Going into only my second cycle and feeling a bit meh, was definitely naive to how long it may take. Im 30, partner is 33.

How long did it take you and what worked for you?

How do I survive the emotionally draining process of tcc?

It's an absolute mindfield isn't it!

Just have sex as often as possible to cover all bases!!

So sorry to hear what you've been through, I feel like misscarriage/chemical pregnancies etc are not talked about enough as its kind of the norm to keep so quiet about pregnancy in the early days.

Congratulations on your pregnancy - I really hope you can relax enough to enjoy it and that everything goes well❤️

I had a shit show of a cycle this month, first month ttc of course. Period is usually 27/28 days but was 25 /26 the last months. I've only properly came on today after some spotting, and 30062727 negative tests, day 32. Stupid body.

I conceived first cycle trying, second since stopping the pill after 12 years. I miscarried though. That was Xmas day.

I've just found out I'm pregnant again yesterday after having my period back 19th Jan.

Obviously anxious that my issue is carrying and not conceiving.

I'm 31. Partner is 35.
