DH has a low sperm count. Got help from the Nhs to conceive DD. She is gorgeous and I thank whoever is out there for her everyday. Been trying naturally for number two since DD's birth 3 years ago. It's not happened. We have plans to move abroad (which would have been delayed if I got pregnant) and me and DH have just turned 40. This month was our last month of trying. We tried really hard. Anyway I have just found a tampon stuck from my last period about 3 weeks ago. Fished it out. Horrible, yuck, revolting. No symptoms other than a dreadful pong. But now i feel so sad and am crying. All I wanted was one last proper 'go' at getting pregnant. That tampon would have sitting there as a substantial plug meaning even less sperm would have been present to do their job. Now because of some stupid teenage mistake any already slight chance of getting pregnant is even tinier.
It is time for me to give up hope. Hand in my notice at work and start a new life in a sunshine country. It'll just be the three of us, which in one way will be fab. But it hurts like hell though.
