not feeling optimistic
I went back and looked at my posts from the cycle where I got pregnant with the twins. At this stage in that cycle I was having sore boobs, nausea, cramping and spotting. I have none of those things right now. This has me feeling somewhat discouraged.
i'm pretty sure pessimism is an essential part of the process. i don't think anyone makes it out of the 2ww until they've embraced it, regardless of how it turns out, so i'm going to keep on hoping.
After a long battle with infertility - a lot of tears, a lot of depression, a lot of shots and invasive medical stuff - I am now the proudest mother of twins. I am having so much fun being the mom to these little blessings, so much fun in fact that we are now embarking on another round of treatment - going to give it a try with a couple of our frozen embryos.

I've removed some of my IF history from this site due to some unwelcome attention. But I am happy to share my IF story with others who are facing a similar situation. Just email me.

I hope you're wrong!

And I add that I think each time you get pregnant you feel different.
My last time I was so convinced I had to have the same metallic taste in my mouth.
As it turns out both didn't lead to babies - but I did feel very different.
Thinking of you - and also hope you are wrong.

Hang in there. My fingers are still crossed for you and I also agree that every pregnancy feels different.
