Ttc #1 I was 90% sure I would get a BFP this month, having so many symptoms and AF was due on the 8th. I wasn't getting any positives at home so i talked to me doctor and got a blood test...well that was a BFN. Still waiting for AF....

How many of you have gone through this multiple times? what have you done to cheer yourself up?

it took my mom 2 years to get pregnant and my one sister can't have kids, this is making me so nervous I will be the same.....my PA doesn't want to do any testing until we try for 3 more months....should I go see an OBGYN?

If it makes you feel better to see an OB GYN, do it. If nothing else, you'll start establishing a relationship with one so that when you're PG you'll be set. How long have you been trying? Most docs want to see at least 6 months (or more) before they take any action. If you are able to get more opinions, do so. If it doesn't work with your insurance you may have to wait. Best wishes. I hope you get your bfp and a healthy pregnancy soon. Waiting is awful!

It took me two years to get pregnant withy first, but then I went on to be pregnant five more time. That's howit is sometimes. I know a lady that TTC for ten years, finally got pregnant, then had three in three years.

It's really not uncommon for a couple to try for 6-12 months and be healthy and fertile. Just that the chances every cycle aren't extremely high and there are a lot of factors involved.

Do you know how many DPO you got the blood test? I got a blood test on 8dpo with my #4, got a BFN.... 3 days later I got a BFP on a urine test. I got the blood test too soon.

If you were due the 8th then you either ovulated late and your period is late also because of that, or you ovulated late and conceived and that is why you are having signs and a negative test because it was too early to get a positive. Or it's possible for some reason you haven't ovulated yet, in that case, keep BD'ing just in case.

It is your first month trying so I would not worry! Both my daughters were not planned but in between them we tried to get pregnant and it took me 4 MONTHS! Then I had a MC so you never know. With my daughters it was literally one time unprotected and BAM I'm pregnant. Let's hope with #3 I'm that lucky again! Keep trying and keep your head up - it will happen. And go to an obgyn as well - that way you can establish a relationship like someone said and they can give you advice on what to do while TTC, etc. That is what I just did and I had a great appt and am so looking forward to October!
