TTC - Am I or Am I Not

So is anyone else in the same boat --- every month goes in cycles - two plus weeks till we can TTC and two weeks till we know the results ---- it is the last two weeks that kill me - I just want to know! But then when I get my friend I end up way bummed. What a rollercoaster!

Re: TTC - Am I or Am I Not

I feel you pain! DH & I are in the middle of our 4th cycle of actively TTC (I'm actually on day 16 right now). I get pretty sad every month Aunt Flo shows up. I know that there are many people in this world who have been TTC soo much longer than us but it doesn't make it any easier. And I have ALOT of friends who got PG on the first try or without even trying at all so its all the more frustrating! Anyway, I guess the only advise I'd have is to try to relax and have fun while trying (I know, I know- way easier said then done!!)
Wishing you lots of baby dust!! ~~~~ ~~~~~
By the way- check out the boards at Babycenter.com - I've started posting over there alot lately- there are a ton of girls going thru the same thing!

Same here... I still don't ovulate on my own, so I'll be having to take Clomid next cycle. I tried for the longest time to see if it could happen on its own and nothing!

Baby dust to you!!

Re: TTC - Am I or Am I Not

that totaly $ucked. I hated it. Did you read Taking Control of Your Fertility? That book was a huge help to me. I also chatted with other TTC women on line. that was a huge help.

Re: TTC - Am I or Am I Not

I just bought that book and OH MY..is it informative!!! I got it on Ebay for $6.00 plus $3 shipping. I never realized what I didn't know about my body. Hopefully when we start TTC it will work with all the new info I have!

Good luck and baby dust to you!

Re: TTC - Am I or Am I Not

I just started the Clearblue fertilty monitor after 3 unsucessful months of TTC. My new cycle just began too.

Charting is not for me (basal thermometor & all). I just read that book and it was very good, although, my GYN recommend I try the monitor so I am.

Lets see.....!

Good Luck all!

Re: TTC - Am I or Am I Not

I just starting the ClearBlue Monitor also. I just couldn't get the hand of charting lol.

Re: TTC - Am I or Am I Not

I'm right with ya. I feel like I've done it all. I'm using the monitor now, I chart every month, I'm on Clomid (last cycle of it) and I was feeling pretty confident the beginning of this cycle (9th month of trying) and now I'm starting to get depressed that it will just be the same as all of the others.

It is absolutely an emotional rollercoaster -- but we all on the same ride with you.

Feel free to talk about it -- it always makes me feel better to vent a bit and get it off of my chest.

Keep the faith! BABY DUST!************************************************************************************

Re: TTC - Am I or Am I Not

I have been on that roller coaster for some time now-- Just started cycle 5 and it is not fun at all--- I have been using the ClearPlan FM and it makes me feel better although I have had no success as of yet.
Fertility Friend helps me to monitor the monitor--if that makes sense---
I live on pregnancy.org boards as well as babydust and have even started on some of fertility friends circles--
Baby Dust to all those who need it
