This whole TTCing process...

is just not what I imagined it to be.

I never expected that I would be so emotionally effected. I never thought that a smiley on an OPK or a lack there of could effect my entire day. I guess I always thought that it would be all fun and excitement...and not this emotional rollercoaster.

I am at CD 23 with no in sight and
I am sooo frustrated, was practically in tears this morning, and I know I am only beginning this journey.

Sorry to be a downer. I think I am just having a rough morning. Thanks for letting me vent.

for everyone.

I just sent you an FM, but here are more...

You're not a downer; it's all very emotional & overwhelming. Believe me, there are days when I just want to stay in bed & cry my eyes out because I thought TTC was going to be so easy.

Just keep thinking positive thoughts & your prayers will be answered.

Re: This whole TTCing process...

I know what you mean. Last month was our first month of TTC and it is all I can think about.

Re: This whole TTCing process...

Tell me about it. 17 months later, this is definitely not what I expected it to be.

Hang in there.

Re: This whole TTCing process...

I know what you mean. I said the exact same thing about a week after we officially started TTC. I thought it would be exciting & fun with a little frustration, but I didn't expect it to be quite as frustrating & emotionally draining as it was.

Re: This whole TTCing process...

I know it's hard. I think about it all the time as well, but I am trying REALLY hard to not let it take over my life, otherwise the road ahead I am sure will feel that much longer.

I know it's so much easier said than done-- but just try to stay positive and try to make this a PART of your life-- and not let it totally involve you. You will just put too much pressure on yourself, your DH and your life in general. I am around to chat if you ever want to!

Re: This whole TTCing process...

I want to thank everyone for being so supportive. It is so helpful to have nice, understanding people to share with!

Now if this day would just come to an end, lol

Re: This whole TTCing process...

Just try to relax and enjoy this process even though it can be emoitionally draining, believe me i know!! When it is meant to be it will be. Just stay positive and say your prayers and you will get what you want
