Have your attitudes changed as the time taken to conceive increases?
I have noticed a big difference in my attitude as my tic journey drags on and on and was wondering if this is normal and if anyone else has experienced this?
- i used to be a POAS addict. Stupidly so, I'm talking 2 tests a day from 6dpo. Loved it. Spent ages analysing the sticks, looking at hpt images on the net. Not any more. Not testing till AF is late, and even then only if temps are high. I have no interest in POAS at all. Cant deal with the disappointment, and just have no desire to test whatsoever
- 2ww symptons. Used to analyse every twinge, spent hours googling, felt real hope when i had a symptom. Not any more. I have had virtually every 2ww symptom at some point this year, but no pregnancy. JUst don't take notice anymore, had some cramping last night - but it did not raise a single flicker of hope in me. Also felt slightly nauseous the last 2 nights, and again, not even the faintest hope was raised in me.
- the GD. Im starting to feel like i have significantly less gd. Of course i still want a girl, i'd love a girl, but i can honestly say that at the moment i think i wouldn't have any disappointment if i had a boy. Heck, i wouldn't care if i gave both to an orang-utans, as long as it was healthy! LOL
The shift has been gradual over the last 2 months, but hit home and cemented this cycle.
Has anyone else felt this? Is it normal? Will it get better? worse?
so glad that i have somewhere that i can talk about this....Mummy to DS10 who is the light of our world

Please be a sticky little bean, we have wished and hoped for you for so long xo
Our family welcomed a in May 2013 and thats ok, we're head over heels in love with him and feel blessed to be honoured with 2 sons
January 2014 - A little surprise that went to heaven before we could meet
October 2014 - Officially swaying for one last little bundle and wishing and hoping its a pink one
April 2015 - All our dreams have miraculously come true, our sway worked and our family will be complete with the little girl joining us in October this year

I think its perfectly normal - we set out with an idea gender in mind and then as time goes on you think do u know what just a healthy baby of any sex will do... i think its natural to feel that way and to jut want to be pregnant but i think those that are swaying if they do relax their sway and then get pg and dont get the desired gender they might always think "what if"
I wish you all the best TTC. XXX

I think that's totally normal and I for sure felt that way. The month I got pregnant I would have bet my left arm I wasn't pg. If anything, I think it's beneficial for pink.
Good luck Lassie!!!!! Questions?? Check out the NEW and improved Complete Index !!!

I'm right there with you! And I was surprised to find my husband has changed his sentiments as well. We want a baby!
I also can't believe how much $$ I've spent to POAS!

Yes and no. I almost feel like God is punishing me for having GD, but for some reason I can't let it go. I have been at this 14 cycles, and I know I am out this cycle. I am seeing an RE now, have to have an IUI next month and I still have GD. I wish it would just go away. I pray to not have it.
I definitely do not over analyze my symptoms anymore. My POAS addiction has greatly subsided, but honestly I know with in 3 days if I am pg or not. I feel more hopeless now then I ever did in the beginning of this long journey.

oh please don't feel that way hun - your not being punished....everything happens for a reason, just believe thats whats meant to be, will be
seeing the RE (I'm assuming that's a fertility specialists? the terminology in australia is different!) should give you some new found hope, DH and I had testing done and we both got the all clear, so thats given me a new found optimism that it IS going to happen - hopefully you'll start feeling that soon too
fingers crossed the iui does the trick for you and that pretty soon you'll be getting your BFP!Mummy to DS10 who is the light of our world

That's how I feel too... it took me 10 months to conceive my loss and the majority of the time I wasn't even really swaying.. and then month 11 I got my rainbow baby and BFP in month 12.. and so, I felt so greatful after I conceived right after my loss.. The GD started to go away and I thought.. a baby.. a third member of my family... sweet little bundle of blue would have been just as cherished and loved and I would have known that he would be meant to be without a doubt! I watched videos of DS#2 and my heart just melted, I was just happy to have a HEALTHY baby, and never had I taken pregnancy as heavy as a task as I do now. It's a HUGE blessing to conceive. A long scary, sometimes slow, sometimes fast, rollercoaster that has all the ups and downs and twists and turns..but in the end it's worth it..
ALL OF IT Was Worth It!
And Lassie babe, I just know your turn is coming...I FEEL IT!Last edited by Butterfly Spirit; August 24th, 2012 at 08:32 PM.
