How can I overcome these false pregnancies?

Question

Hubby and I have been TTC for almost a year now and every month I'm always sure that I'm pregnant, but I never am. I get all of the symptoms and my period ends up being like 4-6 weeks late but then it comes as soon as I take a HPT and see the negative results. I try so hard not to get excited when my period is late as I'm irregular anyway, but it's just so hard. I'm ready to have a baby and I'm really looking forward to having one of my own. Everyone of my friends were pregnant all at the same time and all just gave birth within a month of each other. Except my one friend who is ready to pop anyday now (she was due 8/26).

How the h*ll am I supposed to stay calm and not think about getting pregnant? These "false pregnancies" are killing my husband and me. I could really use some advice from anyone who's been where I am.

Don't give yourself extra stress.. usually when you stop trying you get pregnant within 2-3 months, or so I have heard. Extra stress could lessen the possibility of becoming pregnant :)

Good luck and I hope I helped

Answer 3

i know it's hard but you have to pray and ask God for strength he is the only source to your situation b/c we have been getting bfn too so let's pray for each other ok may God bless y'all in the future

Sometimes it really takes a while. For what its worth they do say being around pregnant women increases your chances but it could be wrong... its worth the effort though. :) Do you know when you ovulate? That would help greatly! I have seen some women on here that have tried for years and years and FINIALLY they concieved! Some even waited 10 years but they DID concieve. I really hope it happens for you shortly. I know it does a number on your emotions and on your guys emotions if they are really looking forward to your little one. Try doing all the healthy things too. And I know you said you cant be calm but really if you and your husband say its going to happen at the right time and we will wait till it happens then you will become calmer and you and your husband wont be going through h**l every month. It happens all the time... you are stressed about getting preg but cant then once you give up your body relaxes and it just happens!
