Emotions and TTC
Why did I think this was going to be so easy? Because I already have one child? Because everyone has been assuring me that 36 isn't "too old"? I was so geared up the first month TTC. My husband is 6yrs younger than me so of course I assumed it would just "happen". After a month of doing the deed every other day of my supposed fertile window I just KNEW I was pregnant. My boobs hurt. I was nauseous. I was tired. I was bloated. I googled every single thing I felt and every single thing pointed to pregnant. Started testing WAY too soon. All those BFNs were wrong. I knew my body. I could've sworn I saw a vvvvvfl. I googled pics of every pregnancy test that was positive early. Compared mine. Installed the app that does the contrast. I was sure.
Then AF showed up. Something must be wrong with me. This can't be right. It has to be implantation bleeding. My cycle must be off. I went through every possibility. Went to the dr. Confirmed negative. WHY. What did I do wrong?
Nothing. It could be anything. It just wasn't my time. Stop obsessing over symptoms, googling pics of CM and brands of early pregnancy tests. Just breathe, and start a new month. It'll be ok. There are so many other women feeling the same way. Including me. ❤️
