Trying to conceive and feeling low about it
Hi ladies
Anyone need any support? I’m feeling just so sad about this process of TTC. Questioning if anything is wrong and having to wait a year before bringing it up with the doctors 😞 I just don’t feel positive at all.

Would love some support and I would love to provide support to any ladies that want to talk. ❤️

im all over the place
aw it’s rubbish isn’t it. I literally didn’t think there was a 25/30% chance of conception even we you time it right. I was very shocked. I’m on Cd38 period due today as I ovd late don’t have cramps, boobs are a tiny bit sore. Took a test on CD12 so two days ago and was negative. If nothing happens today il take a test in the morn. Pretty sure it will be negative tho. How do you cope is there anything you do to relax? I’m just so ready to have a little one to love unconditionally 😞 x
give pregnacare his and hers conception a try xx
Hey lovely @RayleighGirl2015, how are you? do you feel each cycle your hitting the right times because I do? crazy isn't it. How annoying that that happened to you, I bet that messed with your head and emotions. I know it would have with me. Iv never seen a skint of a line lol
This cycle is making me crazy just because of the length of it. I had cramping 7/8dpo and also 10-12dpo and now 14dpo nothing and AF should be coming today. Took a test this morn and nothing.
it is nice to know that I'm not alone because also so upsetting to know that others are going through it and its actually more common then I ever though of people struggling to get pregnant

@Amnx Hey hun I take folic acid but also just started taking Vit B6, D, C and iron also just bough from evening primrose as I don't get a lot of stuff down there and bought some preseed so January I am ready lol x
I really recommend COQ10 supplement, it's really helped with me, my cycles are pretty much back on track and it's meant to help with egg quality. I take those and folic acid.
Like you I had no idea about this stage in life and how it affects so many people, it's such a shame but we WILL get our BFPs! Looking back I am not sure if we did dtd at the right time considering how late I ovulate. That's why I think this cycle I have a better chance... maybe!?
That's great that you are bd'ing as much as you can around your ovulation, do you know when you ovulate? xx
@Amnx il have a look into it hun I haven't heard about it before so will read up tonight thank you. So sorry to here about your MC's I cant begin to image it happening.
Do you have any children already or trying for your first? I'm 31 and trying for my first, wish id have started earlier as we have been together almost 5 years now but just kept putting it back depending on what was going on in our lives. x
thank you.
no we don't have any children yet, im 27 and have been with OH 7 years xx
@RayleighGirl2015 that's good at least you are both taking something to help xx
@RayleighGirl2015 oh your cycles are like mine then. I ovulated on CD24 this month and CD21. I'm on the 2nd cycle of BBT and opk's so I'm able to pin point it and use Kindara and Fertility Friend as my apps still learning though. Trying my best I don't think there is much else I can do lol.
I have heard of COQ10 supplement. Il give it another 2/3 months with all the stuff I have started this month and bought for next month and see what happens before getting anything else. thanks for the heads up on it though. YES we will! need to keep positive don't we its just heard in those final days leading up to expected period day. Still nothing for me today on 14 dpo but took a test and was negative so I know it will be soon.
As long as you can try cover the 3 days before ovulation and day off I think anyone is maximising their chances of conception. x
yeah stick with what you have then see.
Yes if you know when you're roughly ovulating then dtd every other day, apparently every day can reduce potency but then lots of people get pregnant with dtd every day... so I guess it just depends on how it goes for you! There's never an exact answer!! xx
Welcome @Wonderingaug it really is isn't it
iv got to say I feel fine up until the second week count down to testing or when AF is due and then I'm an absolute emotional wreck. I honestly just cant not over think everything in that week.
I swear before TTC I never felt ovulation pain, I never had cramps unless it was a day or two before period due and now I feel everything!
I was on the pill for a long time where I didn't have periods and so for the last 18 months since stopping it iv only just seen my pattern of having long cycles but I really wish id have known sooner.
iv heard different things about that I may try the every other day in my window as I have just tried everyday in it and to be honest its draining lol I'm lucky my husband isn't bothered about me scheduling him in it doesn't affect him at all lol
Glad we can all support each other! an yes its comforting to know I'm not the only one with later ovulation
