Still TTC after 12 months+

[MrsLBear]

Hi ladies 👋🏼
Wondering if anyone wants to join me.
Been TTC technically since June 2018. And still here. Had a mmc last February and not a sniff of a line since.
Started using clear blue digital opks again this cycle but when my smiley face day came I had the worst cold/flu so most probably missed the boat. Last DTD 3 days before that.
Anyone else losing the will to live?!
Baby dust to all!!

Same here. Started trying in 2018, had a miscarriage in January 2019 (found out this day last year) and started trying again when my cycle got back to normal last April. Not a hint of anything since.

We’ve both had tests done privately and everything looks fine, but I think I need to start thinking about IVF as I’ve just turned 37.

Sorry to hear about your miscarriage @Dbrook. The first of the dates are always a horrible reminder.

Do you use opks etc?
Hope you don't mind me asking. Were the tests expensive? I feel like that's our next step. I don't think a gp would do much due to previous pregnancy.

We did one of those Fertility MOTs which was about £450 I think? It included an ultrasound and follicle count / AMH test for me and sperm tests for my husband.

Prior to that my GP agreed to run a range of blood tests for me on the NHS. I’m not sure how much they would cost if done privately.

I do use OPKs (the clear blue digital) and almost always get a peak reading, as well as other signs of ovulation like ewcm. But still not getting pregnant.
