4 days until testing, but getting a little down:(

[WinterSong4]

I know what you mean about pressure from family and friends!

My mother is very sick and keeps saying "I want to see my grandchildren before I die"...
And my DH's grandparents are in the 90's and want to see their great grandchild. DH is the only child on his moms side of the family and thus our baby would be their ONLY grandchild/great grandchild!! It really is a frustrating thing....

All we can do is keep moving forward and hope for the best

Oh I know thats gotta be hard on you dear. My husbands grandparents are in their 80s. He's grandpa is as healthy and moves around like he's 40 But his grandma not so much, and she wants to bad for me to get pregnant. Just doing the best I can to do it, and everyone be happy! lol

Aw thats gotta be hard, just wish these crazy women would all leave us alone! lol They make TTC so much harder than it is to begin with

Its frustrating to say the least. As much as i appreciate any PMA from husband & family, my mom doesn't realise that i'm at that stage (9dpo) where i just don't know whats going to happen this month! I explained to her the other day that i had only just ovulated and wouldn't test for over a week, and she said "Oh you're no good then!" - I'm very impatient as it is, and it makes it even harder!! x

Maybe eventually they will back off a bit, I noticed your ticker is this your first month TTC?

It took me 10 months to conceive my beautiful daughter and well worth the wait! I was like you, after 5 months I stopped testing completely because it was sooooooooo depressing! Then on the 10th cycle, I got it a , and do you know when I seen the two lines I was so used to seeing just one I had to check the box to see if that meant pos+ or neg-!! Anyway, the week before I tested (was going on a hen weekend and decided to test that month) I dreamt I was pregnant, my mum dreamt I was pregnant and my SIL dreamt I was pregnant - and I was!!

This will be cycle 7 for me, hoping this weekend will bring me a positive! Im due on thursday, but trying to wait testing out some. But i've been having testing dreams and my mother in law and brother in law both had dreams this week about me announceing a pregnancy.

Few more days for both of us!!

But, I don't have symptoms at all, not even AF symptoms. Weird. I'm definitely not getting my hopes up this time.

We haven't told anyone we are ttc not because they annoying with questions I just don't want them saying things like you know what causes that..or are out of your mind..I already have 6 children 5 of which is living..We have 4 boys and 1 girl..We want one more.We are financially secure and don't rely on anyone but ourselves so I don't see where that is a problem for anyone but still if i even suggest it to family members that is usually the response I receive..we just decided not to tell them till it happens and were out of the first trimester..

 

[Gemmamumof2]

im testing in 4 days too...
i feel out now try think possitive but cant for long
been having loads of dreams of pregnancy x

Thats right! I'm at the stage now where i'm getting BFN's, telling myself its too early, and deep down believing that its not going to happen this month

Aw I know how you feel, usually I'm real hopeful, but I dont feel like this is my month. If you havent gotten pregnant this month, don't let it get you down, its only the first month. Honestly it just happens. I got pregnant so easy on my first month ttc, miscarried but 7 cycles later and nothing

Hang in there, Jennifer!! My AF came yesterday, and we're on to our 7th cycle...
