How Do I Start This Off With A New Outlook And Positive Attitude…ttc Again?
It took us 15 months to conceive our beautiful daughter! It was and still is unexplained as to why it took a young healthy couple that long to conceive. We even had my husbands little swimmers tested and they are above average quality actually. I was tested for everything that could cause a problem and I was free and clear of any problems, thank god.
It took us 5 months to conceive the second time but I had a chemical pregnancy and miscarried at 5 weeks 2 days.
So my question is:
How do I go into TTC again with a fresh out look and positive attitude. Right now all I can think of is not getting pregnant for another 9 years or getting pregnant and having another miscarriage or it taking forever only to have a miscarriage! I am not ready to give up, but im also feeling really hopeless, anxious and a little nervous!
HELP! I know a lot of women on here have felt this way, how did you move on and look toward the future?

I know how you feel! Really, the times I have gotten pregnant were when I just wasn’t trying. Even though we “were,” I kind of just didn’t take all of the measures to make sure and have sex at the exact time, etc.
I know this is kind of weird, but try doggy style.. haha. I am kind of shy to say that, but every time I have gotten pregnant, that position seemed to be key. Hey, it worked for me. Just a suggestion…..
As far as emotionally, I can definitely relate!! Just know that you ARE able to conceive, and you WILL conceive again! Miscarriage at some point is common for women. I know SO MANY, including myself (under rare circumstances) who have gone through it. It is easier to be positive about it once you know you have had a child and CAN do it. It may be more difficult to stay positive for people who have never conceived and are having problems, you know?
So, knowing it WILL happen when the time is right, just have fun with it. I always loved having sex with my husband and not worrying about avoiding pregnancy. That’s the best!
Good luck! Hang in there! It’ll happen!
I would love to help more but I am still trying to figure out on how to conceive number 1…the best thing that I can suggest is to enjoy, be blessed and concentrate on the child that you already have….then you are less likely to think and stress about baby number two….if you are stressed and not thinking about it, it may happen naturally without you even realizing it and then you will be even more blessed with number 2…Best of luck to you…
Hey hun!
I really wish I could give you a good asnwer here, my only answer is – you are not alone feeling like this!
It took 10 months to concieve my little girl, we then lost her at 19 weeks pregnant. I’m now on 2nd cycle since losing her.
You could try planning a holiday or something that will take your mind off of it?
Believe it or not I come on here a lot to take my mind of me TTC and try and help advise others that are etc.
Feel free to add me and email etc, we can go through it together – oh and I think the reason it took so long to concieve before it stressing over it, I did the same, had 3 early miscarriages, gave up and was pregnant 14 days later.
Just TRY and think of other things, just remember you WILL be pregnant soon I promise!
Good luck TTC hun, Sorry about your miscarriage. Bloody awful things!! xxx
Hey hun! My advice to you would be to have sex with ur hubby for fun and enjoy your time together. Do romantic things u kno?! TTC is SOOOOO flippin hard on us! And when it doesn’t happen right away it makes us so stressed out. So I would make sure that you have sex around your fertile time but try not to think about it so much. ITS SO HARD NOT TO THINK ABOUT IT! For me personally having sex with hubby turned into a chore and it wasn’t even romantic anymore. So try and be as romantic as possible!!! I wouldn’t temp unless u were just trying to find our fertile time b/c I feel like its a cnstant reminder of TTC every morning. Anyways hun BEST OF LUCK!!!!!!! KEEP ME POSTED!!!!!!!!!! ILL PRAY U GET A BFP SOON!!!!!!!!!!! TONS OF BABY DUST!!!!
