Another broken month

Well, looks like my body still isn’t ready to support creating a baby. I was psyching myself up the past couple days, feeling every twinge and ache, then comparing it to pregnancy symptoms. But it’s all for nothing. I woke up this morning, 8 DPO, and my temperature was down below the coverline. That combined with all my normal PMS symptoms (cramps, irritability, upset tummy) tells me AF is coming tomorrow, at the latest. And so month two of not having a normal LP length. Why can’t it hold out for two extra lousy days??? And how long is it going to take to be back to normal? What if I don’t have a normal and I’m just incapable of being pregnant? Well, if that’s the case, then oh well. I’d rather know now than be disappointed month after month.

I’m just wondering how many months I should wait before seeing the doctor about it. And even if I see a doctor, what can she do?? Ugh. I know this is only the second month like this, but I was hoping it would have just been one month.
Oh well, my body has another month to correct itself. We’ll see how Cycle # 3 goes.

You just started trying. Some people have to try for years, which I'm sure you wont have to do but try not to get down just yet. :) It hasn't been long. I'm sure you will be pregnant in no time!

Hang in there! You havent been trying for very long, and most people get pregnant within the first year. It sometimes can just take awhile, even if nothing is wrong. It's a tough journey, but it is worth it!

Yeah the thing that makes it harder is that I'm charting...so it's only been two months, but that's like 60 days of keeping track!! hahaha so the month seems drawn out. Thanks though.... I gotta keep it in perspective.

Don't worry, Laura! Sometimes it just takes a while, even if you are perfectly healthy. I charted for more than a year, so I know how frustrating it can be. When I finally got pregnant with Kaylin, I had recently given up on charting!! Baby making involves a lot of waiting. Once you're pregnant it only gets worse. I never realized how long nine months could be until I was pregnant!

Oh I know... charting can be so stressful. I did that for a year and it drove me mad. I had to stop for my own sanity :)
