Hi all I'm new to mums net but thought it would be good to hear from some like minded women.

We've been trying to conceive for 6 months. I'm 28 DH is 32. I had an mmc 6 years ago with an ex (can't help feeling like it was a blessing in disguise).

Really I'm just looking for some hopeful feedback. I've just got AF and feeling incredibly deflated. When is it gonna happen????!!!

6 months isn't that long but feels like years!

I want to see a doctor but feel that I l would just be trying to convince myself something is wrong when it isn't.

Family and friends keep telling me not to stress and relax and it will happen bla bla bla.

I wish I didn't want children then I could enjoy my life instead of feeling like I'm always waiting for something that isn't happening 😞 I feel like everything is on hold until we get pregnant. DH is just as anxious as I am. Neither of us thought it would take 6 months when we'reborn fit and healthy.

Hi Newbird

I didn't want to read and run Flowers .

It's hard when AF turns up - I even knew last cycle wouldn't be our month but I was still upset when AF turned up on Friday.

I'm only on cycle 3 and I feel like I am going crazy. Our plan was to try in January so just keeping that in my mind at the moment. DH isn't to anxious yet because of that I think, he says this is just the practice months and to take it easy.

For this cycle I got CB ovulation kit and pre seed so going to give it everything - But I know if AF turns up this month I feel like I am going to be even more upset, ugh!

But I am going to relax this cycle, going to try and not symptom spot. Enjoy all the Christmas parties etc and enjoy ourselves.

Hope you feel better soon! Join some of the threads on here and chat, everyone is lovely and all going through the same x

I too had a missed misscarriage with first pregnancy. I didnt bleed at all and had al the right symptoms. Went to scan and found out baby had passed at 8. It was heartbreaking! the whole thing made me more desperate for kids. Like i wasnt too fussed before that first pregnancy but following the loss i needed a baby. Its very odd feeling to describe.. It took a year for us to fall pregnant again. And that litte boy is now 5 had no pregnancy complications and natural birth few days after due date.
We decided to try for another child when first was a year and half old. We fell pregnant the first month we tried and got another beautiful baby natural labour and healthy pregnancy!
I know its heart breaking and i know the feeling. But that misscarriage does not indicate in any way you'll have problems convieving or theres anythig wrong with either of you. Things are meant to be. And like u say that baby was probably a blessing in disguise as sad as it sounds. Keep trying and try not to worry
