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?

Teen Mom?
Has anybody seen the new tv show "Teen Mom"? I watch it and can't help but want to somehow find these girls and say like "if you don't want to take care of your baby just hand it over"? I just feel like how is it that these people/kids that don't want to have babies get pregnant like it was nothing and here I am, never done anything to anyone and I couldn't get pregnant no matter what I try. It's just really frustrating and some of them act as though it's a terrible burden when I would die to have their problems. Aaarrrrgg! :)

how hard it is to conceive
Yesterdary I had a Endometrial Biopsy done, that is just one the test that has done to me. I have had 2 HSG, Hysterscope, and now the biobsy. I have been ttc for more than 6 years now. The first time I got preg It was a tubal preg, I had my R tube removed. I also suffer from irregular periods a 28-38 Cycle. I am on my 3rd Doctor to determine the cause of my infertility. Yesterday I had a breakdown! I cried all day after the procedure. My husband has problems as well. He has prostaitis, with low motility, and some immature sperm. I am so stressed out already, why is it so hard for me. Some woman get preg without trying like a friend of mine that she got preg 4x and those 4x she got an abortion. Where I see people I know that they preg year after year. I'm 26 I keep trying and nothing. I am so frustrated.:(

Conception frustrations after a m/c and emergency c-section.
My husband and I have a 13 month old son and we have been TTC since he got back from his third tour in Iraq. We have done everything that the doctors have said, taking my temp in the morning, charting my cycle, sex everyday and every other. I have a previous m/c and our son was born by emergency c-section after I was in labor for 10 weeks and I'm starting to worry that scaring might have something to do with the problems we're having. I've been told I need to relax that it will just happen but it hasn't and I'm getting really discouraged. My doctor says she can't do anything for us till we've been trying for over 12 months but everything I've been reading says at six months of TTC without conception that we should see someone just in case something is wrong. Does anyone have any ideas that might help my husband and I give our son a little brother or sister?

About ready to give up.
We have been TTC for about 4 years now. To be honest I have kind of lost track of how long because it gets so discouraging and depressing to have had been TTC for over 48 times and always had to deal with the arrival of AF 48 times. I have m/c twice and they were very difficult and painful. My doctor sends me to specialists but they all say they dont know what the problem is and I should just relax. My hubby seems to feel the same way and just says to not worry about it and it will just happen on it's own. But after 4 years is that really a realistic point of view? He doesn't want to talk about it and I end up sad and very isolated feeling. It was great to find this forum and see that there are alot of other women going through the same thing. I came on this website to track AF so that I could be prepared and it was great to find that it is so much more.
Now I'm sitting here feeling the early signs of cramps and thinking about giving up and maybe adopting (also a difficult subject to get him to discuss).
Anyways, thanks for posting your stories for me to read and thanks for letting me rant, it's probably AF causing my mood. ;)

Round 6...
I had the Mirena IUD removed in June and waited one cycle to really start ttc. I've notice since I've had the IUD removed, I've had more noticeable PMS symptoms than before the IUD. They're so extreme that for the last couple times I thought I was pregnant for sure only to have AF pay an ugly visit. Well, my cycle is running @ 34 days & I ovulated on/around Dec. 20/21 & AF is due in three days on 01/05/10. Yesterday I was nauseated as heck all day long & today my bbs are so sore it hurts to even look at them...lol. I've had these symptoms before (but never this extreme) since we've been ttc, but always resulting in a BFN & AF a couple days later. I'm afraid to get my hopes up only to have the dreadful visit from AF. I also had some very mild cramping off & on last week but no spotting. Anyone have an opinion?

Coffee and Conception
Only on Cycle 3 of TTC, and have cut my coffee consumption A LOT!
I used to drink about 6 cups a day. I've cut this in half, and some days may only have 2 cups of coffee.
As a substitute I've being having herbal teas and ordinary tea, or just water/squash.
I'd really like to get others views on whether coffee consumption has affected their conception/ovulation.
Any info gratefully received!
Baby Dust to all
