Maybe I just need encouragement

Hi girls

So I think I just need to hear "IT WILL HAPPEN"... I cant say Im getting frustrated, but I think Im more sad than anything else. We put off having LO's for so long because we wanted to have a good time together as Hubby and wife. Now it's like one day I woke up and EVERYONE around me has a child.. and in some cases are on to their 2nd and 3rd. I dont regret waiting because I've learned so much about myself and DH in these past 4 years but I really just want to be a mom!! I want DH to be a dad!!

As most of you know, we had a chemical in April after only 2 mos of trying. We chilled out for a few mos and in July started trying again and nothing... I went to the Dr on Friday to ease my mind and he drew some blood.. I have to go back in 10 days to draw more blood. I think he wants to see if Im ovulating at all since the checmical.

Im just sad.. the unknown is so scary to me and Im afraid of all the what ifs... what if I cant? What if he cant? what if it takes too long and then we decide its too late. Im 28 and he's 32 so I know there's time.... uughhh.. just sad Chat Icon

Re: Maybe I just need encouragement

Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon I was just reading in What to Expect When You're Expecting, that something like 70% of all conceptions end as chemicals, and most people never know it. When you do know it is still heart breakingly sad, and should be mourned, but it shouldn't have an affect on your ovulation and does not mean anything about your fertility. In fact, it says the fact that you did conceive means that it will happen again. It will happen, all this waiting sucks!!!! I agree, but it will happen.Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Maybe I just need encouragement

I'm sure it will happen. It's good to know that you did get pregnant once before so you can get pregnant again.
Just think positive and try to stay stress free. Chat Icon

Re: Maybe I just need encouragement

I hope you will feel better when you get the results from the doctor and he confirms that you are ovulating.

It will happen!!!!

I have been trying since around the same time as you and had a MC last winter so we are in the same boat. TTC is so hard it is not even funny!! I hope you feel better soon and good luck this month!!!!!!!

Hoping I can give you a little encouragement in your journey because I know how much I needed it when I was in your shoes.

DH and I waited 2 years before TTC, like you we wanted to enjoy our time together before having kids and travel. All around us, ALL of our friends had kids.

We TTC'ed for 15 months. During that time, we had 2 chemicals and were starting to lose hope. Chat Icon The year mark was really tough. Then, I decided to change my attitude, and think more positively. After a weeklong vacation with all of our friends and their LO's, we had to try again. 2 weeks later, we got our BFP. I think putting less stress on myself helped. I am currently 10 and a half weeks pregnant and everything is going great.

You have to believe that it will happen when the time is right. Whenever I was in a funk, I listened to "Haven't Met You Yet" and always felt better. Good luck!

Thanks for sharing that, it's really good to know.

I have read also that the only good thing about having a chemical is it shows that you can get pregnant so I am sure you it will happen. I think it's good you are seeing the doctor. I wouldn't worry now. Hopefully all of your tests will come back normal.
