Feeling Hopeless?

Question

This is my 6th month TTC and I will admit, after my first month, experiencing AF, I then realized how much work this journey will be. But since it's been 6 months for me, I'm feeling a bit hopeless. Does anyone share this feeling I have? When did you start to feel hopeless?

"HOW DO/DID YOU HANDLE THE HOPELESS FEELING?"

Answer

I get that feeling from time to time,  especially when my friends are popping up pregnant after only trying for a few months and here I am after almost 2 years still BFN.

I spent a lot of time bottling it up,  I wouldn't talk to anyone and put on a great fake smile. I recently realized that's doing me no good,  it just makes me hurt deeper and resent everyone.

I'm trying to spend time in mediation, picturing my future daughter,  reading,  and am learning to crochet top help me have something else to focus on. It's hard for me,  I'm not gonna lie,  I still find myself obsessing sometimes.

Answer

Honey I been ttc for four years now and I know how you feel. I can't tell you how many times I have thrown my hands up and said I give up I am done trying it isn't going to happen. Then turn right back around to stressing about and it just makes me feel hopeless at times. There are so many emotions that I have gone through hopeless, angry, sad, devastated, depressed, excited, crushed,etc... it's not an easy journey by no means but every thing that you are going through is completely normal. Sending baby dust your way.

I'm so sorry 😞 I know that feeling so well and I have some dear friends who know that feeling as well. All I can say is that there is always hope. Tomorrow will be a brand new day. You will feel happy again. It sucks and if you want to be mad/sad you have a right to. Don't let anyone ever tell you that you don't. Another thing is try to find joy in every day. In every holiday. Holidays are the worst for me. I end up sitting back and watching everyone else have a good time while I'm just sitting there barren. I tried for THREE YEARS and I finally got my BFP. I pray I never forget those awful, hopeless nights so I can be a friend to those who are struggling to conceive. Those years taught me so much about myself and (after taking me to my lowest) brought me closer to my husband and God. You are more than what your body can or can't do! 💙💙💙💙

Answer

Amen - to all of the above! It's heartbreaking  Something that's supposed to bring you and your partner together brings more conflict instead. So tired of people telling me to "just relax".

Answer

It's been two years of TTC for me and I am beyond hopeless. I stopped tracking three months ago and we are no longer actively trying. I feel terrible. TTC ruined my relationship with my hubby, my relationship with my body. I hate myself. I do not want to he sex because I hate my body. TTC has been one of the most heartbreaking and destructive times of my life. So much ch pain, so much loss, a scar that keeps getting deeper and deeper. I'm done.

I wish you all the best of luck.

Answer

I've become apathetic an resentful. (30 months ttc) my husband won't go to his followup, Bc they did find some things wrong. I've lost that butterfly feeling and excitement of each month trying, hopefully when and if it happens my maternal instincts will kick in and I'll be excited, happy, nurturing

After my miscarriage it really hit me. That was at a year ttc. 
Every 2ww is just extra frustrating because I already got my stupid positive and I shouldn't have to go through this all over again... ugh. 😂 ttc is the worst. I'm so ready to have a baby and move on.
