Does TTC ever really stress you out?
Last night DH and I were talking. I was telling him that I feel like this isnt going to be our month. I was hystericaly crying and he just kept saying "It will happen". TTC is the one thing that stresses me out sooo much. I remember the same feelings when we were TTC the first time. I really dont know why its making me so emotional...it might be because we are on month 4 and with DS we got pg on month 3  I have also been home for 3 weeks with mono and I am going back to work on Monday which is making me anxious also
Thanks for letting me vent

Re: Does TTC ever really stress you out?
Your DH is right, it will happen for you, someday
Try not to let little things stress you out, but I know what you mean. DH and I have been trying for 15 cycles (working on #16 right now) and it gets very frustrating. (Especially when EVERY week we hear news that someone in our lives has gotten PG!)
We began testing and so far everything has come back normal. I am begininng to wonder if everyone is right and if I just stop thinking about it then "it will happen", but for me there is no way to stop thinking about it.
Good Luck and try to have fun with it this month.

Re: Does TTC ever really stress you out?
You already have a child, so you know there is no problem conceiving. My dr said that a perfectly healthy couple only has about a 20% chance of conceiving in any given month. It will happen for you.

Re: Does TTC ever really stress you out?
The only time I think about TTC is during O. Once those few days are over I return to my normal life. Of course, for those few days I'm constantly thinking about TTC. Don't stress out. I've been TTC my first baby since Augusts so you're not alone. I just keep telling myself that it will happen when it happens.

Re: Does TTC ever really stress you out?
Last night was the first time I ever really saw DH bummed about not being pregnant. He was sure it was our month and kept bringing it up all night.
We got pregnant with Jack on month three also - so now moving onto month 5 I can't help but worry if there is something wrong.
We'll just keep plugging along though - and the best thing to do is keep positive! It will happen for you - for whatever reason right now just might not be the right time. I HAVE to believe that there is a reason to everything otherwise I could just go crazy!
We're here if you need us!
Oh - and sweetie - you're not out yet!

Re: Does TTC ever really stress you out?
I know it's tough. My Dh says things like that too, but it certainly doesn't make you feel any better- if anything, it makes you feel like they just don't get it. We also got preggo on month 3 with DS and are now on month 4, so I can completely relate.

You already have a child, so you know there is no problem conceiving.
Unfortunately, this is not true. There is such a thing called "secondary infertility."
To the OP - yes, I think we ALL feel that way at some point or another! There's so much that goes into each cycle... it's really a rollercoaster of emotions! First you're WTO.. you take your OPKs, have to think about holding your urine for 4 hours, wondering when you'll get the +OPK... then you worry about when to BD... then you're in the 2ww. You wonder if you covered your bases, you wonder about every cramp, pinch, pull, & twinge that you feel. Then you think abotu POAS... there are so many ups and downs that we go through!
It's so easy to feel down and upset and depressed about it all. The hardest part is staying strong and staying positive and moving foward... pushing on through all the CRAP and remembering why we're doing all this. I'm sure you know that the destination is WELL worth whatever the journey might bring.
I'm always here on FM too if you want to talk!

Sounds like you are going through a lot of things-focus on feeling better and it will happen!
TTC is incredibly stressful!
