how do you deal with the disappointment?
We've only been trying to conceive for 3 months but it feels like an eternity. The longer it takes the more depressed, emotional and frustrated I become. Each month when my period comes I want to give up and spend the money we are saving for a baby to do a dream trip instead. Each month when my period comes I want to cry, yell and sleep for a long time. I feel alone and confused because I didn't know that it wouldn't happen right away. My mom conceived all 3 kids right away and I thought it would be the same for me. Each month my period comes, I feel myself getting older and less fertile. I know it's only been a few months but it feels reallly terrible, my heart breaks for the women who take years to conceive and I wonder how they hold onto hope and survive emotionally. I cringe thinking that this might be my life for a long while. I don't feel cut out for this process. How do you all deal with the stress, disappointment and emotions of ttc?
