Tough month

ThursdayMorning · October 2015

Woke up feeling especially sad and emotional today. It's been such a roller coaster of a month and TTC has made it even more emotional.

I'm now 15DPO and still no sign of AF. BFN as well. (Is this ever going to happen?!) The waiting is so difficult and I feel like I'm much more emotional than normal. Facebook is a minefield of baby pics from friends and for some reason it really got to me this morning. Tears all around. Doesn't help that DH is traveling all week so it's just the dog and me. (Poor dog. He cuddles when he sees me sad. He is so confused.)

Sorry for the bummer post. This is tough.

Hugs to you! I'm in the 2ww about 9dpo and can relate. I'm just trying to stay busy and not think too much about it but it's very difficult.

I want to start off with saying that Facebook announcements are the worst! Especially when they're exceptionally adorable, the jealousy makes me feel small.

You're not alone! This month has been super hard for me too. It's been helping a lot to allow myself a few minutes to be sad, just long enough to acknowledge/validate my pain and loss. But not too long. We have to keep pushing to get to the happy ending; however the path to that ending may be. Hugs! You will get through this.

Waiting is the hardest part. And I agree with rachajoy09 you are not alone. This has been a tough month for me also. I am actually thinking of staying off of Facebook for a while as it seems to be a bit of a trigger for me. Sorry your hubby is away when you are feeling so down, but glad your dog is stepping up to give you extra cuddles!

I'm with you. My best friend who was pregnant a month after me (I had a mc in September) announced it on fb last night and it hurt so bad. I'm trying to be happy for her but it's tough for sure. Her updates remind me of where I would have been.

@tennisbabymama That is what I find exceptionally hard....this isn't where I should be. By this time I would be overjoyed with the anatomy scan and learning if our baby was a boy or girl.

I'm sorry you're having a difficult time! You are definitely not alone. Being in limbo is the worst part of this whole stupid cycle experience. I have some serious downs sometimes. One time I went to the grocery store and saw the cutest toddler laughing with her mom, I could tell they were such a happy family. As soon as I got into my car, I broke down and cried for a while. Life isn't fair and I'll never understand it.

This is hard. We are here for you. I hope you feel better and take care of yourself. I'm glad your dog is there for you, my dogs have saved me many times.

I'm so sorry @ThursdayMorning. I feel your pain. I realized today that tomorrow I would have been 18 weeks and I'd be finding out the sex of our baby. Add to that, my SIL (who I love dearly and has had her own losses and has been so supportive) told me she's expecting twins. I'm a hot mess right now. Currently sitting in the dark in my living room bc I don't want DH to see how upset I am.
