I just need to vent my feelings because I am embarassed to talk about it to my dh. He will just think I am being silly and getting obsessed by it - I am I know. I cant control this strong urge to have another baby. I cant handle another month going by.

Dh has been sweet and finally realises ho much this means to me and said he does want it to which made me so happy so this month I just really thought it happened.

I have been feeling so pregnant for the last week.

I'm due on Thursday and I have a horrible taste all day in my mouth amongst other pregnancy symptoms but today the feeling of my period coming is so obvious to me I feel like I've been an idiot thinking I could be pregnant.

I tested today and got a BFN, I know I should of used the first wee of the day but I was so convinced I was. Its like nothing matters to me in that moment when I am waiting for the result to appear.

Everything is on hold for me right now.

Although I have strong feelings of a period coming I also have strong pregnancy symtoms too. I was even off my veg tonight which always happens when to me when pregnant.

Its probably in my mind.

I just wish it was Friday so I can move on from here.

Sorry for feeling sorry for myself, I dont even expect anyone to read this just had to get it out - again...

hi i feel the same i'm trying not to obsess about it and not to mention it to anyone because my work mates dont know were ttc coz my boss will prob freak ! and my hubby does'nt want it all planned etc , but inside i'm thinking about it every second and its really getting to me .
I also thought i was pregnant this month but getting a feeling that af is on her way but then again it could be pregnancy pains i got them first time ?
we've been trying for 15 months now with a miscarriage after 8 months so getting really p*ed off with it . plus my hubby is 36 so he's not getting any younger
soory to ramble but i (like you) just wanted to get it off my chest

please tink08 - ramble on

Its nice to hear someone else feels like me.

Like my dh he does not want to obsess about it and is not that bothered if we dont. He knows how much another baby means to me and he decided that he would like another too but is also happy if not.

36 is not old so dont worry about that.

I have not spoken about it to friends because one of our friends has been trying for three years now and so I dont want to upset her.

Have you have any checks? One of our other friends was trying for two years and all tests she has seemed normal until she had a laproscopy (sorry cant spell it) and they found very small amounts of scat tissue, they lazored it off and she fell the next month.

Its always worth getting checked out, it could be something so simple in the way.

Sorry to hear you had a mc , I had an early mc in April, literally weeks and that upset me so I cant imagine what it must feel like to know you are and they for it to end.

But I do know quite a few people who have including my mum and they all conceived again.. you've probably been told that lots but its true.

Wishing you lots of luck and come and speak if you want.

How do you feel today?

Last night I had such strong period cramps I was sure my period was about to start early but this morning I feel normal again even the funny taste in my mouth is not as obvious.

When are you due on? I am due on Thursday.

Just wanted to say - you are not alone. I have only been ttc for 3 cycles - but feel thoroughly miserable when I know af is on the way.
Please keep "ranting" as much as you like - its good to talk about it - and with people who feel the same xx

its crap isnt it?

i have been upset every month for at least the last 8 months when my period arrived.

its silly because my dh only agreed to see what happens recently but we dont use protection so it was possible at any time up to now.

i know now he can see i am really serious and we did agree to to start trying end of this year but my longing inside is taking over and i get so emotional seeing other babies. i think this month we went for it without talking about it but we both knew it iykwim.

Anyway when are you due on? Or are you waiting now for your next chance?

Hi everyone!
so glad I found this site. I am soo sad that my AF is coming any second, me and my husband are trying to have a baby and its all I can think about, and I swore that I was until I am feeling my period cramps as I type, I feel so silly that I really thought I was pregnant. I never felt the way I felt before, nausaus, dizzy bad headaches, and extremely tired, but I guess it was all in my head. I already bought a pregnancy test but am so afraid to take it and get a negative result. so I just keep looking at it and I keep running to the bathroom to check if I got my period, I am making myself crazy! ok... good luck to everyone,, and lets all keep venting to eachother!
