Feeling defeated, drained and sad
Hello. I don't usually post but today I feel so defeated and over-emotional. I was compelled to post. I'm 34. Healthy. Successful. Great job doing what I love. Have an amazing husband of almost 2 years. A dog. Beautiful house and a great family. We have everything we could ever dream- except for a baby. My husband and I have been together for over 10 years. We focused on our relationship, careers and learning about ourselves in that time. And now we want to raise a family.
We're TTC # 1. This is our 7 cycle with no success. I got my period today. Right on time. I cried in my bathroom for an hour. I feel so defeated, sad and alone. My husband thinks I'm over emotional and that we just need to give it more time. I don't understand why it's not happening for us.
I do the kits, temp every day, we make love frequently when I'm fertile. I read books to help me understand my cycle and what it takes to make a baby. I talk with my closest friends. I have support. But no pregnancy yet.
I have had blood work, ultrasound, and even an HSG. All normal. I do have painful periods and spotting but my doctor is not concerned.
I'm wondering what else I can do. Maybe I need words of hope or success. I don't know what I need. I'm usually so positive but I'm losing that momentum. Do I have my hubby checked? Do I go ahead and do a hysteroscopy? Do I just give it a few more months? I'm drained and just indecisive. Help?
