Fed up: TTC for a year - what am I doing wrong?

Me and DH are in our early 30s. DHs sperm analysis came back normal.
My ultrasound was clear. My blood results and smear test results are due early next week.

I don't drink. Have been using CBFM for 8 months which always charts highs and peaks. Have also been using conceive plus and taking pregnacare vitamins.

Despite this AF has just arrived and symptomless at that. It's been a year now and still no luck. What am I doing wrong? I am starting to feel as if it's never going to happen for us. Fed up.

Thanks don't. I'm hanging in there. The BFPs make me believe though so I love the buses! And my mum is really amazing (despite 'relax' advice).

I'm positive because that's who I am but I am getting really scared ...

On nov 2nd I will be embarrassed by this post as I'll be pg and - as ever - mum will be right that I have nohing to worry about....

Good to talk to fellow long termers .... Really good! :-)

Oh and btw don't I have this image of a scientific journal headed 'relaxing when ttc - b*llocks!' Has me chuckling away! I think all journals should be as up front !

Phahaha m33r and don't, you guys are cracking me up.

m33r that's the exact same rant I had with my SIL who conceived both hers accidentally - and so doesn't even know her cycle - when she told me to just relax and that I'm trying to hard. I have tried a couple of months without tracking OPKs but after 12 months I know my body and EWCM, ovulation twinges etc so know when I am fertile.

I am just going to log on to Amazon to try and find a memory eraser so I can 'unknow' too!

I tried the buses too but as I only log onto this forum via my phone, it take a while to scroll down to the newest post as the thread is usually a couple of hundred posts strong. Lame excuse I know - maybe I just need to relax Wink

It'll be us soon shoegal. I always say this on the buses but since 90% of people conceive in 12 months and 95% in the second year, if you were a betting man, the 11monthers would statistically be your odds on favourite and there is a reason that 'the house always wins'.

This is my positive thought backed by solid science!
