For the home

How cute is this art I found on Etsy? Thinking about buying it for our master bath!

Another period has come and gone, each one seems to be a little more painful than the last. Not sure if its my body or perhaps that I am finding myself far less tolerant of them these days but this last one was the most painful I've had in my life!
I know I've said it before but I have make respect and love for the couples that do this for years on end with no result. I can't even imagine.
I am lowering my coffee intake a little more this month in the hopes that helps, though I don't know how much of a difference it will make but worth a try.
I like getting to plan for a family together but sometimes I feel the unexpected is way easier! Sheesh.
