**WARNING: I am about to curse...like, a lot. Also, children and BFP's mentioned that are obviously not effing mine.***
Big fat fucking goddamn shitting son of a bitching negative. I just HAD to test a day early (yesterday) and I got the BFN. And even though I somehow knew it wasn't a false one, I still had the tiniest inkling of hope. Today AF started and I tried to convince myself it was just implantation spotting because it wasn't that heavy. But my breasts aren't sore anymore and it wasn't the pink or brown described in all the internet articles I have read about the subject. So I called my RE's office and let them know I started and then went to the gym to burn off some of my anger about the unfairness of it all. And I was okay. But then I come back from the gym to a fire drill at work...so now we are locked out of the office and I am in my gym clothes all sweaty and gross and hungry. Did not improve my mood...but I was still okay. Then the RE called back to schedule my mid-cycle u/s. And when I told the nurse I started today she said "I'm sorry about that". And THAT is when I started losing it. Somehow the sympathy made it officially real. I appreciated her sympathy, but it immediately set a lump in my throat that will not go away.
So today I am pissed. I am pissed that AF had to come today. I am pissed about the goddamn fire drill. I am pissed that I have already secretly cried in the ladies room three times in the last week about my fucking infertility and that my face is trying to start its shit again. I am pissed about all the shit-heads in the world who got pregnant on accident when there are perfectly good people all over the world who want kids and can't have them. I am pissed that none of you are pregnant. I am pissed that my super annoying co-worker just got pregnant and everyone is fawning ALL over her. I am pissed that my company changed their insurance coverage for fertility treatment in January with no notice because we knew we needed to see an RE since September but put it off for convenience and now I have to pay for all this shit out of pocket. I am pissed that I couldn't wait two more days to test because I wasted a pregnancy test.
OMG...it felt so much better to write all of that out. The lump is gone, my eyes have stopped stinging. Let's see if I can make it through the rest of this day without completely losing it.
