Still not sure what to do

[broody2013]

I've lost all hope of getting pregnant now. I think this is a good thing as its being realistic after 21 months of trying and only being 26 now. I have such a strong feeling I will never be able to get pregnant and I'm grieving really badly because I feel in my heart I will never be a mummy the traditional way.

I love this place and I want to keep 'TTC' so we can show the fertility specialists that we have actually tried so so so so hard, rather than missing fertile window or not having regular enough sex etc etc.

I don't want to leave but I am so sceptical now. I see all the positivity of our lovely new members on here and I can't imagine ever feeling that way again about TTC. It feels like a joke now that we are even bothering to keep 'trying'.

Should I leave? I would miss you all lots. I'm taking a back seat from here already which is why I'm not posting as much. I just don't feel like I have any hope left.

So sorry you are feeling like this, why cant you be referred to a specialist until next year? Surely if you have been trying for over 12 months your GP should refer you. Have you had any tests yet? Eg bloods to check ovulation or HSG to check your tubes? X

Maybe just keep mainly to the long-term and the journal sections hun? That's what I do. Totally know how you're feeling btw and they'll still probably say you're doing something wrong or it could happen blah blah blah. I've half given up although I do think there's more of a chance now I've got a 28 day cycle and I'm ovulating on cd14.

It's so bloody frustrating. Xxx

Don't leave broody
It says on the nhs website that your gp should be looking to refer you after 12-18 months of trying. Maybe get a new doctors? Xx

Hi, I am sorry you are feeling in that way. TTC journey is such an emotional rollercoaster. But will you feel better in future if you give up now?
