Just looking for some solidarity. Currently about 7dpo and feeling a bit down about my odds of conceiving for no reason other than how long it’s taking this time. This is cycle 9 of TTC baby 3, although I had a chemical pregnancy the second month of TTC. Baby 1 and 2 were conceived within 3 months of TTC each time, so the waiting is eating away at me. I’ve had some health problems, which meant that I probably wasn’t even fertile for 4-5 of the cycles we’ve been trying, but emotionally it feels like the full 9 cycles as I get my hopes up each time!
Ovulation was quite painful this cycle, which has previously been a good indicator that I’m very fertile (babies 1 and 2 were conceived with very painful ovulation). I know it’s too early to have pregnancy symptoms, but I can’t help but symptom spot. I’ve been extra bloated since ovulation and keep getting spots on my chin (and even two on my neck). Otherwise no indication one way or another.
If anyone else is around 7dpo and looking for some support, please feel free to join.
