Ttc no 4 after short break of ttc for 17 months

Sorry for long post dont really have anyone that will listen.
So just a bit of background about myself. Me and my hubby have 3 amazing children 14.12.6 we decided we wanted another baby in December 2016 to complete our family.
We started trying and after 17 months of nothing happening my hubby decided he wanted us to stop because I was becoming obsessive about it so we did and I got the coil fitted. I have had the coil In now about 5-6 months.
We have now decided after a little break we are ready to try again.

Im on my period now and will finish tuesday and i have an appointment to get the coil removed on friday.

Is there anything I can take to possible help me fall as with my older 2 we didn't try we just fell and my youngest we tries for 6 months.
I've been and bought folic acid. My periods are a bit of all over they use to be 28 days but sometimes AF can arrive 5-7 days early.

No advice, just wanted to wish you good luck ✨✨✨ I'm TTC #2! We took a break after trying for 5 months unsuccessfully, this is our first month at a second attempt. We already have a 7 year old!

DP and I used his and hers Preganare vitamins. We fell pregnant the first month of using them, after TTC for 4 months.

Try some COQ10. I've been told it works to improve the quality of your eggs. You just take one a day.
I've been taking them when I remember ttc baby no3 good luck xx

Hi @sazzle3 , no advice unfortunately but just wanted to say good luck!! I'm also trying for #4, have DC11, 9 and 7 already. It has been on and off and emotional roller coaster with my DH changing his mind on almost weekly basis, whether he really wants no.4 or its far too much for him! I'd love another child but I'm worried I am getting too old to conceive... just turned 42.
How old are you? Keep positive and look after your general health. I'm taking multi vitamin and extra folic acid and Agnus castus to regulate my cycle.
Fingers crossed for you!!

I'm just really hoping we won't be trying for 17 months again. I really don't want to start tracking ovulation and stuff because I come obsessive over it last time but was think with me getting the coil removed next Friday I might just for the 1st few months to make sure I'm ovulating. Then stop and let nature take its course xx

@Ameliel you never know we might both be lucky and fall pretty fast. We I'm hoping so are you going to be doing any tracking xx

Good luck and welcome back @sazzle3 I'm in a similar situation dc aged 18,9 and 7 and been ttc#4 for 18 cycles so far. I'm older though at 39. Did not think it would take this long!

Ive got COQ10, DHA, using opks (can't temp due to chaos!) And I tried conceive plus for the first time this month.

sazzle3 · 20/10/2018 09:21
