Trying To Conceive #1 Only Vent Thread

[FireLyte]

I am so not looking forward to waking up in the morning. My Facebook has already begun flooding with posts about Mother's Day. I was so excited earlier this wek, thinking I may have been lucky enough to get a bfp in time for my anniversary and Mother's Day. Turned out to just be an evap line, and I'm even more upset by the bfn than otherwise.

I still have a little hope left in humanity. I logged on to FB expecting to be ambushed by Mother's Day posts when I saw this on my newsfeed:

I saw that after scrolling through about 50 mother's day postings including a freaking meme on a sonogram. Grr.

I cried.

I also thanked the poster.

Confided in a close friend last night about the possible m/c (I am sick of calling it that but feel I would be insulting women everywhere if I just assumed one way or another).
She thinks it's not a great idea continuing trying for a child while I'm so stressed. She has a point (me and DH had a brief falling out last night, but we're okay now) and I respect her opinion, but the minute I even suggest the idea to DH, I want even more to be a mother.
I also found out recently that something I was born with could be genetic and I'm worried I could end up putting future children through what I had to go through.

I need a holiday, spa break or something. For starters, anyways.

Had a manager wish me a happy mothers day... she knows im having issues ttc and she made me tear up. She wasn't saying it to be mean but kind of an uplifter

I think this person said it perfectly!

Thank you for that post the M/C one. On my end it's been the total opposite, total oblivion to any other sort of mother then those who have given birth. I shut them up when I shared a post happy mothers day to those who are mothers only in our hearts. Needless to say, no one has even liked it yet all the other happy mothers day posts from everyone else has. This, this is what's wrong with society..they'd rather shove their head in sand then face reality that people aren't always yay on mothers day

I get to experience on FB post for the UK and US. I am tired of people asking me when I am going to have a baby. If I could make myself have one I would. I am going to be getting some testing done. My DH already had children from a previous partner. I just never thought it would take this long. I have had my IUD removed over a year ago and I swear if I would have known how much it was going to mess me up I would have never had it. I am just so frustrated. I just want to be a mom. I am going to be 30 this year and I wanted to be a mom before then but it is too late now. I hate how people say to relax and it will happen. I feel like my friends and family put more stress on me. Why is it if you have been married for a few years people assume you are going to get pregnant. I swear I am going to try not to ever bring it up with other females in public again because I do not know their personal life and what is going on. Sorry for the long rant.

It is like so many people forget about women who are struggling.

Glad Mother's day has come to an end. I literally shut down my facebook for the day and couldn't go on due to so many overload of mothers being the best thing on earth. I totally agree, it's just the hurt of knowing I was supposed to be a mother right now that feels like it's a kick in the gutt reading that stuff. Feels safe to go back on now.

Def give my church a ton of props for not bein just about natural mothers today they honored mothers,spiritual mothers, even aunts cause every woman is a mother in one way or another. I even got a small gift this morning even though I'm technically not a mom but it made my day

CD1. Why can't get oregnant? What is wrong with my stupid body? I am now onto cycle 7. It is a huge mental block for me now, 6 months of trying, 6 wasted months of my life. Why won't this happen for me? Why does it happen for those who don't want it?

 

[HBGirl]

Grrrr! I woke up to cramps but now no blood. I always spot the day before AF but had none yesterday, now no bleeding. I always start in the morning. Way to mess with my emotions AF!

 

[ashntony]

Well, now onto the waiting game. Waiting and hoping for O....

 

[FireLyte]

Sitting at cd113, of cycle... 6, maybe 7, since starting TTC? (Started November 2011). *Sigh* No sign of AF, and I'm beginning to question what I think are ovulation pains. Could of sworn I o'd 4/25 and/or 4/26 b/c of ovulation pain, but no sign of AF. Took several HPT's last week, one BFP at the beginning of the week, but all negatives since, and I've been using the same brand for all of the tests. I would be over the moon for a bfp right now, but really, I think I would settle just for AF so we can get this show on the road. Ugh!

So, I've been so stressed lately that I've now developed 6 mouth ulcers...a few days before a uni presentation. This wouldn't be an issue aside from the fact that I can't talk properly. eugh.

Another month, another cycle, another BFN!!! And today I find out a girl I'm working with is pregnant. Oh, and of course, "we weren't even trying." Was her response. Wellllll whooped dee flipped do girl! I'm sooooooo happy for you! Not like you complained the entire time you were pregnant the first time 18 months ago. That one was a "whoops" too. So happy that your BC methods failed you. Better luck next time I guess...feeling mean today 😠😕

 

[MrsShannahan]

20 days late today. No sign of af. Bfn after bfn. Pretty sure there's something wrong in there. :/

Saw my dr Friday. She ordered a blood test and ultrasound to look around and see what's going on. Hoping they'll call and schedule me today. *sigh*

Hugs to you! BFN after BFN is rough! 🌷

Worried I've missed ovulation AGAIN this month. I was using the CBFM however it only asks for test sticks till CD 26. Well, that was 2 days ago so I never received a high or peak. At that point I decided that I must have already O'd this month and th monitor simply didn't pick it up. I used an IC OPK the last day I used the monitor too, just to be sure. Both methods were completely negative. Well, I didn't use any OPKs yesterday as I thought I definitely must have O'd already. I use one today as I'm getting LOADS of EWCM and low and behold and nearly positive! I'm so frustrated that I didn't test yesterday too. I don't know whether I've missed O or if I'm gearing up to O. The worst part is that this happened last month too! I stopped using OPKs after CD 22, randomly used one on CD26 and it was positive. We never DTD as we thought the stick was just being strange, however 14 days later I had AF! Can't believe I've made the same mistake twice!
