Does anyone else find that in the last week of your 2 WW it seems as though the PMS is much worse on the mental front? I feel like I may lose my job... I am getting so snippy and frustrated that the customers I am talking to on the phone are pretty much pointing it out to me. I've always been so good at my job, even though I hate and despise it more than anything ever in my life. I have a strong work ethic and I will do the job that you are paying me for as best I can. But it is such a struggle lately....
I walked out of Walmart this weekend and there was a family that was ringing the Salvation Army bell and they had instruments with them, a french horn, trombone, and trumpet and they were playing Christmas carols and I got teary eyed walking to my car and was totally embarrased. Tonight just walking out to my car I wanted to cry. WHY? I don't really know... I think it's just such a weight to carry when having to worry about am I pregnant or not? Is this the month? Am I going to like this new Dr. and clinic? Why am I stuck at a job that makes me so miserable and why don't any of my applications get responses? I have never felt so rejected as a whole.
Add onto that I am the financial person of the household... and there is no set budget so OY! That's always fun... husbands truck suddenly needed new rotors and brake pads. Nice extra $365 to spend around Christmas when this weekend we'll be driving to MN which is over 500 miles one way gas isn't cheap!
I guess that's my vent for the day.... BTW I am so loving the Christmas cards and letters from my DS sisters!

I just think the pressures of life can just get to us sometimes. Infertility can be so tough to deal with. Then add financial pressures to it!!!!!I can relate I am also the financial one in my household. This week we needed major car repairs too. Then we will be driving 14 hours to go home for Christmas. To deal with this I'm just going with the flow because I can't do anything to change my situation right now. Hang in there.

I too felt that I just had a bfn from a fet and I am a high school teacher and felt that I really had to watch myself that I didn't snap at my students and over react to things...I was really swept too, crying to songs on the radio...cried on the way to by beta test etc..you are not alone in your feelings!

Yes I cry so easily during my 2ww. And I get so snappy towards co-workers and my DH. I always have so much kissing up to do afterwards. It has to be the stress and the hormones. My AF is due friday. :( So not looking forward to having that at my BIL's house for the weekend. Not to mention all the questioning glances. Plus it wil be first time meeting my new niece. Arrghh. I want to meet her I really do, but not with everyone around and the questioning eyes while dealing with AF. The only thing that would make it bearible would be a BFP, but I have a feeling it's not the case. I'll test on friday if no AF. Thinking of all my DS sisters during this holiday weekend. Wishing we all get our happy bfp soon.

You're not alone, I think the 2ww is worse than the aftershock of AF visiting. When AF comes I actually feel relief that she is here and the wait is over. Hope it gets better:)
