Im finding it so frustrating getting my af every month despite our best efforts i havent been ttc for long (this will be my 3rd month) but its so horrible, im not due af til next thurs (19th) but i know the closer i get the more stressed and low im getting, im trying really hard not to get obsessed with it all but its so so hard not too! Yesterday i was convinced it had worked this month, i felt really positive, but today i just feel like im kidding myself and it'll never happen - i think i need to give myself a kick up the butt and stop feeling sorry for myself. Whats so annoying is that i have twice gotten pregnant when on the pill and not even trying, now im trying its not happening the irony pfff

, I know exactly how you feel, I keep telling myself I shall not think about it, who am I kidding, I think about this more than anything and by thinking I shall not think about it I am in essence thinking about it. People tell me to get a hobby (this is my hobby .
I will keep my fingers crossed for you, I would be a hypercrit if I tried to advice you on taking your mind off it so I can't do that sorry.

This is just to tell you it is normal and you are not the only one going through it. I spent most of my teenage years counting the days till my AF, now bloomin thing won't go away

It's something you just can't switch off can you, you can't help thinking about it all the time. I found it easier to do things that meant I felt I was helping apart from the obvious having sex and then waiting. It made me feel as if i was doing something in the meantime and felt i was making progress by learning about my body along the way. It might help you too?
Over a few months I got my bloods done, started taking b6 & EPO, opk's, and was just about to start temping & Clearblue fertility when i got my BFP. I realised there was no way i could "take my mind off it" so i just got stuck in. Worth a try?

Good luck to both of you, i'm sure it'll just be a matter of time x

Preseed - got BFP after doing this, B6 (100mg) and EPO (1000mg) and acupuncture - all in one month! Acupuncture is ace - if you get a fertility expert it feels as if someone is on the journey with you, good for the mind. Good luck xx
