After all the drama last week, this week is proving to be pretty boring. Also, after the little bit of hope I had of conceiving on our own last week has pretty much disappeared. I'm not trying to be negative, just realistic. Plus, my temps have been kind of on the low side so that is never a good sign either. Oh well, it is what it is. I just look forward to next cycle and having a plan.
DH is away for eight LONG days for work. This is the longest we've ever been apart and I am not liking it a bit. It's only Tuesday and I am exhausted! Saturday and Sunday were nice and relaxing because it was sooooo nice outside and Keegan and I just hung out and played outside quite a bit. But now that I am back to work, it has been a different story. Being a working, single mom is not an easy task. Ugh! Morning have so busy and I feel bad because I am pretty much rushing Keegan for everything - waking, eating, dressing, etc. Poor kiddo. It has to be done though or we wouldn't be on the road until noon! This morning, I told Keegan to think of something fun he'd like to do after daycare and we would have a "date".
I cannot wait until Friday night when DH come home! He doesn't fly in until 11pm either. I am going to get a sitter and go pick him up. It is about an hour drive from our house but it will be worth the two hour roundtrip drive just to see him and catch up on the week!
All this disruption from our normal routine is also making the 2ww go by quickly.

My DH travels now and then, and it can be so tough being a single mom on those days. It makes me realize just how much DH pitches in to help (and I need that reminder from time to time since I still feel like I do more than he does!! ;) ). I hope the week goes by quickly for you. Also, thanks so much for your words of supportive and encouragement. It means so much to have someone understand my conflicted thoughts. No one understand them quite like another mom of one struggling to conceive #2. So thank you!!!

It's funny how two "strangers" run parallel lives. Not only are we cycle buds TTC #2 with male factor infertility, but my DH is also going to be gone on a work trip. He leaves on Thursday for 10 days, which is also the longest we've been apart. I guess that is a bit of a stretch for "parallel lives", but I found it amusing. :)
Still crossing fingers and wishing you luck with this cycle.
