Natural conception after over a year of trying...

Hi

I'm hoping to hear some stories of people managing to conceive naturally after 12 cycles or more?
We're on the waiting list for fertility investigations, but I'm still really hoping it will happen naturally while we're waiting... Am I being unrealistic?

notta - I go through times where I'm on here a lot and then times where I feel like I'm thinking more about it so don't want anything to do with this site. I stopped doing the buses almost a year ago, after 6 months of it and seeing so many people changing as they got pregnant straight away I started lurking on other threads.

20 months here. I don't really know why it took so long because child number 2 was very quick but I guess it's just one of those things

Hi Sammy, we tried for 2.5 years and got pregnant naturally. This was about one and a half years after my laparoscopy plus fairly poor morphology which still put us in the unexplained category. I never relaxed. I think that the pregnancy might have cured me as I got pregnant with DC2 after just one month of trying. Good luck with it, infertility is a horrible, lonely experience and i found it brought the worst out in me in terms of jealousy of others' pregnancies. Really hope it works out for you soon x

Camel - that's exactly how I feel - then I feel guilty for not being happy for people!
Out of interest do they offer IVF for unexplained? X

Hi,

My best friend has today told me of her pregnancy. We have both been ttc but insuccessfully. Her husband very low motility rate and very low morphology. 18 months it's taken them but finally got their BFP!

Lots of luck

sammylou we were unexplained and had ivf - we went private but could've had it on nhs if we'd been more patient. All DH's tests came back better than perfect, so they thought the problem was with me but never found out what it was. I had regular periods and every cycle they tested, I was ovulating. I had slightly low AMH, but during the cycle I responded way better than I should've given those levels.

Thanks Moggle - I'm getting ahead of myself as so far we've only had dh SA and my blood tests - all were fine. His counts were high too except morph which was slightly low in first test but normal in repeat.
I'm just panicking that they won't find anything to treat and we will never end up with a baby ??
