Hi everyone! My DH and I have been married for 4 years. I'm 27 and we have been TTC for baby #1 for 4 months now. Before that we weren't trying, but weren't preventing either for probably close to a year, we just figured if it were meant to happen, it would happen. Knowing what I know now, that's just terribly naive.
I have a crazy cycle that can vary from 35-45 days. My Dr doesn't want to see me until we've been TTC unsuccessfully for 12 months. (But I scheduled an appt for October because, well, I just need to chat with her.) I've been told (too many times at this point) that I may not even be ovulating. And I really want to have that checked out.
Every time I think "this is it, this is the month." Then AF comes a knockin'. It's really depressing. I know I haven't been TTC for as long as some of you, but I empathize, really I do. It's just almost unbearable sometimes. You don't realize how much you want something until it's out of reach. For me anyway. And it doesn't help that every other female in my family is "Fertile Myrtle." One even got pregnant with #4 with Mirena inserted. I thought, "geez, come on!!!!" So that's what prompted me to join this site.....being in touch with people going through what I'm going through.
I've been told, "I guess you just don't want kids, huh?" Some people are so insensitive. We've only told my parents and hinted to his that we're trying. I don't want to jinx anything.
So that's my howdy. Have a nice night y'all! (Why yes I am from Texas, why do you ask?
