Rollercoaster of Emotions

I am sure most of you ladies experience something similar. Every month I start off positive, with renewed spirit. Then when I O, I always thinkOK we did it!Chat Icon
Then I start worrying the closer I get to AF's expected due date that I am not having anything but AF symptoms and we didn't do it this month. Driving myself NUTS over here.
I am not having any fun playing this game of waiting

Sorry, just feel like I am on a friggin see-saw

Re: Rollercoaster of Emotions

You've described it perfectly- it IS a roller coaster. Just seeing a +OPK is enough to make me manic. It's awful when you think you've timed everything perfectly only to get disappointed. At least you know you're not alone in feeling that way.....

I'm right there with ya!!! It's terrible!! Last month, I 'd put my hand on a bible and say I was preggers. But, yet again, AF reared her head!!! I tired not to let it get down, but then we had some friends and family announced their pregnancies this month and it was hard to hear. Although I'm SO happy for them, I am getting anxious playing this game.

I always said that I just wanted it to "happen" but at this rate, I'm turning into a psycho!!! So, for this month I am gonna try not to drive myself insane and just take it day by day.

Re: Rollercoaster of Emotions

You just said it perfectly. This morning when I got my peak I almost cried in the bathroom, the same with last month on regular OPK's and I was certain we did everything perfectly last month!!! It's up and down for me. I'm also a really emotional person by nature, so this entire TTC is driving me nuts, and then when I start to stress about it all I stress because I'm stressing and I shouldn't be stressing because that could affect everything as well!!!!

Oh it's DEFINITELY a rollercoaster of emotions! I couldn't agree more.

I feel like I complete this annoying cycle where I go from...
happy/excited at O time
to worried that I'm not feeling any symptoms OR overanalyzing every single thing my body does
to stressing right before AF is due
to completely heartbroken whe AF shows.

I go through the same emotional rollercoaster too. I can't help but wonder though if all the stress is bad for ttc too. I wish I could just take it easy and stop worrying/timing everything/peeing on sticks etc!

Re: Rollercoaster of Emotions

Yes I completely understand where you are coming from. Its like the day AF comes I am BEYOND miserable waiting for it to be over so we can start all over again.

That's what sometimes I stay away from here....I guess I get upset easily.
