LTTC and feeling very low

[T_T_C]

Hello ladies
I'm a new member and I'm desperate for some advice/empathy/comfort. I've been trying to conceive for nearly 2 years now (for our first child) and for the first time in my life I feel I have no control over anything. Month after month my body seems to be continually betraying me and at the risk of sounding like a drama queen I really have never felt so low in my life. I'm desperate to have a baby and cannot understand why it's not happening for us. I've had all the initial blood tests which seemed ok and my husbands fine from his end. Every month I feel myself getting hopeful and then when my period arrives I'm inconsolable for at least 3 days. Functioning and going to work during this time is a mammoth task for me and I just force myself through it. I have a great relationship with my husband but he just doesn't seem to understand why I get myself in this state. I worry it will never happen for us....
I would love to hear from anyone who has been through the same and has any advice?

Hi and welcome
Sorry to hear you are having a rough time. I know the feeling, ttc our first for over two years and it is very hard now. My husband has taken it even worse and is getting very down about it all. Are you under a fertility clinic? Do you know what the next stage will be for you?

Hiya
Sorry to hear your having such a hard time oh and myself have been ttc for 2 1/2 years for our first and understand how you must feel, have you had any tests carried out?

I know how you feel. Its as if TTC is our main hobby now and the fertility clinic is our 2nd home! On the good side our relationship is stronger than its ever been. I just hope that we eventually come out the other side with a baby.

Yes can totally understand after living my life in two week sections for last 3 plus years. But this is a too big of a dream to give up on when it settles in your heart.... Hang in there and come on this forum to vent, we all do Try Marisa Peers hypnotherapy book called Trying to get pregnant and succeeding to put your mind in a better place. Good luck to you xx

You're certainly not alone, over two years ttc number 2 for me and a host of problems. It's tough and I find I'm very up and down lately, down mostly unfortunately. We're a lovely bunch hanging out in here though so that certainly helps! Have you been referred for treatment? Xx

We're all in pretty much the same boat . nearly 2 years for me too. This forum is great for support because lots of other girls are going through the same things at the same time. They understand more than your family and friends. We'll all get our positives eventually. Just when is the question ha ha
