Re: Can we just discuss how irrational I am?

I am also TTC #2 and obsessing like crazy. What I try to remind myself each morning when I walk into DS's room to get him out of bed is that I am so grateful for the one that I have. This usually makes me feel a little better. When I dwell on TTC is when I drive myself crazy so I try most of the day not to think about it. But it creeps into my thoughts....you are not alone! Good luck this month- you are NOT out! But if it doesn't happen now there's always next month!

Re: Can we just discuss how irrational I am?

i totally understand where your coming from, i've taken several IC's and all BFN i'm 11dpo or 12dpo not sure since i usually have a 29-30 day cycle. I O'd late too so i could be even 10dpo. i hate waiting i obess too, although i have one EPT left and i'm afraid to pee on it. So i'm waiting a week to do so. it's been 30 days. so after sat i'll be a day late since i've been 1 day late before. so sat would be 2 days late. i'm WISHING!!!! :) praying!!! I hope you get a BFP!!! your not out till she comes!!! :) there's hope i am greatful for my son as well, trying to make him a sibling hasn't been easy for the past 11mths. he's 8 yrs old so there's going to be an age gap, but i don't care, i'm just greatful that i ovulate and can get pregnant b/c i had my son :) 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: Can we just discuss how irrational I am?

i was in the EXACT same boat, 5-6 months ago. We got pregnant month #1 with my son. Going into TTC for #2, I kept telling myself that more than likely, it wouldnt happen as quickly but I think deep down inside, I kind of expected it to Chat Icon

it took 5 or 6 months but we are here! don't stress about it, it WILL happen.

Honestly, I think this month was different for us because I finally realized that stressing and agonizing was not going to do anything - it was going to hurt us if anything. So, I went with the flow. I knew when I would O and just BD the two nights before. NO pressure of every night or every other night.

It worked!

lots of luck!!!Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

ETA - wanted to add - I had all the same symptoms that I have had every other month TTC. The only difference, I honestly swore I was getting AF at about 7DPO which I knew was just WAY too early. Then at 10DPO, I felt like I was hit by a truck. Otherwise, all the same symptoms or LESS than months I was not pregnant.

I could not agree with this more. Thats exactly what I am trying to keep in prospective. I went from one and done to obsessing over getting pregnant with the 2nd one. Something about TTC just brings out the crazy Chat Icon

Thanks ladies, glad to know it's not only me. For what it's worth I got AF today and am ok with it. I am blessed to have a healthy DD and not getting pregnant right away is not the end of the world for me. On to next month!
