Conception Frustrations?
If you're trying to conceive and it's taking longer than you had hoped, what frustrations are you running into? Is it that just about everyone around you seems to be pregnant? Or, something someone said? Or, is you-know-who (your mom, his mom...) pressuring you or asking when way too often? Does it sometimes feel like TTC is more like Trying to Cope?

Do you Wear These Shoes?

Posted by: oneababy on Fri Jun 20, 2008
Im only 23 years old and I have been trying to get pregnant with my husband for 11 months. As of late they have informed me that not only am I not even ovulating, that I dont have the hormones to ovulate and without taking the progesterone and Clomid (sp?) it wont be possible for me to conceive. For the past 11 months all i have heard from people is that "im too stressed out", or "i just need to relax and not think about it" and Im so tired of everyone telling me that Im stressed because Im not. To top it all off, a friend of mine that knew I have been trying for so long just got pregnant after being off of condoms for one month! Then the day she told me she was pregnant she smoothered it into my face the whole day! I guess I just want to hear from someone that has been in my shoes and was told they would have to use the fertility drugs. If im not pregnant by next month Im told that they are going to do the Endo Laproscopy on me, which Im hoping wont have to take place. My husband keeps telling me that hes under a lot of stress with me taking these pills and its taking a toll on him (WHAT ABOUT HOW I FEEL?) i just dont feel like anyone can relate and there isnt anyone i can talk to. I even tried to talk to my friend about it and all she could do is sit there and try to tell me that I could look into adopting... Im not even ready to think in that direction and that wasnt what I wanted to hear from her. I just need someone to tell me that they have been through this and that there is hope. Any words of advice (besides "it will happen" or "Dont stress out"?) Thanks for listening!
