Struggling with ttc.

[wantingformytime]

I'm starting to give up hope, every month is negative, 18 months now everyone else is pregnant even on the tv babies everywhere.

I use to imagine the amazing feeling that you would have when you find out, but I can only imagine now a life without a baby. Deep down I feel something is wrong, I dont ovulate according to multiple blood tests and doctor wont investigate further until hubby's sperm test is done, that end on nov.

I've done ovulation urine sticks these have been positive every month, ap tracking regular exercise non smoker, and not drank for over 2 years now and nothing. It's like some people just look at their hubby and get pregnant.

I've become bitter towards friends and family that have had unplanned pregnancies or pregnant after 2,3 cycles.

Tell us your struggles so I dont feel like the only one, and your success so i can be hopeful again

Sorry to hear you are having problems... if they know you don’t ovulate then hopefully as soon as sperm results are back you will get referred on speedily!
We had ivf after over two years ttc. I had low amh so not many eggs left and twisty/slow tubes. Eight eggs collected and two of those eggs are now two and I can hear clamouring to watch the highway rat!
Really hope
You get some progress soon xx

It’s a frustrating journey hun, had the same. The process seemed so drawn out with siren tests etc. And exactly like you say all my friends seemed to just fall pregnant. Have you tried anything like pressed ?

I'm so sorry you're going through this. It really is the most miserable thing. We took 4 years Ttc to get our first bfp from iui. Unfortunately that one wasn't successful but 6 months later we had a surprise natural bfp so we're cautiously hopeful about this one. It can happen even after years but I hope you get there quicker. Good luck xx

It is miserable. I know.

Could you for for a private sperm test to speed things along? It’s easy to arrange at a private clinic and costs around £100. I would be surprised if you didn’t have the results 10 days from now. November seems a long time to wait.

If you’re not ovulating they can give you Clomid (tablets) or ovulation induction (injections) to try and make you ovulate. So please don’t give up hope.

They don't like to do anything until 2 years unless you're over 35 or have a history. Though to be fair they did react when I told them my mother started the menopause at 35 and gave me some additional/early tests.

I got pregnant naturally in the end, before 2 years, but I feel your pain and want to offer a virtual hug because there's nothing that can help with that pain eating away inside you. Even now women talking about their decision to have a baby makes me clench up in pain because they just take it for granted they have that choice/everything will work (I didn't even before we started trying... for various reasons).

I’m so sad you’re going through this.
I have a fibroid, the doctors ran blood tests to check my fertility levels etc and I never had any results from it, my partner is booked in for a semen analysis next month, we’ve been TTC for 10 months.
I was using OPKS, and severely stressing over falling pregnant.
This month we took a step back, booked our wedding, went on a weekend away and yesterday I found out I am 5 weeks pregnant! It will honestly happen when you least expect it!❤️

Nicole this is amazing news, very happy for you. This is my last bloods this month for ovulation and my hubby has an appt for sperm test in November. Still waiting for that BFP!
