so ... I really need to POAS. But I'm scared (and superstitious)

in Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

My period was due on Monday. ?Still no period. ?But I haven't POAS.

I don't know why I'm scared - we've been TTC for 5 months, so I should be used to the idea by now. ?But I guess I'm still afraid of the idea of parenting 2 children and balancing everything else (work, marriage, housework, friendships). ?And will I have enough love to go around?

And the superstitious part: before we had DS, I miscarried a baby at 8 weeks. ?It was more than 3 years ago, but I still remember that I tested on a Saturday morning with that first pregnancy. ?So I don't want to test tomorrow, because it's Saturday and I'm afraid that means I would lose this baby (that I don't even know for sure I'm pregnant with yet). ?

Can you say Crazy-Cakes? ?

    I don't think you're crazy.  It really makes total sense to me, unless we're both crazy!  but...since you're superstitious, POAS tonight!!! GL!

    Just think how scared it was with #1...you didn't know what you were in for and now you've got it down.  #2 will be the same, an adjustment, but you do it and you love them just as much as the first.

    Not crazy. If it's going to cause you anxiety, POAS tonight or wait until Sunday.

    I definitely don't think you're crazy.  I had a m/c before DS and the same type of thoughts crossed my mind as well.  I'm due the same month as I was with my m/c (about a week's difference) and it's definitely causing a lot of anxiety.

    This.  I don't think you're crazy. I m/c'd at 9wks & the next pregnancy I was comparing EVERYTHING to that m/c pg.  GL...hope all works out for you!!

    Not crazy at all.  I had a m/c this spring and I'm slightly terrified of getting KU again, even though we're TTC.  AF is due for me today, I've been testing like a fool, and all I've gotten are BFNs. 

    I'd run out, buy a test, and POAS tonight!
