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?

Conception Frustrations II?
frustrating to try for so long...
So me and my hubby have been ttc baby #3 for almost 2 years now. I have a 10 year old son from a previous relationship and a 3 1/2 year old son with my husband. We did all of the fertility testing and come to find out my husband's sperm may be the problem. I think we are going to try IUI in April. I hope this works. It is so frustrating to try for so long to get pregnant. I'm hoping it will happen on our own in February or March so we don't have to do IUI. It seems like everyone else is pregnant. I am happy for them, but it's so hard. Good luck to all of you ladies ttc! Let's hope this is our month! :)

Luteal phase, how do I figure it all out?
So I'm trying to conceive, and this month I decided to finally try to figure out my luteal phase. How do I figure it out. If I count from the day after I get my positive opk until the day before my period is that right? Also, isn't it always supposed to be consistent? The last five times I've tested, my spike has varied between days 10 & 14, and then my luteal phase varies from 13 - 15 days after. Isn't luteal phase always supposed to be the same? Any help would be great!

Stupid Cold may have ruined my chances for this month!
I just got over the worst cold/sinus/headache/dizzy horrible-ness last week, and I didn't take any sort of medication cause I still felt pregnancy symptoms before that, nausea, fatigue, tenderness, weirdness in the abdominal area and I didn't want any damage done.
But now AF is due Feb 5th, but we'll see. Most of my symptoms disappeared, or seemed to, so i'm convinced it will be a BFN again. I'm going be my first pregnancy 5 years ago when a was sick until the day I gave birth, I realize every pregnancy is different but I just can't stand yet another negative :(
However, was my ovulation delayed cause of my illness? I got so wiped when i was sick ,i didn't do the opk, and my temps were all up and abnormal. As soon as I felt better I made sure the BD was done just incase lol.

Another story
Hi All again,
Its been a while since I posted on here...
I had two m/c in 2010 - one in feb (twins at 9weeks) and one in Nov (at 6 weeks). The first one was so hard to go through - but thankfully - for some reason the second one I felt more optimistic that it will happen again. We stopped trying for a cpl of months (went on the pill to try and reg cycles) - Now we are back and trying and I hope it doesnt take too much longer (already been trying in total for 2 years).
Am thinking of having some acupuncture - has anyone tried this before? Or any other suggestions?
Thanks for listening :)

It'll be another BFN again this month!
I was ovulating yesturday, and who decided to catch the nastiest cold? Me! I can hardly keep my head up, I completely missed the window of opportunity there. It's making me so upset. When I woke up and looked at the time, my temp had changed. Plus the cold is worse because i'm not taking anything, I didn't want any medications just in case I did have a little bambino in me. Did this happen to anyone else? My oh my I feel like crap.....looks like it's another month of trying :(
