Does anyone feel out before the 2WW even starts?
DH and I have been TTC for a few months now (not forever, but it feels that way). Over the past few months I feel like we've been doing everything right (timing wise) and still BFN month after month. Now, I'm in my 2WW and already think I'm out AGAIN and not for any particular reason. I'm already looking ahead at my next cycle and estimating when my fertile window will be, etc. I'm afraid I'll always doubt myself and think I'm out every cycle. How do I shake the negativity? Am I the only Debbie Downer?!

Re: Does anyone feel out before the 2WW even starts?
i feel that way too but it comes with the territory when you are trying for years
just go back and re read what you wrote..thinking your out for no reason
shake the negativity by reading stories of bfp's and how they were sure they were out
enjoy things in the 2ww that u limit while pregnant..so get drunk and say better do it now bc in 2 weeks i cannot
and if u need a real picker upper i will tell u my ttc over 2 years
good luck! i wont say keep ur head up bc i hate when people say it to me but i will say best of luck i hope u get ur bfp

Haha I think i'm out too! And for no particular reason. I am TRYING to hope but I don't want to get my hopes up to be let down if that makes any sense!
Anyway

Since we started TTC I have felt different during every 2WW...most likely overanalyzing everything! This 2WW I feel totally normal so I'm either out, or this is the month...fingers crossed for everyone!

I keep saying I'm out and I actually came to terms with ending our ttc journey for now and waiting for a better time. Now I'm getting all these "symptoms" I swear! Someone is messing with my head!

I think it's a defense mechanism. It's easier to tell yourself your out than to feel crushed if you psych yourself up. Good luck.

Re: Does anyone feel out before the 2WW even starts?
Haha my first IUI will be in March so basically I am doubting out "ttc" ability for the next two months. I agree, negativity sometimes comes with the territory. What has really helped me through is trying something a little different every month. It gives me a game plan and something to look forward to. Of course we will try over the next two months but my disappointment have been eased a little knowing that help isn't too far behind.

i had to pick a gift there up the other day. I was so angry to be there and watch all the moms and their little ones. I definitely gave evil eye out
I too, have been timing everything perfectlu the last 4 months since my miscarriage. I use the cbefm AND digital opks and have perfectly accordingly and come up with nothing. Im definitely a debbie downer about it all and look at the scheduling for the following cycle b4 the current one is up.

Re: Does anyone feel out before the 2WW even starts?
this cycle is so weird for me, I definitely felt like I was out during the 2ww and was already telling DH to ice his balls down for Martin Luther King weekend since I should be o'ing by then, but then once I hit 14dpo a few days ago and no AF I got hopeful I don't know what's worse knowing you're out or having hope....especially since I don't really have any reason to be hopeful yet other than just WANTING A BFP SO F'ING BADLY I'D SELL DH'S TESTICLES ON THE BLACK MARKET FOR ONE oh wait a sec....I need those for future use, nevermind! I am f'ing losing it this month!

Re: Does anyone feel out before the 2WW even starts?
I always feel out a few days before AF. I just "know" it's coming. It's funny, I just moved back to my old NYC neighborhood and I keep thinking that I never noticed so many kids here before. All I see are baby strollers and moms. Has the population increased in the past 2 years? prob not. It's all psychological.

Same here..usually by 7 or 8DPO I know if I'm getting AF.
