Am I going mad??

Question

I have been trying to get pregnant for 2 years and still no luck, all I ever think about is being pregnant and having children even while im working it is all I can think about and then when I come home I look up on websites about conceiving!! Am I going completely mad or are there other people that feel the same?

Answer 1

You are not going mad, you are just passionate about something inside you that you want to give to another human being. Concentrate on loving your man, the rest will come naturally. Bless you.

Answer 2

Two years is not such a long time.

No you are not going crazy but admit to think about conceiving/birthing 'all the time'. That in itself is a big NO! While you only seem to concentrate on your wishes to become pregnant, you provoke a stress reaction that can well deny you the joys of pregnancy because you produce too much adrenaline (As a result of your thoughts).

I can only suggest to you what any other professionals would ... Have a life! Do not live by tests, best periods to have sex, instead relax! Make time for yourself as a person, your husband/partner who must also feel under great pressure as well.

Do things together, go for walks, enjoy romantic meals, make your life together your focus. Of course you'll want to keep up with your ovulation kits, have sex at the best time but make it feel different. Relax and tell your husband/partner to relax as well. If you both learn to put conception back where it should be, somehting you both want but not the alpha and omega of your life as a couple, then you'll find you might be more successful.

Many couples give up on their efforts to try and conceive, believing it will never happen. once they do !!! They usually make babies, simply because they are relax!

You're not going mad. There are many women out there that feel the same way as you. It is a very frustrating feeling to not be able to get pregnant when you are trying. Have you seen a fertility specialist yet? Many insurance plans now cover the cost. Best of luck to you.

Answer 4

I do understand the feeling although in my case we are not even trying yet (if only!!!). My work and study are suffering because I cannot concentrate on things that are not related to children. It is such an overwhelming feeling that sometimes I feel like I am going to explode or something. Most of the time I am reduced to a sobbing mess. It is especially frustrating when you see women and girls around you getting pregnant despite birth control. It is best to not think about fate or destiny at times like that.

Answer 5

well there are ovualtion kits you can try im doing them now and they are great !!! you buy them at the drug store or any shop that sells pregnancy stuff... you buy an ovulation kit for 5 days it comes with 5 peeing cups and 5 tests you do one test a day for 5 days at the same time every day.... it sort of looks like a pregnancy test but for ovualtion.... it comes up positive when you are at your highest and that means you are going to ovulate in 24 - 36 hours so you have sex on the day you get a positive and the day after....its worked for alot of women thats just an easier thing to try so that when you know you are most fertile you can plan a romantic evening and just enjoy the night instead of worrying the WHOLE month about making sure that you and your husband had sex on certain days so goodluck and for the future CONGRATS

Answer 6

I am not mad but i can relate. Four 4 yrs now we have been trying for #2 with no luck. I pray daily and read the word . I too look up websites about preconception. It will happen for both of us when God says he is ready for us to be mothers. So until then pray and seek the Lord and put him 1st.

Answer 7

Well i am going to tell you the same thing probably everyone tells you GO TO THE DOCTOR!! The sooner you go the faster you be able to concieve. You probably have a hormone inbalance or PCOS. Are you having sex at the right time of the month. You ovulate 12-14 days after the first day of you period. Try to have sex every other day (sperm live up to 48 hours after they are out!) Good luck, best wishes

Answer 8

I do the same thing. It gets me so angry when all these teenagers are having unwanted children with no means to support them, and my husband and i are having so much trouble conceiving. The bad part with me is my husband doesn't understand that with out help i wont have child i have PCOS. I talked him into me getting on clomid to help conceive so i hope it works. I read all the web sites i ordered the natural fertilaids and etc... I just cant wait wait anymore grrrrrrrr lol

Answer 9

Well, I think if stop thinking about having children so much, you may end up getting pregnant. It does cause stress to think and worry about getting pregnant. As soon as my husband and I stopped trying, we got pregnant. In fact, I know a few couples who said as soon as they stopped trying they got pregnant. If you haven't already, ask your gynecologist for prenatal vitamins, stop stressing, get plenty of exercise and enjoy time with your partner not trying to have a baby. I am sure it will come together at the right time.

Answer 10

Have you seen a fertility doctor? There could be something wrong, and there could very well be a way to fix it! I'm sorry you are so frusterated, and I sure hope something works out soon. I know there are plenty of people in your same boat and you are not mad, but stress can have harmful effects on fertility, so try to keep it cool and find ways to de-stress. Good luck.

Answer 11

i understand how you feel. all i can think about at the moment is having a baby and it doesn't help that everyone else seams to be pregnant. i am on my 6th and final cycle of clomid and hope that this month i will finally get pregnant, i really don't want to consider the options (ie assisted conception, adoption etc) yet. good luck, i hope it happens for you soon. stay positive.
