How Do You Stay Positive?
We got pregnant our first month trying. Two months later I miscarried (blighted ovum). It was our first baby. We were devasted but once the whole "process" was over I was eager to try again.
We've been TTC for 3 months now which is not long (I know people try for years) but last cycle I had all the unique symptoms I had when I was pregnant. I could've bet money that I was pregnant again (possibly a CP because I passed tissue and shit). Now I'm in the 2WW and I'm getting all depressed because I feel pregnant again, but I know it'll likely be negative and if it's not, then the whole fear of miscarriage will be back.
I know what I'm feeling is normal and that there's nothing anyone can do to fix it and that I need to be patient but it's so frustrating seeing friends and family get pregnant, also some people that don't seem healthy enough to get and stay pregnant (obese, druggy, medical issues). I'm jealous...
Not to mention that we had bought a small bassinet for baby and now it sits alone in our spare bedroom that now we've converted to an office because no baby.
We're also looking to buy a home, wanting a few bedrooms for our future babies, but that may never happen... I've used OPKs, monitored CM and timed sex accordingly and nothing.
Everyone says "it'll happen when it's supposed to", or "when you stop trying it will happen." No, it won't. It's literally science...
How do these women who have many miscarriages or late term miscarriage or are infertile seem so wise and patient?
I'm a strong woman, I've been through a lot, but this is the first time in my life that I haven't been able to just move on and accept reality for what it is.
