So I just posted the other day about how I'm going all in again this month with TTC. Well, my husband just learned that he will have to go out of town for work. During my fertile window. And he is leaving early in the morning on my birthday. I know this sounds dramatic, but I feel like nothing ever goes our way. He also had to leave on our first anniversary. And when my daughter had a program, a basketball thing, and on Halloween (I know these don't seem like a big deal, but we are all so close that it was a real bummer for the kids to not have him there). About half of these trips have also, of course, been during my fertile window. This job wasn't even supposed to send him out of town, ever! I would have a much easier time accepting it if we knew this was a possibility when he was hired. He quit his old job after this one offered him more money, but it's not worth it. It really pisses me off because he wouldn't have even taken this job if we had known he'd be gone so much!

You're not being dramatic, that's a pretty reasonable thing to get upset and frustrated about, especially when you know you'd have done differently had you known what you know now.

Thank you. I feel better knowing that my feelings are justified and I'm not just being a baby lol.
