Can I vent for a hot minute?

[runnerjenny]

I need to vent, is that okay? I have no one else to talk to about this really.

So my husband came home today and told me some news. His best friend's wife is pregnant! Yay her!

The facts are these: His BF got married in June and now they are PG. She has never been all that nice to me and I really can't stand her, but for my husband I must make nice. I love his best friend, he is like a brother to me.

They know we are TTC, we told only our closest friends and they got married with a "let's see what happens" kind of attitude. Meanwhile, I am charting, temping, reading countless books, checking CM, doing OPK's. The whole enchilada. Sigh.

We are headed out to dinner at their house with a bunch of other people and I do not want to go AT ALL. Plus, I want to vomit.

Also, I still have one more week to wait until I can even POAS and if it's a no go then we get to wait 30 more glorious days until my next scheduled FW.

ARGH!! Well, I guess I get to go play nice for a few hours while all I want to do is go outside and scream obscenities.

Thanks for listening.

Sorry Jenny Maybe scream into a pillow? I let some fly in the car on the way home from work today, it felt good.

I'm with rose. Have a drink now to take the edge off. That always helps me when I'm pissy and there's no way around it. (I sound like a person of high moral fiber, do I not?)

No advice just a (((hug)))

Vent away! I've definitely felt like that before and it sucks.

I agree with the others on the drinking beforehand though

Do you own a flask? I would get one and throw it in your purse for situations like this. lol

Sorry you have to suck it up and deal with her. No matter how happy I am about someone being pregnant, I am always more jealous than I care to admit. Especially when they haven't really been "trying".

I keep having dreams that my friends are getting pregnant before me; that's bad enough...and here you are with real life drama. It sucks, there's no way for it not to, esp when you/we are doing the "right" things to get pg.

I'm with the others (obviously) throw back a drink or two...call it an early night since it's a Tuesday.

Then drink more at home for good measure...

Oh man, that sucks. Have 2 drinks before you go.

This is a great idea.

I have been jealous of pregnant woman for years! Only agreed to TTC as of this month. Lol

Hugs!

First, vents are always, always okay!

Second, that sucks. But I hope you did what everyone said and drank before (and during ) the dinner.

This is CERTAINLY something we shouldn't rule out. :Y:

[FastHands]

Blarg, that sucks.
I try to tell myself that people who announce pg "out of nowhere" have actually been secretly trying for as much as several decades. Even if they're 16. I find lying to myself to be very soothing.
