BFN cycle 10. Feeling so down. Any advice?

[ArtfulShaker]

Myself (F33) and DH (M33) are TTC #3. First 2 pregnancies I got pregnant the first month so I was incredibly lucky.
Youngest is 18m and have been trying now with 10 months with no luck. I haven't changed my diet or anything significant so I'm not sure at this point what to do.
The thoughts of another marathon sex week is killing me. AF arrived today so I'm feeling pretty low. Any advice would be appreciated 🙏

Stop trying. It sounds harsh and I really dont mean to but like you said "you got pregnant straight away " the last two times. Its so easy to get fixated on ovulation, optmum times, dates etc but please dont try so hard. I speak from experience and also know far too many couples who tried hard to conceive without success who then tried IVF and in the end accepted they were not going to be parents. When the stress was gone the conceived. Dont be hard on yourself love, it will happen if you relax.

Just as @bigknickersbigknockerssaid - stop trying. Give up almost..
Easier said than done…
we’ve been trying for dc #2 for at least 10 months and I really gave up last month, we only had sex twice, my OPKs didn’t show that I ovulated, I just gave up. Guess what happened this month?
the only thing we started doing (maybe this was the second cycle) was using the pre-seed. Not sure if that had anything to do with it…
good luck!

I totally understand you. It took us 18 months to conceived child number two, we did discover via tests my OH had 3 separate problems with his swimmers, which contributed greatly to our struggle TTC.

And when we were trying, the one bit of advice I HATED was “just stop trying”. It would make my skin crawl because duhhh!

However, the month we didn’t bother trying as when I was due to ovulate he was away on a business trip, we fell pregnant. I didn’t track ovulation, I just put it down as a dud month when I saw my predicated ovulation dates on my apps, low and behold we are now in our second trimester from that month.

It’s so easier said than done, I know myself, you can try but mentally it never leaves your mind, but it did work for us.
