5 months of BFN...

[Ramsey2010]

My husband and I are on our 5th month of BFN. I know it's only 5 months , some women wait years. But it's still extremely hard.
Almost everyone I know who got married after I did , already is or has started their families.
This is my first time joining a group - felt like I needed some support in this! I am looking for others to join me!

I feel your frustration. It's been almost 6 months for me.

I'm sorry. We are on our 4 month TTC. AF is due next week and we had a bad month with BD so I'm pretty much assuming I'm out this month. I know how it feels to see everyone around you start having children. I know it's only been 4 months but I'm 32 and terrified that we will never have kids. I know there is know reason to think that yet, but I find myself getting more pessimistic every month.

Good Luck!!!!!

Yup, same here. Been trying since September.

I think I can understand. My husband and I have been trying for a year. I get so discouraged every time I get a "not pregnant"on the HPTs. I feel so emotionally exhausted being reminded every month by my period that I'm not pregnant. I finally convinced myself to get an OPK this cycle because I want it enough to just "let nature take its course". I hope this will work for us.

Good luck to all of us ladies ttc!

We are 5 months also and my friend just announced her pregnancy (unplanned) and my cousin just announced hers too. It's very hard playing the waiting game especially when everyone else is getting pregnant around you!

impatient. feeling impatient and defeated. and like it's never going to happen.

My husband and I are on our 25th month of trying and sadly I am sorry to say it has only gotten harder. We have watch so many people get pregnant and have babies. Most unplanned and all unmarried. Including My mother in-law with my now 10 month old baby sister in-law! It is very hard but I know it will all be worth it in the end! Best of luck to all of yall!

I have been trying since September as well. This will be a great thread for all of us to get the support we need! Glad I found it!

I haven't been trying long - just a month of official trying - but we waited for four years and I've seen most of my friends (bar one) get married, have babies, have two babies… in the period since we got married.

I know I haven't been at it long but man I have wanted this forever. We haven't used birth control for about five months but we were sort of avoiding ovulation time so it was sorta NTNP in a way, of course I've thought I'm pregnant every month since October! It's really tough. I've seen a BFN so many times during our marriage - and we would have welcomed a BFP so readily even if the timing hadn't been absolutely perfect!

I had a complete meltdown when AF came unexpectedly the other day. I was convinced it was IB and it turned into full blown AF on CD 25 when I'm normally 31 + days! I mean, how cruel is that?

Sorry if I'm not in the right place.

I hope that this month is lucky for us all!! I bought the Clear Blue Digital OPK this month. I have been temping now for 4 months and it seems like we just keep missing it! So hopefully this month we can be ahead of the game!!

I feel like we have been missing it as well!! Do you like the digital OPK? I used the stick ones this past month and trying to interpret the lines drove me nuts! haha!

 

[trumpetbeth]

The digital is pretty easy. Just a smiley face appears or nothing I Iike it... It is just expensive

I'm only on month 2, but I'm turning 33 on Wednesday and I have allowed myself to be convinced this will be a long journey for us. I only have a couple friends who have no kids....all the rest are pregnant or have 1 or 2 children. I just want to be part of their club. I know its silly to feel left out, but that is just how I feel.

So I got a positive OPK on Thursday 2/13 on the CBDFM. Then on Friday and Saturday I had a temp rise... Then today it went back down.. I have egg white CM today, was the OPK wrong? It was my first time using it, maybe I ovulate 3 days after a positive? Is that normal?
