HOW have you survived?? I can't even think about that. I'm already going insane. I'm driving myself to tears here, just anticipating.....who came up w/ this insane design, to have an entire MONTH b/f we can know?!?!!?
I read all the questions/comments from women/girls who got pregnant when they weren't even trying....why can't I have it? I want it, they don't, it's not fair! I'm just really bummed right now.

I'm sorry you're having rough time right now. TTC really is a roller coaster--up and downs and crazy curves when you don't expect it. I've been TTC for 3+ years. I guess I've learned a few ways to cope over the years--cry when you need to, be selective about who you talk to because some people are very insensitive about this subject, do at least 1 nice thing for yourself when your period does show, it's ok to indulge in daydreaming about a baby or even going down the baby aisle at wal-mart but try to keep it to a minimum, pray, and know that it is ok to steer clear of triggers if you aren't feeling good--like skipping baby showers.

I understand. Its starting to make me crazy. I think my husband and I are going to try until Oct. If we arent sucessful by then we are going to decide whether to go to a fertility specialist or just wait a few months and relax before trying again.
It really takes such an emotional toll. Its like carrying around a giant boulder all the time.
Much luck to you and everyone else out there.
Also, if you havent yet, get the book Taking Charge of Your Fertility. It has really helped me. And like someone else suggested, try an online group, it helps so much to be able to vent it all out to people that understand and have been there. I use one on Myspace, and it helps so much. Its like a supposrt group that is there whenever you need it, not just once a week.

I hear you. I am on my 14th month ttc. It can drive you nuts. Try not to let it consume you though. Take up a hobby or activity to help pass time. I started going to a fitness class. You will find it is harder to wait at certain times. 6 months and 12 months were really hard for me. I was like I can't believe we have tried for a year and nothing. Just stay positive and don't stress. They say that it can cause fertility issues too. good luck and stay positive!!!!!!!!!!

Don't worry, keep your head up high and find new hobbies, new things you like to do. You can even make a hobby out of TTC... I started doing BBT and I love entering the temps into my chart on www.fertilityfriend.com.
I was diagnosed with PCOS yesterday and still a little bummed out, but things will work out. I guess the trick is faith... and keeping yourself REALLY busy! LOL!

My husband and I have been trying for a year and it's been such an emotional rollercoaster. We have stopped trying now as it has been causing alot of sadness. It seems all our couple friends are expecting now too. We are happy for them though. My husband and I have both decided to focus on our careers and save for some nice holidays. Baby dust to you!!!
