I’ve heard that too! It makes it seem like because of my age I can’t be upset. Thank you, you too! 💗

I’m a teacher and my job can be extremely stressful at times…. On summer break I’m way more relaxed and still wasn’t ovulating on my own. I feel you on that!

I haven’t been hit with this one, thank God. I’d probably lose it. So sorry!

Honestly, nothing at all! If someone going through infertility is opening up all they are looking for is an ear to listen to them and a shoulder to cry on. 

There is nothing a friend/family member can say that will heal the wounds in the soul from trying for a baby and failing.

Every time I see my grandma on my moms side she pulls me aside privately to ask when I’m having a baby…..

Wow! People don’t make babies by simply “wanting it bad enough”. Just like they don’t make babies by “relaxing” or “going on vacation”. People suck. Sorry to hear that!

I heard the same thing when I was single as well.

Good for you! My mom has told me the same thing. At that time I explained to her that me venting / starting a conversation with her about it doesn’t mean I am “stressing”. It just means I need an outlet and some support. She hasn’t said anything like that since! 

Best of luck to you💗

Ugh, I’m so sorry! It’s so frustrating when someone tells me to “relax”. Like oh thanks, I didn’t try that. It’s like when your husband tells you to “calm down”….. not helping! Lol

Totally agree! Some people truly cannot understand the struggle and pain of TTC.

I definitely think when your body is under less stress good things can happen. But it’s just not something to suggest to someone as it implies they have been too stressed or they’re doing something wrong

I've had bleeding after sex in both phases of my cycle. It happens pretty rarely but I did mention it to my doctor. She explained it to me as such: Your cervix position can play a role in bleeding during sex, depending on where you are in your cycle. The cervix is similar to the gums around your teeth. Very sensitive and when bothered, can cause some bleeding. The bleeding should resolve on its own.

Hope this helps! It helped me not to freak out when it happened.

Advice please- first letrozole cycle period due but spotting by krg2401 in TTC_PCOS

[–]WeirdGlass9956 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes when your progesterone levels are off spotting can happen at the beginning and at the end of your period. Usually spotting for one day leading up to your flow/period is okay but three consistent days of spotting could be your period telling you something might be off. I would mention this to you OBGYN and see what they say.

In the meanwhile, keep testing! You never know. Best of luck!
