HELP How do you all stay hopeful month after month? Hopeful UPDATE
So it has been over a year. Since Sept./Oct 2012. We found out in Nov. '12 I have high FSH. I did a couple IUIs on low FSH months and have been trying naturally since.
Finally just got my AMH tested last month and it was 0.16 so very low. My FSH was 9.1 though. But I have heard the AMH is more important anyway? Is that right?
I am 36, the few times I have had FSh tested last fall/winter the numbers were:
5
18
7
14
all between Oct.12 and Jan.13
Tried 2 IUIs during that time.
Just focusing on diet and trying naturally since Jan. 13
I am eating healthy, taking wheatgrass, tablets, yoga, acupressure,etc.
How do you all stay hopeful month after month not getting pregnant??
I am trying not to focus on this too much so it doesn't take away from my current kids, you know? So I don't do OPK, just temp and I don't use Preseed, we just BD every other day or 2 days during fertile times.
Also, it is why I am not on here that often, it is harder to think about it all the time.
It is discouraging though and it is hard to know whether I just just try not to think about it at all and if a miracle happens, great, but in the meantime try to mentally move on and think about my family being complete. I have started getting rid of half the baby clothes/gear and maternity because it is hard keep storing that stuff and seeing it all the time.
Maybe there is a tiny part of me that believes I can be one of those women who gets rid of all the baby stuff, then all of a sudden ends up pregnant!
Anyway, what works for all of you to keep your spirits up? Do you think about it/not think about it?
Do you any of you feel that your focus on another baby made you miss time with your current ones???
