Anyone else as obsessive over TTC? :(

[Anon7501]

Hey all,

Just having a read through as i cant sleep. 2 months tomorrow i had a mc and have been desperatly trying ever since! Torturing myself every single day with the hope that i could be pregnant again. I have pcos and have never taken a period so my only way to know is to test (which iv got obsessive over) in my head i dont want to but i cant seem to help myself!!

There is literaly no worse feeling than realising your test is negative! (Esp when every where you look there is baby bumps, babies or pregnancy anouncements)

Its getting to the point now that its all i think about and im worried that the stress of it is going to make it harder for me to get pregnant again. Really cant win 💁🏼

Hey @Anon7501. I'm sorry to hear about your miscarriage x

Have you seen the doctor about your pcos?

Ttc is really hard, we've been trying since December and I got to the point where it took over and I thought about it all the time. Made the decision to stop actively trying and that helped lots. I'm also on the thread staying sane during Ttc and there's a few of us on there, that's helped a lot. Come and find us

@VenusStar thank you!!

Its so hard, i am really going to try and not think about it as much, im only affecting myself by letting it consume me!

Yes i have seen the doc and gyne doc .. before i got pg in march i was on the 6 month count down before going back to try clomid .. i am now back on that count down although this time i dont think they will be willing to give me it as i got pg on my own last time! I just dont understand how they think that it is ok that i have never taken a period :S surely its something the body needs to do???

@Anon7501 yup im obsessed completely and fed up completely ttc for nearly 3yrs now! We re currently goin through tests and investigations arguing a bit through it all aswell is there no end to it?!

@thisisouryrfx18 its awful isnt it. Its all i can think about at the minute!! 3 years is a long time i couldnt imagine, it must be torture! I know i need to loose about a stone as i feel that helped me get preg the first time but i am literaly comfort eating! Horrible cycle!!

@Anon7501 im the exact same hun i cant stop eating i feel like crap because of it then i eat more..how long have u been ttc for?

@thisisouryearfx18 its such a horrible cycle!!
I came of pill in dec to get a hormone profile done and i ended up pregnant in march without trying (after loosing one stone) i had a mc at 9 weeks and i have been trying again from june 5th .. i know its only one month and not long but it feels like a lifetime since i was preg! I also dont have periods so i dont know when i ovulate so i have to bd every 2 days to try catch on xx

@Anon7501 do u temp and use opks? X

@thisisouryrfx18 i was using opks at the start but with pcos they arnt accurate so i started using ovusense to chart my temps.. turns out i am 3 dpo 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 Iv also started taking myo insitol so im feeling hopeful this month. I recommend ovusense if you dont already use it xx

@Anon7501 is that the applicator u put in at night? Yh i was thinking the opks might not work for u..but dtd every 2nd day is hard work ive done it in the past. Fx now the temping has pin pointed ur ovulation it will make life easier for u. Sorry to hear about ur MC hun thats tough ❤ the only thing i will say is ive heard ppl on here saying ur more fertile the cycle after, i mean that in the kindest possible way x

@thisisouryrfx18
Yea thats the one, so glad i bought it as without it i wouldnt have known and probs gave up a bit by now! At least now i know iv ovulated i can give the bd dancing a break for a while lol!
Thank you!!
I know i heard that too, so fingers crossed something happens this month 🤞🏼 xx

I'm ttc with irregular cycles.

It sucks :( tested about a week ago and partners been visiting family for a few weeks due to his mum being badly ill, bd'd on 28th june so not sure what my chances are.

baby dust to everyone, hope you all get your bfp

xx

@Anon7501 how much did u pay for it if u dnt mind me asking? Ive not been temping at all this cycle im up at 4am for wk so i need to wake up that early on my days off aswell to get an accurate reading and im just too tired this mnth! I need one lol but i do usually ovulate around the same time so im thinking al just stick to opks this mnth. Thanks @cmdoran1991

@cmdoran1991 fingers crossed for you, sometimes it only takes one go 🤞🏼🤞🏼

@thisisouryrfx18 it was £60 and i got 25% off, so £45 which is good! U get one month free subrcription to the app then its £20 after that! When are u due to ovulate?

I found using an ovulation microscope good, it's the size of a lipstick, put your spit on it and let dry then check out under mini microscope - looks like fern leaves when pre ovulation
Also agnus castus helped for me for rubbish progesterone - got drops from AVogel and added to water - stopped when pregnant bfp

Sorry about mc - had plenty too and 4.5 years of Ttc but got my two babies now (6&9 so not babies lol!) so good luck on your journey

@flumpybear iv heard a few talking about angus cactus .. although my hormones are aparently fine lol! Im now taking my ova tabs they have myo insitol, chromium and folate in them!

Thank you ☺️ Xx

@Anon7501 yh thats cheaper than i fot hmmm..i dnt ovulate for another fortnight, my cyvles are normally about 6wks long
