ISO - Encouraging Words and/or Tips

The short version of my TTC journey is my husband and I have wished/wanted/tried for a baby for years. We stopped trying to prevent one in 2013...and here we are in 2025 still with no babies. 😞 I am overweight and have been dealing with PCOS for awhile and this journey has basically been torture. I am very blessed to have a wonderful, handsome stepson who I cannot say enough good things about. And we don't use the word 'step' in our house. He's my boy just as much as I'm his Momma. 🥰

But, as I'm sure some of you know, being a step-mom, you don't have that blood connection with that child. I have longed to have that for years. My husband is an absolutely incredible Dad and he deserves another child. I feel like I have been keeping that from him. The birth mother completely robbed my husband of any "firsts" when his son was a baby. She refused to let him see him for the first year of his life simply because she was being greedy and didn't want him involved. And he tried and was there for her through so much... it's been tough for lack of better words. All came out well in the end because we have full custody of him but.. story for another day. I'm so ready to watch him experience pregnancy with me, the woman who has loved him for 13 years, and go through all the firsts as a Daddy. ❤️

So, my point in all this is I finally got my hands on the Glow ovulation tests. I wish I had found them much sooner and I'm trying to stay hopeful but I can't help but feel like I'm missing something. Does anyone have any encouraging words/tips about these test results? Today (Jan. 28th) was my peak day according to the app and that's why I tested 4 different times. My anxiety voices are telling me that I'm wasting my time and it's never going to change. I know I'm probably being impatient but.. I'm 34 and my husband just turned 36 today... so we're beyond ready. The best birthday gift I could ever give him would be a positive test... ✨️✨️🤍

Thank you in advance and please, be kind. I'm already stressed/depressed enough over all of this. 🩷
