Trying is really hard.

Sam • 31, TTC baby #1

My husband and I have been TTC for 5 months now (but 6 cycles). It’s honestly really starting to wear me down. Some of you wonderful ladies have been trying for years and honestly I’m sending all the baby dust I have to you!!

I can’t help but wonder what is wrong. I know it can take up to a year but no one in either of our families took longer than their first try to conceive. I finally went to a natural path which is a paid doctor (I’m in Canada they won’t test me until the year mark) and getting progesterone done this week 🤞🏻 I was supposed to have a full panel done on CD3 but of course it’s over New Years so life labs is closed and I can’t do it until next month.

We got married in August after 9 years together. We want our little one so bad and EVERYONE is asking where now I feel the obligation to tell them we haven’t had luck yet - but also why should I??

Just a small rant to say I am struggling. I’m hoping this is our month and hoping to god progesterone is over 10. Sending so much love to all of you, this is so tough mentally :( any suggestions of things that have worked during 2ww? I’m 1DPO today 😊
