need it.

Good luck! It seems like a few ladies here have actually gotten pregnant on a break or soon after.
