Very upset :-(

[bubblegumgirl]

Hi all,

On a bit of a downer today. Have been TTC since October without luck. Had all the tests and this month I was SO sure. Then got my period this morning.

I just feel so upset, although I know it's stupid and irrational. Sorry to moan, just needed an outlet (am at work and can't cry).

Feeling your pain BGG... been trying for 2years had all the symptoms then a BFN.
I am also at my desk holding it together...just...no we are not stupid or irrational... just hopfull

you are not alone xx

It's not irrational to feel disappointed. Try not to stress. I had friends that couldn't conceive so after 2 years went down the ivf route. Decided to have a major blowout of eating and drinking whatever the hell they liked before they got all sensible in preparation for the ivf and conceived that weekend!

I think it just takes different amounts of time for different people. The more I understand about human biology, the surprised I am that anyone falls pregnant!

That should be more surprised

Hiya, I had one of these the month before last. I was so upset when my period came, a colleague found me crying in the loos and I had to pretend I wasn't feeling well I know how you feel, I have been trying around the same amount of time as you. Just remember that it's not all that long to be trying in the scheme of things and next month is another go. Plus, you can safely have a glass of tonight

So sorry you got your period. It's not irrational to be upset, and it's definitely not stupid. Sometimes, it can just get on top of you.

I agree with Tremolo - have a glass of wine tonight, and be gentle on yourself over the weekend.

Hi op. We all understand how you feel. It's definitely not stupid. Like others have said, be gentle on yourself, drink wine and rest. ((hugs))

Same situation her, trying for what feels like ages. Minor breakdown a week ago when Af came. A week later though, feeling much more positive and am now enjoying SWI again. I think the worst part is that DH, though sympathetic, just doesn't get how hard it is to pick yourself up again after you get AF and doesn't get the whole symptom spotting thing either. Thank God for MN!
You will feel better soon, promise.

Big hugs BGG. Got my AF on Thursday last week - gutted!

Good luck for your new cycle xx

Sorry to sound flippant or insensitive ..i dont mean to ... but have to tried ovulation kits ? I used these to get pregnant and just had sex when it said to every day ( sometimes more than once ) for a few days and got pregnant that month. Also a friend who tried for ages ( years ) swears she got pregnant when her dh shook her legs after sex . I also laid with a pillow under my cushion for ten minutes straight after . Worth a try x

Hi, just wanted to say that what you are feeling is definatly not irrational, you are bound to be upset so don't beat yourself up about it! I noticed someon else has mentioned checking your ovulation dates, forgive me if that is what you have done but I know when I was trying I thought I had my days right but didn't and I was using donor sperm so my window had to be exact. I read a forum post o Pride Angel from a natural fertility expert, may be worth reading, how to tell when you are fertile forum.prideangel.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=537 hope this helps! In the meantime, hugs, take care xx
