I knew it was only a matter of time before IF brain kicked in and started making me doubt this pregnancy. I was feeling really good about the pregnancy 2 whole days since I found out, but then last night I went to the bathroom and there was the slightest twinge of pink on the toilet paper. Mere drops of watery watery pink. I stopped breathing. Now the logical calm rational non IF pregnant girl would assume it is either 1. implantation spotting which makes sense being 7 days past transfer. or 2. irritated cervix from progesterone.
But I am not rational. I am hormonal. I am traumatized by the past. This fear and trauma I have experienced in my past makes me think several things but the bottom line is I don't believe I will actually get a live baby. I will miscarry. Something will happen. Not exactly a joyful journey in this pregnancy so far. So I realize I have to make a choice. I have to choose to TRUST and BELIEVE that God is going to take care of me and this baby/babies no matter what. It is all out of my control. No amount of obsessing, googling, or panicking is going to help. God knows my path.
I am under no false illusion that this way of thinking and believing will be easy. I am sure I will have to talk myself of a ledge daily, but I don't want to live in terror for 9 months.
Beta is Friday.
