View Full Post

I wanted to make this for all the ladies out there TTC their first little one.
Let us come together and share in each others heartache and joy.

I feel so alone in my community because everyone I know has kids.

A little info about me.

Been TTC #1 again for 4.5 months. Started tracking this cycle.
Been not trying for 18 years but havent prevented either.
Was on this site in 2011 TTC #1 with my ex but our relationship ended in 2012.
Started TTC again in 2014 with my new bf but in 2017 after no success. I found out he cheated on me and got the girl pregnant.
January 2018 surgery to remove a fibroid that was like a natural IUD as the doc said.
Me the love of my life June 23rd and we basically have been trying ever since.
I'm two weeks away from 35 years old and he turned 38 in July. He does not have any kids and we both really want some.

Made a huge mistake and tested when I got home. BfN and not even a small bit of a hint of a line. I have felt sick all day long. Have strange feels on my right side lower abs.Ugh. The test was a dollar tree test so I'm just thankful it was only a wasted 1. But really feeling down.

I am right there with you @bug I have been all over the place with feeling sick then not. Plus my energy levels have been so up and down it is crazy. The last time I took a test (I believe it was Monday, maybe Tuesday) it was a stark negative. I have been using the cheap Walmart brand since I am tired of spending so much money.

I am thinking of starting to temp and use OPKs, but I am not sure when I should start. I am on cycle day 46-47, so I both kinda want to wait till AF shows but I don’t know when that will be. Plus I want to start some of the different fertility supplements and vitamins.....I just don’t know when I should start them since my cycle isn’t regular. Any thoughts?

@shay... I would say test again and then just start taking them if it's a BFN it could jump start a new cycle.

@shay I agree with bugttc

I tested yesterday morning (CD28) and got a BFN so I’m not too hopeful for this month either.

Temps went up 11dpo. Tested and I am saying BFN but I personally think I see a vffffl forming. But I used my last dollar tree test. I'm going to get Frers after work to test with next. Here's my chart.

Good luck!!! I am going to start temping this next week and just see what happens. Definitely feeling like I am just fighting an uphill battle but not giving up!! Hoping AF starts soon and then we can try again!

AF started today for me. I’m at least happy my cycles seem to be regulating more with each cycle. I suggested to hubby that we BD every other day for this whole cycle once AF leaves to see if that gives us any success and he was more than happy to do that lol If nothing happens after that my plan is to start temping and try OPKs.

to all you ladies. Thankful that I am not alone in this journey for a little one.
