Trying To Conceive #1+ Vent Thread

[Nazz4]

We are 23! Our moment was when I accidentally got pregnant last year and had a MC. Long story, but ever since we have wanted another shot, hasn't happened yet though. On top of that, male factor infertility runs in his family, but with the other men in his family it really didn't start affecting them until their 30's, so we're trying to get all the babies out before it's too late lol.

Wow good story! How long have you guys been trying for now??

 

[Nazz4]

Well we started NTNP first day of September, then started TTC November. So this is our third cycle actively trying. I'm in the TWW currently... which is turning into the three week wait because I keep getting BFN's. I think I'm calling my doc tomorrow though because my ovary has been hurting the past few days and I'm starting to think there is no baby in there at all, but something bad and painful. I know I'm pessimistic, but I'd rather have the doc check me out before I have to go to the ER one night and have open ovary surgery!

 

[sandybum]

Haha open overy surgery! Oh cool, well I'll have my fingers crossed for you!! I've just finished my withdrawl bleed... So as of tonight we will be at it again.. I know I prob have another week anda half before ovulation, but I figure it can't hurt toget to it just incase my cycles all over the place you know because I stopped my pill 6 days into a new pack after skipping sugar pills on the last.. Weird though.. Here's a question.. Could I if been ovulating the same time as my w.d bleed? The second day of it I seemed to have a mix between blood and ewcm...cant find an answer to this anywhere? Or maybe it seemed different because I'm off the pill.. So confusing I tell ya!

 

[Nazz4]

My first period off the pill was like that too.

Hello Everyone,
I've been TTC for around a year and a half and it all just so....depressing. At first we were really lazy about it, only having sex when we felt like it, not tracking anything, and just hoping. I knew that since we were not really paying attention there was little chance that it would actually happen. Now we are really taking it seriously and it's just not working. I feel like everyone around me is getting pregnant. And most of them are not even trying. I try not to get upset, but it's just so hard. So hard, in fact, that when my best friend became pregnant she was afraid to tell me. Does anyone else take these things as hard as I do? I feel...crazy. Emotionally crazy.

I'm sorry, I know that this post is rambling. Please forgive me.

Hey hun, your not alone. It took us 2+ years to fall pregnant with our first and now we've decided to ttc again it's already taking its tole! My sil and best friend have just announced there pregnant and it crushes. So I do know how your feeling! Just thought I'd let u know Thayer it's normal to feel so upset. It's not fare.

 

[sandybum]

Aw guys I really hope we all get our Bfp's soon. We have only just started trying a month ago.. But already it has become an obsession of mine.. The amount of reading I do on the subject is ridiculous!! At the mo I'm on cd 13 and waiting waiting on some sign that I'm ovulating, but to be safe I'll be giving my man extra special attention for the next week...poor guy!!

Hi everyone. I'm new here, but this thread seems very suited for me. It's our 6th cycle of TTC and 6DPO. And I know that's not a long time, but I am not a patient person. More like obsessive one. My DH is optimistic and keeps saying "it's alright" but he is not obsessed like I am. I haven't even told him how many HPTs I've already used even though I know I should wait for missing AF before doing them. I'm sort of happy we didn't conceive in the beginning, because on the 4th cycle I had urgent and completely unexpected operation and had to get general anesthesia. That would have been awful for a baby. But still the fact is it's cycle 6 and I'm measuring BBT and we get BD at the right times but nothing is happening. I'm really getting worried there's something wrong with me and all "it's gonna be alright"s don't help me anymore. I'm just so frustrated. We haven't told anyone we are TTC, even though my DH wanted to. At the beginning I was still rational and thought it could take time so I didn't want anyone bothering us with questions on the progress. But now I just want to share the feelings with someone other than my optimistic DH. So thank you for listening to my rant.

And here we go. My husband and I are now in year 3 of ttc, it has been such a long and frustrating journey so far. We took so many tests to see what was going on and were assigned to a fertility clinic in a neighbouring city. We finally got to the point where we were about to start IUI when my husband was offered an opportunity up north that we couldn't refuse. The opportunity is great but there's no fertility clinic here and the closest one is a 20 hour drive away. Of course to make me feel better, no word of a lie, 7 of my friends are pregnant or have just had a baby (3 girls, 2 boys and 2 unknown). I really feel like ripping my hair out. I keep hearing the same things: "your time will come" and "don't stress so much about it and it will happen".

My best friend was also terrified to tell me because she knew it would hurt. *smiles* Like I told her, it's not that I'm not happy for them...I just want to be in that place too. You aren't alone in your feelings. This can be a ridiculously emotionally stressful time. I have cried for hours after seeing a video of my nephew that my sister-in-law has posted on FB. It's just so hard.

I was going to go get a blood test done to see if i could be pg but I just feel like whats the point? I have never been pg in my life and never had a pg scare. It has always been in my head, pms symptoms and me self diagnosing and getting all anxious and worked up. I want to believe that this time could be it since he actually ejaculated in me and im not on any form of birth control and I did not take a plan B pill the next day or anything. But it is when I get my hopes up that it never happens and I end up so devastated. Lord knows I need this baby, it would really save my life. My life is such a mess, i'm so lonely and battling depression/anxiety from loss of my best friend 2 yrs ago. A baby would be healing for me.

Really hoping it happens for you soon Ebana!

My husband and I have been trying to conceive. I was Pregnant in Dec but I lost baby Dec 21. I had a cycle started Jan 27. I thought My next cycle was coming a lil early Feb 22, but it was just some barely there spotting lasted less than a day. I had very light spotting again Feb 28, nothing Mar 1, spotting Mar 2-3, and on the 4th -Today so far normal flow. I am trying to figure out when I might ovulate but I don't know from which day to go by. Opinions/Thoughts please?
