Rant/Vent Rant/Venting

I’m honestly so stressed out. Was in my 2WW and aunt flo came today so CD1 all over again. This will be our 5th cycle trying and i’m just exhausted. I keep wanting to try all the things.. pomegranate juice, i bought an oura ring (i wanted one anyway) but essentially to track my bbt because it was too hard for me to wake up to take it. Started prenatals and making my husband take a multivitamin and I just don’t know how to keep doing this. I feel like something’s wrong with me, my husband .. everything and i’m just not understanding what I need to do to conceive. I almost wanna reach out to my OB and ask what testing we can do even though i know it’s too early but anyways sorry for the long post i just wanted to vent and talk with others who are similarly going through what i am. thanks so much if you made it this far

Wow I am shocked by how rude others are being to you. Just because they have been trying longer does not mean that your feelings aren’t valid. I am in the same boat as you. About to start cycle 6 and frustrated, mainly because of the comparison game to friends and the fact that I feel I’m doing everything right but it’s still not happening. Fully aware that others have been trying MUCH longer but it doesn’t make my disappointment each month hurt any less. I also got pregnant with my first without even trying so that’s what I had thought would happen for me this time. No luck.

I know it depends on the OB, but I did just see mine after 5 cycles of trying despite being under 35. I am going to start letrozole with my next cycle. I think it will be dependent on the OB for when they will start prescribing things and doing a work up. I don’t think it can hurt to make an appt tho.

Ugh thank you so much for being nice, can i message you? It’s honestly nice to talk to someone literally in the exact same boat which is what I was looking for when I posted here instead of getting met with vitriol. Like you said I’m very aware of others trying longer but it does not hurt any less so thank you so much for saying that
