Been TTC for over 2 years now. I don't understsnd why. I've been to the dr. and I'm taking clomid which makes me crazy. Im so sick of looking at calendars and taking pills. I'm so depressed. Nothing makes me happy. I cry all the time. The dr said if in 6 months were not pregnant with clomid we have to do something else. Im just ready to give up. Everyone I know is pregnant or has become pregnant w.o trying. I don't know who to talk to. Trying to find a support group isnt that easy. I stumbled across this thought id give it a try.
My wife and I have been trying for 9 months now.
This process was very fun at first and it is slowly becoming draining.
There are a lot of emotions involved as well. The first 3 months it was app+OPK, the next 3 were app+pre seed+opk, and the last 3 were just apps and trying right around the time of ovulation. The doctor wants us to get another round of tests done. Doctor already suggested Clomid in the coming months after she sees the next batch of results.
I hope you know you are not alone. I hope you know I'll keeping hoping and praying for anyone going through it. I can understand what you guys are going through. Every month that you realize you aren't pregnant there is an indescribable feeling. You just drop down in disappointment. My wife is at the point where she delays telling me b/c I shut down and act differently.
I've realized that through it all, I'd rather be happy with my wife than be down about this whole process. It definitely does not help when you feel everyone around you is getting pregnant. Try avoiding social media and/or anything that could cause those negative monthly feels to come back. Stay hopeful/Stay Strong. It will happen. And there will be people lost and depressed that will need your help.
All the best!
Keep being strong. I hope it works out for us.
I wanted to ask a weird question. Do you stay in bed, elevate, or try anything after the dance? My wife lays for about 30 minutes but ALWAYS pees afterwards. I'm sure its not a big deal but can rushing to urinate cause any issues? Also what apps do you like? We have Clue and Glow. Clue is more accurate for us.
Just curious what you guys are doing or if it matters.
Thanks!
My wife's OBGYN wants us to see fertility specialist. Does anyone have any experience with what they will be looking for? Insurance doesn't cover any of the advanced treatments. We've had two blood tests done on her and two semenalysis done for me. Her ovulation signs were all low.
I'm not sure what to expect here. Scared and nervous. But still hopeful.
Any experiences would be great.
