Ovulation - 26 Aug 2020 Cycle Babes

Hi! Anyone have this cycle with me?

A little bit about myself:

Hi! 👋🏻 I’m Stephanie. I’m 33 years old, married, have a full time career and trying for our first child. We’ve only ACTIVELY been trying since January 2020, after we had a miscarriage earlier that month. I had been on some kind of birth control for most of my reproductive life- trying really hard not to have a child until I had a career and married - I’m not super religious, just really, really goal oriented and didn’t want to have a child during a time I knew I wouldn’t be a good mom. I did get pregnant once (while on the pill) when I was 28, and decided to terminate the pregnancy for various reasons: xbf was not in the picture, was working towards career goals and didn’t have the financial stability I thought my future children deserved. I do not regret my decision. I’m only sharing this because now, after realizing how hard it is to have a baby after trying and trying, I feel as though the universe is punishing me... I know that’s just me being hard on myself. Anyways... I have MS just diagnosed in March 2020; I get the usual stupid comments like “oh should you even be trying? Don’t you think it would make you a bad mother?” My answer usually is “there are so many bad parents out there without MS- and MS wasn’t a choice.”

I’m so excited for this journey and cannot wait time be a mom - hopefully in the near future! 💕💕💕
