Feeling reflective

[Rach82]

So I'm currently 7dp3dt and driving myself mad with all the hope and fear of the 2ww. I've fought off the urge to test early this morning and had a little cry getting dressed. My OH is distant and moody, probably because he's as scared as I am. I've been having highs and lows that I know are down to the hormones and can't stop thinking every symptom is a sign. I've got surgery scars on my belly and emotional scars in my head.

BUT I am holding on to this hope! You ladies are keeping me strong and sane! We are going to get through this so love to all you amazing warriors xxx

Wishing you lots of luck Rach. Keep holding on. I think often the OH don’t quite know how to react as we have to go through all the physical tough bit and they are just part of the emotional side. I know my guy finds it hard to watch me suffer physically when he can’t do anything to help. And they often aren’t as good as us at expressing their emotions so they just shut down.

Can I ask what your belly scars are from?

Fingers and toes crossed for you hun xxx 💖

[Rach82 in reply to Millbanks]

Thanks for your reply and your kind wishes. Yeah, men don't let on how they're feeling, so it's pretty frustrating! Just wish we could sit down and have a good talk, instead we're both keeping busy to keep our minds off the wait.

I have laproscopy scars; one in my belly button and one on the side where the stitches got twisted so I have quite a deep scar there. It's a reminder of the struggle I guess. Thanks again xx
