Thought I was KU

Okay, so I am one of those women whose periods have ALWAYS been 28-30 days apart.  No exceptions, except my pregnancies.

Well, this month my period decided to be almost 10 days late (I am well aware that this could be an early miscarriage, but I am telling myself it was just a wonky period).   I kept taking pregnancy tests and they were negative.

My reaction to the whole thing was feeling tense/anxious.  I didn't feel anything good at all about the potential of being pregnant.  I started worrying about not being on progesterone to help me keep the pregnancy, having a newborn with a toddler, being pregnant again, finances etc. The best I could muster is, "We will figure it out if I am".

Before this, I was leaning more to being on the fence.  I focused on the positives, but once this happened, I focused on the negatives.  I can see that I am DEFINITELY no where near being prepared, ready, or wanting another baby in the near future.  

I just don't think my mind could take it.

I don't know if this has a point, but just wanted to get it off of my chest.

^ when in the heck did you change your name and where on earth have I been?

Hugs @hopefulmom81 - I was there years ago.  My periods are always extremely regular, too, and I was 7 days late once.  I really do believe that just happens every so often, even if we're like clockwork for 78 years. It just happens.  I don't believe I was pregnant. I just believe I had an off cycle.  I had the same feelings. I flipped out!  My H called for the vasectomy consult the next week.  It's a scary thing when you don't feel you want it.

I'm sorry you were stressing!

I'm kinda in the same boat since my period is a couple days late. I'm to in denial to test because I'm just saying my cycle is off this month.

WOW!

Glad you aren't and that maybe it helped sort things out for you a bit.  Whew!

It would be nerve wrecking for me as well.

 

Hugs to you.

Many hugs! That would stress me out too.
