Hi everyone** 
​Im new here & just want to vent a bit. 
​Ive been off birth control for 7 mobths, but since last month me & hubby decided to ttc.
​We did a lot of baby making...almost everyday, i had period-like cramps for more than a week (which i never get do long before my period arrives). I truly felt like we could be pregnant...
​And then my period came this morning ?? ive been crying a bit. No matter how long one has been ttc, a negative is still just as much a dissapointment nontheless.
​Anyone had the same feeling when they got their negative the first month ttc?
