Hi.
I'm 31 and ttc#1 for about 6 months now. My cycles are quite long (40-43 days) and I have suffered for years with recurrent thrush infections (if that makes any difference?)
I know that 6 months isnt a super long time (especially as thats not 6 cycles for me) but I went to see the nurse today just to have a chat over my options as my husband and I are really keen to start a family. She was really kind and after chatting suggested referring us to a gynae because if there is something wrong we would want to know straight away so as not to prolong it too much.
My husband and I are both fit (ish!), non smokers and we dont drink huge amounts, but for some reason I just have a gut feeling that something isnt right and I'm worried that my problems in the past with infections etc might be a sign that somethings just not functioning properly.
I'm an only child and all my close friends are either pregnant or with their 1st child so I just dont feel too comfortable speaking to them about this. My husband is great and we do talk lots about this, but I would just like to have some female input like what to expect at the appointment, and any tips from anyone who has been in a similar boat?
The more I think about it the more I realise just how scary this whole time is :(
