Is it just me?

Good afternoon, ladies! This is going to be a rant.

I am currently on CD 21, 8 DPO. Tested this morning (I know it's very early) and had a BFN but anyway I just don't feel like I'm pregnant. I've TTCed since mid 2015, had MCs in Aug 2015, Nov 2016, and April this year. We already did tests and the only result was what my OB said was slightly low AMH for my age, despite still within normal. I am just at the point when it feels like it would never happen. The whole TTCing gets tiring, the disappointment, the symptom spotting, the fear when I fell pregnant due to the past MC.

Does anyone feel the same? Everyone is welcomed to rant here with me.

I sure do.

TTC number 1 since November 2014. 4 MCs, the last one at the end of April. Currently having a break whilst I wait for some surgery on my uterus to see if it helps.

I had been feeling better but this week has been tough. It is about 2 years since the first miscarriage and number 3 would have been due round about now. My best friend is 34 weeks pregnant and I'm getting anxious about coping when her baby arrives.

And yes, it feels like it is never going to happen. I think after my surgery we'll give it one more go and then think about adopting.

It sucks. Massively.

@keeponrunning85 I am sorry for your losses. This is also my TTC number 1.

I know it must be really, really hard to have your best friend pregnant when you have to deal with this. My second sister gave birth the same day as I was going for the tests for recurring miscarriages. It sucks because it seems like people were running out of sympathy after the first MC. So by the time I had my 3rd MC it seems like some people just had little to no sympathy. Which I am fine with, as long as they do not say anything mean (some of them did).

It is more difficult for us to adopt because we move from one country to another due to DH's job. We might consider IVF by the end of this year if it's still the same...

I truly wish you best of luck! :)

Good luck to you ladies. I can't dream what you're going through - been ttc #1 for less than a year and the sadness after every bfn is just getting worse and worse.
It seems so easy for everyone else. On holidays at the moment and tested yesterday (dreaming I'd get my bfp in this beautiful country, thinking what a lovely story to tell, all that) and it's just an enormous disappointment.
Wishing you get your bfps and your babies soon.
