Conception Frustrations II?
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?

Will I concieve again, lost part of fallopian tube
I found out that I was pregnant,unfortunately though, I had some bleeding and so was referred to our local early pregnancy assessment unit. After a week of blood tests and inconclusive ultrasound tests, last week 17th August, I went to the epau again and was seen by the consultant registrar who did another ultrasound, she found our baby but it was in my right falopian tube. I was rushed into theatre that afternoon and unfortunately had to have part of my fallopian tube removed at the same time. I am absolutely devastated and I am now worried that I am never going to have a baby. Has anyone been through this and gone onto have a baby? I was 6 weeks and 3 days pregnant.

Ovulation tester confusion
Hi Ladies. Hope I good get some help. I just bought my first ovulation tester. When do I start testing? As soon as AF is done or a couple of days after AF is done? Thanks for any info you can provide.

So frustrated right now
Ugh, what the heck is wrong with me? I'm 23 and my husband is 22, so we still have a long time before we should really start worrying, but this month will be the last month of ttc before it'll be a year. I went to the doctor about 4 or 3 months ago, and she said everything is fine and not to be worried. Its soo frustrating. My period is perfectly normal, it comes exactly when its supposed to (31 days) with the variation of 2 or 3 days early or late, So I don't get what the heck is wrong. All my friends that have had babies or are pregnant, I don't really know how long they were trying or whatever but they got pregnant before they'd even been together for a year. And then I have another friend who is younger than me and she had problems with her period where she would skip one or two periods at a time, and she's 7 months pregnant now. So its just like if someone who didn't even regularly get a period can get pregnant why the heck can't I? My husband's cousin even got pregnant, had a miscarriage and got pregnant again within the time that we've been trying. Its just so frustrated watching all these people who you would think would be having problems getting pregnant, and they're getting pregnant way easier and sooner than I am, when I "supposedly" have nothing wrong. Just totally needed to vent all that I just got AF last night after being about 3 days late and getting my hopes up waaay too high, so thanks for listening.

Conception Woes..
My frustration comes from the length of time we wait just to conceive. My son took 10 months. We are now trying for our 2nd and we are 11 months in. We had a miscarriage back in December at only 5 weeks along. I hate when people keep asking, "are you pregnant yet?" or "How long have you been trying?" And when they hear that we've been trying so long they say "Oh, well it will happen." I know they just want to try and make me feel better, but it honestly doesn't. Every month I feel like I've failed and have to restart all over again. The worst part is the fact that I have a friend who decided to start TTC only 2 months ago and just fell pregnant. Now I am happy for her, dont get me wrong...but she is well aware that my husband and I have been trying for almost a year, yet she rubs it in my face that she's conceived already. She is only 4 weeks along, and to me it shouldn't even be announced yet (what if she were to miscarry like I did at 5 weeks?) I know its an exciting time for her but at the same time its like, I wish she would've held off to tell me until she was further along, you know? My biggest struggle is dealing with the fact that people I know who dont even try to get pregnant are getting pregnant, and other friends who just started trying are already pregnant as well...when will my turn come?? I just dont understand what could be wrong if physically nothing is wrong with my husband or myself.....And having people rub it in my face that they're pregnant right off the bat seems inconsiderate to me.

Conception Frustrations II?
2years TTC :(
Hi all,
I'm new to this never posted in any ttc forum before as We were kind of in denial about how long its taking us to get BFP!!(oh i cannot wait for that day)
So myself(24)and my husband(29) have been together 5 years and married 1 year, we've been trying for 2 years now with absolutely no joy, only extreme dissapointment and sadness when dreaded AF arrives, i suffer from extremely painful AF and always have done :( Every month i think i am and i imagine i have symptoms which is so upsetting. also i have quite a long cycle at 34 days.
At 15 i was diagnosed with having a misshapen fallopian tube and i was told i may have a little bother getting pregnant but alas when i was 17 i got pregnant (no trying necessary at all might i add) which unfortunately ended in mc.
Why this time can i not get pregnant??? when it took so little for me conceive at 17. My self and my husband are so upset and extremely stressed out about it.
As I am quite young my GP has told me to wait a little while longer as i would not be priority for fertility docs here in Ireland. This is extremely frustrating and I feel as if i'm been fobbed off all the time.
So basically i would love to know what you guys think and maybe help me feel like i'm not totally alone.
Also does anyone else out there find it extremely annoying when people say " it'll happen when you stop trying" or " it'll happen when the time is right" if I hear that one more time...
thanks all
xxxxx
