Ready to give up:(

I'm so ready to give up on trying to get pregnant. Husband and I have been trying for 17 months now with nothing. This month I had all the signs possible and got four very faint positives so I thought. Maybe I just wanted to see them so bad. Then today I started spotting a couple of hours ago. Hasn't been any only when I wipe which isn't normal for me but I'm sure i will start fully before the day is over.  Especially since I am cramping. I'm tired of every month doing everything right and nothing happening! This would be husbands and I first child and we want this so bad but it's starting to really get to me! Doctors won't help for another two months! Just needed to vent... Not really any questions here.

It is really hard sometimes....and unless a person has been through it....they really don't understand the emotional rollercoaster, the dashed hopes, and the feeling of failure.

Know that you are not alone!  There are tons of women who are going through similar things and sometimes it just helps to vent! Do it as often as you need to and know that this community is here for you!

There is hope and options out there.

Take Care and Best Wishes! :)

My husband and I have been TTC for 11 years. We have had 3 MC and 3 failed IUI 3 failed adoptions and emotional foster care cases. We gave up all hope because I just emotionally couldn't take it anymore. We took a two year break from trying and have a new doctor who was willing to do ivf. I had my first ET (embryo transfer) dec 15, 2013. I am hoping it is positive. Don't ever give up. Find a different doctor that will help you. Go out of town on Mother's Day.   I seem to have a bad day every Mother's Day.there are several options you can try.
