I'm trying not to get hopeful too soon... Period was supposed to start today...but she's a no show. I'm telling myself not to think too much into it. I've a list of reasons why it hasn't started yet.

1. I've been exercising. I read exercise can cause a missed period. I've been working out 4-5 times a week because after last month's disappointment, I vowed to make some changes that I hoped would help us conceieve. Im overweight, so being more active is only going to help my life in general. But maybe I've sabotaged myself.....

2. My period is irregular. Today is day 28, ...but i sometimes have cycles that are 30 days.. or 32 days ... or 25 days. It sucks because I never know when I'm really "late". My last 2 cycles were right at 28 dasys, so maybe.. but maybe I'll wake up tomorrow and be disappointed.

3. I've been sick. Could that contribute? Knowing my luck, probably.

And.... that's it. My 3 reasons why I'm trying not to be hopeful. I turn 35 next week....ugh. It's that Advanced Maternal Age or whatever that makes any pregnancy that I pray that I have marked as High Risk.

...Joy. 🙄 I've had 1 confirmed miscarriage, 1 probable miscarriage, and we've been trying for almost a year now. Lord, prayers for me and all women who are trying to be mothers.
