TTC number 3 - feels like its never going to happen

We're on cycle number 6 TTC for baby number 3 and I'm really struggling. Babies 1 and 2 were conceived first time both times. And I know how very lucky we were! But my heart feels like its breaking each month my period starts. We're 27 and 28, my periods seem regular. Tried LH tests for the first 3 months but they stressed me out. Tried BBT this month but the drop in temperature the day before my period was almost as bad as my period starting or a negative test when I'm a day or so 'late'. I don't really know the purpose of this post except I'm just so sad and its all I think about and its consuming me! Our plan since last month is just to DTD every other day.

Guess I'm just looking for someone to talk to about it! What helped you to stop thinking about it constantly?

Its normal to be wondering what the hell is happening. Im in the same boat!
ttc and not getting anywhere.
I bought me and my partner some prenatal vits.
Theyre conceive plus tablets.
its okay to dtd every other day, but is it a possibility that your trying too hard? Daft to say😅

If your dtd in hopes to conceive thats trying too hard😬

Enjoy your time with you OH, enjoy having sex, dont think about it!

For me.. putting my mind into something else takes my mind away from the conception thoughts!

Ive stuck my nose into books this month to take my mind away from the fact that when i have a period i know theres no baby in there.

I wouldnt say my mind has gotten too bad but im already on my 5th book of the month and i only started reading like 3 weeks ago!😂

Try and find a hobby that will take your mind away from it so your not constantly thinking about it.

Dtd and enjoy your partner! If your tense, hes tense, your bodys tense and its not the best frame of mind to make a baby.

Sending all my love to you both at this confusing crazy time!x

This is no help whatsoever, but I have conceived three times and each time was after a period of stress was lifted. So... try to relax?! Yeah, I know, useless advice.

My first took 9 months, second took 4 and third took 8 btw.
