I apologize ahead if time for my whining.
I tell myself I won't be this way, but every time I start a new cycle I get so angry! I'm just mad. Like throwingsomethingagainstthewallwouldfeelsogood mad! And FYI cramps, I take it personally when you hurt this bad. Like I need you to remind me I'm not pregnant?! I know I'm throwing a tantrum. Yoga, cookies, and wine do help a little, but if anyone has any other ideas I'm listening!
Rant over.

Re: Negative nelly
I get the same way. I vacillate between uncontrollable sobbing and just being plain pissed off.
I say, find some things you can't do while pregnant. Drink, get a tan, hang out in a bar, whatever. I try to find some silver lining somewhere. Even though it barely scratches the surface.
Sorry about CD1. I'm sure I'll be joining you there next week.

I'm sorry! I know exactly how you feel though. I get horrible migraines with AF and they just p!ss me off anymore. I really don't need the extremely painful reminder that once again I am not pregnant! I usually try to soothe myself with baked goods. Probably not the best solution.
I hope the cramps go away and you feel better soon!
