The Year of the Tiger

Today is the beginning of the year of the Tiger, which is my year.

So I was thinking if we manage to get pregnant this time I will have a little Tiger cub! I'm 6dp5dt, I am tempted to test but I'm also very afraid of the disappointment and knowing that it may be a bit early. So I think I will test on wednesday given that I have to go to the clinic for my intralipid and it will be 9dp5dt, basically 14DPO so I'll definitely know by then.

I feel ok, sleeping pattern is crazy as usual on steroids and not fun at all, but sure if it's worth it I don't mind. I feel positive too, and of course also worried about how I'll react if the positivity is all in my head rather than on an HPT. Only a few more days....

Are we the same age (35)? I'm a tiger too.
Good luck on Wed. I hope you have an attic conversion and a baby to look forward to this year!

My acupuncturist said the year of the tiger is a great year to have a baby! We will hope for that!! Thinking of you!

I am hoping that Tiger will be a VERY good year for you! Waiting is the pits and steroid sleep not very lulling, but I hope the next few days pass in the blink of an eye. And that the first Wednesday of tiger year provides clear proof that your cub is coming:)

How cool would that be?...a tiger mama having a tiger cub?! Sounds perfect.

And thank you for your gracious invite to come stay in your future attic conversion...I'm having visions of two little tiger cubs playing together while their mamas visit!

A prayer on my lips and a wish in my heart for your POAS/beta!

Sorry the steriods are messing with your sleep patterns. I think it is good luck to have a baby born the same year as you (meaning Year of the Tiger not the actual year of course:)). That is what the lady in Hong Kong told me when I got my fortune told. She also told me I would have a baby last April, so I am not sure how legit she was:), but it was fun. Let's hope the year of the Tiger is ours!

A little tiger cub would be perfect!

Sending positive thoughts your way!

I heard that the tiger's mouth this year is very wide open which means it is an aggressive tiger... interpreted this means that you should go after the things you want and they'll happen this year. Here's hoping for your baby tiger!
