Welcome girl!! I'm sorry for all you have been through, but happy you found this wonderful group. It's tough to stay positive with IF, and it's ok to be pissed/sad/negative some days. I hope you find the support you need here. Do something nice for yourself today and have a fab birthday :)

Welcome to the group! I'm sorry to hear of your struggles. It sucks, and you are not alone! So many people have gone through similar struggles, but no one talks about it. So it's so easy to feel alone. At least on here we can all vent and be there for each other. I hope the clomid works for you both, and the SA goes great!

Happy B-day! I know it is hard to get a year older while TTC, but I do wish you a great b-day anyways! Keep your head up as best you can. I'm sure you attitude will be back to positive soon. Thinking of you and sending love!

Thanks ladies! I really appreciate the support. Really nice to know that I am not alone and have others to vent to.

Welcome to the group! I am sorry to hear you are feeling so down right now. My Dh and I are in a similar situation as you and your Dh and it is very frustrating. I hope that the clomid works for you both and soon you will have your miracle. I know it hard right now, but I hope you feel better soon and I hope you have a Happy Birthday :) And good luck with your Dh's SA results. I will be sending many positive vibes your way....

Thanks and likewise Scasey! Thanks for letting me vent :)

First....happy birthday!!! Second, welcome and third, I'm sorry that you have to be here going through IF:( it is hard to stay positive when dealing with all of this. Try to take it one day at a time. Both DH and I are just a few weeks away from turning 34 and it seems like we are the only ones without kids but I know at the end of the day we have each other and one way or another we will become parents!

Baby dust to you!!

Hi there. Was looking for some support myself and stumbled across this group! The feelings you are describing sound exactly the same as what i'm going through also. Im 30 and my husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for 18 months. I've had all the tests that showed there is nothing wrong. My husband has low motility however 4 doctors have told us that we can still get pregnant naturally. Despite this, every month when I get my period i feel a sense of disappointment and failure. Everyone around me is getting pregnant in 5 minutes and telling me to 'relax, it will happen' which just makes me feel angry and annoyed. Just like you said, no body understands and its very isolating. To make matters worse, in November two of my closest friends told me they were pregnant. Around the same time I found out I had high grade precancerous cells in my cervix requiring possible surgery. Similarly to you, i'm also a positive person generally but the last few days I have just been crying all the time. I'm really sick of hearing 'just stop thinking about it' or 'maybe you are not getting the timing right' - super frustrating!!! Good luck to you though and i hope the journey starts to turn more positive for you soon!!! xo PS I have a family friend who started at 38 and she now has 5 healthy children so maybe there is hope for us after all!!!!

Welcome to DS hun, you have found a great group of women for support! However, I am so sorry that you are struggling on your journey to have a baby. It can be a very rough and lonely journey, fortunately we get it. This is a great place to vent, rant, complain, ask questions, cry, and celebrate.
I hope you find the support you need and get the miracle that you so deserve!
XO
