*!*JUNE testing thread*!* 11 BFP!!!

[teamstanlick]

Does anyone else feel...I don't know how to explain it...completely cynical about getting pregnant? This is a new feeling for me, but we've been trying for a long time now, with 2 miscarriages, and nothing at all for for the last 5 months, I feel like I'm never going to get pregnant. What's wrong with me? It's doing a number on my self-esteem. I couldn't support the two babies I lost, and now I can't even get pregnant anymore (it seems). I've just become sort of lethargic about it all now. I just feel like there's no point even HPTing because my period is going to come. I'm sorry ladies, I don't want to be a Debbie Downer, but my hope and faith in this process is dwindling. Everyone I know gets pregnant with ease, and I know SO MANY women having babies on or around my second due date. It's unbearable. I have so many baby showers coming up and I don't want to go to them but that would be rude if I didn't. Gah! Why does this have to be so effing hard?!

Oh Hun... i can relate to you so much. I've only had 1 miscarriage but i definitely know the feeling. This is my 10th month TTC after loss and i swear it feels like i'm destined to never have a child. Truth is, i believe that we WILL have our babies. Since we were lucky enough to conceive them, i think we definitely will get them back. Maybe not as soon as we want, but we will. I hate hearing people say "If you stop trying it will happen". Um HELLO? That is definitely not calming or soothing. I just wanna knock people out when they say that!! From CD 1 - Ovulation i'm just so down and out. I feel like crap. So upset, so sad, so depressed. Then after O i get pumped up and ready to see what this month brings. I've even taken hpt's at 5dpo! (crazy over here ) Once i find out AF is here i lose all hope and feel less of a woman. It's so normal to feel the way you do hun. I definitely feel it too. There's no words i can say to help you because i can't even help myself. Just keep trying and not let it get so over whemling. When it does get too over whelming then don't try to conceive that month. Sometimes we need a break. Cheers to a BFP for June!! Tons of for you!

Hi! Can I be added to unsure? This is my first month off of meds so I won't actually know O date and am back to trying natural while we save up for IVF! I am hoping we have a miracle and don't need it! So until then using OPK's and temping to see!

Good Luck to all I hope we see many BFP's in June!

Your feelings are totally normal! I've found that reading books on TTC helps me cope. Check out The Impatient Woman's Guide To Getting Pregnant. It has lots of tips you probably already know but the author makes you feel like you're not crazy for "trying so hard.". Another book I'm in the process of reading is Every Drunken Cheerleader Why Not Me.

Can you add me on June 22, please? I will hopefully be missing AF and testing on that day

Sweetie, I know how you feel. I have never gotten a positive pregnancy test EVER so I can't tell you much about that. I'm sorry for your two previous miscarriages. My DH and I decided after last month's doctor's appointment that we were going to stop Clomid (see my siggy). We had been doing that for eight cycles before we talked to our doctor about taking a break. My DH's SA wasn't so peachy either, so we have to wait on the Dept. of Veteran's Affairs to approve an ultrasound to his goods to see if there is something wrong with him. THAT can take an act of Congress to do. I am the ONLY one of my friends that doesn't have any children. I have nothing in common with any of them so I feel alone. I hope you will get your positive pregnancy test and will be able to have your beautiful baby.

Sorry if I sound like I'm rambling...

[Linzs304]

June is right around the corner!!! Who's ready it POAS?? hahaha

 

[babydust818]

I AM!!! lol 4dpo and all i wanna do is fast forward time

 

[danielle1984]

I'm so ready to test! The waiting is killing me. Each side of my breast felt a little bit tender last night and today they just feel heavy. I'm hoping it's a good sign. I usually get that before AF but it's only due on June 4th.

Trying to keep myself busy and not think about it is impossible.

I'm super exhausted too and I had a good night sleep. Funny cuz my fiancé had a dream that we had twins and I had the same dream but they weren't born yet

Babydust - The backache is a good sign especially if you are in early DPO.

I am 8dpo today, and feeling pretty good actually! I had a strange cramping during the morning of 5dpo, and thought my spotting was going to start...but nothing! And no other cramps either! SO not typical of my usual two week wait. I still don't feel as though my temps are showing any signs of me being pregnant, my breasts hurt last night to lay on, more than normal during the two week wait. Not sure if I'll crack and test early, but gonna try to make it to the 2nd!!! Good luck everyone!!

 

[contessa84]

oh yay could you put me down for June 6, this is cycle #2 TTC. We have been https for 4 years no luck. Praying for our bfp

Maybe the dreams are a premonition!?!? I actually had a dream 2 nights ago i had several positive HPTs but that is normal for me in my 2WW

You really think that it looks like a preg chart?! I am just grateful that it looks the way it does and not just flat lines anymore (I bought a new thermometer this month that is more accurate!!)

After talking to one of my friends yesterday, I started questioning my ovulation date. FF had put my crosshairs on CD 12, but I had changed it to 13 due to the very obvious pains that night. This may be me thinking (and wishing!) too hard but if I had left it alone, then I would be 10dpo, and my cramping would have been on 6dpo, more likely around the average time of implantation. What does everyone think? Should I stick with what FF gives me or base it on my O pains?
