Seriously....? ***EDITED***
SO I've been an emotional wreck these past few days for no absolute reason....So much so the point that I was up until 2am crying about things that are completely out of my control. I usually get a little emotional before I get AF (which isn't due until next Friday) but this is insane~ I did do a PG test (8DPO) this morning but it came up a BFN as expected. I used the dollar tree test so I don't think they're all that sensitive. If I'm not pg this time around I'm going to be shocked! Between being totally exhausted every afternoon, the emotional rollercoaster, really tender breasts this is insane~
THanks for letting me vent! Is anyone else going through this?
ETA: I should have been more specific when I wrote this. The "cryfest of 2010" as DH is now calling it (lol) was over non TTC related issues. We're in the process of finishing building a new home, moving, and dealing with a few unexpected losses in our lives so I think it was a compilation of things. I just am not an overly emotional person so I am hoping that this "cryfest" is related to pregnancy and not mental instability! lol But thank you for the support!! I really appreciate it!

Re: Seriously....?
Sorry to hear you are so stressed out over this. How long have you been TTC? Please don't take this the wrong way but my suggestion would be to try to not test so early. The odd's of an HPT being accurate are rather small. Yes, it does happen for some girls, but more likely than not, you would be getting false negatives if in fact you are PG.
In the beginning when I started TTC I started testing at 9/10dpo. I drove myself CRAZY and it really just added to the stress. More recently, I've been just waiting it out to see if AF shows. It's definitely hard, especially when you are convincing yourself that you have all of these PG symptoms (trust me, I've been there MANY times), but IMO, it's not worth torturing yourself with test after test.
Stay strong this cycle and see what happens and if not, think positive for the next cycle.

I appreciate your feedback! I just edited my post because I realized that I was not specific enough in regard to what I was upset over. I couldn't agree with you more over the early testing and actually take the tests expecting to get a negative because they're early. DH and I just have fun watching them! lol Again, thank you for your support. It's so nice to have such amazing women on this board!
