You thought for sure you were pregnant this time… You are three days late and you decide to use a public restroom only to find your stupid period has arrived. You spend a few minutes sobbing quietly in the stall, wipe your tears away and slowly walk back to the table, pretending nothing has happened. You mention your breakdown to no one until you get home and sob to your partner.

Note: you may have also sobbed in the other following toilets: the gym, a friends’ house, work (definitely work), shopping mall, an airplane, the list goes on and on…

    I think tomorrow I might end up crying because I am going to take the usual idiotic pregnancy test!

    On a plane. From Salt Lake City to Paris. Where I was about to spend 14 days on a business trip without DH. Do the math.

    This is pathetic, but I’ve cried at my work desk. When my co-workers ask me what’s wrong, I tell them a lame lie, “I’ve got something in my eye.”

    I was at a conference & was late by three days and had all the symptoms, I was sure this was it! Call my sis and told her. We agreed we’d meet later so that we can do the test together. At lunch time I went to the loo and there it was, the greatest indicator that I was not pregnant! I cried so much and I almost hit the bar at lunch time…
