Trouble TTC

I'm new here

Hi ladies,

So I am sort of new to this here.  I have officially been trying for a year with no success and am now heading into the unkown territory of testing/treatment.  I am not really sure how to feel about this.  My twin sister became pregnant on her first try so I guess I assumed I would be just like that... have sex = get pregnant. Each month of this year became more and more difficult to see no BFP.  I tracked my cylces, used OPKs, read everything I could about TTC and none of it seemed to help. Frankly I am just scared and sad and feeling all of these terrible emotions.  I thought that this is the best place to have some moral support because the people around me don't know what this is like and they keep telling me that it is "happening for a reason" and "when it's meant to be, it'll happen".  I just feel incredibly hopeless.  Is this normal???

  • Welcome! I am pretty new here as well. I know how you feel. I always thought that if I quit the pill- I would get KU. Nope- I was wasting all that $ and polluting the environment the whole time! Everyone is super helpful and supportive here! We all know what emotions you are having! And the comments from friends- don't get me started!

    I can't agree more with everything you just said... I thought the same thing, get off of bcp and wamoo blamo I'll be prego. lol. If only... We have also been ttc for a year now with no luck but the people here are wonderful and are full of advice, don't be afraid to ask. GL with your TTC journey, I hope your stay is short.

  • Thank you!  It's so nice to hear that there are people out there that understand how I feel :)   I will be getting testing this month and I feel kinda lost with it so I know I'll have questions.  It's nice to have somewhere to go to ask them. 

  • I felt pretty alone once with this journey at first as well. No one really understands what it's like to try month after month after month. Something that is so easy for so many... it's just not that way for everyone. This board has been a GREAT support for me. You realize you aren't alone, there are so many women dealing with the same sh*t you are, and they are so so so supportive. So welcome, and feel free to ask any questions. Someone here has been through it and will have the answer!
