I'm tired...

Monica • I`m a 30 year old military wife and mother to our 9 year old son, Rylan and daughter, Maci who is 4.
I needed to vent to you ladies because I knew you'd understand. (Sorry if this is long). DH and I have been TTC for 5 months now. I know that isn't crazy long as some of you wonderful ladies, but I'm tired! This was our last month of TTC before a deployment takes him away. We won't be able to try again until November 2014! I just took a PG test (12 DPO, AF due 4/6) and it was negative so there went our last chance...I'm just so tired.
​ 
​* I'm tired of decaffeinated coffee.
​* I'm tired of spending $100 a month on OPKs and PG test and fertility lubes. 
​* I'm tired of peeing on damn sticks every day.
​* I'm tired of swallowing huge prenatal vitamins along with other vitamins daily.
​* I'm tired of feeling disappointed every time I see that one lonely line.
​* I'm tired of seeing pregnancy announcements on FB. 
​* I'm tired of my husband not understanding why this is so hard on me.
​* I'm tired of timing BD to fit fertile week. 
​* I'm tired of second guessing my body symptoms all the time.
​* I'm tired of my fingers being ^up there^ all the time checking fluids and cervix positions.
​* I'm tired of people asking me "when are y'all going to have another baby. Rylan is almost 4, you know!"
​* I'm tired of feeling like my body is failing me.  
​
​I'm sure there are many more I am missing right now. But overall I am just TIRED! I hate that I'm not pregnant yet. But I'm going to take these next few months to regroup, get healthier and more comfortable with my body, and spend all the time I can with my son. But bottom line, no matter how tired I am, we will keep trying when DH gets home. Thanks for letting me vent ladies :)
