2ww- the worst! *****UPDATED*****

MAYBE TMI... CAUTION... Today is 9dp3dt!

So, Saturday early evening I went to the restroom and had some goo- a yellowish brown spot, kinda thick like CM. But, only that one time. Made me sooo nervous.

Yesterday, about 4 o'clock- I went to the restroom and had a pinkish red smear! I was convinced AF was making her appearance. But I've had nothing since. NOTHING! I've been to the restroom like 5 times today to check. TORTURE!

I'm not a spotter typically. This is killin me. I either want her to show her ugly face and let me know this is over- or quit playin games with me!!!

Beta Friday! This is gonna be a very.long.week.  

(thanks for allowing me to vent) 

UPDATE: I just went to the restroom and had brown back again. I called my nurse they moved my beta to Wednesday, which will be 11dp3dt. She said if my # comes back low they'll make me do a repeat beta Friday. But they didn't wanna chance missing a chemical like the feel they did last time when I started bleeding before my beta.

I'm a nervous wreck!!!!!!!!!!

    Agreed girl!!! I'm sorry you had a break down- it's just not fair is it? ((hugs))

    Yesterday I came out of the restroom, looked at my hubs, and said... I had another spot... I'm so sorry babe. He told me to stop apologizing for something I couldn't control. He said it wasn't my fault- but I let him know that I feel like it is. I mean I'm the one "broken". He has a great attitude and is still holding out hope. So I am trying to feed off of his strength. 

    Ugh-  IF sux. I just wanna know. I mean this beta defines the rest of my life. This.is.it. The pressure is almost unbearable.

    Thanks girlie. They said to POAS before day 11 wouldn't guarantee accuracy. So according to them too early... I don't wanna chance stark white. I'm happy with moving it up 2 days early. Just gonna wait it out. But these wicked cramps are telling me my hopes and dreams are about to be crushed.

    When DH came home, and I had to tell him I had spotted again, I had a big meltdown. But, as usual, he picked me up and wiped the tears. He reminded me that we have to have faith until the very end. So thankful for such a strong encouraging hubby. And so thankful to have all my girls here to cheer me on and have hope when I can't find any.

    I really appreciate you more than I can express! xoxo
