Tired.

[NellyVille]

Is anybody else just plain worn out from all the ttc stress? I've been sat reading posts and making the odd comment and I've suddenly realised that I am well and truly wiped out.
I seem to have reached a stage where I just cannot be bothered to even think about it anymore. Does this mean I've given up?

I'm sick of it. I'm having a particularly bad tww (pretty sure AF is coming).

It possibly means you've given up, maybe BFP around the corner xx

I'm over it as well. Sick and tired of obsessing over it, having it constantly on my mind, plus depression and anxiety. I've gotten to the point of where I'm trying very hard to focus on my life, and to set LTTC on the back burner. Well, I won't stop trying. But I don't much give a feck right now about it. Maybe one day soon I'll be able to accept the card that life has dealt me...childless.

Me, too. Moving into my 4th year ttc after 9 years ntnp. My MIL tells me I'm getting old and to hurry up. If she only knew what I went through every month! But I don't talk about it.
I know the stress takes a toll on my body. Particularly stressful cycles have really bad pms or late ovulation. Although, I am starting to think I might have pcos. I've never been checked for it.
Anyway, I'm taking a break. I need to. Maybe you guys just need a break, too. Its not quitting! Just a pause.
I need to recharge, renew and find out WHO I am if not a mom in this life. I refuse to let this beat me.

Must say I feel the same way as the rest of you. TTC now 3+ yrs - am nearly 42 now so am fighting the clock. Had mc this time last year. Have been on clomid but currently on an enforced break whilst I have some abnormal hormone results investigated. Its a relief at the moment to have come off the merry-go-round. To not have to think about cycle days, fertile windows etc etc - is so nice. I dont know what 2012 and test results will bring and when the ttc can restart - but for now I think it will be good for me to just get on with life rather than just waiting.....

I am with you... I feel so very tired of TTC... it´s just too much.. I am sad, desperate, depressed, going crazy... TTC for 4+ years has changed my life, my marriage, my self esteem, my friends, my body.. Month after month is a roller coaster ride just to end up on the same silly BFN square 1.. I just plain hate it...

Although this thread is not a happy one - on a positive note - it does remind why this forum is so important to me.... its the only place I can discuss these things and people understand. Why does this journey have to be so hard and tiring. Wish we were all close enough to get together for a cup of coffee and a group hug!
I find myself so torn - wanting the ttc stress to stop - but not wanting to give up on something I want to badly. Dont know the answer - other than a break for a bit. If any of you want to talk one to one- feel free to pm maybe

It's always a help to know there are other's out there feeling the same. I have an appointment with the FS in February so I think I'll do what I can to put ttc to the back of my mind until then as I'm already doing everything I can until we've seen him.

Rosebud I've said it before and I'll say it again - you are my hero!! To put up with this hell for 16 years and still not give up hope, you are one very special lady and I really hope you get your bfp very very soon xx
