Something Uninteresting

I'm again late for my period.  I just thought everyone should know.  I usually have a 26 day cycle, and I am on cycle day 28.  Going to wait a good long time to test this time since I wasted my tests last month during my longest cycle ever.  Probably 2 weeks from Friday, since that will be really late and a payday.  Or maybe just on the 1st when I get paid again.  That is a whole week late.  But I will only test then if I have reason to believe I might be pregnant, you know peeing all the time (more than I already do), being sick alot, being super tired even though I sleep enough, otherwise I will wait.  I REALLY hate my body when it comes to anything hormonal.

    Have you heard of the fertility awareness method? It has helped me so much to know exactly when my period is coming. Takes out a lot of the guess work of when you can get pregnant, too. "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" by Toni Weschler explains the method in detail. It makes things less stressful for me. HTH.

    Rachel, I do the same thing (another way we're alike). I tell myself if I have X number of symptoms, then I'll test! Once I had like 7 signs, but still no baby!

    Sometime I am sure I MUST be pregnant, but (obviously) I never am. I figure that when I finally do get knocked up, either naturally or with a doctor's help, I will be someone that doesn't have any symptoms for the first like 2 months and will be certain I am not pregnant when I am. Or I might just start puking as soon as I get pregnant and be like "oh wow, this time is WAY different".

    At least we are learning to be patient right?

    @chicago - I have that book :) I know WAY to much about FAM and used to take my BBT everyday and track religiously. I need to start to again, since my husband and I are looking to start fertility treatments of some sort in the next 6 months or so, but for some reason I find it more disappointing when I start my period when I was being good and tracking it. Its like I gave it my best effort and still failed. At least this way I am hardly trying. I'm a little weird LOL

Things That Annoy Infertile Girls (or Maybe Just Me?) - Flashback Friday

This was actually one of my more popular posts when it was first published, but I still thought I would share it again.  Any additions to the post are in pink, as usual :) Accidental Pregnancies - So I have been trying for years to get pregnant, you go slut around and accidentally get pregnant? Immediate Pregnancies - You quit taking your birth control last month and now you are pregnant? People Who Give You Retarded Advice -            - Just stop trying and you will get pregnant            - My friend adopted a baby and got pregnant right away, you should do that            - Get drunk, people always get pregnant when they are drunk (Yes, they do.

Why I Choose Christian Light Education Homeschool Curriculum

Last summer I decided that I was going to homeschool our foster daughters while they were on summer vacation.  There were two reasons for this: 1) Two of the three girls were behind academically.  I really hoped that by working through the summer we could help them get on track for the next school year.  They left our house soon after school started, so I don't know how well it worked. 2) I don't allow my children much in the way of screen time, and these girls were accustomed to having TV and tablets in their rooms all the time.  So they never really knew what to do with themselves.  I figured school work for the morning would help with that dilemma. Choosing a curriculum was difficult for me.  I know that some people bounce around and change curriculum a lot, but whatever I got, I hoped I would like enough to use the non-consumables with Little Guy.  I don't like wasting money, and I hate the idea of some topics falling through the cracks because different curricu

Breastfeeding An Adopted Child - The Tenth Day of Christmas

Today we are hearing from Teglene.  Her story is pretty long, but trust me, it is totally worth reading through!  She also has a great blog, called The Breastfeeding Mother . I always knew I wanted to breastfeed my children. I couldn ’t imagine doing it any differently. I was lucky enough to give birth to two beautiful boys and I enjoyed breastfeeding them both. Not that it was easy or without struggle, but it was what I wanted to do and loved doing it. In fact, I liked it so much, and felt so passionate about breastfeeding that I became a La Leche League Leader, so that I could help other breastfeeding moms. I really took to the idea of “Mothering through breastfeeding”. It wasn ’t just a feeding method for me, but a relationship with my child. My husband and I always talked about adopting a child who needed a family. We thought, if we can’t have kids of our own then we will adopt. Even if we can have kids of our own, maybe we will still adopt. After the birth of our
