Trying To Conceive #1 Only Vent Thread

[wellsk]

awifey, who's been trying for 4 months? From what I have read cntrygrl has been TTC for 12/13 months (apologies if that's wrong) and I have been trying for 13 months.

 

[cntrygrl]

Lol I've been TTC since November of 2011. Only just started charting 4 months ago.

 

[awifey]

It was a random number.

Just watched a 20/20 where they followed around 4 teen girls during their pregnancies. At the end of the video they had them all say what they would want to tell other teens about having sex... they all went something like this, "Don't have sex because you can and WILL get pregnant" Well I know they don't know any better because it seems that way to them, especially the one girl who got pregnant after having sex her very first time. I also know they are just saying that to teen girls so they won't have sex and get pregnant because lord knows we don't need anymore of that... I wish it was that easy for all of us to get pregnant though.

One of the stories made me tear up though, this girl was due to have triplets, one of the fetuses died early on. Then she gave birth to the other 2 and one of them died 12 days after birth, and the other died shortly after. Can you imagine going through all of that AND as a teen in high school, and then coming out of it with no babies at all?! On the bright side (I guess) at least it gave her a second chance to grow up and go to college with out having someone to take care of all the time... but I would rather have the babies personally.

On a lighter note I think I just O'd yesterday by the looks of my chart, but we didn't BD hoping for healthy sticky bean anyways. How is everyone else doing out there?

Hi Everyone!

I haven't posted for a while so thought I would cheer myself up by saying hello some ladies who know exactly how I'm feeling.

We've been TTC #1 for about 18months now and are just being referred for more tests! Feels like a big step- but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't petified that someone will tell mr it's not possible

Just lately I honestly feel like I'm surrounded by pregnant
Ladies or new mums- don't get me wrong I'm happy for my friends- but each time someone announcing a pregnancy I'm smiling on the outside by crying
My heart out inside Think the best comment recently was "We weren't even really trying" I know it's not meant to upset me (these are friends who know I'm TTC) but it just makes me feel like a complete failure! I feel like they pity me sometimes and I really don't want that When's it our turn?

Sorry to moan everyone- it's just nice
To say it out loud sometimes, because I can't say it to others!!

Keeping my fingers crossed for my BFP in 2013 and I wish the same for all of you ladies too! Xxxxxxxx

I'm sorry, that is a pretty bad present

 

[lamago]

post on FB "We are excited for all 2013 has to offer! Have a happy and safe NYE everyone" and the first comment I get is "will 2013 bring a baby"

ugghh

Kim K and West having a baby are u freaking kidding me!??!! Poor Khole has been trying for years my heart goes out to her.

Khloe was my first tought too.

Grrr, I think I should close my facebook account for the sake of my own sanity!

Today we have 'My promise to my family... blah, blah, blah... share if you're a parent', many photo's of people's 'too-cute' children, and an image that says 'Sometimes when I need a miracle, I look into my daughter's eyes, and realise I've already created one'! Bleurrgghh!

I find the same thing in my facebook. Holiday pictures with baby's and friends with baby's right after they got married. It's hard to read, let's just keep hoping we're next!

Hey body, I thought I o'd two days ago? What's with the optimal high fertility cm today?!!!--off to change ticker

What does high fertility CM look like? I used to think it was the clumpy gooey stuff but now i'm thinking that's not it. Does it look watery?

 

[innerlaner]

Now, I truly feel like punching myself in the face. My friend, who I introduced to her current husband on my wedding day, just announced she's 6 weeks pregnant with #2. She told me she was going to try for #2 in October. She's my age. Where is my friggin #1 after 5 years of trying? I've never hurt anyone and shoplifted once when I was 11, no speeding or parking ticket. What did I do to deserve this?? If I was not meant to have children, stop my period so I can save on pads and tampons and IVF treatments. Give me clear signs that I will never have children so I can stop trying and hoping; I'm burning through my retirement trying .. Are you not happy until I'm childless and penniless?

Sorry to the ladies who just read this.

 

[babybemine]

I am tired of the tickers resetting themself. I did not have an AF therefore I am not onto the next cycle. GRRRRR

 

[Ayjay]

*big hugs* to you innerlaner, I know how you feel. Just wanted to say that.

 

[awifey]

The nearer is supposed to arrive the more DH asks if I'm pregnant yet. We have been through 17 cycles...since he watches my fertility calendar too, why can't he just wait and ask after the anticipated date for ?

Sorry you're having a hard time awifey. You're probably feeling the pressure already, without added emotions from him too

I sometimes wish my husband would show a bit more interest to be honest. We're on cycle 15 of TTC now and he has stopped asking anything about my cycle or expecting any BFPs. It's like he just thinks it's never going to happen, so we should just stop thinking about it any more and get on with our lives

 

[tamithomas]

Well it's official, O'ing atm and can't do anything about it. Feels like such a waste. I know I have more important things to worry about but I guess TTC'ing so long it becomes second nature to think about it no matter the circumstances.

In 2010 I was diagnosed with PCOS (misdiagnosed) i do have irregular periods but this week had my ultrasound and the RE said i didn't have PCOS!!! that he could see a folicllie where I had ovulated last month and everything looked good.So today I decided to take an ovulation test (first ever) CD23 it was positive!!! but my DH is in the middle of the ocean (proud but wish he was here!) won't be home till feb. I am so hoping that everything works out

Aargh! So the insurance at my work is changing over and it is not a seem less process in the country where I live. There have been ppl about to give birth who have been freaked and posting, that's ok. Now someone I met when we got here a year and a half ago and we've spent time with, was asking what to do (fb big group) about her appt. on Sat, that she would work on reimbursement later if needed because it's a maternity appt. Thanks for announcing like that!
