I'm sure many of you have at some point or other felt this way.
Today is turning out to be a desparate day for me. I get in these moods where I want to have a baby so bad it almost hurts. A few things set it off, my mom told me she had a dream I had twins last night (I bugged her to tell me the dream she didn't just spit it out), my mom has also offered to pay for my next months supply of meds, but she's so positive that it'll happen soon for me. I hate that IF is hurting her too
.
Also, I have to stop creeping baby things
. Maybe it's time for me to get crafting for Christmas and stop thinking about things. I mean I'm not even in my 2WW and I'm already feeling this way... oy!
Thanks for listening ladies, nobody else gets it. And I feel bad dumping it on my DH as soon as he gets home, or crying on the phone while he's at work. You ladies keep me sane!
Re: Feeling overwhelmed.
Oh hon, I'm so sorry. I was feeling that way yesterday. I hate to say it, but yes, desperate is the right word. I never understood how badly emotional pain could physically hurt, but it does. Right in the middle of my chest. I think you do need to quit creeping the baby things, that has got to make it worse. I'm the complete opposite, I act as if baby things don't even exist. I refuse to make eye contact with babies in the hallway (I work at a hospital.) And yet, bellies - I ogle them like crazy. Weird.
I hope you start feeling better soon. GL on your next cycle. I'm rooting for you!

I get it! I have a great fix because I get to cuddle with babies at work.
This 2ww is going to be a real test for us, I am terrified because i think we may have a shot this month; DH's # was good, I had 3 monster follies, we are using different meds!
I think your right time to get crafting!

I've definitely been there many times. Know that you aren't alone, and even though your mom may be hurting for you, since she is someone you confide in,she would probably rather go through it with you than not be able to help you in any way.
Now, go get crafting and stop looking at all the adorable baby clothes and bedding!

Sorry you feel this way hun!! I actually feel this way today too. The last week of the 2ww always makes me feel depressed/anxious/negative. I cant help it. I even wake up in middle of night & TTC is all I think about and cant go back to sleep.
I started my Christmas shopping to keep my mind busy. I also discovered foodgawker.com which is amazing! I hope you feel better!
You ladies are the best, thank you so much.

I had the same sort of day today. I found myself watching A Baby Story and crying. Then to make matters worse, my Grandmother opened her mouth and told my Dad all about our issues TTC, so he called out on that. I ended up a total mess again. Sometimes I just feel so desperate for a baby too and I could sit here all day and look up baby gear and obsess, which I hate to admit I did yesterday.
I'm sorry you're having such a crummy day. Feel free to join me in a pity party complete with an icecream sundae.
