Should we not think about it too hard?

[mommylove]

I've had babies on my mind ever since our 1st cycle TTC, we are on our 5th cycle now. Do you think if i not think about it so much it will happen easier?

Wow is that even possible?! Anything's gotta be worth a go right. Good luck!

 

[mommylove]

i don't even know whats possible! =) I've heard of women who have been TTC for a very long time, and when they stopped thinking about it and just letting it happen when it's supposed to, they got pregnant. I guess anything is worth trying!

I tried not thinking about it but i dnt think it works!! am obsessed!!! x

xxvickyxx,
I'm the same way! I try not to think about it, but it's hard not to obsess about it when you want it so badly. Im glad that im not the only one going through this, its nice to know there are websites like this to chat with people going through the same things! =)

 

[xxVickyxx]

I know, i am sooo glad i found this website because ive not told many people that we are ttc and its so good to be able to read other peoples experiances andtalk about it with people who are goin through the same thing!! i honestly thought conceiving wud b so easy but i was so wrong, i dnt even know whether am actually ovulating yet and i keep using the sticks but not positives, i have so many symtoms but mayb its all in my head!! i dnt know lol x

I was thinking this too a few weeks ago.
As much as I try NOT to think about it, I think about it more...I think. lol!

 

[mommylove]

ME too! The more i try not to think about it, i find myself obsessing even more! My husband and i just got married last month, and he says that now that we are married he thinks it's gonna be meant for us this month. but i dont know! =/

I am in the same boat. I am totally obsessed and going into my 5th cycle of trying. I know 5 months is not long.... but it seems like it is a long time.... especially when we are really trying every other day throughout the month and I have regular cycles. I keep wondering what is wrong with me. I feel like everyone I know got pregnant in month one of trying. So now I am convinced there is something wrong with me.... of course. I charted for a month, did the opk for a month.... and decided to take a couple months off from that stuff. No luck! So I am going to use the opk this month and be hopeful for another month.

Anyway... totally feel your frustration!

You're not going to like this but... we TTC'd for 2 years... I gave up in October 2010, had my last period on October 26th 2010... got pregnant in November having only had sex the once, no opks, keeping legs up, folic acid etc.

I think it helps if you don't try to stress too much for your own sanity but I'm not sure if giving up actually helped me conceive xxx

You sound like me! This our 5th cycle and we just got married at the end of June. What CD are you on? I should be ovulating Sat or Sun. Maybe we more alike lol

Hey guys,

Its been so reassuring reading these comments. We have just made the big commitment to stop taking contraception with a view to trying for a little one for the first time. Im now on my period and starting to chart (ovulations sticks and fertility monitors in the post!)

Im trying not to be too crazy about it because i want my poor unsuspecting hubby to think were just lucky but I feel I have waited my whole life for this and just simply cant wait!

Thanks for helping me feel normal.

I honestly thought it was so easy and i know ive only been trying for 3 months but it actually feels more like 3 years lol!! I suppose it will happen when the time is right, just wish it was this month xx

 

[kittymarie]

we could tell ourselves but would it work, is the question! haha

 

[mmlovepink]

i've heard not thinking about it actually helps - less stress, more natural conception. i dunno though, it's almost impossible to do!

 

[Cowgirlranda]

Believe it or not everyone it works to not think about it, I found out im pregnant yesterday when I didn't even expect it, we were being safe most of the time (Most is the key word) and when af was due she didn't arrive so I waited seven long days to test and I have a vvvv strong positive, it is worth not thinking about it in the end.

Hmmm..I'm glad for this forum as it gives me more knowledge about ttc...but, at the same time...do you think by being on this forum regularly that we become more obsessed? I think I am. I think I shall limit myself to perhaps twice a week on this forum. hehe. In some ways I'm thinking of ntnp...but then, I want to actively try. anyways, I just got to trust God, not stress.
