AW: The Month From Hell...A GIF Story

CreechMommy

Ok here we go: my first GIF story...

So I started out the first of September with a visit from AF.  With all my ragey hormones I felt all...

And a little bit of 

But then my hormones evened out and I went into this month feeling all, "THIS is gonna be my month!!"

So I got prepared.  Ordered OPKs, set an alarm to go off every morning at the same time so I could temp and told my DH my plan. 

So then we were all..

So we had several weeks of..

Then we went to the Dr. and learned I might have endometriosis.  Which made me feel...

But my sweet DH tried to keep us encouraged.  

So we soldiered on through the TWW

And we waited...

Until finally, I tested...

And get a BFN

Then I start feeling all ragey from hormones again

And then AF decides to show her face and close out the month with her horribleness

So now we journey on into the next month and I feel...

But there's nothing to do, but keep trying.  We both want this so bad, so we keep putting ourselves through it hoping one day things will change. 

Thanks for reading my GIF story...

Here's some cake

Sorry about the BFN, Creech. I think your GIF story summed up how a lot of us feel, swinging from hope to despair in two week increments.

Yep, I do this every freaking month!

I'm sorry for the BFN. Your GIF made me smile and nod a lot though and I'm glad you can maintain your sense of humor through the ups and down emotions of TTC!

Althought I love a good gif story, the title seems a little dramatic based on the content.

@CallaLily30 Oops didn't mean to be dramatic.  Guess I couldn't find a GIF to capture the emotional distress of finding out I have something wrong with my ovaries, getting a big ER bill from the visit where we were told our baby was dead (that we can't pay), and having everyone around me pop up pregnant.  

Thought it was better to keep the GIFs funny and light hearted so I wouldn't bum everyone out.  Maybe I should title it "Happy Rainbows"

The cake is my favorite. Where do I find a bad ass candle like that?

SunshineShades

I'm sorry @CreechMommy! What a crappy month
I tested today too (cycle buddies!) and BFN. I'm hoping maybe I just O'd late since AF isn't due til Thursday anyhow, but I don't think that's really the case. Here's to next month right?

CreechMommy

@SunshineShades Sorry about the BFN It sucks majorly.  FX for next cycle!!

scrang74

Love the gif story...a little humor gets me through bad days like this one. Sorry your cycle didn't work out this month, hugs!
I'm with you and @SunshineShades‌, took a test this morning and BFN, due on Thursday with AF and started spotting and cramps today. I really thought this was the month with our good timing and focus. It sucks so much, I just want to scream, cry, punch a hole in the nearest wall!!!! Onwards and upwards I guess

Including everything else, it sounds like you've had a rough month. Your gif story, though, was about getting your period, charting, and getting your period again (something we've all been through repeatedly, some of us for years on end), so I think that's why @Callalily30 commented that the title was a bit dramatic based on the content.
