Default What's it all about being a woman!

Hiya

Feeling very down today and emotional, I know AF is coming as I have all the symptoms, although not due until 1 July.

My boobs have been hurting since ovulation and haven't stopped.

Sometimes I don't think it's fair being a woman.

Fed up, 9 months trying to conceive and nothing.

xx

Hi Emsie

I know what you mean. all seems unfair but id rather be a women than a man any day.

Dont dispair about the TTC, theirs lot of ladies on here been trying longer and then had success after almost giving up.

i know when its you its seems like a never ending rollercoaster of ups and downs, hopes and disappointments.

but like they say " Nothing worth having was ever easy" and i hope you start to feel positive again, my best wishes to you Emsie, i will watch your progess with hope for you.

((hugs))

Ah sending you hugs, I felt awful at the beginning of the week when af showed up, I was nasty to dh, nasty to my two lovely children and just wanted to crawl back under the duvet for the day!

We have been trying for almost two years now for number 3, this will be cycle 24! We keep trying as we keep thinking each cycle will be the one!

Have booked appointment tomorrow to see the doctor to see if I can start getting checked out (my other half has two children and tested before and was fine).

I hope you get lucky and get that BFP, looking on the bright side you are the right side of 40 so the odds are definitely in your favour.

Take care,
Love

Totally understand how you feel my lovely - I have been there myself.

However, my life has changed dramatically since I was your age. At 37 I was exactly the same as you - no kids, didn't think it would ever happen etc etc. Now at nearly 42 I have 2 little ones, Rhia 4 and James who will be 2 next week!

Hang in there, you may get lucky soon, just when you least expect it....

Hi Emsie

Big hugs to you, I know how you are feeling, I am 42 and we have been trying for 19 months, like you I thought it was never going to happen, but in May I had my bfp, it is still really early days, doesn't quite feel real, except I am now suffering from morning sickness. What I am trying to say is don't give up hope, you are still much younger than me, it will happen.
