My wife and I are trying to get pregnant. We have a donor who is great. He is in it with us for the long hall as far as getting pregnant. We are still in the early process of trying to get pregnant. We have tried three times. This last time I thought I was pregnant but 4 pregnancy test later gave me a big "not pregnant". I know that it can take time to get pregnant and some people are lucky and get pregnant easy. This past time I found out I wasn't pregnant I feel like I let my wife and our donor down. I am trying to not let it get me down. I don't know how to feel. Any advise? We are gonna keep trying for sure.

You shouldn't feel like you have let anyone down but I can understand that you may feel like this because it has not worked. Stressing out about it will not help you need to try and not worry about it too much easier said than done I guess. Good luck on you journey and I hope you are successful x

Life tends to happen when it wants to. Id say just take care of yourself. Take prenatal vitamins even thought you are not pregnant yet. (it helps) sometimes stressing too much on trying to get pregnant may be the one reason you're not getting pregnant. If you stop trying and let things flow, sometimes that's the best thing you needed and before you know it...you've got that baby bump. I've spent most my time avoiding being pregnant and have the opposite problem...birth control doesn't work on me.
anyway eat a healthy diet, and keep yourself healthy. don't lose hope. I've had several friends have a doctor say they will NEVER be able to have babies. they adopted 2 and ended up with 2 of their very own. so anything is possible and anything can happen.
