Just a vent...

in Trying to Get Pregnant

So, I don't post often b/c I have weird hours at work, but I lurk as much as time allows.  If there's anywhere I can go to write this, I know it's here.

I don't temp, but I am usually quite regular (28-30 day cycles).  No great symptoms this month, but I was 5 days late.  I couldn't help myself...I really had hope that this was my month.

AF burst my bubble today.  Really weird, AF just showed up with no symptoms.  The really sucky thing is that I was starting to believe this was it for me.  I know I should have POAS, but Iwas holding out since the last few months have been BFNs.

We haven't been trying long, but I really got my hopes up.  I know so many of you have been through this...and I honestly don't know how you keep your spirits up when instead of a BFP you keep getting AF instead.  What's worse is that I feel awful for taking my husband along on my emotional roller coaster with me.  I think, in the future, I will keep my big fat mouth shut.

So, that's it.  I will feel better tomorrow.  For tonight, I'm going to have a drink and retire early.  Thanks for the vent.

    ::sigh:: i agree.  it's very hard for me.  and it's not just bfn's that get me down.. but there's a hoard of other things in life that remind you of you're new venture and how you feel as if you've lost your road map.

    So sorry to hear about AF, TTC brings on a whole new hatred for AF.

    You have a lot of will power to not POAS as soon as AF was late.

    Best of luck to you next cycle!

    It's been a rough year financially like most of the rest of the world...and honestly, I didn't want to waste the money.  So, I am feeling somewhat renewed and am saving my tests for the New Year!

    Good luck to you too!

    For me, it's the repeated up and downs that are killing me.  i get my hopes up and then I get deflated.  So the next month, I try not to get overly-excited, but then AF messes with my mind and it's driving me nuts!

    I think the emotional coaster just makes other disappointments that much worse b/c you're already running on reserves at times dealing with the madness that comes with TTC.

    I just never anticipated the difficulties that come with this process.

    Anyway, good luck to you in the new year!

    It's hard not to throw a pity party; you will get your BFP!  GOOD LUCK!!!
