Taking a (much needed) break...
May. 6th, 2005 02:31 amI'm not pregnant. My period did come about 4 weeks ago, and I was really down. I went away for a women's retreat weekend, and it was just what I needed. I've relaxed, and am mostly taking an indefinite break.
DH says I can have all of the HPTs I want, but nothing else. I have a bunch of OPKs, but we aren't using them. No sex on demand, and I'm not really even charting (just enought to know that I haven't O'd yet this cycle - CD28). It's working for us. I still know my body from all of the time charting, and I do let him know what I think is going on, but it's no big deal.
I still hope it happens, but I'm not holding my breath (or my pee). I'm trying to concentrate on other things a bit. I have been so obsessed and depressed for the last year that it was taking a toll on us and my marriage.
I kind of took a self-imposed break from IDOB, until I could be more objective, and have thrown myself into web design for the past few weeks. I even picked up a few commisions.
Who knows - it may still work out for us.
