I was 38 I think when we started trying, already have DD who was 15 then. Took me just over two years, nothing shown on tests but we hadn't had sperm analysis or anything in depth. Just gynea scan and bloods.
I'd had a couple of chemicals and one early miscarriage at 5.5 weeks then a few months after that managed it and gave birth at 40.
Was completely consumed with it all tbh. I tackled it like a mission, healthy as I could be and I'm not a huge exercise person so a lot of yoga and certain vitamins, very rarely had alcohol and little caffeine etc etc. Same for him.
Did a rough version of the SMEP as much as possible while temping.
Thing is I had too much time on my hands as had less work a lot of the time.
I decided no matter how many false starts, I wouldn't give up and tried to keep that determined feeling. Impossible to not think about it or relax or whatever advice was dished out.
It's possibly l think for me, an age thing, lower quality eggs so more chances of things not developing correctly due to abnormalities there's nothing to do about that so just a waiting game until a good egg gets fertilised and then hope for the best, it's all worth it if it goes to plan of course.
So hard though. Every day drags,let alone the months.
Hope you have success soon. I enjoyed every second of pregnancy (even though so so sick) and having my lovely DD now so that feels like forever ago now.
