Feel bad constantly moaning to my rl friend so i'm here for a rant....

Feel free to completely ignore this post but i just really need to vent.
Been ttc since xmas & just came on AGAIN today & i'm miserable :(
I have only told one rl friend that we are ttc so i feel like she must be so bored of listening to me moan. She is the best & so understanding but i'm sick of listening to me so she really must be!!
I didn't expect to fall preg straight away but now i'm starting to think that I never will. We did everything this month taking a million vitamins, eating everything you should and nothing you shouldn't, used opks & dtd on all the right days and still nothing. I'm so sick of this I just feel like giving up. I've just smoked for the first time in about a year (gave up to help ttc lot of good that did me) & as soon as I go home I'm opening the wine, sod it I'm not preg so why not.
Sorry again for the rant I just needed to get it off my chest

I read your post and I feel for you. That's all I can think of to say. I hope it happens for you soon.

You will have heard this a lot already, so sorry, but the month we thought 'sod it, we're giving up' we conceived DD. DH says her middle name should have been Beaujolais (quite pretty, no? )

I do feel for you, it feels like it will never end.

It's rubbish, isn't it? We tried for 15 months before I fell with ds and after a while it was all I could think about! Most people fall pregnant within 12 months of trying, so chances are you'll get your bfp soon. In the meantime, have a !

Thanx burnthis i'm not too bad throughout the month but when the end of the month comes & af arrives its all i can think about. I know the stats say it should happen so i'm just going to have to wait & hope!

Good thinking woodw i will also get thinking of something nice although, i think if it takes much longer earmuffs to block me out would be the best prezzie i could get her!!!!

And you lots of baby dust,

very stressful but hopefully it will all be worth it in the end ;)

Daisychain44 · 05/09/2013 18:37

Hi pxmx I'm in exactly the same position - since Xmas. I also had a mini meltdown at the end of aug when AF came - couldn't believe we were heading for Autumn ( next stop Xmas mentally) and still nothing....

It's passed now though and now I feel up for another month - roller coaster really is the word! I know it helps me to know there are others out there finding the same thing ( that sounds horrible but it's hard when friends seem to do it so easily) so hopefully that helps you a little bit?

Shoegal30 · 06/09/2013 07:25

Snap pxmx. I am in the same position as you and Daisy.
We have been trying since November and like you said I don't think about it all month except for when AF comes and it's so disheartening. That coupled with the fact that everybody in my social circle keeps announcing pregnancies, especially 'accidental' ones.

As mentioned previously, it's good to know others are in the same position. Hopefully this is our month xx

Hi daisy & shoe it really helps knowing it's not just me!!
I'm feeling better today, yesterday i just couldn't stop thinking that it will be xmas soon & we will have spent a whole year trying but i still wont be preg :(
I'm glad that you've been trying the same length of time as us it makes it seems more normal somehow?? I'm also surrounded with people falling preg two 'accidentals' one of them from a one night stand!!!!!I find it very hard to smile and congratulate when inside i'm screaming why not me??!!!!! Fingers x it will be a lucky month for us all

Hi pxmx, if it helps, just to say that I'm also in a v similar position to you and some of the other posters - been trying since November and it hasn't happened yet. I've had a mini meltdown the last couple of times my period has arrived. It helps to know that there's other people out there, as it does sometimes seem like everyone I know is pregnant after a few months trying. Good luck all. I hope it happens for you soon x
