Trying To Conceive #1 Only Vent Thread

[Jett55]

I am so ready to be a mom! This is the most frustrating thing ever especially since you have no control over it. I'm so tired of getting my hopes up every single month then balling my eyes out.

I feel you even before we were officially TTC i would cry when af would come. I know I'm going to be devastated if she comes on the 18th :/

Thought some of you ladies here could use this

Vent for today "Why is it taking months?". In all honesty, if someone asked me how long I thought it'd take to get pregnant, I've have said I'd fall after stopping the pill. I'm approaching my 7th month and nothing!
My cycles are awful in length being: 28 days, 90 days, 33 days. I'm really starting to believe that somethings wrong with me!

Thanks biology, you've really ticked me off. DH and I were planning on getting back to TTC this month but I somehow managed to either pull a muscle or chip a bone in my foot because now it looks how it would look 8 months bfp. if it's not healed by next week we can forget about BD'ing. Just the slighest touch right now has me curled up in a ball. If it's not one thing, it's another. So tired of this, I just want our bfp. It will be year 4 starting July.

Over a year BFN every time! Getting ready for AF to kick in any time now. When will I get my BFP? I"m so tired of waiting, and dealing with the disappointment every month!

My DH and I are best friends with another married couple who got pregnant first try while NTNP, we found out at 5 months of ttc for us. That was so hard, but now the husband (I know he means well) keeps telling us to hurry and get pregnant so he and my DH can walk around with babies in front pouches. But it's hard, obviously I would have be pregnant long before them if I was able to just hurry up and get pregnant... /sigh

I know! Curses!

I am so, so hurt right now. I have hit the ten month mark TTC, and just saw another person's pregnancy announcement on Facebook. I honestly felt like punching my computer screen. How much disappointment can a girl take? Why do they get to pregnant and I don't? What the hell have I done to the universe that we can't make a baby, but this one girl who bounces from relationship to relationship gets pregnant accidentally?

I know it sounds horrible, but I hate finding out when other people in my life are pregnant. It hurts my heart so badly. I just want to cry.

Dear Fizzyfefe,

I understand how you feel. FB only rubs salt to the wound. I hope you overcome this and show God and the rest of the world that you can do it too!!!

Lots of baby dust to you!

Went back to the doctor and got my blood results back (not for pregnancy) and they pretty much confirmed that I have pcos. The doctor who diagnosed me did so after an ultrasound but my current doctor says that's not always enough for an official diagnosis. So from my bloodwork results my free testosterone is elevated and my fsh/lh ratio is too high which officially makes it official! It sucks but i guess it's good to know what the problem is. my heart goes out to those with unexplained infertility, I couldn't imagine having no idea why I wasn't getting a BFP. So I guess I'll just be grateful that I know what's wrong and I can do something about it.

Right now I'm praying for the Metformin to work!! My doctor said that if I don't cycle on my own within a month she's going to put me on birth control for three months (while still taking Met) to see if that will jump start my cycles/ ovulation. I know it could work but if it doesn't I would feel like I wasted three months and feel like I probably would've conceived if it wasn't for the birth control. Idk it's up to me to make the appt so technically I could wait a little longer to go in about the birth control seeing as I have enough Metformin to last me a while.

But on the bright side, I've started losing weight 12lbs gone in three weeks!!

Don't feel bad!! It was a normal reaction for you to be upset about the way she announced her pregnancy. But trust me we all know that you would NEVER wish for anything bad to happen to her or the baby. Sadly women lose babies all the time and it's nobody's fault. I think it's a good thing that you can sympathize for her! It means TTC hasn't made you a bitter person, which happens with some people. I know you will probably still feel bad for different reasons but please don't feel bad because of your initial reaction. I'm here if you ever need to talk!

Read that low iron can cause infertility. My vitamins don't have iron, I'm a vegetarian and my mom and grandma have history of low iron... fML

Thank you alycon and plus I never did snap on her for doing it on my wedding i came to the vent thread which idk what I'd do without bnb. I know it's not my fault it happened things like that can't be prevented it happens unfortunately but I do feel a tad bit guilty for feeling so mad & of course it's natural to feel sad since it would've been my niece or nephew. But on the bright side at least she has a child I know it sucks losing her second but we can at least be thankful for the one she does have. And if I get my bfp this cycle I might wait a tad bit before announcing it to everyone so I don't upset her. although I might post pics of the test on fb since she doesn't has one but don't want to get my hopes up just waiting for monday night to see if the witch shows! Thank you very much! def made me feel a ton better

What the hell? I waited 31 days for my AF only to get this light bleeding and only for two days. Body what are you doing?! My periods always start off heavy and stay that way until day 5 or 6. I never have a period shorter than 5 days. WHAT?!

Argh I am so irritated! My husband's ex girlfriend just announced she is 3 months pregnant. That wouldn't bother me as much as it is, but by my calculations, she had to have fallen pregnant within 2 weeks of her getting married (Dec 31st). We found out from her sister (my husband's friend) that she had decided they wouldnt try for kids until they got married. Now there's no saying that, that's true but her and her now husband have been together for 9 months in total and managed to get pregnant straight away. I am so irritated. Out of all my husbands ex's (which isnt many), she is the only ex that I generally dont like. And she gets everything. I had a miscarriage at 6 weeks back in January. It's not fair I have a miscarriage at the same time she finds out she's pregnant. And her bean was a sticky bean.

I just wish I never heard about her pregnancy. It's just made me feel so depressed. I hate her! Why does everything work out peachy for her. She is a horrible woman. I hate it so much!

 

[lamago]

I hate her too aussibub! I'm sorry about your miscarriage. I count monts for friends that recently married and got married. I have three couple friends that got married and had their baby before their 1 year anniversary. We are already out for that happening ;(
