Trying To Conceive #1 Only Vent Thread

[AussieBub]

I'm gonna vent with happiness right now as I've just given advice to two separate women in two separate threads and within a couple of hours they've both come back and told me they just got BFP's. I thought I'd feel bummed hearing other women getting their BFP's and me sitting here ho-humming until AF arrives and DH and I try again, but it's just given me this good feeling. I've been part of their life-changing important moment. Being part of that has taken my mind off my own problems. AF isnt due til Jan 3rd and I'm trying to ignore any possible symptom at the moment as I dont want to get my hopes up again.

I'm 9dpo and I noticed as of yesterday that I've been sleeping more at night then normal and still be feeling slightly sleepy during the day. I've been semi-constipated and whilst I dont feel i've been urinating more frequently, I do feel I pee more then I drink/eat. Skins gone all dry yet still breaking out and I've found I'm quite moody today as well as extra hungry and thirsty. As I said though, I'm trying to ignore all these symptoms as I wrote myself out for this month. DH and I only DTD once before O (the night before my predicted O). I havent mentioned any of this to DH as he reckons we go through this every month. Telling myself though that this month is out and to prepare for next month. But of course part of me is hoping that helping 2 women find out they're pregnant is a good omen for me and that I have actually been successful this month.... Gotta get those thoughts out my head. This is NOT my month!

Anyone else find themselves saying "Fuck Off" when people announce their BFP's on facebook?

Curse you online cycle calendar! My cycle is usually 31 days not 34...why do you keep altering yourself to say AF is due on Jan 6th when I know it's due Jan 3rd? Thanks to you I thought I was 9dpo but im not im 12dpo! I don't want to miss my predicted O date because you keep bloody changing randomly!

 

[Mimzy3]

First cycle of SI took it days 1-5 in hopes of pushing my O date up. Last month Ovd cd 30! Need to O before CD 20 while my hubs is here. Currently CD 14 and no O!!!!

Why am I so tired?!!!!!!!! This is really starting to annoy me! I've counted myself out of this month considering DH and I only DTD the night before predicted O. AF isnt due until Jan 3rd but i'm not convinced this is my month. I just cant stop being so damn tired though. I got up 12 hours ago (7am) and I had a 1.5 hour nap around 10.30am, yet I'm really tired now and all I want to do is go to bed! It's been like this for the past few days. I sleep for 10-12 hours then be lucky if I am able to stay awake for 12 hours in the day. Can't help but notice im opening my bowels a lot more too. Slightly constipated (sorry if tmi) but I open my bowel at least 3 times a day atm where as I only usually do once a day. I have no idea what my body is doing but it's driving me crazy!!!! I'm trying to tell myself im out for this month and not to get all hung up on SS but its so damn hard to ignore how i'm feeling lately. ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Another month counted out.... AF came full force. Thinking i want a cry fest but im so sick i dont want to make myself feel worse!

This last cycle I got my af a few days late, then it only lasted like 2 days followed by a few days of random spotting. On xmas eve I fainted for the first time ever and OH and his mom said maybe I'm pregnant... of course I'm not pregnant... right? I had my af just 2 weeks ago. Hungry, tired, nauseous... why am I having these things happen if I'm not pregnant... so ANNOYING not to mention FF is annoying too. Why can't I just be one of those teenagers that just gets pregnant and says oops.

every single time these days. Especially when you know the back story of the person that is not maternal or paternal material whatsoever. I think the worst facebook post I ever saw was a friend of mine who had 2 under 2, went to the 8 week appointment found out no heart beat. I felt bad for her, no one deserves that.

What I did get royally pissed off about is how she went on a rant saying she understand infertility and how she's never gonna have kids again (doctor didn't even tell her that, M/C do just happen even to healthy couples). I could've bitch slapped her had she said all of it in person.

She does not know the feeling of BFN's for months and then years on end, she does not know what doctor appointments for fertility treatments are like, to limit yourself in all sorts of areas in your life. You had 2 under 2. You (my friend) do not understand infertility!!!

