TTC - first time

Hi,

My husband and I have been actively TTC for 6 months. We have been using the Clearblue advanced digital ovulation tests and haven't been successful in conceiving yet. I am finding it really hard to stay positive when my AF comes after all the effort we have put in. I have been taking vitamins and haven't had a drink for months as well as eating healthy daily. I haven't got anyone to talk to as we wanted to keep it quiet from family until we conceive and none of my friends have children or want children so do not feel I can talk to them about it either.

It would be great to speak to someone in a similar situation and share tips on how to keep positive throughout the process. x

@PMG88 sorry to hear that you're having a ttc stress! It took me 8 months before I got a bfp (had a mmc though) so I understand the frustration you're feeling. Do you temp? I find that it helps to really pinpoint when to dtd.

@Chanel05 thank you for responding. I haven't temped, I have been relying on the Clearblue App and the tests to detect my peak days. Would you recommend temping too? Currently DTD every other day from Day 6 - 21 as per what our GP advised and then every day on the peak days. Sorry for going into too much detail, its just worth seeing if others are doing similar so I know I am on the right track :). Any further advice on would be great.
