TTC for almost two years and everything is normal?!?

Question

Hello everyone, This is my first post here... I really feel like I need support, hope, and an outlet to vent. My husband and I have been TTCing consistently for almost two years now and we still haven't gotten lucky enough to get a positive POAS. I constantly track my very regular cycle with apps, checking CM and LH strips. We've used preseed and have tried BDing both a lot and only a once during my fertile days. I was always afraid that something was wrong with me because I have very painful menstural cramps every month. We visited an RE for the first time a couple of months ago and we went through all of the bloodwork, HSG and semen analysis. I even had a laparoscopic surgery a few weeks ago since I have been addressing my concerns for a while now with my ob/gyn about the painful periods. So they didn't find anything wrong with me during the surgery... And we went through the results of the bloodwork, HSG and semen analysis with the RE this week and everything is normal for both my husband and I. I'm just really frustrated right now after having gone through the surgery and all those tests and we still don't have any answers. The RE suggested that we begin treatment of injectables with IUI but it's $2,000 for every cycle we try. We can't afford that right now and we feel completely hopeless!!! ??

I am praying for you

Answer

You are not alone we have been trying for over 9 years, went to an infertility doctor and they couldn't find anything they said everything is normal. It's hard trust me specially when everybody you know is getting pregnant and you are not. Just don't give up keep trying. Best wishes to you!

So there she was waiting for and wanting her period to come to finally start taking this medication, and low and behold her period never came! She got pregnant I feel bc she for once had the stress of wanting her period to come and not overthinking becoming pregnant. I think you should just "stop trying" and let your body take its natural course and just live your life fully and if it happens it will happen when you least expect it. Take trips with your husband, travel, do things you've always wanted and your miracle will come. If not, adoption is always an option too! And it's a beautiful one at that! Hope I didn't sound harsh, I just know overthinking, stress and pressure on yourself is the worst thing you can do when you want your body to be in a pregnant state. Best of luck to you and I will be sending good vibes your way and to all the other woman in your same shoes :)

Answer

Many women I know have been in your same shoes. Key thing is stress! Women put too much pressure and stress on themselves about getting pregnant and yet it doesn't happen. It's the brutal but honest truth. You need to just stop "trying" live your life with your husband and stop living to try and conceive. Stress is an awful thing for the body. I have been there too, (not trying to get pregnant) but thought I was bc I had unprotected sex with my husband and it's crazy how I can "feel" pregnancy symptoms and be late on my period, but eventually it comes. For instance, my sister in law had been trying to pregnant for almost two years and when she was finally prescribed Clomid, she needed to start taking it once her period started.
