TTC and not feeling optimistic :(

[emmalouise90]

Me and my partner are currently trying to conceive but I'm not feeling very hopeful at the minute :( last month I was convinced I was pregnant so this month not at all symptom spotting! I have one DD who is almost 4 with my daughters dad (ex partner) I fell pregnant again but he wasn't good to us and completely messed my head up he didn't want the child so I went through with an abortion now I can't help but think I'll be punished and won't be able to conceive again silly I know but can't help but think I had my chance so just looking for a bit of support and baby dust:) me and my partner are really happy together and both want a baby together we both work and in a really good position plus since the split with my ex he took on my DD as her dad no longer bothers to see her any support appreciated xx

Hi emma sorry to hear you've went through such a rough time, having an abortion isn't easy and I think whatever sadness/guilt/grief you feel afterwards is punishment enough (not that anyone deserves it) so don't think you're being punished.

TTC can take up to a year for a lot of people so don't lose hope! Since you've been pregnant twice before it's clear you're able to so just keep at it and you'll get there. Try and Be optimistic if anything it will make you feel a hundred times better, good luck I hope all goes well xx

Be positive ..... Plenty of people in life have abortions for LOTS of different reasons and go onto have perfect healthy pregnancies!! Give it time x

Thanks you both xx

I have had DS after similar experience, the good thing is you know you are fertile.
