I think I'm going crazy...

I genuinely think i'm losing my mind with this ttc business! Which is silly because we've only been trying for a few months and I know some of you out there have been trying for a lot lot longer...
...it's just so difficult to think about anything else isn't it?? Me and my DP spoke about it a few months ago and he said he was up for it so I stopped taking the pill...had what I think was a withdrawal bleed a few days later and then had (what I think!) was a proper period on 20th November after having unprotected sex on 19th. Just POAS and it was obvs a BFN. On Saturday night we were talking about it and my DP was so so excited at the prospect...so now I am even more obsessed and literally cant think about anything else!! I want it so bad! Dtd twice on Saturday and are going to start doing it every other day as advised by everyone on here...Im just nervous that things wont happen as quickly as we'd like and that I wont be able to concentrate on other things until it happens! Sorry for the big long post...I just need a little rant! I don't want to POAS every week and get really disheartened and upset but I can foresee that that's EXACTLY what I'll probably do!! any hints/tips/advice?????? xxxx

i am exactly the same! had my coil out 6 days ago and already imagining pregnancy symptoms daily. lol. I think its part of the job so just go with it - you will turn crazy and be peeing on sticks almost every day - i have done an ovulation stick every day since my coild was removed as i didnt have periods so i have no idea where i am in my cycle.

Im now excited at the thought of a BFP for Christmas, When are you next due AF?

Haha! Im so glad i'm not the only one! haha! Yesterday I had a funny pinching pain in my left side and was like "This is it!! It's implanting!!" and my DP was just looking at me like I was crazy! I haven't done any ovulation sticks yet....do you think I should??

I think my next AF is due around the 20th if last month's was anything to go by...although because I haven't been off the pill for that long I haven't really settled into a proper cycle yet. How often are u going to POAS? We dtd twice on Saturday so I'm probably going to start testing with avengeance in a fortnight!!! Eeeeek! fingers crossed for us both!!!! xx

well i ordered 20 cheapo ovulation and pregnancy sticks on amazon - the pregnancy ones were £2.63 for 20 and te ovulation ones were around £4. ive done an ovulation test every day since the coil came out and each one was negative. Sad
The annoying this is that i didnt have af's with my coil for 2 and ahalf years so i literally have no clue where i am in my cycle which is so frustrating.
If you buy the cheapo tests you will be able to test whenever you want and not worry so much about wasting money thats why i got them. if/when i show up positive with the pregnancy ones il go buy an expensive one to double triple check.

I've got no idea about my cycle either tbh, am just dtd and hoping for the best! I might order some ovulation and pregnancy tests tho because that's real cheap!! I bought one from Superdrug this morning (wishful thinking and because I had a dizzy spell this morning!!!) and it was £3...I don't wanna be buying one a day at that price!
I've got a pile of work I should be doing but have literally sat at my computer for the last 2 hours, googling the best ways to conceive and reading through the threads on here! Does this get any easier????
