Agree!
I think it's more about giving people that are trying to do the same thing a way to meet, talk, and support each other.
My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for over a year now. We took a little time off (we were having some issues and needed to work on our relationship) but now we are doing good and I can't wait to have children with him. Its disappointing to see all these people getting pregnant around me (and some that don't need to be having children), but I am sure when the time is right it will happen.
Just got off birth control... first period and horrifyingly painful cramps. Ugh, is this normal? I've never had it this bad, even before birth control.
I have been trying to get pregnant for 18months now. its frastrating but i understand why its taking so long. i was on the depo injection for like 6 injections and it needs time to get off my systerm. I just hoped i would fall pregnant quickly because my cycles were always regular, even while i was on depo. I want a baby sooooo soooo sooo bad.
good luck. been there, done depo, waited 6 years!!!
Here we go again. First session after the surgery. At least they found something. Let's hope AI works this time!!
Did it work?

Haha...I've now been in infertility treatment (with a specialist) for 17 months. I've had many IUIs and two rounds of IVF. So far, nothing. I'm frustrated beyond words, but I appreciate you asking.

I'm from South African and also had a long battle ttc. See if you can find a book from a lady called Tertia Albertyn - So close. She also has a blog,(www.tertia.org) last time I checked it. She had at least 10 IVF's! Good luck, I know its a difficult road you're on. I'm in two minds whether or not I want to get myself into TTC again. Waiting (im)patiently for 5 years was not fun.
My Gynea recommended me to a fertility clinic after many months of TTC, we should be doing our first iui with menopur this month so i am very excited!!! I will love to get my BPF!!!
My fiance and I started trying to get pregnant last month and I can already feel the stress of wondering...were we successful. Before we began, I went to the doctors and got checked out. All systems are a go. Now is the play and wait game. How do you get through the month without thinking about it to much. I'm trying to focus on other things, but the more I do, the more my mind drifts back to the "what if". my biggest fear is that I'm forcing my body to respond to something that isn't there or hasn't happend yet. Suggestions ladies...how do you cope with the 2 week wait???
All you can really do is keep your mind occupied. If you think about it too much, you can get symptoms of pregnancy. Which would be a major let down if you weren't. So do anything. Make sure you stay busy, and try not to think about it. I know it's hard, though.
After 2 years of trying to conceive, finding out I wasn't able to on my own, going through 8 rounds of fertility treatments, undergoing major surgery, and suffering from 1 loss, I am happy to say that I finally got pregnant and just gave birth to my gorgeous baby girl on Sept. 22nd! SHe is the love of my life and proof that miracles really do happen! So, I can say that this dare is complete. Now I share my story all the time and feel compelled to help others. I have learned a LOT about ovulation, fertility treatments, all that jazz...so feel free to message me if anyone would like an opinion on anything...not that I'm a doc or anything, but I feel like sharing my knowledge may help someone the way that I was helped! Now I have to lose the baby weight...onto my next dare! Good luck to all!! BABY DUST!!!!
Congrats!
After two miscarriages one in Sept and one in Aug, I'm not sure if I can get pregnant. I'm only 20. I shouldn't be having this problem. I want to be pregnant before I'm 21. I have four months.... And yes, I know I'm young but I'm also ready. My boyfriend and I both want this.
It baffles me sometimes on hard people have to try to get pregnant and then you hear horror stories of one-night-stand pregnancies all the time =\
losing weight may help.. Try to get pregnant for 5 years.. The natural way and with hormones.. nothing is working.
A friend of mine tried for just as long and nothing worked... she was ready to give up then tried acupuncture and it worked for her... twice... have you tried that?

It took my sister 3 and half years to get pregnant, she purchased this book called "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" They have a web sit you can look it up on Google. If your not already using this type of method, it was a great help to her. You track your temperatures every morning, and your cervical fluid. Depending on the consistency of your fluid, it can tell you if you are fertile or not, and if you are ovulating. Good luck!! I hope this helps!

My husband and I only just started trying to have a baby 6 months ago. Every month that it takes is more frightening. My two older sisters took about 2 to 3 years to get pregnant. So I'm scared that it will take that long for me as well. I'm charting my morning temperatures and fluid. Its helped me know when I ovulate (if I ovulate that is)so at least I know when the best time to try is, and I feel like my husband and I are giving a good try every month. But its hard because I don't ovulate every month... I'm Still hopeful it will all work out.
MY husband and I have been trying to have a baby for about 17 months now. I had my tubes untied April 2010, and we have been trying since then, without any positives.. nothing.. My husband had to be checked out, to make sure his swimmers were working, and they are great, before we could get my tubes untied( our other two chidlren have a different biological father) after my tubes were untied, I had to HSG's to make sure my tubes were working and open, and both of the test, I have had no blockages. Im not sure why this isnt happening for us yet.. ITs so discouraging month after month. I keep putting my life on hold, and I have gained 17 lbs from all the stress of trying these past 17 months.. Im had been afraid to work out, in fears of not knowing I was PG and having a MC. so now I have decied to just concentrate on losing that weight and getting pregnant.. I hope it happend soon. since nothing is wrong, My hormones have been tested and they are fine too.. /sigh
I just finished three cycles of IUI with my spouse, which were unsuccessful. I need to have at least one surgery, which I have decided to do now instead of waiting until after I have a child. My focus now is on completing that surgery and healing process, while also figuring out what is the next step in trying to concieve.
I am currently starting the process for artificial insemination. We should be having our first iui in mid to late September!
I want my Fiance to get Pregnant not me, our goal is to have her pregnant by the end of this year, since we are a couple we our going through the sperm bank for our donor. She enjoys being pregnant, and we have one son a five years old soon to be six in June. I am adopting him once her, and I are married, she asked me to, and I am happy to, I love kids! :-D
I bet the cost a pretty penny. Well deserved to have a great loveing family. Thanks for sharing! and Good luck!
The weekends are always hard... Godfather's pizza called to me! But I am back on the wagon today. I've been half-assing it so far (as far as exercise goes). Losing weight directly impacts my fertility, I am so I can't face that and take it more seriously!
why? it is necessary part of the reproductive cycle so no period, no baby
Im pretty sure SilverOne means that when AF shows, obviously her tries for the month didn't work. Everytime AF arrives it is proof she isn't pregnant. I'm sure it was just a frustrated anger post. Most women understand that AF is a necessary evil.

This is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Twelve years into this infertility crap, I can tell you that all the "daring" in the world cannot make your body do what it does not want to do.
