OK thats it I give up

My period has not come, I am 3 days late...so I took a test and get a neg.  It just makes me feel so yucky.  Where is my period?   My temps are staying up and my cervix is high.  I am thinking of just quitting.  I really can take the constant rejection.  I usually have a 25 day cycle and today is day 28.  I changed my diet and went from using tampons to pads last month.  If you are a tampon user you know what a sacrifice that is.  I don't know if that could have changed it the length or not.  It seems that my husband is pretty mych uninterested in sex anymore because it has to be so scheduled (he works nights and I am a teacher and work days)  Which as any woman knows will more her feel like she is unattractive.  I have gotten to the point that I am so fed up and tired of being disappointed that I GIVE UP.  My doctor is acting like...well just keep trying and although we have only been trying for 6 months it seems like I get my hopes up for nothing.  Don't get me wrong I still want a baby dearly, but I don't think it is going to happed.  I had a D&C last year for uterine polyps and what either could have been a ruptured polyp or a miscarriage in August.  We are told for so long "don't get pregnant", and now that I can I can't.  Gosh, I just want to cry, I am so sick of starting over, and getting let down.  Thanks for listening.

Hi there, I can totally understand what you are going through. My dh & I been ttc for 8.5 yrs.. We did 5 IUIs and 3 ivfs plus 2 cancelled ivfs.. I accepted the fact that I couldnot get pregnant on my own, but the one thing that is hard for me to accept is the fact that after gotten pregnant, my body is rejecting it..so this is really the worst thing that could happen. I know that some women they cannot conceive on their own but they can get pregnant thru fertility meds and go on & have a healthy baby.. some women they can get pregnant on their own but for some reasons they cant carry the baby full term..so they need a medical intervention.

for me, i have those 2 problems.. after having my 2nd m/c, my RE will finally do some testings to me and also my dh so hopefully they will find something wrong and they can get corrected. Why am i telling you this? There's always hope..... maybe not now..maybe not tomorrow, but life sometimes its hard. But God give us so much in our life. In His time, He will bless us.. we just have to be patience, I know it is so hard, especially when you are dealing with this.

Just so you know, theres a lot of wonderful women in this forum.. they give great advises and support to each other.. hang in there and do not give up hope... as long as we live.. theres hope..

Goodluck and best wishes...

I can't say that it gets any easier from one month to the next. I have been TTC for 19 months now. I had a miscarraige about 1 year ago. I was on Depo Provera for 8 long years. When I started the shot, I knew that it would be a long time before my periods would be normal and I would ovulate again after coming off the shot. When we finally decided that it was time to start trying for a second child, its like my body won't cooperate. I am hopeful since this is the first month I can clearly see that I have ovulated, but even then I am second guessing myself. Did I take my temp at the same time everyday, did I take it in the same way? I know I ovulated but can't tell if I am 12 dpo or 10 dpo since I had two dips pretty close together and then definite surge. If I am 12 dpo then I had a funny temp dip at 5 dpo, could be implantation but not likely.

Anyway, my point is you are in the right place. We are all in the same shoes and when the going gets tough these girls are some of the best support crutches that you could ever ask for.
