I am not pregnant! I dont want to be pregnant! But yet every time I thought I was I took a test and its negative and I felt sad. I am on BC and taking it faithfully and Im glad Im not pregnant! lol, but I feel sad when I see the negative test. If anyone else felt this way, can you maybe explain why?

This is ultimately why I ended up pregnant with my daughter, we had a pregnancy scare and although my son was only eight months old I was sad when the test came out negative, upon further discussion with my SO we decided it wouldn't be a bad idea afterall. This time around I know that I would probably feel the same sadness, but the difference now is we both know we can't take on the additional responsibility now. I have the Mirena so I don't get tempted before the appropriate time, and well if it fails and isn't ectopic then the baby was meant to be and we'll figure it out.
I think it's just in our chemistry to feel this way... women need to want to be pregnant, or why would we get pregnant at all? It's nine months of a lot of discomfort ending with a rather embarrassing and painful display to a room of strangers. Yes, we need to want to do that... or the human race would end.
