No worries, I already had my pout about it not working this month over the weekend, so I wasn't disappointed this morning.

[jewel]

I feel like I pee on a stick (or rather, in a cup) every damn day of my life. Between OPKs and pg testing before it's even remotely possible....I'm really only not testing if I'm on my period. It's seriously crazy, I know.

I also have a FB friend from high school who is newly pregnant. She's subscribed to several pregnancy updates and is constantly posting "This is how your 11 wk fetus has grown" with the whole article attached or "Your baby is the size of a....". No one else really needs multiple weekly updates on her pregnancy. I'm going to have to block her.

Yep - BLOCK!

IF is turning me into an emotional, bitter hag. I am not a crier and lately everything (and I mean everything) is making me sob. I am bitter about anyone else's good news and extremely frustrated about our situation. Ugh.

I just want to get off BCP already. My body does not like it. I have a cyst, very horrible cramps, terrible menstrual migraines. I wanna die right now. I just can't convince H to get on board with me stopping bcp.

And I have switched BCP a few times to play with the hormone levels, etc. and its always the same.

[berbles]

Skips, I had the same problems with BCP. Estrogen pills made me fucking cray-cray (and destroyed my libido) and progesterone pills give me migraines. Tell your H that you're miserable and you want off. Switch to condoms until you're ready to try. You're not the only one with the responsibility to make sure you don't get pregnant. That's some booshit.

I think I'm going to talk about that this weekend. It'll also save us $60 a month! lol.

:Y:
I was ready to have a baby a little earlier than DH was, and I was ready to come off of BCP even a bit before that. I told DH that I was "tapping out," and it was his turn to make sure we didn't have a baby if he wasn't ready yet, and that it was his option whether that meant using condoms or him not getting any. lol

[berbles]

Perfect response, fasthands.

[Deleted]

I'm going to tell him I can't take bcp anymore. I don't want the migraines. I don't want the horrendous PMS symptoms. I'm tired of this fucking cyst bothering me (and I actually have to STAY on bcp for it to go away). I don't like having a sex drive the size of my pinkie toe. I wanna shank someone.

[berbles]

I was going to ask - usually BCP helps with cysts. Are you going to have it monitored when you stop BCP?

[Deleted]

I have to go back to my gyno in a month or so. If I'm still in pain I'll go.

I texted H and said I wanted to stop my BCP because I'm miserable.

He then responded with a remark that will probably offend a lot of people (He's Mexican and it's along those lines)

I'm part Cuban! That's sorta close! I wanna know! I love inappropriate humor!

[HoneySpider]

Haha I like inappropriate humor too Please share!

[Cheesecake]

I <3 inappropriate humor. Promise I won't be offended, please tell us!

Also, I agree with everyone re condoms. We always used condoms, I'd been on BCP since I was very young and just didn't want it anymore. Stopped taking those before we got together so until we were ready to TTC we had to use them. I know a lot of guys whine about it, but they'll change their minds real quick when they learn the alternative is NO MORE SEX!

[berbles]

Totally agree. Last year we started talking more seriously about when we were going to start TTC. Well I decided (on my own) that if we were going to start in the next year, I wanted my IUD out so that my cycle had time to regulate. I'd been on some form of birth control since I was 12, so I really had NO idea what my "normal" cycle looked like. So I scheduled the IUD removal and just told H that we'd have to go back to condoms if he wasn't ready yet. Or, ya know, just not have the sex. He went out and bought condoms like that night. LOL

[Deleted]

LOL

Well the text convo went like this

Me: I really wish I could stop taking my birth control. I'm feeling hella miserable and i haaaaaate this shit.
H: Well then we could be real meskin's and have 12 kids!"
Me: owww my vagina
H: You mean clown car.
