Just starting this journey and already frustrated

Alyssa

Hi everyone!

I’m just starting my TTC journey and I’m already feeling frustrated. I went off birth control in December and started tracking immediately. According to all the signs, I ovulated earlier this week but am not seeing a thermal shift and am starting to feel disheartened. Reading all the different posts in this community stresses me out! I see some people who came off birth control were off for mere weeks and were pregnant, and then I see posts where women say it took them years. I have anxiety and thinking about trying for years makes me want to curl up in a ball and ever even try! It is so frustrating that as women we are barely fertile for a few days out of the month and our men are (usually) fertile every GD day?!?! Ugh. Rant over. I just needed to vent my frustrations to people who would understand.
