Trouble TTC a Sibling

Why can't I just accept the bfn

A little background. ..
With my first pregnancy I swear I started getting sick the moment of conception. We werent trying and I took several hpt all negative. I went to urgent care..they did a urine test..negative...weeks of test and medication for ulcers..at 2 am ER trip and then I got a positive urine test at the hospital I was 10 weeks!! I was on bc and it wasn't uncommon for me not to get a period.
So not struggling to convince a second child, every bfn leaves me with false hope. And each time AF comes I continue to be heart broken.
I think it's time to take a break from trying. ..anyone else struggle to accept the bfn each month?

  • ((hugs))  I have not been ttc very long for #3, but with #1 after my m/c and before my sticky bfp, I had such a hard time seeing a bfn.  To the point I didn't want to take a test even though I had a feeling I was pregnant.  Just on the off chance my gut was wrong.  It sucked :(

  • I don't blame you for having a hard time accepting a BFN after your history.  The darn emotional roller coaster of the 2ww is so incredibly hard.  I know this is waayyyy easier said than done, but I try not to test.  Ever.  I hate it because I see that BFN and then get sad..Then hopeful...then crushed when AF shows.  Do you get your period regularly now?
