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?

Trying to understand why the need to chart BBT
I don't understand BBT. I charted my temp for a while but it wasn't that consistent. Then I read that you have to take it the same time every day. So I guess I will have to start again. I just don't understand what the benefit is. It only tells you after you have ovulated whereas the ovulation kits tell you when you are about to, so isn't that more helpful?

Trying again...
Hello All,
I have been married for 3 1/2 years and have been trying to get pregnant religiously!! I was successful twice but both ended up as miscarriages. I was hopeful that after having a DNC that getting pregnant would be "faster". As a person with hypothyroidism trying to get pregnant has it's challenges. Im also just turned 40 but I dont' think it should be considered the "END"!! Unfortunately my health insurance doesnt pay for fertility treatments so that is not an option. I have been reading up on herbal remedies as well as fertility teas. I was wondering if anyone has had any success with herbal remedies. My doc. says go for it. Part of me wants to give up and be happy with the children I have but a selfish part of me wants to try one last time. Any advise?...

Ex is pregnant. I am recovering from laparoscopy. Hugs pls
I am sobbing as I type this. I just discovered that my ex husband's wife is pregnant. They have been married for 2 months.
And I am recovering from a rather traumatic laparoscopy. Dr discovered I have PCOS, and during the lapo and ovarian drilling, he discovered that part of my bowels were stuck to my fallopian tubes. He also found an abnormal cyst in my tubes. It is thankfully benign. He has said that I should get pregnant within the next 6 months. Hmm?
I am feeling really, really, really down in the dumps. Hugs please?

So frustrated, need help!
I have been TTC for approx 7 months now, and nothing. So i decided to track my cycles, and just when I think I may have a pattern, my period would come early or really late. I tried a few different ways and nothing seems to be working. Does anyone have suggestions to help?

Discouraged and yet still waiting...AF so disappointing
I am so discouraged. I know that it will happen when it is meant to happen, but it seems like everyone but me is expecting. My boyfriend is starting to show signs of disappointment each AF. I know it is just as frustrating for him. He has Crohn's and his meds as well as smoking are decreasing his little guys' stamina. I have a hidden cervix... What's next? I am crushed every AF as well. We have been trying, but seems like we can't pin point OV. Are there ways to stimulate OV? Been trying for over a year now and starting to lose hope.

Almost 4 yrs TTC...
My husband and I have been ttc for almost 4 yrs now. About 3 yrs ago I had taken a test that said i was pregnant. Went to the Dr. n they said i was as well. While waiting for my 1st appointment to arrive (about 1 month later) i started bleeding so i went to the ER. They checked me out n said that i wasn't pregnant n they saw no signs of it. I was crushed! She said that what probably happened was that i took the tests right after i had miscarried, which made it look like i was prego, but in fact not. We are still trying, and not sure if its him or me or neither. But every time i get my period i am secretly crushed. Does anyone have any advice, new things to try, or any suggestions????
