I've been trying for more than 6 months now, i know that's not as long as some people, but as my username states, I'm 26, so I'm so frustrated!
I was really hoping/thinking that since I'm so young, I would have a nice, easy time getting pregnant. Of course, other people I know, even people in their mid thirties, just seem to get pregnant at the snap of a finger, while my partner and I are very actively trying with no success!!
Now I question everything. Is it because I used to take horrible depo provera? (It made me gain a lot of weight and it's evil!)
Is it because I had that ovarian cyst two years ago? Do I have more cysts? Do I have PCOS?
What's wrong with me???
I am going to see my dr for a physical next Thursday, hopefully this is a productive step and I hope that we don't discover anything terrible. (I am a worry wart in case you can't tell.!)
If we don't pinpoint anything specific that the dr can help with, I want to try acupuncture, as long as I can afford it...I recently quit my job to do freelance work instead so no health coverage now.
(It was a very toxic environment so I had to leave! Toxic as in the people, mostly my boss, were toxic)
So there's my BFI for you (Big Fat Introduction! Ha!)
I just got my AF (I'm not sure what that stands for but I think it means your period) today, 7th or 8th since I've started trying- that's the thing, I always get my period, so there's no problems with that... anyway I'm always extra depressed when it comes, I get so mad at my body for letting me down, again.
Oh, one other thing...since I've been ttc, I swear my body messes with me! After a few months my period would come late, or I would even spot, then stop, then start again, which it never used to do!
And in July I went through a week where I was nauseous and threw up a few times, I was so sure I was pregnant then, but no, once again, no.
Sad day today, feeling frustrated! But that's why we're here, right?
