That's it really. I feel like I have no control over my body. I'm doing OPKs that say I'm ovulating but then I start bleeding 3 DPO.

Bollocks to it all. Feeling very down today.

Oh madonna damn it Sad Sad How long was your cycle? Wonder if you ovulated earlier than you thought...sometimes OPK's can be inaccurate can't they? It's just rubbish sometimes isn't it. Have some Wine tonight and I really hope you get there next cycle x

Thanks. Just throwing myself a bit of a pathetic pity party.

My cycles have been 25 days like clockwork since coming off the pill. But this cycle was only 19 days. Or 15 if you count the spotting.

I'm really scared I've got something wrong with me.

The only time I've ever been pregnant before I miscarried at 7 weeks. I'm finding this whole TTC thing incredibly stressful tbh. I don't trust my body at all. I feel like it can't 'do' pregnancy.

Not a fantastic attitude I admit!

I totally understand. I've gone through stages of being SO angry with my body for being messed up, to feeling really sorry for myself. Sorry about your mc, although I guess the only thing to say about that positively is it shows you CAN get pregnant. I'm terrified of mc even though my stupid body barely ovulates so never been near an mc, but I am anxious as I had the LLETZ treatment done years ago on my cervix, and that and PCOS increases the risk of mc.

However people get there despite all sorts of issues, I keep seeing people on here and another forum I'm on, who got there in the end, sometimes thanks to medical help and sometimes just time. Sounds like something went wrong this cycle but your usual cycles like clockwork are good I think - shows your body is working.

I'll keep everything crossed bar legs for you, it will happen! I'm saying all this to you but when people try and cheer me up, I feel like screaming "how do you know!!" I guess no one can cheer us up like a BFP can - and will x
