Today I had awful cramps in my lower back. It almost took the wind out of me! I'm trying really hard not to get my hopes up. I don't want to deal with being hopeful and another heartache. DH is getting hopeful too. I haven't said anything to him, but the other day he said that he has a big feeling that we were going to have a baby soon. Im hoping that his feeling is right. But what if they aren't? The more hopeful I get, the more symptoms I "find" and interpret as possible pregnancy symptoms. I guess I will have my answer in a week or so. I need to wait it out and relax, stop interpreting every little twinge and a good sign.
Do you let yourself get hopeful in the 2ww or do you try to stay neutral to avoid heartache?
I am at the end of my tww, I was hopeful and reading into every sign and symptom I tested too early several times and now i am thinking af might even come early just to mock me in a way, and I have had two friends post pg announcements on fb, it has been a rough tww and while it is hard to be deflated in a way at the end, that beginning week of hope and elation that this might be the time, is just enough to make me pick myself up put my big girl panties on and say I can do this again! despite the emotions that go through me when af inevitably shows.
ReplyDeleteI hate when af shows early. It's almost worse than it showing up on time. I hope you get your bfp soon!
DeleteI do it everytime during my TWW, even though I promise myself not to get too hopeful. Hope your DHs intuition is correct.
ReplyDeleteUsually because of dh's job we don't get together like we should when I do ovulate. This time is different and I think that's why I'm getting my hope up.
DeleteI project a neutral feeling to DH and family but on the inside I am as hopeful as can be. I POAS more than I should and I am crushed when AF comes. However, I just keep swimming :-) and I hope DH's little men do too. Lol.
ReplyDeleteI hope this is your time. I will be hopeful for you and send prayers your way
I haven't really said anything to DH this time. He might know now because of this post! That way I don't get his hopes up and had to deal with disappointing him and deal with my own issues again. Thank you for your prayers! I'll be keeping you in mine also!
DeleteI always get really excited when I think I may have ovulated and that this time could be it, then I get let down and its tought to deal with. I try not to get that way but its hard. I have full faith and confidience in God and believe he can and will let this happen though. So thats why I am always hopeful. I have faith that He will let it happen for you as well. I hope and pray these signs, and hubbys intuiton is right. Good luck!!
ReplyDeleteDH said that he just had this calm feeling and that someone was telling him that we were going to have a baby soon. I thought it was called mother intuition! Ha ha. I hope that he is right!
DeleteThat is awesome! I hope he is right as well! =D
