Me and my husband have been undergoing tests for unexplained infertility. He had to do a semen sample and I’ve had a blood test and today went for a pelvic ultrasound. The Dr who did the ultrasound said that everything (womb and ovaries) looks healthy and as expected and it looks like I’m ovulating. I’ve got to call for the results in a week and then dependent on results may be sent for more tests (they can’t see my Fallopian tubes using an ultrasound for example)

That sounds good so far 🤞🏻 hope the results are ok too
 
I’m 10DPO today I’ve stupidly tested and got a BFN. Starting to think I am out this month :( my body has been very cruel to me this month, I’ve had cramps, backache, vivid dreams, insomnia, headaches feels like everything really! I even had the strangest sensation yesterday when I sneezed and had a sharp shooting pain in my lower abdomen near my ovaries. Felt like they were going to explode! It was very strange.

My friend is currently 11 weeks pregnant and she didn’t get a very faint positive until 14dpo x

Don't discount yourself just yet. I'm a total hypocrite because I've been thinking the same thing - BFN today at 9DPO but it really is early for both of us. Hopefully it's our month and we'll get a BFP soon ♥️
 
I'm not due on until Thursday or Friday but stupidly tested today, negative obvs. Couldn't resist after I threw up yesterday and was hopeful of morning sickness, although probably too early to be morning sickness anyway.
 
So after a long think and discussion we’ve decided to pause our TTC journey for the next year or so.. I have a new job and I want to focus on that and really prove myself there. We also want to be selfish and go on a few more trips together as most of our relationship has been restricted due to COVID. I wish you ladies the best and hope you’re all on your pregnancy journey when I return💓

Enjoy your trips and your couple time 💕 good luck for when you're back to TTC in the future 😘
 
My app now says AF due tomorrow (originally said yesterday?). I tested earlier today but it wasn’t first thing in the morning as I didn’t have a test. Anyways, BFN. Might test first thing tomorrow if still no sign of AF. Lets see
 
Definitely think I am out this month. :( TTC is incredibly difficult and I’m having a hard day today.

Out of curiosity do most people use the easy@home OPK’s or do you find something else works better? Also which tests do you tend to use first for pregnancy? I’m guessing mostly first response? I’ve only been using the easy@home pregnancy tests so far and only reaching for a clearblue if I’ve ever thought it may stick. The easy@home did pick up my chemical last month and that was at 11DPO.

For those who have ttc for a while.. do you ever struggle to envision yourself actually having a baby? How do you keep that motivation/hope going? It’s been so long that the thought of me actually having a full term pregnancy with a baby to hold at the end of it seems unrealistic! I focus so hard on trying to get pregnant but then the hard work of maintaining that pregnancy kicks in mentally. Sorry if this makes no sense… just some rambling thoughts I’m having to myself this Friday morning!

This absolutely makes sense and I feel will make sense to so many. It is such a challenging time and an emotional rollercoaster the longer time goes on. We have just found out the Clomid isn't working so have had the dreaded referral for IVF. If I hear one more time from someone "Keep staying positive" I will crack up haha!
I think the best thing to remember is that it is okay to feel annoyed, upset, guilty, hopeless ect but the thing I find helps me is allowing myself those moments, even to cry, and then moving on to a physical task where I can take my mind of those negative thoughts.
It is hard to maintain 100% positivity and that is okay. Be kind to yourself and do what you need to do for protecting your emotions as well.
I hope you are okay and sending hugs your way 💗
