I wish I could go with the flow and relax too. When you want something so bad it’s not possible to relax or stop thinking about. I think I need to get to a stage where I am not bothered if I get pregnant or not. That’s how I was when I got my bfp but miscarried. I always think most people get pregnant when they least expect it. I really meditate or something lol I can’t wait to find out if it’s bfp or not than can move on again

Good luck this cycle maximus I’m rooting for to get a nice sticky bfp this month, will be keeping my fingers crossed for you xx

Good luck crumble hope you are recovering well after your chemical, wishing you all the luck this cycle, and good luck to everyone else waiting for a bfp this month too xx

I know right I am obsessed totally especially around 6/7dpo. I tried to talk to my husband about it but he is totally fed up and said there is nothing to talk about. It’s getting a bit boring for him to hear me moan arghhhh
At the moment I have very strange cramps on my right ovary and it doesn’t feel normal but every month I get something that doesn’t feel normal and I still get my period. Ignore ignore ignore and live myself but how? We went to a playground today and it seems to be either everyone has 2 kids or pregnant with second. I just look at them and think how ? How could this happen to me too seriously. I was envious of the bumps. I just want to get pregnant and feel all of this again

Feeling very tired today.
Boobs still tender but nipples not hurting. Body is aching a little bit but nothing to major.
Don’t think I have many symptoms for a but I suppose it’s still early (7DPO)
Bought a large pack of chocolate buttons this morning as really fancied them (not really a chocolate person)
How is everyone today x

I do know the feeling and I understand.....but just to keep in your mind that mind and body are connected and if your mind plays up your body will not be in a good condition. Try to relax, try to do meditation, there is a good app called "Calm" it is very very helpful. Big hun xx

I am 7dpo today too, and drum roll please I tested!!! really silly thing to do as of course stark white BFN, now I feel even worse. I nearly cried this morning thinking I can't be pregnant this month. I am also sneezing a lot and feeling tired. I convinced myself I am pregnant than the BFN! 7dpo is ridiculously early to get a positive anyway but still now it feels like it's never going to happen. I am feeling sorry for myself at work, and all I want is to go to bed and have a good cry how dramatic right?

 

[Maximus17]

hey Crumble I will look up the app and try it as I think I am going nuts lol

Hey Maximus. Oh no you tested. Please don't feel down as like you said it was really to early to get a it honestly doesn't mean you aren't going to get it this cycle.
I know how you feel about having a good cry though, my OH and i have been into a really good series and it was the last episode last night, it was really sad (well i thought it was) so sad that it made me cry like a baby. I would say im quite emotional anyway but that cry was something else last night haha!
Are you getting any symptoms yet? Would love to see how different i am to you as we are on the same DPO. x

hi chattychar, I feel very crampy on ovaries and some breast pain. I also felt a little bit more nauseous than usual this morning, like I have to keep eating but than it could be totally normal for this time of the month. Also just soooooooo tired like I can sleep all day. so in summary, cramps on ovaries, very hungry, tired and emotional. When I look at my period dairy these are very similar to previous months so nothing really stands out. When I got my BFP 3 months ago , I started feeling very odd after 9dpo. I knew something was up by 11dpo. I felt like an energized bunny at 9dpo, insomnia, than hot flushes at 11dpo. I really hope either one of us or both are pregnant this month

 

[Maximus17]

how do you feel by the way?

I haven't really had any cramps that stand out, the slight little twinge but nothing to write about. Not feeling nauseous either atm which is making me think i'm definitely out this cycle. Tiredness has hit me proper too but not sure if that's because i had my 3 year old nephew for 2 nights this weekend.
FX for both of us this cycle Maximus, we can get through this together

We been trying for 3 cycles now hun and yes its my first. It's all i think about. I go to sleep thinking about it and wake up thinking about it. Its actually torture. I know i need to relax more and the stupid quote it will happen when it happens doesn't work or help me lol.

thanks for the tip! hopefully I will be replying properly. I have one child , she will 5 in October. We have been trying for a year now. I managed to get my BFP on the 11th cycle by miscarried , I was devastated as 11 cycles do make you go mad, I actually gave up and said I don't care and got my BFP ,seriously, like you said above there must be some truth in it. Everyone I know got pregnant when they are most relaxed. Thats why I don't think I am pregnant again as I am obsessing. Anyway it's been 3 cycles since the miscarriage and nothing yet. I just turned 40 as well as it's not looking likely anymore. If I don't get my BFP this month I need to do something to relax otherwise it's never going to happen. I always get pregnant when I feel like I don't care and just go with the flow, of course try when you are fertile but have the attitude of it doesn't matter, I just don't know how to do that again

You replied properly
I understand why you must feel like your going mad after a year of TTC. So sorry about your miscarriage I think i mentioned before but my SIL was TTC for around 10 months and decided she isn't going to stress over it anymore and started socializing and enjoying life and like magic 2 cycles later she fell pregnant. She swears it was the Seven Seas vitamins that also helped as she was on Pregnacare before. Are you taking any vitamins? I have been using the Seven Seas for this cycle so time will tell but have heard great stories.
Have you tried conceive plus?
Age doesnt matter, my Aunt gave birth to my cousin 4 days after her 40th birthday so there is hope.
I wish i had the attitude where i didn't really care but its so hard to erase it from your brain when you want it so bad. xx

I am taking the pregnacare vitamins. I think it's harder as you get older and also having a child already. We are tired by the time we finish work, than taking care of her. Also my husband started drinking a lot since we started trying, I think thats the way he deals with stress. I am 100 percent convinced it's his drinking stopping us getting pregnant as he went on detox for 3 months , and I got pregnant at the end of that 3 months. Unfortunately he is back on it and even worse now. The month I got my BFP, I gave up and signed my daughter up for private school, I came home and told everyone that I had it and thats it no more TTC. Even my husband was shocked to hear me say these words. On that day, I felt weird and tested got my BFP!!! I mean what are the odds. I need to kind of let go of this again and but like you said how, when you want it more than anything. by the way don't worry about having no symptoms as with my daughter I had nothing thats why I tested and was again shocked to get BFP. Every pregnancy is different so lets hope right?

I think the key point is to just let go and not obsess and what ever happens happens. I wish I found the magic solution to feel like this

 

[Maximus17]

by the way I use conceive plus , I also tried preseed, again if it's going to happen it would happen no matter what I use
