Getting period when trying to conceive

Hello!

This is my first post here and I have no idea what I'm doing 🤦‍♀️

Anyway, my husband and I have been trying to conceive for over a year now. We're at the point where we are making appointments to discuss our fertility but covid is slowing that down.

I just wondered how others cope with that crippling feeling when you get your period and realise that you're not pregnant. My husband is really supportive and tries to brush it off and cheer me up. But I just really want someone to validate how crushing it is.

My brain tells me we can keep trying and to take it easy and all the right stuff. But I still can't help feeling the disappointment.

How have others coped with Aunt Flo turning up and kicking you in the vagina?

@BLMH it's hard when it's rubbish weather! We've been lucky and it's been cold but sunny! Not so much today though!

I'm glad to hear it! I was really hoping for a flashing smiley today but still nothing! And guessing if my ovulation is later the whole cycle will be longer! Which might be a good thing, maybe better if my cycle is longer than 25/26 days! Who knows 🤷🏻‍♀️
