What is the main reason you think you're crazy during TTC?

NsMommy · #1 April 14th, 2011, 07:31 AM

After this recent negative test, I'm beginning to doubt my own beliefs over the last week and I'm pretty sure I'm nutso because of this

.

My reason: I WAY over-analyze my symptoms (thanks to Tanya in PL for putting this suggestion into my head). I think I know my body a lot better than I do.

I *used* to analyze every symptom but honestly I think because I want to be pregnant so bad my body has pregnancy symptoms because of it. So now I'm sort of at peace with it if that makes sense.

It does, and I think I'll have to come to peace with it myself, too!

I would be seriously psycho right now if I wouldn't have come to peace with things.

I don't think I am crazy, but I am not an excitable person, so I don't get mania swings on just about everything. I am the exception and not the rule in here.

Before I came to TTCAL, I had posted maybe 100 times. Now, I am at 1500 and it's mostly in here. That's a little crazy.

I also think a lot of it is that we're actually paying attention. Before TTC, I never noticed anything my body did at any time of the month (except AF of course) but now I am paying attention so I notice things more if that makes sense.

NsMommy · #8 April 14th, 2011, 08:28 AM

Yes, it makes sense, pepper.

Shortcake, I feel kind of immature in my TTC journey now

. Hehe. Like, you've all grown up and learned lessons and I'm still learning

Shadeauxe, I am definitely in the mania swings category. LOL

. But nice increase in posts! I think I'll be there soon too with all of this optimism/pessimism, crazy reading of signs, lol

I am a crazy nut when it comes to eveything TTC just makes me even worse.

Right now I am freaking out over my OPK's.... Next week it will be is that a line or not?

I have tended to make my symptoms appear by thinking about them, then got disappointed by the end result. I try not to set myself up for disappointment anymore. After 3 years of trying, I learned to not think about it so much. I have gotten better though.

We just all wanna be PG so badly! We work ourselves up over it! I don't know about you guys but it's really one of the main things I think about constantly... Baby baby baby! And I think we are worse in TTCAL cause of our losses

But I will agree, it makes you really want to pay attention to your body and learn more.

I cannot believe that I'm making up these symptoms but the mind is VERY powerful, I guess

That is a statement I can agree with.

I was super sick with DD, so anytime I feel nauseous during the tww I simultaneously get super excited that I might be pg and terrified that I'm going to have to go through being sick again. I'm confident that God has another child for us, so I'm at peace with whenever and however that happens, but I get crazy about the HG. Not sure if anyone can relate to my particular brand of crazy.
