After Day Of Being in Limbo...Today 14 DPO

Im out too I have to say that the 2 WW was veryyyyy stressful for me... I spent the past 2 weeks questioning every headache, backache, twinge and cramp. I was so upset last night b/c my temperatures were dropping but then DH helped calm me down and when I saw AF today I was actually relieved because the stress of being in limbo was really messing with my head.

This was my 1st month ttc and I think I just had high hopes that it would happen right away if I did everything right. We BD 4 days in a row during my fertile period, used preseed, and even put my legs up. DH said it perfectly when he told me not to worry and that God has a plan for us and maybe November just wasnt our month.

I have been very disappointed lately and I hope I can learn more things to do to increase our chances

Im trying to keep my head up and I know a lot of girls got their AF recently and I just wanted to let out my frustration and tell everyone to stay positive and wish everyone luck for next month! This website is amazing and Im glad that I have girls to talk to that will understand what I am going through

Alright, it's Day 1...a fresh start for you!!


As a BTDT though...if you are feeling very stressed and discouraged after only a month of amping up your sex life, doing preseed, etc. etc. etc., adding MORE into the mix probably won't remedy that.

I think your DH is right...and mine says the same thing every month gone by.

Re: After Day Of Being in Limbo...Today 14 DPO

I think your DH nailed it right on the head. As someone who has been trying for a few months after miscarrying I can tell you that it is very easy to get stressed out while ttc. This month is a fresh start for you!

Re: After Day Of Being in Limbo...Today 14 DPO

I know how you feel - it $ucks to do everything "right" and then not get the end result we were looking for. But the PPs and your DH are right: new cycle, new start.

At least we can have some wine on Turkey Day!!

There are so many of us on this board that are in the same position as you. Your DH is right.

This was our 2nd month TTC and I ended up having a chemical pregnancy. It is so frustrating to know that you did everything right and that your body would not allow the egg to implant. But I was in limbo like yourself for a few days and I am just happy to know that AF is here and that I can start TTC again once she leaves.

Lots of luck to all of us this month and let's remember that this is supposed to be fun!!!

Have a Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!

for next month!

Re: After Day Of Being in Limbo...Today 14 DPO

I'm sorry and I completely understand your frustrations. I do agree with the others who said to try and have faith that when it is supposed to happen, it will. Doesn't make things easier but we have to believe and try and stay positive.

Enjoy some wine tomorrow and think positive thoughts for the new cycle. Sending you lots of good thoughts!

It's great that you are able to see the positive side! Just think, you are just another month closer to the month you WILL get your BFP. And, who knows, maybe that month will be December
