I took a pregnancy test this morning. It was negative. This means two things. 1) I will be getting my period in the next day or two, 2) I will be miserable, since I can't take strong painkillers as my surgery is only 6 days out.
This is not helping my negativity from the last few days. It does seem a little bit hopeless. I'm heading up to the mountains this afternoon to spend the next four days with friends, all of whom have children. Luckily, children don't really bother me the way pregnant women do (and I'm hoping against hope that none of my friends who I haven't seen in a while have a surprise pregnancy announcement to make when we arrive - I might have to cry). Children are cute and say hilarious things and make me laugh. Pregnant women, on the other hand, are just symbols of my failure.
And I got yelled at at work today. and almost cried. I need more time off. I think I'm getting depressed.
Hmm. What does the surgery in six days have to do with pain killers? I guess I've never heard of that before!
ReplyDeleteHoping your trip to the mountains goes well. Hugs.
As it turns out, most painkillers are blood thinners, so you can't take them before surgery because you need your blood to be working properly... The mountains were great! Except for the horrible cramps, of course.
