Angry and upset.

Paige • 27| Married 3 years| Expecting Baby #1 Oct. 2019

so I was actually feeling pretty confident this cycle. It was our anniversary month so a lot more loving than usual. I also had the easiest tww EVER (virtually forgot until a few days ago when symptoms started). This cycle we pulled out OPKs and Preseed, and I've had a few WEIRD symptoms the past few days. My period isn't supposed to start for another few days, but this morning I feel like it's coming. My mom told me that could be a sign...but here's where my anger and upset stem from.

It seems that EVERYONE around me is getting pregnant while single, or not in a responsible situation. Two girls at work got pregnant "on accident" one basically homeless and has no car, and the other is doing well but she's single. And today another co-worker confided in me that she's pregnant "accidentally" and will be having a chemical abortion (her second in a year).

I haven't been trying as long as some, and I HATE this feeling that I can't be excited for people.

However, I've been with my husband 7 years, married for two. We own a house, both have newer cars, both have decent jobs. We are going out of our way to try and expand our family, and it's not happening as quick as I expected (we are young, healthy, and I have a pretty good grasp on my cycle).

I'm usually so spiritual and up eat and know that everything happens exactly the way it should, but I just can't shake the anger and upset.

Sorry. I needed to get that off of my chest.
