On Cycle 8 now...wondering how long I can do this.
I realize sometimes it "takes awhile" and normally I'm the #1 cheerleader for patience and relaxation...my wonderful daughter took 10 cycles and lots of tears and is worth it all. BUT I am getting frustrated. My periods are fairly painful and the emotional rollercoaster is getting to be a lot for me to handle. I'm *this* far from just going back on birth control, but I know that is dumb if we really want another child. Just wanted to type this all out and have a good cry. :(

I'm am so not the posterchild for patience and relaxtion. I started trying in November, got frustrated by January, took a break, changed to a healthier lifestyle and slowly started back up again March. I know since March it hasn't been that long (plus I'm 35), but it's still very frustrating. Maybe I should practice patience & relaxation. :o)
Lots of prayers and babydust to you!

I'm almost 30 and have a 4.5 year old and my husband and I are trying for baby #2 as well. My sweet wonderful son has been praying at night for a brother or sister and it breaks my heart that I can't just run out and get one! I also am not patient in any way which makes me so mad because I feel like my stress and rapid heart rate is what causes us not to get pregnant. I have changed my lifestyle as well. Cut out coffee and alcohol and in the last 3 months managed to lose over 30 lbs trying to better my chances. I know that its all in good timing and in God's plans but I am so tired of waiting and watching all my friends around me having beautiful babies. What's worse is it makes me feel like a terrible mom like my son isn't enough for me and that's not true!! I didn't mean to jump on here and complain I apologize. I hope we both get our BFP very very quickly! Good luck to you!
