Three months may not be that long in terms of indicating a problem but it sure as hell can feel like a long time to be waiting planning and symptom spotting. We are about to start actively TTC and I KNOW it is gonna make me a crazy person no matter how quickly it happens. Sending you a hug and baby dust. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bees-i-need-support#post-1295974 Sat, 21 Dec 2013 18:13:06 +0000 owlteach 1295974@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@court_schaeff: I totally had an emotional melt-down at 3 months, and again at 6 months where I hated everyone that was pregnant or had a baby....but both times it has calmed back down. Basically, these emotions aren't logical, they are what they are, and we're just along for the ride! Think of you and wishing you nothing but the best :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bees-i-need-support#post-1295695 Sat, 21 Dec 2013 12:48:44 +0000 lunarsongbird 1295695@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have never had that problem before and never thought I would when TTC. I thought to myself, "I'm never going to be that person." </p> <p>But now that we are TTC and a pregnant friend says, "Oh my gosh. I would trade with you in a minute. I have these headaches...and...and..."</p> <p>Oh, Really? :: growl :: It's definitely something I am going to have to work through. LOL</p> <p>Also, Mr. Bee is incredibly insightful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bees-i-need-support#post-1295640 Sat, 21 Dec 2013 12:03:10 +0000 mrskoloa 1295640@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@court_schaeff: I empathize with you completely. We have been trying for several cycles now, and it's so hard when you know you're doing everything right and it's just not happening... then one of your friends who tries for one cycle gets KO with twins! It's so frustrating. What's worse is when people know you're trying and are constantly plaguing you with questions about whether or not you're pregnant, and it sucks so hard to tell them "no" when you've been trying so hard. It makes me feel like a failure at the one thing my gender is biologically supposed to do to survive as a species. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bees-i-need-support#post-1295069 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 20:13:27 +0000 Snowdrop 1295069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@court_schaeff: you are not alone on this one don't worry about that! I haven't really got advice as sill impatiently ttc (month 5 but recently looking like there's going to be issues). I just try not to feel guilty now for any feelings I have. Don't want to burden my self with guilt on top of other feelings. At the moment my best friend is pg with her second, caught first month trying last month after getting ku first month with LO#1 too. When I think about that it makes me so mad and upset but then I tell myself it's normal to feel like this and it helps me pass over those feelings and on to just being happy for her and looking forward to meeting baby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bees-i-need-support#post-1292972 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 22:25:28 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1292972@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know how you feel. I can't watch Teen Mom anymore because I get annoyed and sad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bees-i-need-support#post-1292930 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 22:09:40 +0000 LovelyPlum 1292930@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I second everything that @Chastenet: said-TTC can be brutal, and what they don't tell you when you start is that it will test your patience and can become very un-fun very quickly. Everyone's journey is different, but that doesn't mean anyone's is really easier, even if it appears so from the outside. TTC can be very lonely, regardless of whether you get pregnant right away, get pregnant by accident, or have to wait for your time to come. </p> <p>Hang in there, lady. It's rough, but you're not alone. One thing that I had to do for me to get through our rough patches was completely give up Facebook-I was OBSESSING over everyone else's "perfect" lives, "perfect" babies, "perfect" TTC journeys, and the comparison was stealing my joy. It's hard not to compare, but it really is better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bees-i-need-support#post-1292905 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 22:03:49 +0000 mrbee 1292905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@court_schaeff: The one mantra that always serves me best is to focus on what I can control!</p> <p>There is no better recipe for insanity than to focus on things you can't control!! Been down that road far too many times... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bees-i-need-support#post-1292891 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 22:01:36 +0000 court_schaeff 1292891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: thats what everyone has told me, especially my mother! I need to relax and not think breathe sleep eat baby! Lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bees-i-need-support#post-1292882 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 21:59:49 +0000 court_schaeff 1292882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: I like the way you think! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bees-i-need-support#post-1292880 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 21:59:26 +0000 Bao 1292880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@court_schaeff: I know it's easier said than done but try and find some things to keep you busy! I went crazy when we started TTC baby #1, everything I did and thought was baby. The month I let go and relaxed and put my mind on other things was the month I got pregnant. Hang in there, soon it will be you with a baby in your belly :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bees-i-need-support#post-1292869 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 21:55:52 +0000 mrbee 1292869@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@court_schaeff: Yah it's brutal. If it's possible at all, it really does help to focus on other things!! Drink wine, eat sushi, travel... all the things you couldn't do if you were pregnant!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bees-i-need-support#post-1292855 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 21:51:35 +0000 Chastenet 1292855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>TTC has a nasty way of bringing out the green monster in you. You never care/notice and then you start trying, it becomes all consuming, and all you can see is babies everywhere! Just know that everyone's journey is different and it'll happen for you sooner or later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bees-i-need-support#post-1292853 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 21:51:18 +0000 court_schaeff 1292853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Granted I know three months is nothing compared to some people. I feel the same, that's all I see is baby bellies and it just hurts ): </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bees-i-need-support#post-1292843 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 21:48:30 +0000 mrbee 1292843@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@court_schaeff: It's just hard all around to see other people pregnant when you're struggling to get pregnant too!!</p> <p>I never realized how many pregnant women push strollers around until we had two miscarriages... and then all of a sudden, that's all I could ever see when we walked around our neighborhood.</p> <p>I hope things get better soon!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bees-i-need-support#post-1292840 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 21:46:11 +0000 court_schaeff 1292840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I need kicked off my high horse bees. I am on month three of TTC and I'm disgusted when I see ladies with children and/or baby bumps when a) weren't TTC b) don't want to be pregnant or c) aren't in a committed relationship.</p> <p>My younger sisters friend is 19 and is pregnant with 3rd baby by 3different guys... are you kidding me. I cant help but be angry because there are wonderful women out there who can't become pregnant.</p> <p>It kills me that people "accidently" get pregnant or get pregnant the first time having sex and I've been trying to get pregnant and NOTHING! Am I just a b**** or do other people think this too?? </p> <p>Thank you for listening and for not judging. RANT OVER </p>