Luckily, her DH was the smart one by calling her out on it telling her to zip it because many would give anything just to have one and she already had two under two and to cool her jets as it sucks yes but 2 successful pregnancies already, be greatful for at least that. I could've hugged her DH lol. Not saying she had no right to be sad but it was an insult for her to say she could relate to infertility and her DH caught on to the unfairness.

ps, the 3rd bfp that had no heart beat she conceived 4 months a after giving birth to her 2nd. Her 2nd she conceived 3 months after giving birth to her first.

ok this is not so much of a vent, it's more of a confession of cuteness. Have to tell someone about this. Our main water pipe broke and may not be able to get it fixed until next spring. What's the first thing that comes out of my DH's mouth almost in tears? "If it can't be fixed until spring there goes our sex life for a few months, there goes our chance to try for baby" Had to hug him and comfort him. So weird to be on the other end. For once I was the one that had TTC in the back of my head and had accepted that we would be forced into a break from TTC and he was the one overwhelmed by it. It was refreshing.

Well I slept from 7.30pm til 7am (WHY AM I SLEEPING SO MUCH?!) I woke up feeling very queasy and I had a massive sharp stabbing pain down my back. It hurt so much I arched my back and screamed out in pain, waking my husband. This is so annoying! Whilst I have no proof yet, I'm convinced I'm not pregnant but I just have no idea what the hell my body is doing! I HATE YOU SO MUCH RIGHT NOW BODY!!!!!

It's nice to know that they are thinking about it also and it's not just us with babybrain.

You def need to go to the doc. Fainting is serious have you made an apt. yet?

No I haven't... I've never seen fainting as that big a deal and I was only out for less than a minute. OH wanted me to go to a doctor just because after the fainting I've been getting spells of dizzyness here and there, but I just don't see the point... they're going to say I'm fine and go home.

 

[wellsk]

Not necessarily, as my DH has seizure that look like he's fainting.
Fainting can be much more serious than you think for a few reasons, not only could there be a sinister underlying cause for your fainting. You could also faint while driving, cooking, standing at the top of the stairs, in the shower/bath.

You should go to the doctors ASAP.

 

[Nazz4]

Would they be able to know now a few days later whether it was a seizure or fainting? I was actually wondering about it being a seizure or something because I actually pissed myself while I was out which I know happens during seizures, but OH said I wasn't moving or anything at all. I'm also lucky he caught me because if he hadn't I would have hit my head.

 

[wellsk]

Yes, they look at the brain waves to see if there's any difference in the way they react to different things.
As I said previously, my DH is perfectly still during his seizure and the standard clonic tonic seizure that you describe (jerky movement) are just one type of many!

8 ladies at school are pregnant, 2 more have had a child this school year. There are only about 30 staff at my school, when do I get a turn? 1.4 years TTC.

Just in case you are worried, I am 29 and an educator.

 

[tamithomas]

Dear friend of ours..we went to your house so that my DH can show your boyfriend how to cook a pork roast... you inching your way in front of your boyfriend while he's in front of the stove to the point where your boyfriend had to lean over to see my DH is really bloody annoying! Especially when you got your LO in your arms and blocking the view for my DH to give him to instructions. Stop being such an attention whore with your LO. You know how long we've been ttc'ing and that we lost our baby about 2 weeks before you gave birth and yet you still insist on being a bitch...I don't know why I even bother going with DH anymore. I'm to the point of not even wanting to go to keep him company which is the only reason I go. They're more his friends then mine.

Ive been having a giggle reading everyones post, but yet at the same time im soo pissed. So coming on here to get it out Anyways is it just me or when im on bb and i go into some of the forums like 2ww or ttc forums i just so pissed and annoyed when ppl posting about how miserable they are at ttc no2 or worse no3 i could tell them to fuck right off and stop moaning!!!! Some ppl have been ttc for no1 for months even years and they are on complaining that they have been trying for 4 months and nothing yet but already have one or 2 kids already, i feel like say yeah big frigging deal you moaning bunch of twats!

Also my friend (not overly close to) just texted me to say her and dh expecting baby no2, i sent back a congrats and then deleted the text straight away, she had only been trying one month. Was so jel and could not really be happy for her (i feel bad about feeling this way cant help it though)

I mean i do feel for ppl trying but i think my main gripe is these ppl should be blessed with the baby or babies they have and if they are lucky enough to have another baby then good for them but when you have no kids and are desperate you could just scream well i could at these annoying women!!!!

Sorry just have a moment, just wish it was my turn gd luck everyone x
