Trying to Get Pregnant

New with a question about symptoms

I've been reading and watching on here for months. Thought it was finally time to introduce myself and vent a little bit.
My DH and I have been TTC since April. I''ve charted, researched, and read until my brain hurts. I know six pregnant women at work and a girlfriend just made her big announcement this weekend...and she and her DH werent even trying!!!!! UGH!
Today I am 12DPO. Last week I was hit with extreme fatigue and over the past couple of days have noticed an increase in urination, I've had TERRIBLE heartburn and a really unsettled stomach. My boobs are tender like before AF but they feel really firm. So, this morning I take a test and it's a BFN. I am so tired of this! I am holding out hope that I could still get a BFP. My hubby doesnt understand why I get my hopes up. I told him he doesn't have to feel what I feel! I walk around for two weeks driving my self crazy over what end up being phantom symptoms.
I know some of you girls have been trying for a lot longer than seven months, so I hate to complain, but I knew you would understand my frustration better than my dear sweet hubby.
So, I'm crossing my fingers that a BFP may happen this week but thinking that it realistically wont.
Thanks for listening, ladies.
Good luck this month!

Re: New with a question about symptoms
We highly reccomend charting to help you figure out your cycle, feel fre to click on my ticker to find out more! The charting course will teach you a lot!
Also, there are some links under my siggy with more info.
We certainly do understand the pain of bfn's around here.
sorry to hear.
welcome, good luck, and hope your stay is short.
I know that I feel the exact same way. It is absolutely so defeating, and it makes you start to feel like you will never get to see that BFP. I even get down when I do OPKs for a week with no positive results. I'm just sick of my body telling me NO!! Especially when in my head, I feel like it's all coming together. Honestly, no one else I know is TTC and I feel so much better hanging out here because I feel like I'm not the only one. Stay positive, it will happen for all of us!
And no, DH tries to understand, but I don't think they ever will. He thinks about it and is involved a lot, but still, I think about it every day almost all day. Exhausting. GL!
She says she does chart already. allyg, what are you using to chart? Fertility Friend is great! Welcome and GL!
