TTC After a Loss

Feeling super emotional... waaaahhh

Sorry, this is a super whiny AW post but I just need to vent.

DH is headed out of town for a week, starting tonight. We barely even said goodbye this morning since his flight wasn't leaving until 9 p.m. tonight and I was sure I'd get to spend some time with him after work before he had to go to the airport.

Well, he just texted me and told me the group he is going with wants to leave at 5, which means I won't be able to get home in time to see him off.

I'm already super emotional (stupid progesterone supplements), and now I'm sitting at work on the verge of tears because not only did I not get to really say goodbye, but I'll know in the next few days whether this cycle worked or was a bust, and he won't be here. I even tested this morning at 8dpo just in case I had a miracle early BFP so I could let him know in person before he leaves. Obviously BFN. That alone doesn't bother me since I knew it was 99% most likely too early. But I'm just sad that no matter which way this turns out in the next few days, I won't have him there to either celebrate or commiserate with me. I'm still not sure what I'll do if I do get a BFP - call him right away or wait until he gets home so I can tell him in person. I haven't told him when I'll be testing, but he could obviously do the math if he wanted to and figure it out.

Pity party for one? I miss him already.

  • Naners,I'm so sorry :-(  I feel for you -- I do.  My husband's schedule and mine often times conflict so even though he's not OOT exactly, we're often not able to connect.... and it makes my heart ache miserably.  I empathize with you and I'm so sorry.... I wish I could give you real life *squishy hugs*

    This!

    I hate it when dh goes away too, and is not there for support.  When he is gone I break out the really girly movies that he will not watch with me.

    Yep, me too! I'm sorry you're feeling so emotional ... And I am REALLY sorry you didn't get to tell him goodbye. But he'll be back, and you just enjoy your time to yourself until he is!

    We lost our first (EDD 07/23/12) after finding out at 12 weeks there was no longer a heartbeat. Our rainbow was born 05/22/13 and was worth all we went through.

    “So can you understand? Why I want a daughter while I’m still young? I wanna hold her hand and show her some beauty before all this damage is done. But if it’s too much to ask, it’s too much to ask … Then send me a son.” – Arcade Fire
  • That sucks bananers :(  (((HUGS)))  I wish you were able to say a better goodbye to him.  Maybe you could send him a sexy goodbye picture so that he knows he's missed ;)  

    We are here for you for when you test and get the news.  I will celebrate with you by having a shot or drowning out the BFN with a shot since I'm totally out this cycle.  Maybe you could hold off on testing until he gets back.  I'd delete that since I know that's a crazy idea, but I'll leave it there as an idea ;)

  • Not having a proper goodbye is the worst.  That would upset me too!  But, he'll be back soon, and you can enjoy your me-time in the interim.  As PP said, when you do test, we're here!

  • Well, that sucks bananas, bananers...did that even get a hint of a smile?! Seriously though, I know it's hard when I don't get to say goodbye to DH in person whenever he or I go OOT.  I'm sorry that your DH travel buddies, couldn't wait til later to leave for the airport.  FX that when you test on the weekend you get a BFP and you can spend some time deciding how to tell your DH the good news.  In the meantime, we are here for you to talk to and vent to while DH is away.  ((HUGS)).

  • I'm sorry you're having a sucky day. I'm sending you good vibes for a BFP that'll make it all better. And I think if it were me I'd TRY to hold out to tell him about a BFP in person. But in reality I'd never make it.  The Golden Girls always makes me feel better.  :).  ((hugs))
