This can't be healthy....

[Angel21]

Hi all,

Well, I'm 5dpo and have just started my night shift rotation. Last night at work went ok, had some rest just sitting down for an hour or so, time passed pretty quick, but I am having problems now! Can't sleep during the day, never have been able to, and I'm back on tonight, and tomorrow night. Got a month of this and it's just not good. I feel like the tiredness cannot be good for TTC, and if this month is my lucky month, well then that can't be healthy either!
Whilst I've been in bed I've been having what feel like period pains....and when you're lying there unable to sleep you begin to obsess over evry little twinge and if it isn't my month then the tiredness may delay my period, causing yet more questions and more heart ache!
I suppose this post has turned into a rant, and an excuse to symptom watch...at 5dpo...I'm going mad! I will try to sleep and no more stress

ah Angel! Its crap innit, the waiting is unbearable and like you say you think every twinge is something....im coming back as a man! x

I think it's the fact that I can't sleep too....I'm getting angry and frustrated with myself Aquarius, and then I can't sleep even more! And then I think more, then I can't sleep more, then I get angry more, and then.....x

Its a vicious circle! Go and make a cup of tea or hot chocolate and try to relax babe xx
