Need some encouragement...

I'm sitting here crying at our 2 year mark. Thought we had a good shot this month since we dtd every day of my fertile week.
I just want to give up. We've taken breaks, we've used preseed, vitamins, everything. I don't understand.
My husband thinks that maybe we just don't mix well.
Don't want to afford a specialist but that looks like the only route now.
I just don't get it. Why was I able to conceive with an asshole at 19 and now can't with my husband?
There's a lot going on in my life with my dad having cancer, work, school and such. So I guess it's for the best. But we've had such bad baby fever for so long. Make it hard.

Here's to 2 years. I think I can officially call us LTTTCers.

I understand! I'm on 2 1/2 with first baby... so sorry you have to go through this. I can tell you the only thing that has helped is having a plan of what we are going to do next about it (even if costly) nice to have answers. Maybe start with a sa test for your husband and start with the cheaper tests?

I am so sorry! We have been trying for almost two years as well and no luck! We've been working with fertility specialist the past 3 months and it's hard not to get your hopes up every month thinking it's it and then having a huge blow when its not. Even though I have my week or so if just random crying and breakdowns, I try to remember all the good I have in life and be greatful for that. Little getaways even just a daytrip with my husband also help to keep our minds positive. I know there really isn't much that anyone can say to make it better, but my heart breaks with you because I know how hard it is but you will get through it!!

We did the $50 fertility test in a box for both of us (haha) and both came back fine.
I did the full panel of infertility testing and nothing came back unusual. They did ultrasounds and the only thing that came back was that I have a tilted uterus, which should make things easier if anything. Plus, I've already had one baby. Why is it so hard???!

We're trying to stay positive. It's easier for DH since he doesn't have to do the pee sticks and notice every little twinge or symptom. Plus after the losses, he just doesn't want to get his hopes up anymore.

Thanks for the responses ladies!

Maybe when things calm down, we'll dig deeper and make the doctor's listen!

I'm sorry you have to join us here. I just joined the section myself as we are hitting 2 years this year. It is a great support but I think everyone here would be happy if they didn't have to join here..

We just had our first visit at a fertility clinic to get some answers and I am struggling coming to terms with that.

Did your DH get a sperm analysis yet? I think that would be the easiest thing to test first.
I hope that we can all get our bfps soon!
