Aug 2WW

Yaybaby, I have to keep repeating the blood tests until my levels get up to 2000 and then I get to have an ultrasound. I'm really hoping that happens this week. I've been trying to will my body to produce more hcg, lol!!! Honestly though, I've been trying my best to not think about the low levels. DH read that stress can effect your hcg levels, so I've been trying to relax. It's proving very difficult! I took my digital hpt today and was very happy with the result as I feel it's right on target! The 2-3 means weeks since ovulation and I'm 3 weeks 2 days since ovulation. It makes me feel better even though I know it's a range.

Happy some people have good news but hopefully next month is our lucky month. I don't really want a May due date because it's the end of the school year and that means I don't get much maternity leave, maybe 3 weeks. If I have a baby in the summer, I can take 12 weeks at the beginning of the year. Of course, after my last ttc fiasco with dd2, I would love to get pregnant fast again!!

One interesting thing atomic told me was to stop feeling and acting so defeated in the 2ww because it's a recipe for another girl. I've noticed a lot of boy moms here seem so confident in the 2ww so I'm going to take a tip from you guys and go through the 2ww expecting I'll end up pregnant. You all seem to get pregnant fast so you must be doing something right!

Quinn, I'm sorry if my posting here upset you. I didn't mean to upset anyone. FX you get your bfp quickly! It's interesting what you said about outlook during the 2ww. My sister (a girl mom) generally has a negative outlook during her 2ww's. It's just the way she perceives everything. It's almost like she focuses on the worst so that if something better happens, she can be excited about it. I am the opposite. I have a positive outlook and like to focus on the best outcome. I generally am not sad when something other than what I was hoping for happens because that's life. I wonder if somehow it's related to our natural tendency towards boys or girls. It's intriguing to think about! Thanks for bringing it up! :)

I will say a prayer for you momamia! I hope its a sticky baby! Good thinking trying to relax.

Quinn - I hope there is some truth to your statement because I've been feeling defeated every month lol. But I remember feeling the same when we had DS so who knows. My lifestyle is normally very boy friendly though so that probably has more to do with it.

Thanks yaybaby! :)

Don't be sorry at all! I'm glad I could see another perspective. I've been pregnant fast twice and slow once. I'm just starting our second month ttc so there's no need for me to panic already.

I love that people have a positive perspective and I wish I naturally did too. I'm going to assume I'm pregnant this next 2ww!!
