Feeling crappy today

[tigger343]

I know that I should be happy but I just found out my sister in law is due with their second baby, don't get me wrong I am happy for them but I couldn't help but have this sinking feeling that it will be a hard road for me.

my periods are irregular ever since I went off the pill two years ago, I have brown discharge for like 4 to 5 days before I get a period which may last three days then just stop and go back to brown discharge. I have asked my ob gyn if I have something wrong with me and I dont really get any answers other then its in my head, also this may be tmi but I sometimes sex is soo painful and I burn so badly. I also have a history with bladder infections too. I also never have much change in my cm either

needles to say this isnt helping my ttc journey and I am so afraid to go to the doctor for them to tell me things are fine and its in my head because that is what I get from them, I also dont want to hear that something is wrong either.

I have an ovacue monitor and I am taking estrosmart plus with vitex so hopefully something helps I also am trying pre seed this month too.

I hope this isnt to much ranting but I just feel alone and I dont really know what to do to help my body get back to normal

Hi Tigger,

I can hear the pain in your email and first let me say that I feel for you and how hard this journey has been.

As for the doctor, you DESERVE to get your questions answered by your doctor. You cannot let any doctor brush you off and you deserve to get any tests/treatments that you need to make sure dream happen. Don't take "you're fine" for an answer if you really, really do feel something is wrong.

I know the urge to overreact too. I've only been TTC for 6 weeks and I am already worried about having to go to the doctor, get tests, infertility, etc. However, I also know when there is actually something wrong vs an emotional reaction. If you really feel something could be wrong, please go and get it checked out.

As far as finding out information you might be afraid of- think of it this way- if something IS wrong, you will get help faster than waiting. If you wait, you might be missing precious months when you could be getting pregs. If you go and everything is fine, it will just boost your confidence and might be the stress relief you need.

Sending thoughts and baby prayers your way.

I feel your pain, it's such a hard feeling to want something so badly and be trying so hard and have someone close to you get it so easily. I'm actually in your same situation and I pray that you get your baby soon! Please go see another doctor about your periods. I was given provera to regulate my periods and I think it would help you. It basically cleans you out completely so you can start fresh. Hoping for your BFP soon!

I'm so sorry you are feeling this way. It's really hurtful when people all around you are getting pregnant and you aren't. Especially hurtful when those people aren't trying and aren't even ready (this happened to me recently). My suggestion to you is to go to a different dr... It is their responsibility to help you (it's their job for goodness sake). If you don't get any answers then go on to the next person who is more proactive about it. Hopefully you will get your answers and a bfp soon. Good luck to you
