first time on the board and sad
| Fri, 08-08-2003 - 12:57pm |
I've been reading messages on this board for a while but this is my first to post. Been TTC for about 10 months now. This month I tried not to get hopeful but now I'm in the Red Zone (just before getting my period) and now is when I do the wrestling with myself, "I think I'm pg! No, I'm NOT pg! Take a test! No, I'm too scared it'll be neg again!" AND this month my temp is higher than most AND today is 10 dpo and still no period (though I have very long cycles) AND though my breasts were super tender for the last 5 days, today they feel a lot less tender.
I'm sad and want to cry but trying to keep it together at work.
Does someone have a turning word?
Many thanks to everyone for their courage.

I am sorry you are down. This can be a terribly difficult journey. How old are you? I am 31 and my doc says after 6 months TTC to come in for testing. Have you done any fertility testing?
I know this process can be awful. I am at 10 DPO, and although I was not hopeful this cycle (BDing was off), I decided to test today anyway (post below what a dope!) BFN. I dont' know why I did it. I took a day off from work today to de-stress HA. If I had gone in to work I would never have tested. The worst part is, I had no test, drove to the pharmacy and bought one, all the while knowing it is too early.
My only words to try to ease your sadness is that you are not alone.

I wish you the best of luck. Keep trying, and demand that a doctor listen to you, if you haven't already.
I do the same thing to myself every month battling the no I am not and the maybe I could be. I hope things are different for you this time. Good luck. Christy
I know I go through it every month, as easy as it is to say and hard to do, try and stay positive...............
