So... today marks the beginning of 8 months of us trying very hard to do what so many people do by accident. Sigh.

I'm crampy. I'm frustrated. I'm sad. I'm aggravated. I'm disappointed.

I cried a little this morning, but I'm even starting to feel as if I've run out of tears. How freakin' sad is that?

Anyway... I know lots of you will suggest going to the doctor and all that... and I will. But right now I need to just not think about any of this. I need to not hear about BFPs and have to feign happiness. I need to step back and just give myself some time to decompress.

I'm sure I'll bounce back in a few days. No one need worry about me... I just need some space. So while I love you all and truly hope your cycles turn out better than mine, please forgive me for not being the best cheerleader right now.

I've just made a huge pot of my own Holiday Blend coffee (since I don't have to care about what I put in my body right now).

So I'm going to curl up on the sofa, turn on the 360 and watch some of the scary movies I put in my Netflix streaming queue.

I'm so sorry, Nikki. Your plan sounds like a good one. Add a nice cup of tea.

We will be here when you need to talk

Oh Nikki that completely stinks and I'm sorry. I've been in your shoes so I totally understand. We went through hell and back to have my DS. You are entitled to feel down and to take some time for yourself. I'm sure everyone here understands. There are enough cheerleaders here on the board for one or a few of us to have a down day every now and then. Hang in there.

I'm so sorry Nikki. I know the feeling. Enjoy some time to destress and not think about TTC.

((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))) Nikki. I just went through a lot of these feelings myself. The end of your cycle is really tough. I am like you I bounce back from it but when I am down sometimes I just need to be by myself.

Please know that you have a lot of girls here that are YOUR cheerleader and we don't expect you to always be ours. I am so sorry that you are feeling so down.
