I’m starting to panic that something is wrong, my husband and I have been ttc since January and nothing has happened. I’m 27 and he is 34, we have fallen pregnant before and quickly. Has anyone got success stories of fallen pregnant naturally after this long or should this be cause for concern?
Thanks!

I'd say it's frustrating but not cause for concern yet. The average healthy couple in your age bracket can take up to 12 months to conceive so I wouldn't panic. If you still haven't fallen by the end of the year then you could go to your GP for some investigation at that point.

Fingers crossed you get your BFP soon 🤞🏼 x

I've got no help or advice but wanted to let you know we're in the same boat.... We got pregnant twice very quickly, unfortunately they both ended as missed miscarriages which we found out at the 12week scans.

We're currently on month 10 with no joy so I really do feel your pain!! It's not easy but you're not alone 🥰

Hugs. We have been trying since January too. Never been pregnant before. I am starting to worry we have a problem too. I get so upset when AF turns up even though I just expect it every month now. Be reassured you're not alone. If I'm not pregnant in October I am going to the GP x

Completely understand. I'm in the same boat too. Started trying in February but as I have a short cycle, it's been 8 attempts. It's very disheartening and frustrating but I've been told it's normal and no cause for concern at this stage. My AF arrived today 😥 but remaining positive as going to start trying acupuncture from next month!!

I’m sorry that lots of you are in the same situation but also comforted by it (as awful as that sounds). Everyone around me has fallen pregnant I’m the 3 month timescale which doesn’t help me; I’m also from a very fertile family of twins and triplets (on both my husband and I sides) so my hopes were far to high to start with! I hope we all get good news soon 😘

best of luck for cycle 10 @blueym Smile

Girls
I felt exactly like you do, it took me 10 months on my first. It was so horrible when AF came and SIL was expecting too. Very hard..... but then when I least expected it as was so busy and excited for my SIL baby to be born that I fell pregnant. I know it’s really hard , but try your best to relax and take your mind off it.

Now on cycle 3 TTC and CD 27 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Thank you @kwazycupcakes, same to you 🤞
Thank you @Sardi28, it really helps to hear positive stories. I have been very relaxed the last few cycles, but now all of a sudden it’s all I can think about and is driving me a bit mad! I wish you all the luck with no.2 😘
