| But it wasn't to be. Got my period tonight after a two week wait filled with more potential pregnancy symptoms than in the 6 months we've been trying. Had a m/c with #2 last summer. My hopes were up for this week, but I shouldn't have gotten so convinced this was it. Sad. Frustrated. Disappointed. My only consolation is that at least I won't be gigantic and waddling through July and August. I think we are going to not try to try the next few cycles. My DD would be such a good big sister so we are going to keep on this spring, but damn, this process is hard. Hugs to all of you who have been at this far longer than I. |

| This was me this past summer. Fast forward and I'm now 15 weeks along keeping my fingers crossed this one sticks. I'm sorry for your loss and frustration. Sending lots of good thoughts your way. GL. |

| Me too. 5 months of trying with no success. I've been tracking my cycles with an app, have used every calculator under the sun to try and pinpoint likely fertile days, have used ovulation testing strips (which seem frankly useless) and have now started charting my basal temp every morning. I told DH to block off several days later this month after my period ends. He's constantly dreaming about frequent sex so I told him I expect no bitching. I even went and bought pre-seed to help make the action easier. If we don't succeed on this next cycle I am going to rip my hair out and cry. I am 35 and worried that my next stop will be at an RE's office. |

This was me last year. After several months of trying we finally got the BFP, and then my period the next day. We decided to stop trying (i.e. stop tracking/ timing/ planning/ watching) and got pregnant within 2 months. Hang it there, I know it is so hard. Maybe it will come when you arent "looking" for it.
We are getting ready to start trying for #2 and Im so not looking forward to the waiting game again.... |

| I so want it to be every month but its been 3 years. Try to be positive. It will make you crazy if you focus on it too much- try to focus on other things for a while. |
