Do you find ttc exciting or stressful?

I found it to be both at times !

For me it was mostly exciting, but we got Cora on the first try and Erin on the second so, I didn't really have *time* to be overly stressed.

Although, TTC Erin was more stressful simply because I was so afraid of another loss.

For me it's both. I just want it to happen already. I am at the point where I feel like I will NEVER get to be PG again

Both! Something tells me this time around will be more stressful though.

Definitely exciting... I think it'll be the pregnancy part that stresses me out this time around.

Perfectly phrased my sentiments.

I think it's exciting! But that's prolly b/c I got pg w/both girls on the 1st try (and we're weren't even ttc our angel), so I didn't have time to get stressed.
If I don't get pg this cycle, I might start to get a little stressed tho.

I am the odd one out. I say neither! I am not stressed about it because I just think it will happen when it happens. Its something I have no "real" control over. Even if my body co-operates and ovulates when it should I still don't get pregnant. I am no longer excited, I think the excitement left about 3 years ago. Now I just hold on too a little bit of HOPE instead.

Sorry, its just the fact that we have been trying for nearly 6 years. Sometimes I think we have to go into this mode to survive.

Well, I guess I am still in the excited stage. Our son was an *oopsie*, then I was on the pill for almost 9 years, then we got pregnant the first cycle of actually trying last fall, and then this is our first cycle trying after our m/c.

I may have different feelings if I am still trying in a few months or longer, but for right now, I'd have to say still exciting!
